Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
My son has been begging for a radio controlled toy for some time now. We finally settled on this r/c Scoop. It was a *little* tricky to get out of the box. You need a long phillip's head screwdriver, which is a little irritating as most of our screwdrivers are of the interchangable head variety - sometimes these are a little too fat to get into deeply recessed screws. I ended up using my husband's swiss army knife because I couldn't find our regular phillip's head screwdriver, and this made it a little tricky. Still, I have encountered worse packaging. Fisher Price, of course, takes the cake for making things impossible to remove from the package- this was a walk in the park compared to some of their toys. The directions for removal are right on the bottom of the box. I can't figure out follow-me mode. All Scoop seems to do is spin in circles and run into things. The first day we had this toy, my son switched it to follow-me mode (without my knowledge) and then was complaining that "Scoop can't go straight." Sure enough he was spinning merrily despite pushing the straight button and I spent a good 5 minutes trying to figure out what had his wheel jammed up, before realizing the problem was my son had moved Bob's switch from B to A. (You change modes with a switch on Bob's head) Despite this, my son seems to get a good bit of enjoyment out of this toy. It's simple enough for this age range and tough enough to handle being run into walls, which is an essential requirement for any toy. Most Bob-o-philes will probably enjoy it. My chief complaint is I wish there were some means of turning it with a specific purpose. Basically it goes straight and spins in circles. You can get it spinning and try to make it end up pointing the way you want it to turn, but it's tricky-ish.
