Sturdy Plastic with Streamlined Design
Made of durable plastic, the ATV is big enough to stand up to rough play, yet small enough to store away easily when playtime is over. With only three major parts -- the ATV, headset, and remote control -- it's straightforward for such a sophisticated toy. Younger children might need help adjusting the headset for optimum viewing of the video feed. Also, parents will need to use a screwdriver to install and replace the 12 "AA" batteries (not included). Hours of spying fun
The ATV looks rugged and tough, with its heavy black tread and thin antennae. A video camera mounted to the front transmits a video feed to a monitor in the headset while a sound sensor on the top of the ATV sends audio through an earbud. Children can drive the ATV around corners and under furniture, while simultaneously seeing and hearing what the vehicle does. Its big tires lets it climb easily over obstacles -- like dirty laundry. The video and audio worked flawlessly when we tested them, although we found the video a little hard to see. It took a little trial and error to figure out how to get the vehicle to go where we wished, but we think kids who have experience driving remote control cars will pick it up quickly. With a little practice, kids will be proficient with this entertaining toy. What's in the Box

I had reservations about purchasing this when my son intially brought it up...how often have you seen these type toys fail to deliver on how they are advertised to perform? Not the case here! The camera actually works, the remote control function performs at an acceptable distance, and around walls and corners. My son loves it!

My 9yo son had asked for this ATV for months and months and I finally found a great deal on Amazon because I could not afford the original asking price nor the price at the local "Mart" store. Amazon had an awesome Black Friday deal and I purchased it hoping my son wouldn't be disappointed with the quality. He loves playing with it and drives it all over the house checking-out what is going on! It moves well over all "terrains" of the house (hard wood, carpet, linoleum) and responds well to the control buttons. The 360 degree scan button makes the ATV do a complete circle to view the room quickly and both of my sons love that feature. When I asked him if there was anything he'd make better about the toy, he said he would change the view finder from black and white to color, but that is not a reason that either one of us would return the toy. I'm happy because he likes it and I got a great deal. The only other down-side is that it takes 12 batteries, but we use rechargeables, so that isn't a huge problem for me, but may be for some. We have only had it for one month, so I cannot accurately reply to the question of durability, but so far, so good. All in all, a fun toy.

The seller had great service and the toy was recieved very quickly. Upon opening though, there was unusual "knocking" sounds coming from inside the toy. Looks like the toy was damaged, but since it was a christmas present and I really couldn't send it back since my kid wanted to play with it, I was able to fix myself instead of send back.
nice but...... January 30, 2010

I purchased this toy for my 8 1/2 year old grandson for Christmas.
He liked it initially but lost interest as the sound pick up did not work
at all. It was just static, and the visual aspect was not very clear.
It appears to be just a very expensive manually controlled battery car.
If I had known this I would not have spent almost $250.00 with tax
and shipping and would not recommend this toy. It is worth about $60.00.
