Remote Control Tank RC Tank - German Tiger I Panzer, Battery, Light, Sound, Rotating Turret and Recoil Action When Cannon Artillery Shoots, Mini 1:72 Scale, Assorted Color

Fun to use with figurines also

I purchased the BlueFit German Tiger I Panzer Tank with Remote Control, Battery, Light, Sound, Rotating Turret and Recoil Action When Cannon Artillery Shoots, Mini 1:72 Scale, Assorted Color as a Christmas gift for my ten-yr-old son. This is a very small tank (dimensions 3.5 x 2 x 1.6 inches). It fits in the palm of my hand. My son loves it! You can make it run very fast, spin, make a shooting noise, and it recoils backward when it shoots. I was surprised at how fast it goes. The detail is very good on a toy tank this size! It was packaged nicely in a clear container box, which displays well. I was annoyed that you need a tiny screwdriver to get the tank unscrewed completely out of the package (I HATE IT WHEN THEY DO THAT WITH TOYS UGH) but it probably kept it from shifting a lot and getting broken during shipment. The tank is small enough and delicate enough that I think it would break easily. However, it's also a great deal of fun. The remote needs 4 double A batteries (not included) and the tank itself is rechargeable. It says in the product description that it takes 15 minutes to charge and then has an hour of run time. That sounds about right, based on our experience so far. The speed of the tank makes it pretty difficult to control, so I would say this toy might be frustrating to attempt to steer and too easily broken for some younger children. However, the speed makes it exciting. My son has slammed it into quite a few things while trying to master the steering but happily, the tank is still functioning (so far). This is definitely not an outside toy. I doubt it would last long on dirt, grass, or rocks. We use it on the carpeted floor inside the house. I wouldn't even attempt outside. I think this is the kind of detailed model that is geared more toward teens and adults. If you get it for a younger child, I wouldn't expect it to hold up for a long time with heavy use, outdoors, or rough handling. I paid about $25 for it and I expect it to break fairly soon, but we've definitely gotten our money's worth in fun. Overall, I would purchase this toy again. It was shipped promptly, was just as described by the seller, works without problems, and is a lot of fun. My son absolutely loves the tank and we have all enjoyed it. I'm very happy with my purchase.

The media could not be loaded. Lasted for less than a week. It now only turns one way so now it’s not drivable because it goes in circles. Disappointed. When looking underneath, can see one side of the belt working. Not worth the money. See video.

I would have given this toy a 5 star but the tank just goes to fast for a tank, I know that may sound funny but I like my tank to climb over things and plow thru stuff. You know, what tanks do. This is great if you want to race someone but dont get it if you want a tank that runs like a tank should.The is also a button for another speed but its even faster. Im going to keep it because it does look nice and it does work.In closing I would just say buy it if you want a really fast tank that runs like a race car.

Just got this a couple days ago and the cat has been having no end of fun with it! :-DMy cat gets bored with toys quickly so I wanted something that I control so it'd have a better chance of keeping his attention. And boy does this fit the bill! Works on carpet or hardwood, goes fast or slow, and has a very good range for such a small thing (10 to 15 feet). And it's a tank so it can go over (small) things.It makes surprisingly realistic tank driving sounds (or you can turn the sound off) so when it's out of site (behind or under something) the cat still knows it's running around.Sometimes I'll drive it right up to the cat and let it sit there, and as Kitty is staring at it, I spin the turret around and around and it always surprises Kitty and he bats at it. I have pieces of tissue paper on the floor (cat loves em) so I'll drive the tank under the tissue paper and Kitty thinks his tissue paper has suddenly come alive!! lol Of course the cat loves to stalk it, especially when it goes 'behind' something or under a dining table full of chair legs (which is where the controllability comes in). :)It came pre-charged and that charge from the factory lasted for 15 minutes of solid use, so I imagine a full charge will last even longer. Took me about 20 minutes to fully charge it. The controller takes 4 AA batteries and then you recharge the tank from the controller.All in all, a FUN little toy and a GREAT cat toy! :-D

This littlt Tiger I model is amazingly well made and full-featured for the price. And, it arrived better packed than most far more expensive items.It has just one major fault, but that is a serious one. Yhe speed and rotation rate are far, far too high. On the lower rate setting (it makes little difference) the scale speed is about 150 mph. The Tiger I max speed was less than 30 mph. I can find no way to make it go any slower. The rotation rate for the tank is about 270 degrees per second - ABSURD! It is impossible to guide this model over any path or point it in any direction.If slowed by a factor of five this would get five (or more) stars.

Hard to believe so many features in a small unit. Very sturdy construction, fine detail. We beat the heck out of the two that I purchased. Grandkids drove them of the coffee table on too a hard floor multiple times and no damage. Very durable and fun to play with even as an adult. Only complaint is that they are a litte to fast.
