Title: Disappointed in Tyco! (m)
Review: I had always thought of Tyco as the "gold standard" of R/C vehicles. My son had an old Tyco (Rebound, I think) that was handed down from a friend. That thing took years of abuse before the remote antenna got broken off. The car would still be working today if that hadn't happened!So I was looking for another RC car for my 8 year old. We've tried several others, but none measured up to the Rebound. I THOUGHT this one would be it. I had reservations about the $90 price tag ($60 for the vehicle and $30 for the battery...SHAME!). But this thing is TERRIBLE! Shame on Tyco! Initially, the movement was awkward, thanks to the hard plastic exterior (no rubber wheels) and the flopping "tail". But I thought that the shape-shifting feature would make up for it. WRONG! It changed shape maybe 3 times before the gears apparently broke.I took that thing back to the store for a refund and I'll think twice before buying another Tyco!
Is the review positive or negative?
