Monster Smash-Ups Remote Control Truck – Review & Giveaway

4th November 2017 By Susan Mann 169 Comments

Monster Smash-Ups

Who isn’t a fan of remote control cars and with Monster Smash-Ups you can literally crash, smash this up and rebuild, it’s so much fun. There is no need to be delicate and careful with this toy, it’s all about the fun, fun, fun and we love it!

Monster Smash-Up Items

Inside the Monster Smash-Ups come with the truck, charger, remote control, instructions, stickers to customise your car and obstacles for your car to crash into. The remote control needs AA batteries, which are not included. The truck itself is charged via the USB. It takes around 90 minutes for a full charge, but you get loads of play with the charge. There are 4 cones with flags, you can use them to drive around or as start and finish lines, that my boys used them for. There are so many possibilities.

Monster Smash-up Car

The Monster Smash-Ups Truck is a chunky style of car, it’s fab. You can see in the photo above how it comes apart. It is simple to put back together. The front and the back and the wee guy that goes on top. It fits in together in a block style. Anyone can do it. It’s bright and the stickers allow for your own customisation of your car. This one is Viper. I do love the red colour of this particular one. I think it looks striking and great fun.

Monster Smash-Ups Crash

The remote allows the cars to build up speed, drive around their obstacles or crash into the wall. The boys loved driving it around and when the little driver was ejected from the seat, it gave no end of amusement. The boys loved building the truck back up and crash it into bits and build it back up again. There was so much giggling as the car crashes and the driver flies through the air. The remote control works with the two joysticks, so it’s not too complicated to use.

Monster Smash-Ups

We think this is a brilliant toy, it is so much fun and simple to use. It comes apart when it crashes but goes back together easily. It’s sturdy, well made and with an RRP of £24.99 it is a good price for a gift. The batteries last, especially as the truck is charged via USB. I find it refreshing and the charge lasts for ages. The Monster Truck Smash-ups (affiliate link) is a great source of amusement and the kids will love watching it fall apart, even better if you have two, to smash against each other. When the bumper of the car hits the wall, this activates the ejection of the drive, who flies through the air. Thankfully, he’s wearing a crash helmet. Safety first. This toy is fun and simple, perfect for kids. The truck comes in three different styles, Viper, Speedy Raging Raptor and Powerful Rowdy Rhino. Which one is your favourite?
