Excellent product, well packaged and promptly delivered. Would highly recommend. Had hours of fun constructing and decorating with my son. Great fun driving it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We love our Monster Beetle!
*by M***T on 28 July 2017*

This is tough as anything and handles pretty well. My 5 year old has taken over this now - and it's seen a massive amount of abuse, but never breaks and never gives up. The bodyshell is in a bit of a state, but the rest of it is brilliant. With a LiPO battery it lasts for ages - really ages and is so much fun down at the beach. We love it.
