BlueFit 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

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.

Just got this a couple days ago and the cat has been having no end of fun with it! :-D My 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 tank is awesome! My four year old loves all things army men and he loves this! It makes all the noises a little kid could want. The functions are awesome, I expected forward and reverse for a tank but it turns on a dime. The top piece swivels and turns and it has an artillery button that has a little recoil action. It’s darling. It is small but I knew that purchasing it. My son absolutely loves it!

Okay, so please note that this thing is small. It will fit in the palm of your hand. I knew that before i bought it but was concerned that it might not do well with my 8 year old rowdy son. I have been pleasantly surprised - all my kids (12, 10, 8 and 6) pick it up and drive it around the house in addition to random friends who come over. It's a lot of fun and makes noise and rotates the guns on top as well as driving around.

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.

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.

Got this as a gift for my daughter’s 10 year old friend who loves history. Warning: It. Is. TINY! However, it’s friggin’ remote control and he flipped out over it. It looks like a real tank and has a bunch of features that make it move various ways. Despite my disappointment with the size, kids like mini things as well. Based on his reaction, it was a hit!

Looks exactly as advertised. Has a good battery. The treads are little plastic pieces that are kept together with a piece of string that protrudes through the links so it can be annoying having to see little white bits in between the black links. I painted mine since they don’t let you choose the color you want and I got the blue one I didn’t want. The problem I have with this tank is that the turret stopped spinning out of nowhere and I’ve tried addressing this issue by charging it and making sure the remote control had fresh batteries but the turret still won’t turn at all so it’s broken and I’ve only had it for about four months and I’m not rough with it at all. What sucks is that I can longer receive any support from this seller since their service policy expired last month for me so I’m stuck with this broken thing and can’t do anything about it aside from warning everyone else about it. It’s also made in China if that sets off any red flags for anyone.
