Creeper is blast
on January 1, 2025
Posted by: Rachel Z
from Cincinnati, Ohio
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This exploding remote control Creeper is fun. There are some things that we found to be a bit difficult. The head is easy to put on but you have to make sure that is on and on the correct way, where the face is on the same side as the toenails. Otherwise the explosion becomes random and does not happen every time you push the action button on the remote. The explosion particles are a fun idea but not really necessary. They fall out rather than fly out when it explodes, like a waterfall instead of a blast. And they are made of heavy card stock so they will be durable but not lasting long term. It’s very hard for kids to keep their hands steady enough for them to gingerly place the particles on the shelves inside the Creeper body. It doesn’t run on carpet but it really doesn’t need to. It runs very well on wood, tile, or linoleum floors. I really like that there wasn’t any sticker decals to put on it. The face and feet already have their details.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fun with Details & Speed but Noisy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Minecraft Exploding Creeper is fun but does not hold the interest of my 9 year old son for very long. The anticipation of the toy itself was much higher than the excitement after 10 minutes of playtime. The interaction is very realistic, especially for children who have played "survival" mode in the Minecraft game. It has the added fun of having "gun powder" inside when it explodes, which is once again realistic to the game and a "crafting" item. Assembly is quick and straightforward and reassembling after the creeper "explodes" is also very simple.
One downfall is that the creeper is very loud when moving around, so there is no "creeping". The remote has forward and then a backwards-turn. The creepers legs move realistically when you move it and it is very fast, which is fun to play with. You can choose to begin the explosion and stop by releasing your hold on the button. If you continue pressing it, it will "explode" and the "gunpowder" cardboard pieces fall out, as the head "pops" off. The remote is also in the design of the blocks you would use in Minecraft, which is a fun added detail.
All in all this is a fun toy, it just doesn't hold the attention of my 9 year old boy for very long.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Tons of fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids *loved* this toy so much! I got it for my son, who's a Minecraft fan. He loved that you could make the Creeper explode and he did it over and over and over again. It was a really fun feature! The lights and sounds added more to that fun and my son enjoyed "scaring" his siblings by making the Creeper hiss at them. The controller was really easy to use and figure out and has held up to repeated drops. The Creeper itself was really easy to put together and my son had no issues putting it together itself. The little smoke squares that fly out of the Creeper when it explodes were a really fun additional element. My only very minor complaint is that it would be even better if the squares were made out of a more durable material. Some of ours got damaged pretty quickly. Overall, this Exploding RC Creeper was so much fun for my son and even his siblings and parents! :)

Such a great gift for a 6 year old little boy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son actually asked for this toy for Christmas so I was very pleased when it was an option for my test item. This item is very sturdy and well made. The remote control is small and easy to use for kids with small hands. The creeper comes with "particles" that come out of the head of the creeper when it explodes. The "particles" are just small pieces of paper that needs to be loaded into the head. My 6 year old son was able to load these "particles" with no difficulty after being shown once or twice. The creeper does well on carpet or uncarpeted surfaces.

Minecraft Brought to Our Driveway!
on January 6, 2025
Posted by: Lalat
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 8-year-old son is a huge fan of Minecraft and was super excited to get this! He especially loved the explosion function and the hissing sound effect that precedes it, though I personally found the hissing to be a bit loud and grating. The toy also quickly became difficult to close after exploding, and would stop exploding without a physical nudge to accompany the button press. I’m not sure if that is from wear and tear, but we had only used it for a few minutes before it became a consistent problem. Our son also didn’t care much for the controls, which only go straight forward or backwards at an angle to “turn”, though he warmed up to them. Lastly, the creeper did have trouble navigating bumps, so be sure to use it on smooth surfaces!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Minecraft lovers will love this toy. the remote is even on theme. the right side controls the creeper and the left side button will make it explode. the particles that fly out are cardboard, I do wish they were some type of thin plastic or something else so they can last. it's also a little loud when rolling around. however, this is a fun toy and the kids love it!

Fun for a short time

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 5 year old son saw this and in his words "just had to have it." The exploding part is what really got his attention. The things that "explode" out of the head are just little thin cardboard pieces. It is easy for my son to put the pieces in and put the head back on.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for the Minecraft lovers in your life!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a big Minecraft fan in this house and he loves this toy! My boys love to challenge each other with all the remote control items in the house! My youngest has commandeered the head and hidden it somewhere. That’s the only downside to this item it is easy to misplace if you have littles in your house. It has really sturdy wheels and gets around well on carpet and laminate or tile! The sound effects are a lot of fun as well. I would definitely recommend this toy if your kiddos enjoy Minecraft.
