Futuristic Design and Performance

The Bump 'n' Chuck Bumper Cars have a sleek, aerodynamic design that adds to the intensity of their races. This look begins with the drivers. Each driver is seated in a color-coded car (orange or blue), and wears a black full-body suit with an orange or blue helmet, gloves, and shoes.

Each remote controller has two different levers--the left side controls the movement of the car, and the right side controls the movement of the working fans on the back of each car. The joystick abilities on each remote controller are fairly sensitive, giving players strong control over the direction and agility of their cars. Functioning, manipulable fan vents give the illusion that the cars are actually powered by wind.

Bump the Cars to Eject Your Opponent

Each of the round cars has a set of two orange or blue buttons on either side. The object of the bumper car game is for the players to bump their opponent's buttons to send the drivers flying from their seats.

Once the buttons are bumped, a driver is ejected from the car seat and a sound chip is activated. The car sounds a cackling cry to announce that there is a victor in the game!

What's in the Box

Two bumper cars, two remote controllers, two drivers, and instructions.

This review is from: Kid Galaxy RC Bump 'n Chuck Bumper Cars (Toy)

We received these last Christmas and by the end of an afternoon there were major problems - a motor problem with one car and a broken peg under one of the drivers and some odd radio glitches. I called Kid Galaxy the next morning and received fantastic treatment. I explained that the item was a gift and I didn't have a receipt and the representative I spoke with assured me that they would make things right. Within a couple of days I had a box show up at my house containing a brand new set!

The new set was different colors (black & red vs the blue & orange)and I immediately notice that the little peg under the drivers appeared to be totally redesigned (more robust).

We inserted the batteries and have never had ANY more problems (aside from replacing batteries) over the last 11months (we were playing with them yesterday).

Hopefully there are no more early revisions floating around out there but even so given my experience with Kid Galaxy I'd definitely buy these again.

When using these make sure that you have an open area to drive them around in- they turn VERY quickly and it can take a while for the kids to get the hang of the controls.

This is a really great and fun toy. My kids love it and keep playing with it. Even after Christmas, this is one they come back too many times.
Even adults will enjoy this toy and play it with their child!

You could hear the laughter of the kids from miles around as they enjoyed this toy. And we couldn't wait until they went to bed to try it! The remote control Space Bumper Cars were perfect for our 5 and 4 year old. The cars could speed over floors as well as carpet. It takes a while to understand the remote but it didn't stop the kids from having a blast.
