My 5 year old loves this!
My son got this truck for his 5th birthday. So far, it seems to be durable. It does everything it's supposed to do (as seen on TV...). It has a ton of phrases and voice interaction- "Make a sound if you want me to dance". The price seems to be worth it. I would definitely recommend this truck to anyone looking for a fun toy for a boy (or girl)!

Son ignored it after 10 min
My 3.5 r old son just got this for the holidays. I thought it would be a big hit, but I was very wrong. He's not impressed with it's robot actions - the only one he likes is the dumping action. He then got his finger caught between the wheel and the wheel "flap?" (the rounded cover over the wheel) and could not get it out (my prediction - recall). Once we extricated...

Great fun!, October 7, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
I got this toy for my 5 year old but my 3 year old and 10 year old love it. It does a ton of different stuff, looks cool, and even though my boys have been given it a go - it has held up great. Seriously, a great gift or something for the kids. You won't be disappointed.

BEWARE OF THE PACKAGING, November 27, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
I wanted to write a review on this product as a warning to everyone. We ordered this truck as a present for my 4-year old's birthday, upon careful inspection of the truck itself he really does enjoy it. BUT BEWARE OF THE PACKAGING!!! This is why, In trying to remove the toy from the box, I first took the tape off of the lid and opened the box, next I'm trying to get the piece of cardboard the truck is tied to out of the outside cardboard box (which of course is also taped together#. Upon finally getting the boxes separated I find on the bottom of the outside box #so it was in between the outside cardboard box and the piece of cardboard the truck actually sits on and is tied to) right along with the directions is a spring loaded box cutter (RAZOR BLADE AND ALL!). If I had opened the box from the bottom instead of the top) it would have been the first thing I had in my hands. The UPC code is 0027084740684, MFG PART 0002708474068, ALT SKU WI 8625, on the box cutter it says "MATOR-HANDY INDX #444, SOLINGEN GERMANY", P4458 is printed above the UPC, 23990F is the number actually pressed into the bottom of the box under the UPC. I would recommend that everyone open the bottom and potentially the top of the box and just make sure there's nothing extra in the packaging before wrapping it up and leaving your child to open it on his or her own on Christmas morning.

My 3-year old LOVES this truck!, November 6, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This is such a neat toy! It does everything you see in the commercial and has held up very well to some rough play. It dances, moves around and talks, and my 3-year old thinks it's the coolest truck in the world. His favorite part is when the truck stands up on its hind wheels and dances. It is a little more pricey here on this site (more reasonable locally) but seeing the joy in my son's face as he explores this robot truck has made it all worthwhile. Highly recommended!

Son ignored it after 10 min, December 15, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
My 3.5 r old son just got this for the holidays. I thought it would be a big hit, but I was very wrong. He's not impressed with it's robot actions - the only one he likes is the dumping action. He then got his finger caught between the wheel and the wheel "flap?" (the rounded cover over the wheel) and could not get it out (my prediction - recall). Once we extricated him he turned it off and tried to play with it like a regular dump truck but even gave up on that because you have to fight the mechanics to do so - since it's motorized there is resistance when you try to move pieces manually since they're meant to be moved by a motor. I should have just gotten him an old school tonka dump truck for a lot less money and he would have been much happier. He has already told me that we can give this one "to charity for kids who don't have toys." I'm all for charity, but the $50 new toy was not my next planned donation....
I see reviews where kids like it but it's not for my kid. He'd rather move a truck around himself so he can go as fast/slow as he wants and control what it's doing and crash it without worrying if it's going to break. In his own words, he wants "a real dump truck toy."

WHY WOULD YOU BUY THIS FROM AMAZON, November 13, 2009
Fun:
The toy is great, I think it's cute but why would anyone buy this toy from amazon when you can get it cheaper at a store.

HOW COOL!, October 28, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
Bought this for my 5 year old nephew for Christmas and I think he is going to love it. I played with it and ROCKY is so cool and talks very clear. Just ordered it yesterday and recieved it today; so don't know how durable it will be but it seems to be very well made. Don't believe I will regret getting this one, such a fun toy.

cute truck but lacking on fun factor for my son, May 16, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
I ordered this truck for my son's 2nd birthday as he is really into trucks and it seemed that it would make a good replacement for the Elmo Live doll that was not very durable. It looks cute and dances and talks just like the commercials, but for some reason my son and some of his older friends just don't have any interest in it. It is a little loud and awkward when it moves, so maybe he is scared of it. For the money, I'm disappointed, but have hopes that this cool dumptruck will be more interesting when he gets older.

True frustration free packaging, February 5, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: MATCHBOX Rocky the Robot Truck - Deluxe Rocky [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] (Toy)
This item arrived in a timely manner.All it took to free this toy from the box was something to break the tape. My active 3 year old boy enjoys this toy. We have to monitor him closely,this truck was made more for a "hands off" kind of kid,who doesn't have the urge to drive or control Rocky. I will say in the 2 months we have had the toy and have not had any problems or broke any pieces.

A great Boy Toy!, February 1, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: MATCHBOX Rocky the Robot Truck - Deluxe Rocky [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] (Toy)
First of all, <3 the Amazon Frustration-Free packaging!! I hope all the toys come like that soon!
My 3YO son loves his Rocky the Robot! All the kids love it, and the adults love watching the kids play with it. They dance with him, talk to him, and can play with it like a regular old dump truck. Very happy I purchased it for a Christmas gift. Plus, I was pumped to get it at Amazon's great price.
