Review: Have bought two "halfpipes". One from a toy store and one from desertcart, both worked for a minute then the motor went haywire and it wouldn't flip over anymore. Too bad, these are a cute robot series, we have the rest of them and they are neat. Review: Unfortunately I couldn’t recommend this item. We had one bought as a gift that broke within minutes. I thought I had broken it so bought a replacement and this also broke within minutes. Have contacted the company and so far no response… it was cool for the minute that it worked! ## Features - Fast and easy to build - Demonstrates wheels, cams, and motors in action - Powered by an electric motor - Combine the parts from different ReBotz kits to build your own creations. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08V17W4V5 | | Assembly Required | Yes | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | Yes | | Best Sellers Rank | #161,120 in Toys ( See Top 100 in Toys ) #314 in Toy Robots #6,042 in Novelty & Gag Toys | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (101) | | Date First Available | 25 January 2021 | | Educational Objective(s) | Creative Skills | | Item model number | 552003 | | Language | English | | Manufacturer recommended age | 6 - 15 years | | Material Type(s) | Plastic | | Number of Puzzle Pieces | 13 | | Product Dimensions | 10.16 x 9.65 x 10.16 cm; 170 g | | Remote Control Included? | No | | Remote Control Type | Not Available | | tech_spec_battery_description_toys | Batteries | ## Images ![Thames & Kosmos and | 552003 | Halfpipe - The Shredding Skater Robot | Ages 6+ - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71vhSTcupoL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What size batteries are required?** A: To operate the model, you will need three AAA (1.5-volt, LR03) batteries. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Review *by L***5 on 17 August 2023* Have bought two "halfpipes".
