 The
PT-808 Maisto Street Troopers
Radio Controlled Vehicle provides a
twist on the remote controlled car that
will thrill kids 8 years old and up. In
addition to the usual driving around,
the Street Troopers PT-808 can transform
into a robot at the push of a button and
shoot missiles at the enemy.
The PT-808 Street Troopers is an
aggressive looking car with a black and
red color scheme and guns on its side
that is slightly reminiscent of the
Batmobile. The design will appeal to
young boys who will enjoy simply racing
the car around. The vehicle has a nice
heft to it, but because it also
transforms into a robot, it has more
moving parts than the average
radio-controlled car. While it did not
break during our testing, we found it a
bit more delicate than the average
remote controlled vehicle. For the added
fun of being able to transform, however,
we found this to be a worthwhile
tradeoff.
In order to get the car moving, the
PT-808 requires six AA batteries for the
car and a 9V for the remote control.
Please note that a Phillips screwdriver
is needed to remove the battery cover.
