For most boys, Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without getting at least one vehicle related toy. Monster trucks take vehicle play to a whole new level and the Crushasaurus Monster truck from Toy State is a whole level cooler than your standard monster truck. The Crushasaurus is aimed at kids ages 4+ .The front of the truck has a cool face with big sharp teeth and red eyes that light up green when turned on. The front wheels have paws with claws on them and the back of the truck has a tail. There are two buttons on top of the truck . One causes the truck to propel forward and the other makes the truck speak and light up.
In addition to the button controls, it also comes with a basic remote control as well. The remote is claw shaped and has three buttons, two of which can be pushed in front or in back so there are 5 different actions that can be preformed with the 3 buttons. I like how the remote only has a few buttons so it’s simple for the younger kids to control. Using the remote you can make the truck go in just about any way you desire, including a full 360 degree spin. My nephews all thought that the Crushasaurus was really cool. Even though it says 4+, my 2 year old nephew thought it was awesome as well. I didn’t have him try the remote but he was happy to play with it just using the buttons alone which is a great mode of play for little ones who don’t have the fine motor skills to control the remote. The only downside to this toy is how it requires 6 AA batteries to run the truck (3 are included) and 3 AAA batteries to control the remote.

My son would LOVE this! He would really be psyched to see that under the tree.

Now this is something my son would ask Santa for if he knew it existed! So awesome. I might have to get it for his birthday in February. For now we’re all done with Christmas gifts.

I like that the remote is simple. Those complicated remotes usually frustrate the younger ones too much and end up broken!

That looks like a toy a boy would love to find under the Christmas tree. Personally not into Monster trucks because of the noise but they look really cool and I can understand why people get so into it.
This is so cool, the boys must have had a blast trying it out
