Easter Gift Idea - Road Rippers from Toy State



When it comes to toy cars, Toy State really knows what they're doing. Their newest additions, the  Road Rippers Wheelie Bikes, Wheelie Power Trucks, and Come Back Racers are, according to my nine year old son, "the coolest cars ever."  We have had several different types of toy cars in the past so we have plenty of experience, and  the Road Rippers are definitely a cut above the rest. To start with, they look like a miniature version of a real thing. From the tiny rear view mirrors to the company insignia designs, the details on these miniature vehicles is amazing. But that is only the beginning of what they have to offer. Here is a video of two of my kids having a blast with the race car.


When we got our Road Rippers to try out, my son couldn't wait to get started.  The Road Rippers are so much fun. We received a bike, truck and race car. They can do some amazing things like move forward and pop wheelies. They also make lots of cool car sounds, and even play music with just a press of a button. The vehicles can run on both carpet and hard floors so kids can play in any room of the house or outside on the cement.  But these are not remote control cars. They run by pressing buttons, which I think is a much better idea for younger kids. There are no complicated controls or worrying about getting caught it corners. You must press the button and watch you car, trucks or bikes fly like the wind.  If you have any young boys on your Easter list this year, this is a great choice for a gift. Its fun, affordable and will provide hours of endless entertainment.


In addition to the Road Rippers, Toy State has plenty of other fun toys for the kids including remote control cars, Cat Preschool Trucks and so much more.  Also make sure to check out the My Motor Island website for lots of interactive games that are fun and free to play. If you would like to purchase Road Rippers, they are available in stores nationwide including Kmart and Target. To find a location near you, you can visit their website.  To keep up with the latest promotions, be sure to follow them on twitter or become their fan on face book.  When it comes to Easter shopping, Toy State is one company that you really shouldn't pass by.
