(More customer reviews)My grandparents have bought my 2.5 year old son the hess truck for the past 3 christmases, so of course this year he got the new Hess Monster Truck. The truck is cool looking, great "chrome" accents, with flames on the hood. It rolls very well and lights up. It's built fairly sturdy and should stand up to quite a bit of play as our other hess trucks have. This one has less parts sticking out or moveable than the last two years, which were the biggest problems - we had some things pop off of those.
My biggest peeve with this truck and previous years and the reason I give this toy only 3 stars is that the switch on the bottom is only able to be set to lights "ON", "OFF" or "Flashing" - no young child is going to shut the lights off after using it, so the batteries wear out almost immediately, since I'm not going to run through infinite batteries for the sake of some lights, the lights are pretty useless. This was the same with the previous hess vehicles - after the batteries ran out the first time, I didn't bother to replace. More ideally, the truck should have a button on top which the child presses to turn on the lights for a set amount of time, then have them automatically turn off.
Also, for the price, the toy is missing at least one small sound effect in my opinion, a button which makes an engine noise would have been nice. For the same price, I can get cars that do much more. My son certainly likes it, but it doesn't hold his attention as much as his other vehicles do.
