TimetoPlayMag.com Ratings and Reviews
At TimetoPlayMag.com, we want to engage, inform and entertain our readers to give them the benefit of our knowledge, experience and the breadth of products we cover. We look at more than 10,000 new toys and children’s products every year, and our primary purpose is to help you make the best choices for the kids in your life.
Our goal is to give you the real story on what you’ll find when you bring a toy home. And we know that every kid and every family is different. That’s why we always say: “The hot toy is only hot if it’s hot for your child.”
Our editorial team has more than 100 years combined experience working in the toy industry. Our rating system ranks toys on 4 key criteria:
- Fun — Does it engage the child? Does it inspire imaginative play? Does it contribute to creative expression? Is it entertaining?
- Repeat Play OR Collectibility — Some toys are played with, some are collected. If we feel a toy is better suited for collectibility, we’ll rank it based on Collectibility instead of Repeat Play.
- Repeat Play — Will kids come back to it over time? Does the toy allow diverse imaginative play experiences? Does it provide longer-term play value?
- Collectibility — Some toys may have limited traditional play, but kids will treasure them as collectibles.
- Assembly/Instructions — Is the toy easy to assemble? Are the instructions clear?
Over the years we’ve learned a lot about what makes great toys and exciting play experiences. We want to help you create the best experiences for your kids and your family.
Ultimately, you’re the best judge of what you want to bring into your home — and what’s best for your kids. And because you’re an important part of the Time to Play family, we invite you to let us know if you ever find an error or have any ideas how we can better help you. After all, we exist for one reason: to help you have more fun!
What It Is
Hot Wheels R/C Nitro Speeders are very small remote-control cars. Each two-inch long car fits inside its carrying case, which is also the remote control and charger. It takes about 25 minutes to fully charge the car, and once charged it goes from 0—600 miles per hour in less than one second. (That's in scale speed, mind you.) Nitro Speeders are micro-chip programmed for precision steering, so kids can make high-speed turns. When the race is over, place the car in its case and put the case in a pocket to take with you. The cars are available in Chevy Camaro, Ken Block Ford Fiesta, and Ford Mustang GT.
Why It’s Fun
Anyone who's a fan of R/C cars is going to be fascinated and intrigued by this new, tiny take on R/C. Nitro Speeders are small, super fast, and cool to collect. With their size and carry case, Nitro Speeders are easy to take on the go for racing fun anywhere. We're not sure why, but the combination of miniaturization and high performance is consistently appealing, and on that score, these cars will not disappoint.
Who It’s For
Nitro Speeders are for ages 8 and up.
What to Be Aware of
Each Nitro Speeder comes with a LiPo battery. The remote control requires four AA batteries, which are not included.
