The Giz Wiz, Week of Oct 9th 2014, Show # 1489

From the Time To Play Holiday Toy Spectacular, the Kid Trax Kia Soul Sing-Along DJ Ride-On Car. 

OMG, if I were a kid, I would think this was amazing. Hey, I'm an adult and I still love it. A kid can drive up to five mph in forward and reverse, but the parent can set the top speed for 2.5 mph if they want. There are real engine and horn sounds and working car doors. (Fortunately your kid probably won't face the frustration of trying to park this baby, except maybe in the bedroom!) Parents will probably also want to supervise this: There are two mega loud speakers with colored LEDs and two connected microphones to allow kids to have endless sing-along fun. There are audio jacks for your - or their - iPod, smart phone, etc., but the car does its own FM radio. The Kid Trax Kia Soul Sing-Along DJ Ride-On Car is available in 3 colors, green, orange and purple. I asked as a joke, but it turns out the car does come with two pairs of rock star glasses. (I’m wearing a pair in the video.) Role play is enhanced with daytime running LEDs and working headlights, tail lights, and even under body lights! Power Trax rubber traction strip tires provide better traction. The 12-volt battery charges via a regular AC outlet. This is a Toys R Us exclusive. $399.99. It can be preordered now for shipping early November 2014. (And it looks like the shipping is free. Check their website at the link below to be sure it can go where you are.)
