Shell Shocker - Good fun, lots of laughs, durable January 30, 2006 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
The Shell Shocker is fun, durable and the battery pack has a good long charge. The only down side is that it takes four hours to recharge the battery, making it difficult for kids to wait for the next round of fun!
They grab you where it hurts January 29, 2006 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
After spending something like $70 on a Shell Shocker, I was then extorted into spending another $25-30 on THE BATTERY. There is only one battery you can use with it, none of the aftermarket ones will fit. The only way to use it is with a battery. So why don't they include a battery with the toy? To pick your pocket. Nothing against Amazon or Toys R Us, but Tyco is really sleazy for this approach.
Battered for Batteries January 17, 2006 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
First, I didn't, nor would I ever buy my son a $70.00 "TOY," even though he wanted one. I did get him an R/C car though. Actually my wife bought it and fortunately I read the box and realized that she hadn't purchased the required battery. The same battery that is used for the "Shell Shocker." Consequently we are now saving the R/C car for his birthday in February. Hopefully we can find the required battery by then, otherwise, it will be a "Graduation from Kindergarten" gift. It's January 17th and I still can't find one in any store, or on any website.
Tyco spoiled my son's Christmas. January 10, 2006 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
The biggest waste of money. My son was thrilled upon opening The Shell-Shocker Christmas morning. Until we tried to set it up. First came disapointment at having to wait a day to buy this special battery. Next came frustration with the total lack of stock. Wallmart had none anywhere in the store. I have been told by other parents via email that the battery will be un avilable for at least a month.Now comes anger at Tyco and their blatant mis-representation of this product. I will never again buy anything from this company and I am composing a mass email to all the parents I know, warning them of Tycos customer service and calling for a boycott.
