Comments about Bowen Hill Animal Planet Radio Control Tarantula:

I bought this for my daughter who is really fascinated by spiders. She was thrilled and played with it for about two days when the batteries died.
We changed the batteries on both the spider and the remote. It worked briefly then Nothing. Zilch. We changed the batteries again, just in case - and Nothing. Dead. No longer working.

Results- an upset child and a disappointed consumer.

Comments about Bowen Hill Animal Planet Radio Control Tarantula:

this spider is hilarious. it's legs move like it's walking and it is so funny -- and realistic (if it weren't so big..) my 4 year old works the remote perfectly. we've only had it a week but so far so good. hopefully it won't die like others have reported. but it is a great gift!

A Disappointing Christmas Present
By Father of Twins from Detroit, MI on 1/2/2010
Cons:
Doesn't Last, Flimsy
Describe Yourself:
Parent Of Multiples (Twins etc)
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Bowen Hill Animal Planet Radio Control Tarantula:

This product made our sons excited to open them and they spent the entire day after Christmas playing with them. Realistic and provided lots of fun. The second day they both stopped working, even with battery changes. Unfortunately, the company who manufactures them doesn't care that they toys don't work anymore....surprise, surprise and they can't be returned now because the packaging is thrown out, so out to the garbage they go. Don't waste your money on these things. Cheap remote control items often do this.

Great fun for pranks!
By Biologist from Illinois on 12/1/2009

Durable, Easy to Control, Long Lasting, Realistic Movement

Limited Function
Best Uses:
Older Children, Teens
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:

Comments about Bowen Hill Animal Planet Radio Control Tarantula:

This thing looks creepy, even when it's sitting still! It is easy to manuever and durable. The movement is a little bit more lifelike than just a wheeled object, since the legs move back and forth as it moves. It is ideal for pranks!

By Amy from Hayden, AL on 11/29/2009
Describe Yourself:
Parent Of Two Or More Children
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Bowen Hill Animal Planet Radio Control Tarantula:

My daughter was very excited about this toy--she picked it out as a reward for good grades. We installed the batteries, turned it on, and nothing. It didn't work. We had it turned on, we checked the batteries to be sure they were in the right way, and it just didn't work. Her comment was, "what a rip-off."
