Mattel's Matchbox Rocky the Robot Truck is an interactive dump truck designed for children ages three and older. Talking, driving, lifting, dumping, and even dancing, this toy dump truck is a boy's robotic companion. Speaking over 100 phrases, Rocky has a clever line for everything. You can do all the work by hand, or get him to help out.  | | Rocky the Robot Truck Ages: 3+
Requires:
- 4 "C" batteries (included)

This is no ordinary dump truck -- Rocky talks and dances. View larger. | Load 'Em Up and Move 'Em Out
Built with strong, durable plastic, Rocky is ready to handle heavy loads. Your child can manually tilt his dump bed to unload it -- or make some noise and he'll do it for you. And when you push Rocky forward or pull him backward on all six wheels, his blue headlights are activated and he'll make some noise of his own, with engine sounds and honking. The smokestack on the front of the truck is the primary way to control this robot truck. Tilting the lever back gets Rocky to stand on his back four wheels. The truck is automatically set in dump mode, but pressing the red button on top of the smokestack several times will switch it to dancing mode, where he'll shake his upper truck body to music. Pushing the lever forward returns Rocky to a normal truck position. The red button also cues Rocky to say one of his many phrases or jokes, and also wakes him up if he's taking a nap. If you don't play with Rocky for a while, he will go into sleep mode -- a may even snore. Kids get Rocky's attention by placing objects in his dump bed, or by pushing or pulling him. Make Some Noise!
Rocky is very responsive, interactive, and engaging -- often prompting kids to make noise so he can show off his dancing and dumping skills. Because you can play with him manually or with his help, Rocky makes playtime easy and simple. However, with only one button for a couple of operations, Rocky's automatic modes may take some getting used to for younger children. They may have a difficult time getting directly past the robot's talking to get to the dancing mode. Rocky The Robot Truck comes with four "C" batteries. What's in the Box
Robot truck and instruction booklet. (Batteries included.)
Engaging and interactive, Rocky is the ideal playmate for younger kids. View larger. | 
The durable plastic wheels whir and allow Rocky to move around on his own. View larger. |

 My 5 year old loves this! October 27, 2009

My son got this truck for his 5th birthday. So far, it seems to be durable. It does everything it's supposed to do (as seen on TV...). It has a ton of phrases and voice interaction- "Make a sound if you want me to dance". The price seems to be worth it. I would definitely recommend this truck to anyone looking for a fun toy for a boy (or girl)!
Great fun! October 8, 2009

I got this toy for my 5 year old but my 3 year old and 10 year old love it. It does a ton of different stuff, looks cool, and even though my boys have been given it a go - it has held up great. Seriously, a great gift or something for the kids. You won't be disappointed.
My 3-year old LOVES this truck! November 6, 2009

This is such a neat toy! It does everything you see in the commercial and has held up very well to some rough play. It dances, moves around and talks, and my 3-year old thinks it's the coolest truck in the world. His favorite part is when the truck stands up on its hind wheels and dances. It is a little more pricey here on this site (more reasonable locally) but seeing the joy in my son's face as he explores this robot truck has made it all worthwhile. Highly recommended!
WHY WOULD YOU BUY THIS FROM AMAZON November 13, 2009

The toy is great, I think it's cute but why would anyone buy this toy from amazon when you can get it cheaper at a store.

Bought this for my 5 year old nephew for Christmas and I think he is going to love it. I played with it and ROCKY is so cool and talks very clear. Just ordered it yesterday and recieved it today; so don't know how durable it will be but it seems to be very well made. Don't believe I will regret getting this one, such a fun toy.
