Review on πŸ¦– Unleash the Power: Liberty Imports Control Dinosaur Velociraptor - Perfect for Dino Lovers! by Chuck Derrick

Worst Junk: Electronic Pets

Like the other reviewer - the packaging screwed into the toy and it's clear the toy wasn't designed for screws. They were simply drilled directly into the plastic part of the dinosaur. It took me about an hour to pull out the various screws and get this semi-secure item to play with. The screws themselves were made of such cheap metal that they kept falling apart. I had to whip out a giant pair of pliers to extract dangerous sharp metal fragments from the dinosaur. And the packaging screws were inserted into a thin plastic tube, which requires a special screwdriver with a very thin shaft (which I have, but I only have it because we made fragile electronics at home - it's not a household tool). Of course, not removing the shaft was a delicate task. Then I had to go over the edges of the plastic. the molding that makes up the dinosaur and shave the sharp plastic bits off the rotten design. I don't trust this thing one iota, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was full of lead. This is the kind of junk you would expect at a warehouse sale for less than $5. Of course, they fell in love with him before we even unwrapped him, so we'll have to leave this bloody dangerous thing until they get fed up with it. That. He doesn't do anything. There's a remote control but the legs don't go, he just stands there and yells at you.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
