    Hey guess what, there’s more to the fandom than just adults. Kids care. They’ll have fun with it. This is how the franchise stays alive. Nothing useless about it.

    some of the adjacent merchandise is kind of useless. like the little keychains and tiny dollar store figurines, i'm just saying that this is just more merchandise and nothing to hoot about.

    True dat! The whiners are hilarious!

    My kids love Monster Jam/trucks and will enjoy these depending on how durable they are.

    These kinda look like fun to mess with, even though I'm a grown woman and have no need for ... an Optimus and Bumblebee with comically large wheels.

    Bumblebee looks fantastic!
    I hope we get more characters in Monster Treads, maybe Ironhide or Brawn!

    Pretty cool toys for kids. How long can this keep a kid interested nowadays? I got a comparably big-ass Batmobile (from the first/second Nolan Batman movie) that can shoot out the Bat-cycle out for my niece. He was ectastic and I was playing along to race with him and test him how far he can get the bat-cycle to go. Had tons of fun for about 15-20 mins before dinner, and wasn't interested with it much afterward. These Monster Treads got less gimmick/play-value.

    And that price...ouch.
