Monster Jam Smash & Bash Grave Digger Monster Truck
New from Monster Jam is the Smash & Bash Grave Digger Monster Truck! This remote-controlled monster truck is ready for any terrain. Play indoors or outdoors—the truck is equipped with soft rubber tires that can tackle man-made or natural obstacles. It’s easy to use with a simple controller and an interactive smash component that differentiates it from other monster trucks.
The Smash & Bash Grave Digger truck transforms into a “smashed” state on impact, so if you crash into a wall, boulder, or another vehicle, the truck will automatically enter its smashed state. Perfect for tumbling, spins, and other stunts, this truck is meant for smashing into obstacles and coming out resilient.
With the press of a button, the truck will transform back into its original form and is ready to keep racing. It’s easy to use with just two knobs used for steering and the single button for resetting back to the non-smashed state. In addition to its extended range of 200 feet, it also has 2.4GH frequency, meaning you can race or tumble with up to six other Monster Jam monster trucks at a time. Brought to you by Spin Master, Monster Jam Smash & Bash Grave Digger Monster Truck is endlessly entertaining!
The Monster Jam Smash & Bash Grave Digger Monster Truck is available at Walmart or on Amazon.
