Vehicle Reviews

The Rescue Heroes series of toys by Fisher-Price offers a nonviolent and positive alternative to the numerous violent and menacing toys on the market. Parents love the emphasis on helping rather than hurting, while kids just love how cool-looking the Heroes and all their gear are. This watercraft is really two vehicles in one. Separately, it's a personal water cycle, a pontoon boat, and a pair of water skis. All three can also be combined to form a super-vehicle. We liked the versatility of this toy, the effectiveness of the spring-loaded buoys, and the fact that it requires no batteries. --John Moe
