The Torro VW Schwimmwagen T166 Sand 1/16 Scale Amphibious Vehicle is a miraculous amphibious vehicle that can used on land and in water. What makes this vehicle unique, is it's ability to quietly enter least surveilanmce areas via waterways and collect intelligent information against the enemy. However, it vulnerability is the same as it's strength ice, snow, and harden water obstacles.

Very poorly assembled. Had several issues. One the rear axle was not in its socket. Had to force it back in place. Second, the front drive shafts were not attached to the center drive sprocket. I could tell they were never in place at the factory. I had to take off the cover plate, position the drive shafts in position, then reinstall the cover None of that should have been necessary if the factory had assembled them correctly. Very poor assembly. Would not recommend unless you have some mechanical skills. As the distributor i would recommend you check all your stock before you send anymore out.The jeep was fine. Had no problems with it.

Because the vehicle is 4 wheel drive and no differential it steers wide and slides when turning. The back wheel is a little wobbly but I kept this one because the other returned ones had issues I didn't believe fixable. For the cost differential drive should have been installed as well as metal ball joints in the wheels and a figure included.

Had to get a replacement but everything works with last vehicle. I didn't set the vehicle in water but I did test the propeller by putting some water on the two sensors on the bottom of the car, it worked fine. Car runs ok, a little wide in the turning because of single gears instead of a differential.

I owned this for 3 days before it broke. it no longer lowers the rear propeller far enough to engage the motor, and one of the front drive shafts has snapped, making it 3 wheel drive instead of four, which is incredibly important to drive up a bank out of the water
