Ok, wow, this is something different! It definitely looks like it's from about 50 years in the future. The wheels are wide and way outside the body, and the tires are low-profile and have a tread pattern like I've never seen. There are a lot of chrome accents, but it's not overdone. There's independent suspension in the front, but unfortunately none in the back.
Just when I was getting curious about how it's supposed to do its
transformation into a high-riding SUV, I accidentally got it to start
transforming without any power! You can sort of squeeze the front bumper
and rear axle and the whole body will rise up and transform in a
scissors-like action. You really shouldn't do this (and I won't do it
again) because you can strip the gears inside. It was a surprising
preview of what's to come, though!
We tested the Morph-N-Ator in a wide open parking lot to give it plenty of room to show what it's made of. The transformation process, activated by an extra button on the controller, is COOL. You really have to watch it from all different angles to appreciate everything that goes on. The front & rear wheels get closer together, the chassis bends in half (but kinda rotates too, because the bumper stays facing forward), the chrome exhaust pipes on the side get shorter, the bed/trunk area that has details that look like speakers gets tucked away inside, and the trim on the side slides up closer with the side windows. When it's done, you have this really tall hatchback mini-SUV, and it happens quickly and smoothly. Nice.
In its low-slung form, the Morph-N-Ator is very, very stable and drives
well. When it's transformed into its high-riding form, it drives very,
very differently. It becomes much more agile, turning sharply and
quickly, and it can be made to do 180 whip-turns pretty easily by
turning and quickly tapping reverse. Best of all, if it hits a bump just
right, or if you go backwards a little before going forward, it does a
wheelie! Now, when I say wheelie, I don't mean just lifting the front
tires up off the ground a little bit, for a second or two. It goes all
the way vertical, nose pointed sky-high, and can actually stay up like
that for a little while! There's actually a wheelie bar on the back that
helps it to drive along without scraping any part of the body, and also
to keep it from flipping all the way back. For a really cool trick,
transform from car form to SUV form while going in reverse, then go
forward to start a wheelie. While it's riding on two wheels, transform
back into car form! Awesome!
