Quick picks

What is an anti-gravity wall climbing car?

An anti-gravity wall-climbing car is a toy car built to move across suitable smooth vertical surfaces as well as flat ones, which gives racing-mad kids a stunt-style alternative to an ordinary toy car. Our Magnetic Wall-Climbing Anti-Gravity Toy Car has lightweight construction for easy handling and a futuristic anti-gravity driving style. It comes in blue, yellow or red, from $19.99.

Here is what the listing does and does not tell you:

  • Surfaces: it is designed for compatible smooth vertical surfaces. Wall-climbing performance depends on the vehicle design and the surface.
  • In the box: the toy car or cars for the selected package. A remote control and charging accessories are included only if they come with the selected model.
  • Batteries and controls: these may vary by model and are not listed. Message us and we'll confirm before you order.
  • Age: age guidance is not listed, and adult supervision is recommended.

It suits kids who love cars and anyone looking for an affordable birthday or holiday gift that is a little different from a standard toy car.

How to choose a wall climbing car or RC toy

  • Check the surface. Wall-climbing toys need suitable smooth surfaces. Drift cars like smooth floors, and off-road cars need outdoor space.
  • Confirm what's in the box. Look for whether a remote, battery and charging cable are included. If a listing says details vary by model, message the seller before ordering.
  • Think about where it will be used. Small-scale cars suit apartments and playrooms; buggies and 4x4s suit yards.
  • Match the control style to the child. Gesture control and simple remotes are easy to pick up; proportional control rewards practice.
  • Supervise younger kids. Age guidance is not listed for most of these toys, and some contain small parts or magnets.
  • Plan for shipping. US shipping is a $6.98 flat rate, free on orders of $49 or more, so pairing a $19.99 wall car with a second gift can cover it.
