FAQs
How do the cars change color?
The cars have a special coating that reacts to temperature changes. Dipping them in warm water causes one color change, and dipping them in icy cold water reverts them to their original color.
Do I need batteries for these cars?
No, batteries are not required. The color-changing feature is activated solely by water temperature.
What age is recommended for these toys?
These toys are recommended for children aged 3 years and up, suitable for both children and adult collectors.
Can I use soap or other cleaning agents?
It is recommended to use only a damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid soaps, detergents, or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the color-changing paint.
Are all characters available in the Color Changers collection?
The collection features various characters, but each vehicle is sold separately and subject to availability. Not all characters may be released or currently available.
What is the scale of these cars?
The vehicles are manufactured in a 1:55 scale.
How many paint jobs do the cars have?
Each car delivers two paint jobs in one: its base color and a transformed color activated by water.
Troubleshooting
Car not changing color
Ensure the water is sufficiently warm or cold for the intended color change. Test the water temperature with your hand. Some color changes may be more subtle than others.
Color change is inconsistent
Make sure the entire vehicle is submerged in the water. Dry the car completely between warm and cold water dips for the best results.
Paint or finish appears damaged
Clean with a damp cloth only. Avoid abrasive materials or cleaning solutions. If damage has occurred, it may affect the color-changing ability in that area.
Vehicle does not revert to original color
Allow the vehicle to dry completely. The color change mechanism relies on temperature differentials; once dry, re-test with cold water. Ensure the cold water is sufficiently cold.
