Video summary

Press to jump

  1. 0:29Darcy introduces a robotic pet, which Max and Chad decorate and knock around.
  2. 2:08Max learns to loop a ball through the Pindoloo catch-tube.
  3. 10:31A smartphone-controlled paper airplane kit gets tested across the warehouse.
  4. 12:37Max and Chad begin a three-round miniature BattleBots contest.
  5. 17:08The hosts try an omnidirectional VR treadmill with Blade & Sorcery and VRChat.

Max looks at a U-shaped catch-tube and objects: "It's two bits of plastic!" Then he masters the looping ball and finds a drinking-related use for it. Cold Ones' latest shopping expedition has found something considerably simpler than artificial intelligence to keep him occupied.

"We Tested the Most INSANE Toys" was the channel's only new upload this week, reaching roughly 945,000 views in its opening day and a half. Darcy supplies the products, while Max and Chad supply an increasingly chaotic testing procedure. A robotic pet gets face tattoos and rough handling; a smartphone-controlled paper airplane gets a flight across the warehouse.

The episode leaves plenty of room for games that require actual coordination, too: sliding pucks, miniature BattleBots and a paddle-and-shuttlecock setup. Eventually, Chad and Max strap into an omnidirectional VR treadmill for Blade & Sorcery and VRChat. That final stretch has become a particular talking point in the comments, with viewers asking for a longer outing devoted to Max exploring VRChat. Others pick out the editing and joke about the robotic pet remembering its treatment.

Channel-wide daily views are running at about four times their usual level, though the subscriber count was unchanged over the week. Among nearby channels, Chunkz is also having an unusually busy day, while Mike Boyd's viewing is close to normal.

The toy test is now Cold Ones' strongest daily draw. Behind it, "We Tried China's WORST Products" continues to collect views, and "Cooking 3-Course Meals with Kids Appliances," featuring judge ManyKudos, keeps the older gadget experiments in circulation.
