Mine certainly feels sturdier than my 1st-gen Razr, but that's not saying much. In my experience LGs get the nod for kid-proof.
Now the radios, those things were/are built like tanks. I remember picking one up when I was a kid...could've worked out with that thing...like a solid block of steel, it was.

I suppose it depends on the phone. I never owned a RAZR and never wanted one; actually, I've never owned any Moto before the Droid. I suppose a better statement would be that I'm really impressed with Moto's latest Droids. The orginal Droid is ridiculously heavy next to most phones, but that heavy metal is what makes it so sturdy, with that in mind, I assumed the Droid X would be well built as well, and it is. I like the fact that the casing is metal and the screen is made out of Gorilla Glass. Btwn those two things alone, I should be able to make it to 20 mos. before my NE2. I'm curious to see how well their i1 holds up to being dropped.
