Editorial Review

In this sweet and gentle amusement park themed play set from Matchbox, it seems like the cars are having just as much fun as the people have. After all, it's not often that cars get to go on a Ferris wheel or get shot out from a cannon to knock over pretend space aliens and win prizes. With bright colors and soft designs, it's a silly, non-violent toy option for younger kids. One car is included with this particular set but it's compatible with other Hero City gear from Matchbox, affording the possibility of creating a vast and sprawling Hero City empire. Three C batteries are required but not included. A DVD with two Hero City cartoons is included.  --Charlie Williams ... Read more

Great ho race car
If any priced these cars atocal hobby shops lately you will know that [$$$] for two of them is a steal. These cars are extremely fast and feature the magnetic tration so even the youngest racers can enjoy them with little or no skill in ho racing. They are far superior from the cars I used to have when I was a kid both in speed and staying on the track. They allow my 4 year old to race like a pro! The pick up shoes are a little fragile, dont even consider cleaning them but you can buy them online; 10 pairs for [$$$] so i guess its not to big of an issue

Fast Paced Fun
My son (age 4 ½) likes the paint schemes on most NASCAR vehicles and this twin pack was no exception. He loved the flames on the Dupont #24 car and liked the lightening bolt printing on the Valvoline #10 car. But looks were not the only thing this twin pack had going for it. I liked the price; two cars for the price of one is a great price. I bought this twin pack as an addition to a Life Like Racing set. These two cars run extremely well and really hold the track at higher speeds. They are well built, run well fast or slow and look great. The paint scheme on these cars is not currently being used by the real NASCAR sponsors that they represent (the paint scheme is 2 or 3 years old) but at two cars for the price of one who cares. My son and I have had hours of fun with these cars and I would highly recommend this pack to anyone looking to add more cars to their lineup. ... Read more

Editorial Review

The Snow Patrol set includes among its five Hot Wheels vehicles both practical and fantasticways of responding to a deep drift of the white stuff. Among the vehicles is a chunky salt truck withAvalanche Maintenance written on the door, and a crazy-looking, rocket-nosed turbo car on cat tracks.There's also a believable-looking jeep and pickup, and a totally unbelievable dragster on cat tracks and skis.Whatever you do, don't forget your gloves. (By the way, those cat tracks don't turn; there are hiddenminiwheels underneath.) Car styles may vary. --Richard Farr ... Read more

Buy Your Cars at a Store
Hot wheels are a lot of fun and they are a good value. You typically can't go wrong when you buy them. The hitch in buying them on-line, is that you really don't know what cars you are going to get. If you read the fine print, you'll see that the assortment may vary. You could end up with cars that you don't want or with cars that will not work well on your track layout. I really like Amazon, but for Hot Wheels, make a stop at the local toy store.

Exceptional 5 Pack
Sure, the cars are cool, but hey-It's just 5 more cars. It isn't educational because the only thing it teaches you is wheels roll! And Hot Wheels cars are durable unless you start to bash one with a hammer, which I've done once to a Hot Wheels truck and it was still a little hard. ... Read more

Works Great...Can't Take Any Punishment Though...........
This was a amazing toy......when it worked!It was better than all my friends, went higher off jumps.Rarely the rim was in the tire it ushally pops out.Once it went off my freinds ramp and the rim landed seperate with the wheel!.The 22' rim takes so much more force that the others, even higher than 22' is easyer to pull. This resulting into the grooves on the rip cord becoming blunt and getting jammed and only working 3/5 times.My friend gave me one of his rip cords and my launcher destroyed it to....its evil!.Anayways it was amazing when it worked , so im gonna see if i can get another one(NOT 22'!).

AWSOME!
I got my fly wheels and it works good. They go VERY fast and are durable. The tire is made of real rubber instead of cheap plastic. It has some sort of education value figuring out what will make you flywheels go high but thats it. Its also real nice that they made exact replicas of the cars wheels. Overall, 3572/5 ... Read more

This Rocks!!!
I am 25 and this toy RULES!!!I have had more fun than i expected.Great for the office, and a good conversation piece for the desk.

sucks
This toy sucks, at first it was really fun but after a while it gets boring and you need to have a friend to help make sure it doesn't roll away. It is nothing like the commercial. But, It does go fast.It does Jump over cars, But you can,t be to far away from the jump or it will bust a window.Bye ball suckers.

blast of fun
All of my children love this toy as do I, this isa greatbuy and notto costlyA+A+

OK
this is very fun to play with but it doesn't go straight. you also need someone else to play with or else you are going to have to chase it. overall i expected it to be better. it works nothing like the commercial.

What are you thinking?
Let me rip and I'll go as slow as a snail.That is what this toy is telling me.May This be the worst piece of junk ever.
