It's all out Rumblers' action with the ultimate lights and sound playset! Load your Rumblers' car and then crank up the light meter to unleash real light and sounds action. Not for use with some Hot Wheels vehicles. Measures 12" x 24" x 3.75". Includes one 3" vehicle. Requires 3 "AA" batteries, included.
Once You Get Accustomed To It... -- This toy requires a bit of coordination. You have to continue cranking while you press the button to launch. The toy is hard to stabilize while cranking, so it took my 4-year-old son many many attempts before he got the hang of it, but once he did, he loved it. I just asked him to help me write this review, and I asked him how much he liked it, and he said "as much as you love me." The whining car noise is annoying (it activates when moved a certain way); there is a switch on the bottom but I don't know what it does, since it does NOT turn off the noise.
My Son Loves It. -- Large and rather durable for the hot wheels items (which often aren't at all.) It's a very cool toy and my son plays with it for a long time. Be aware that it's a loud toy.
Excellent Value For The Price! -- I bought this as an additional Christmas gift for my five year old son, and minus the slightly awkward positioning of buttons and gagets (requiring two people to operate until my son got it figured out) it was really fun! I believe I paid 10.00 for it, so I was not expecting much, but this toy was a hit!
Ah Cool Mom! That'S What My 7 Year Old Says... -- Santa Claus gave this to my 7 year old son and he loves it. It comes with one car that lights and makes sounds. The unit itself plays music and lights up. You put that lightning stand at the end of the ramp, put the car in and crank it, release the button and off it goes busting through the caution sign. My 2 year old loves to sit and watch and says a loud "OOOOOO" once the car is launched. We've tried my son's other hotwheels and they work...not as well as the car that comes with it. Even my 15 year old daughter gets a kick out of playing it with the boys.
Disappointing.... -- I agree with other reviews that this required a lot of coordination. It is too flimsy to stay upright on its own while you crank the wheel and try to press the button to launch the car. You have to hold it steady with a finger on the launch button while cranking the wheel and then try and align it with the target at the same time. My 5 year old had some considerable trouble mastering the coordination and grew impatient. He loved the concept and the noise etc but got frustrated quickly with the work involved and ended up playing with the cars and launching them at the target himself. This kept him happy for some time, but he has not gone near it since. If they could make it more stable on the floor it would be a lot more fun to play with, I think.
