Toy Car Track Set, Track Builder Multi Loop Box Playset & 1:64 Scale Vehicle, 10 feet of Track Components in Storage Box

Really great play set that is it’s own box, and at a really good price. The tracks are flexible and don’t break easily. One of the best parts is the launcher, which is really durable. It doesn’t use rubber bands to launch the car, it just uses one to pull the lever back into place after launch. This is much better than the bow-and-arrow type of launchers that Hot Wheels makes, because those break quickly due to all the stress and it’s hard to find replacements. It’s actually easy to change the track configuration. Hot wheels cars work well on it, but a lot of matchbox cars don’t (which is fine). I think every Hot Wheels car we have is compatible with the tracks themselves, and probably 30-40% of them are compatible enough to be launched and complete the 2 loops configuration. They have to have certain shapes/weights to work really well with the launcher, so you just have to try different cars to see which ones work. But that’s fun, too.

Gave this to a 2 and 5 years old and they both love it, we've played with it every day since. You get over 10 feet of track, loop stuff, and even more connectors than you need to make one or 2 tracks. I help build the tracks and I must say that Hot Wheels has gotten better in the last 25 years- the connectors are more solid (a major factor in the success of the toy), the launcher is quality and can withstand being stomped on, and the crate itself is an awesome piece for making the loops, hills, bridges, and jumps. There is plenty of room in the crate to hold more pieces if we get them but I'm not sure that is even necessary. One thing though- you will definitely want to buy more cars right away- one is not enough. It is fun to see which cars can make the loop, jump farther, crash better, etc.

This works great! Kids love it and I had fun playing with it too. It's fun trying to get different vehicles to fly through it and setting it up on various surfaces, tables, chairs, etc. The only thing is that if you launch it at an angle, the car can fly off without going through the loop. So far it holds up well. Flexible yet strong. Parts don't snap apart or break easily. Colors all match and components seem high quality. It's all compatible with other hot wheels items. I thoroughly enjoy it and so do the kids. Wife finds it acceptable. It doesn't make too much of a ruckus which is always good. A few hours of play here and there as long as it's not out all the time, the kids find it entertaining every once in a while especially when dad plays with them.

So far so good, my 3 year old can launch it with some success without me. Soon I am sure he will figure out how to hit it hard enough to make it always work. Very easy to put together. I love that all parts can be stored inside itself. Products that fo this are seriously my favorite as a mom! Some cars work better then others when using the hoops. I would say this is a great product. I do not know on durability since we just got it. But it seems sturdy so far.

This is a great build your own track even for a two year old. The best part is that it is its own storage box. We've had it for 2 years and its held up to a rough and tumble boy.

Oh! My! Goodness!!! This thing is awesome. Its not designed to come with a lot of track pieces but we knew that before purchasing. We have other sets. But the clamp lets us setup tracks from the counter and run them through the living room. Flip the box over and connect them with tracks to make jumps with finishing gates. Cool stuff!!!

Now first off know you will need about 40ft (the standard sets come with 15ft or 40ft) of loose track to add to this set. As far as the design, the clamp works fine but finding an object to get a solid grip on might be challenging. You could arrange the blue part of the crate to allow for the clamp to attach but it is not the best option for stability and power (gravity). But for under $20 there is no other option offering a fair start starting line along with 4 car lanes. As far as the finish lines, there are better out there (as far as deciding a clear winner) but there are worse. But these finish lines are not best used for a short race (where the cars are neck and neck), but best used for an endurance race (where you have a very long track maybe 8 to 10 feet long or longer). The reason for this is because when it is a close finish, these finish lines spin and it is hard to know who won. In a long distance race it will separate the cars that can keep their power vs those that cannot and most likely there will be a clear winner and the finish lines simply act as a point of ending the race. I realize HW does not want to step on the toes of their top track (or tracks) so they do not like to put the best features in their more affordable lines but this is completely a decent option for specific types of races.

Good product.
