    The grandkids still love it!

    The grand kids are still playing with this. It’s good for hand-eye coordination. The parts seem to be holding up well. I was also impressed by the size of each piece. They are not small enough to be of concern.

    This is no fault of Target or the actual toy, but the packaging is terrible. I ordered for a Drive Up and the 29 pieces became unsecured and were everywhere! Hard to give as a gift now…

    Fun, but doesn't Roll

    It was fun and my son really was super excited to build his own car. Disappointed that the wheels don’t actually roll though. There were extra pieces it seemed, but who knows for sure because there were no real instructions. There’s a small picture on the front of the box that kind of shows you what to do.

    Dont buy this as a gift

    None of the pieces are secured in the plastic. Bought two as gifts and both look tampered with, but the boxes were sealed.

    Build a car but doesnt roll

    This toy actually doesn’t roll so it’s really disappointing once your child puts it all together and then expects it to actually roll.

    Fun interactive toy

    Bought this as a gift for my friend's son and he loved it! He wanted to put it together as soon as he opened it; he's 4 years old and did need a little help to put it together.

    Piece of junk

    Unclear instruction. Very limited functionality. Tires do not rotate. Waste of money that can't be returned

    Great idea, durability lacking.

    My son loves this toy, and I love that he loves it and it uses brain power and creativity. I don’t like that the threads on the screws are beginning to break. The durability is lacking. The toy is less than a month old- he got it for his birthday(01/21) and it’s already breaking. Such a shame.

    Wheels don't actually roll, car just for looks

    Putting together is super cool, my 2.5 yo had so much fun with his dad building it. But the wheels don't actually roll so he can't actually play with it..? It's just for looks?? BIG let down on Hot Wheels part. My kiddo LOVES hot wheels everything but his favorite part is playing with them and racing them around, not just looking at them. Would not recommend unless you just want to build it a few times and leave it on the shelf. Disappointed, really hoped it would be a better Christmas gift :(
