I love the medium size construction legos. I knew when I saw this set that my son would absolutely love it. Unfortunately, the picture is a bit misleading. There is no trackhoe in the set. Only a truck, bulldozer, the rock thing, and the man with accessories. Even the box I recieved reflects the missing trackhoe. I probably would not have purchased it if I would have know that the set did not include what was advertised here.

Air Hogs Havoc Stingers Green

We read reviews that were less than favorable but our boys really wanted remote control planes, so we thought we'd give it a try. What a mistake. Luckily, we tested these before giving them to our kids for their birthdays. My husband couldn't even get the plane off the ground. It just went around in circles. Also, trying to plug the charger in to the bottom of the plane was tricky. There's no way our 6 year old could do it. Overall, the plane was poorly constructed. The underside didn't even meet correctly. And the fact that it didn't fly... well, the planes are back in the boxes and ready to be returned.

Take Along Thomas & Friends - Diesel 10

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Vehicles and Die-Cast
from: Learning Curve


This was the only thing my three year old son asked for for Christmas. He even sat on Santa's lap to request one. I am sad to say however that the picture is misleading. It shows Diesel 10 being a gold/tan color but the item that arrived was green. I believe I read somewhere that Diesel 10 under went a makeover and perhaps green is his new color. My son, though he loves the toy, still thinks that there is another one however. I searched several stores and only found the green ones. He was expecting the gold/tan one and I think was a bit disappointed that it was not the right color. He still insists there is another one. I would purchase it if I could find it. The picture of the one I ordered was gold/tan. Perhaps Amazon should replace ... Read More:

Pixar Cars: Doc Hudson

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Vehicles and Die-Cast
from: Mattel


Doc Hudson is my favorite character from CARS. This toy version of Doc is a must have. It's incredibly detailed, right down to the miniature red "hornet" written along the grey stripe to the hubcaps on the wheels. The quality of the metal is also quite durable and can stand up under a great deal of playing time. A great gift for any fan of CARS. Highly recommended.

iPlay Zoom Around Garage

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Vehicles and Die-Cast
from: International Playthings


I bought this garage for my son's first birthday. It was very easy to put together, but it is also very easy to take apart. It could have been designed a little better, so that the parts wouldn't come off the base so easily. It is fine if you don't pick it up too much. It has a volume control, so you can adjust the noise level, or even turn off all the sound effects. I am a bit disappointed with the size of the top floor of the garage. There is barely enough room to put all three cars on the top level. It is a nice toy, but I wish that I had bought the Fisher Price garage instead.

Maxim Wooden 70 Pc. Deluxe Over & Under Train Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Vehicles and Die-Cast
from: Maxim

May 01, 2007
I got this present for my daughters two year birthday. It says 3+ on the box, but I can't figure for the life of me where there is a choking hazard. While my daughter doesn't quite get the whole push the train around the track she does like driving the trains back and forth.

This present is for me as much as her as I always wanted a wooden train set. The joys of having a child.

My only complaint is that the wheels on the train cars are a bit wobbly. They work well, just not as solid as say a brio train. But since everything is of a compatible standard just go buy a Brio train with no tracks to add to this set.

I would have liked a book of track designs as that would have been neat to try different things.
