 Hot wheels car carrier October 2, 2008
Maryann Vita (Pleasantville, NY)
The car case is terriffic! My son has now organized all his "BEST" cars in this case so they do not get scratched or damaged in any way. He is proud of his collection, and I am happy that no one steps on them by accident any more! Great item to own!!
Affordable Storage September 28, 2008
Launcher Spider
No, I did not purchase this product for a child. I did, however, purchase it to protect my OWN collection of Hot Wheels vehicles. Being an adult, my standards for the storage of collectible miniatures is probably a bit higher than, say, the standards of your average eight-year-old.
The container is made of durable hard plastic, and the "door" that swings open to reveal the 48 storage compartments is connected by reliable plastic "hinges." DO NOT stand up the container and open it unless you enjoy watching your collectibles ride out on their little wheels and hit the floor. It's best to lay the product flat and open it like a book. In all honesty, this product is not the ideal storage solution for even a semi-serious collector, but it IS durable, significantly more affordable, and provides quick access to all of your Hot Wheels.
The product is only educational in the sense that the collector may be learning to recognize car models and memorize information, and it's only fun if you enjoy admiring your collection every now and then. Therefore, I concluded that the product is neither educatinal nor fun in and of itself. But... why should it be? It's good storage for someone that doesn't want to spend more for less compartments, and it's a vast improvement over my old Hot Wheels storage system: ziplock bags. So... if you're like me and never really grew up; this is pretty darn great for the price. If you're buying this for a kid, I'd recommend showing the recipient how to lay the container flat (on the floor or a table) before adding or removing cars.
 Hot Wheels Car Carrier is so-so September 18, 2008
H. Simmons (Cornbelt, Indiana USA)
I bought 2 of these so my son wouldn't leave cars all around the house where I could (and usually did) find them at 2 AM by stepping on them. One case was fine, but the other had a bent lid that didn't latch. I did some low-tech bending of the plastic lip so that the latch would catch the wedge on the side of the case, which seems to help, but I wouldn't rely on it not coming open while going upstairs. The easy solution was to teach my boy to carry the case horizontally. Still, they work and hold most cars in a neat and orderly fashion.
Best Economy Car Case We've Found! August 20, 2008
A. Shelton (Baltimore, MD United States)
Our three-year-old has acquired MANY cars, and we have hunted high and low for cases to accommodate them. The best case is still the old vinyl one that my husband had as a kid, but this plastic one has been a great addition. We have two of these, and they hold all shapes and sizes (the only exception we found is one of the flatbed towtrucks). I doubt these will last as long as the vinyl case has, but for the money, they have been great! Another reviewer talked about using the flat door as a ramp--also very popular with our little guy.
