VTech Turbo Edge Riders Raptor Racers Track Set

If you plan on ordering this set, and you probably should, there's one more thing you should buy along with it. More about that in just a minute. But for now, I'll say that this is a really fun track. We made sure to set it up before we got our Little Girl to play with it. That way we could have everything looking the way it was supposed to, and working how it should before she even saw it. Because you don't want your kids being impatient while you set it up. But getting it put together was easy, and everything worked fine. Our Daughter loves it, and she loves showing it off to her little cousins when they come over to play.As far as the other thing you need when ordering this - get extra batteries. This works with two AA batteries. But there's a catch. The batteries that it comes with have JUST ENOUGH juice so that it can work for demo purposes. They won't last long when you actually start playing with the set. And you don't want to have to steal batteries from a remote or other gadget in your home, or need to make a run to the nearest store to buy more. So do yourself a favor, and also order a pack of AA batteries when you buy this. If you're getting it as a gift, it's a nice thought for whomever you're gifting it to that you have the extra batteries ready and waiting for when they need them.Good quality, made well, looks awesome, and fun to play with. Plus this is from Vtech. That's a name that all parents like us know, and one that we obviously trust. So we have peace of mind in knowing that it's safe, it's quality, and not made with any harmful plastics or anything like some cheaper non-name-brand toys can be.

Love that my nephew can use his imagination to create different layouts for this track using household discarded boxes. He loves dinosaurs and trucks and this player combines the two. Easy to play with and set up. Comes with thick cardboard pieces to make the track.

Hate this thing. Took forever to put together. No chance my 6 year old would have ever figured it out. He also got bored coloring it while we tried to occupy him during set up. Once we finally figured it out, the cars wouldn't stay on the track due to the bends in the cardboard. Then you can't put it back in the box properly. One and done. Will probably throw it away.

Okay, let's get real for a moment. With our sprawling household, from the chaos of toddlers to the wisdom of grandma, and the influx of mail we get (including the countless boxes of baby girl onesies for my soon-to-be granddaughter!), our recycling bin is always on the verge of exploding. Enter the VTech Raptor Racers Track Set.Firstly, this thing can transform any regular old cardboard into an extension of its already impressive 18-foot track. Now that's what I call innovative! I mean, who knew cardboard boxes could be so cool?Let's just say, this track's got the hustle, and while it’s great to have handy builders in the family, even my hubby and son-in-law took a break from their usual fixer-upper tasks to witness the creativity unfolding in the living room. The SUVs zooming around, escaping raptor jaws, and doing wild stunts had all four generations captivated.Now, I'm no middle school teacher anymore (those days are behind me, folks!), but I can spot an educational gem when I see one. This track not only offers some adrenaline-pumping fun but encourages the kiddos to get hands-on and imaginative. So, if you’re after a cool activity that goes beyond just being a toy, and might just distract the young'uns from their screens, this one’s a keeper!

I even enjoy this as much as the grandkids. It's fun and neat. The box becomes the track. You tear apart the box on the precut areas. Not only that but you can use cardboard boxes and make more track or replace worn out track. You can even add items around the home to make more jumps, tunnels, etc. It's really neat! Requires 2 AA batteries.
