5.0 out of 5 stars Must be seen to be believed! November 9, 2011

This thing is nuts. It's got an animated cartoon projection for a face! My 2 tear old thinks it's alive, and he treats it like a pet. Beautifully designed and durably manufactured. The "IT" toy for any Disney's Cars fanatic. The rookie driving lesson is a cute activity. Lightning McQueen calls out directions and provides feedback based on your directional responses. Words can't describe the animation feature, I still can't get over how cool this is.

5.0 out of 5 stars All I can say is WOW! October 31, 2011

Just got this shipped to me and I can't even believe what this "toy" does. Aside from the fact that it has some cool interactive driving games, its eyes and mouth light up and the thing talks to you! All I can say is that you have to see it to believe it. Highly recommended (also props to Amazon for the quick shipping).

4.0 out of 5 stars Had to modify to get it to work.... January 3, 2012

I thought this would be helpful, before contacting "Santa's Workshop".... I actually purchased this item from the Red Bull's-eye... First one's controller did not work on Christmas morning. Luckily, my 3 year old had fun just pushing it around. Stood in line on the 26th... for the exchange with the elves.... and the new one's controller kept turning it off after about 30 seconds of use. I noticed that the batteries were moving just enough out of contact..causing the remote to turn off. A added a little spongy tape to the back cover of the remote... Everything is now working perfectly. My son loves it and I no longer have to play the exchange game and try to get these toys out of their packaging without hurting myself.

2.0 out of 5 stars Shuts down Too Often January 2, 2012

By Tf

Durability: 1.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 1.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   

This toy is programmed to shut down for "a few seconds," per the instructions, if you bump it into something too many times. Unfortunately, ours shuts down all together and my child needs to flip the on/switch a few times to get him to work again.

For $50 bucks (of her own money), this sucker is going back to the store. Plus, they really need to put on a switch where you can opt to turn off the voice. It gets annoying after a few minutes.

Ordered this car and sent it to my grandson. It only worked for about 5 minutes. It didn't cost a lot of money, However. Never again.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be GREAT... December 25, 2011

The "real Lightning McQueen" was the ONLY thing my son wanted for Christmas. I bought it Thanksgiving night for a very reasonable price on Amazon. It was to be from Santa, so I wrapped it up without trying it first. Big mistake. When we put the batteries in this morning, the remote worked but Lightning did not. We swapped out the batteries and Lightning took off! Assuming the batteries were the problem, we were happy (and my son was beside himself with joy!). About 5 minutes after that, the toy stopped working. Reading the instructions, we learned the car was to "rest" every so often. We let it rest for the 5 minutes suggested, but no go. 20 minutes, a second change of batteries, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 4 hours... this car simply is dead. Will be returning it to Amazon for a refund ~ not an exchange. Exchanges are not offered - assumedly because of the Thanksgiving price. Now we have to refund and purchase a new one for an additional $15 - HOPING the new car actually works. Not exactly satisifed with Amazon at this point (and believe me, we are loyal Prime members who buy pretty much as much as possible from the site) NOR the Air Hogs product.

My son put this on his Christmas list after he saw the advertisement on TV. I bought it for him early so that I don't have to fight with other parent's who are wanting the same thing for their kids in December. I love the fact the box is easy to wrap (not weirdly shaped) and how presentable it is. Very happy.
