This review is from: Car Design Studio (Paperback)
my son (7) got this for christmas and after a few hours the bulb went and we couldn't fix it; he was really dissapinted because he loved it. Now he has a replacement and it works fine; he particularly loves putting the designs together and the book with the ideas.This is an innovative design toy which kids love but it needs to be more resilient to posting and breakage and perhaps have a spare bulb included!

This review is from: Car Design Studio (Paperback)
My 7 year old son loves to draw and loves cars. This was a perfect "design studio" for him to trace and color sports cars. It made him feel great to draw and design spectacular looking cars. Even his friends got involved and they played with this together making different designs. Very much worth the price. I now want to find a more advanced set that comes with more trace design options.

This was a birthday present for my 11 year old grandson. He loves it! He has been spending hours playing with it since he got it almost 1 week ago.
