Product Description

From the Manufacturer

In the Disney/Pixar movie Cars, Strip Weathers (a.k.a. The King) is the reigning champ, having won the Piston Cup many years in a row. Just shake him up to start his engine--you'll hear engine sounds, and he'll say memorable phrases from the movie. (He's one gutsy racer!) The more you shake him up, the longer he goes! Race him up to 20 feet or on the Shake 'n Go! Speedway (sold separately). Requires 3 AA (LR6) alkaline batteries. Vehicle measures approximately 5 1/2 inches long by 3 1/2 inches wide by 2 1/2 inches high.

5.0 out of 5 stars The King's greatest car, July 25, 2006

My nephew has this car. While it's pretty simple, it is a really neat toy. The car looks way cool. When you shake it, the engine starts up, then Richard Petty talks to you and the car takes off. The review says it goes up to 20 feet, but I think it will go further. It went well even on carpet. This is easy enough for a 3 year old to work, but it also would be good for any fan of Richard Petty. How often do ya find a running Superbird these days?

I liked the idea of these shake and go's it was a cool product a cool idea and interactive for the kids. Then we got more than three of them and they take three batteries each. I use rechargeable batteries but man we had at least 6 of these things and that's 18 rechargeable batteries!! They used up pretty much all of my stock. The kids will still play with them to this day and we got these things over two years ago. They're a cool toy but take a lot of batteries if you have more than just a few.

I bought this Cars toy for my 22-month old son at a regular toy store a couple of months ago (he is big into Cars and so are we), though, surprisingly, he never really took as much a liking to it as the smaller, regular, Cars. I've come to think that I like it more than he does... 3.5 Stars
