5.0 out of 5 stars My 3yr old loves this Fire Station..., May 25, 2009

Ok, my son absolutely loves this firestation and the Fire truck that comes with it is so nice. The door on the back opens up along with a little door for some tools and the ladder goes up and down just like a real fire truck. The siren sounds great as well. Then the Fire house itself is just so nice. The ladder goes up and down, the windows open, the doors open, the men can slide down the fire pole, and they have a place to sleep. It's as authentic as you can get for a younger child's toy. We've had this since Christmas last year and my son is still playing with it very regularly.

About the price on Amazon: The firestation that we purchased said on the box, that it was a Toys R Us exclusive. So, the seller on Amazon may just be trying to take advantage of it being exclusive to one store. If Amazon were able to sell it as a store, I think there price would at least be close to Toys R Us' or even beat it. Individual sellers on Amazon can ask whatever they want for their item no matter how ridiculous it may seam. I don't agree with it, but I just wanted to, I guess defend Amazon a little. When it is actually sold by Amazon and the price is ridiculous, blame them. Otherwise, I think it's just this individual seller that is guilty. I hope this review helps=)

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the better fire truck toys out there, December 5, 2008

I agree with the other posters that Amazon's price is way out of whack with reality. We got our son this set for his second birthday at Toys-R-Us and it cost $40. Something is clearly wrong with their pricing on this item.

That being said, this review is about the quality of the product and this is one of the best fire truck toys out there. My son is obsessed with firetrucks and we wanted to get him one for his birthday. I searched online, as well evaluating at a few stores, this one is one of the most durable sets I found. While it does not look like the fire trucks in our neighborhood, looks more like an airport fire truck, my son LOVES it! It lights up and the siren is spot on to the point where I sometimes wonder if a real truck is coming down the street when I hear it from the other room. My son is a little young for the action figures and accessories, but this is by far his favorite toy and it has handled his rough play. I highly recommend it. Just purchase it somewhere else until Amazon fixes the price.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money, May 5, 2009

My husband just bought this with our 4 yr old son last night. My son loves it because he is totally into firemen, but I am really not impressed. The fire escape is too small for the figures to climb. The beds and computer just barely fit on the second story (the only place to really put them) and if you want the windows open they bang into the peices. For some reason, the ladder on the truck prevents the back from opening without some serious pull by an ADULT. Expect to be asked over and over and over to open the back. Compared with the castle and the batcave, I expected more to do. I did give it three stars because my boy doesn't care about these things and just loves the siren and playing with it. But, parents be warned. I would have bought some foam firestation from another store starting with K and saved $20.
