Product Description

Editorial Review

Challenging Hot Wheels aficionados with an impressive set of difficult obstacles, wild jumps, and high-flying stunts, this Hot Wheels Turbo Jet City playset is loaded with 25 separate action-packed features. The playset is powered by three AA batteries (not included) and comes with one Hot Wheels vehicle and an assortment of curving tracks, jumps, banks, tunnels, and towers. Electronic sound effects add to the excitement, and a whirling helicopter and foam jet plane will take off with the Hot Wheels car when you launch the car correctly by completing one of the more difficult stunts. The Turbo Jet City playset includes a two-lane booster. Additional Hot Wheels playsets sold separately. --Chris Burns

2.0 out of 5 stars Get Octoblast Instead, December 8, 2002

Great commercials will get you to buy this toy, but its hard to put together and needs constant adjusting to work. Once put together, kids' toys should just work without tinkering. The parts don't stay in place and it just does these little one -shot gimmicks. Hot Wheels are a fun part of any boys' toy chest, but if you want a Hot Wheels toy that plays like it should, get Octoblast.

3.0 out of 5 stars Another low quality toy from Hot Wheels, September 22, 2003

This toy is actually fairly fun, it's a shame that it continually falls apart just from normal use. It's almost impossible to keep it in one piece. I'd have thought that they would figure out how to make the pieces stay together.

My son loved the "idea" of this toy, had to have it for Christmas. My husband and I spent a huge amount of time trying to assemble it and it broke almost immediately. They cried and were frustrated. It is also very large to store and doesn't disassemble easily (except by the breaking). I won't be purchasing another item from this company!
