The quality of hot wheels toys has deteriorated so much since I was a child. While I haven't been impressed by a single track or playset that I have purchased for my son this one is hands down the WORST so far. The ramp is so flimsy that even the car it came with can not go down such a shallow ramp and make it past the shark's head. We figured out how to get the shark's mouth to stay open, but the phrases from the shark are so annoying that I'd rather have not figured it out at all. Yes, my son is playing with it at the moment, but I don't see him choosing to play with this toy much after tonight. He chose this toy for his birthday based on the commercial he saw on TV. Every 2-3 minutes I have to "fix" something on the toy. Next time he wants car tracks I will not be purchasing from Hot Wheels again. If I could give this toy ZERO stars I would have.

My 3 year old son was really excited about this toy. I helped him try to figure it out. I am a mechanical engineer and have trouble trying to get this to work properly. I usually don't write reviews unless a product is really good or really bad. Although the toy looks like fun and cool to my 3 year old, i can just see the frustration in his face when he cant get certain pieces to work. Here is what I have noticed:
-Elevator is flimsy and difficult to go up and down
-The spinning disk is difficult to turn
-The launcher doesn't shoot cars into the sharks mouth. One reviewer said it wasn't supposed to. Then what is its point?
-I cant figure out what the wave thing at the bottom does.
-Not easy to setup the shark's mouth properly
-Not easy to fold up
Basically this toy sucks! It should have never passed design quality control.
I am 31 and used to love Hot Wheels when I was a kid. Since then, it seems the quality has changed quite a bit. Just disappointing.

I bought this for my 4 year old son, and as others have said, the commercials make this toy to be a lot more than it is. However, once we figured out the playsets features and its limitations my son loves it. The number one drawback is the sharks head. It took me probably about an hour to figure it out so that the mouth would close properly when the car goes through it on the track. Also, don't expect the car to shoot into the shark's mouth from the launcher. It is not supposed to.
This is probably not Hot Wheels best designed playset, but my son has really enjoyed since we figured out how it works which is why I have reviewed this as well as I have.

Not bad for the price I paid
The quality is not that bad as I read in the other reviews, however your kid should be over 4-5 to handle this toy. Read more

Not impressed.
I also think the catapult should shoot the car into the sharks mouth (it doesn't). Elevator is stiff, does not move well. Read more

A horrible piece of junk
Instructions make no sense. 'Games' you can play with it make no sense, and the games that you might figure out from it do not work, as the 'track' breaks at first touch. Read more
