This is a really cool Lego set. It comes with three actual race cars and a ton of little things to make it look more realistic. It takes hours to build, so it entertains for a long time that way, and with three cars, it makes for some really fun post-build play.

I'm very much not a fan of toys with multiple parts, however. Any toy that has more than one part to it will most likely become separated shortly. This is no exception. After a week or two, the stand, the TV monitors, and all the extra mini figures will be in pieces in the spare Legos box. However, the cars are still really fun, and, having a spare Legos box is half the fun of Legos. Highly recommended toy.

When this item came as a lightning deal, I could not help myself. For the price, I had to get it. Lego's can be expensive but kids love to be able to create and play with them. The great things about these movie themed sets is that they are recognizable to kids but also can be modified by the kids. My nephews can't get enough of them.
