Editorial Review

Kids always aspire to be just like their heroes and firefighters are a popular favorite. This rescue mission kit with firefighter figures and vehicles lets kids emulate their heroes by pretending to put out a gigantic forest fire. The kit comes with all the components to build any of 50 possible combinations of rescue vehicles. Moving parts include several truck bodies and trailers, a truck cab, regular and all-terrain tires, a ladder, a spotlight, and a mini fire truck--all of which slide together easily via magnets. A button on the roof of the fire truck flashes lights and plays siren sounds for more realistic play. Two action figures make up the firefighting team and a blazing backdrop represents the fire that needs your expertise. --Cristina Vaamonde

This review is from: Matchbox Magna Wheels Fire Stomper (Toy)

I have been so impressed. I have 4 boys that are 6,5,4,2 and I watch extra 4,3,2 year olds. It is amazing to me to watch the kids all take turns and have a blast with this set. The set is big enough for multiple kids to play and share, and will grow with their skills and creativity! I am an educator and I can see real potential with this system.

This review is from: Matchbox Magna Wheels Fire Stomper (Toy)

My four-year old got this for Christmas this year and he loves it. He enjoys putting the little car in the launcher and sending it down the ramp (ladder) into the fire to put it out and additionally putting it together differently.

Ignore the bad review -- some of the pieces do require adult help to stick together, but this is a durable and well-built toy that will bring hours of enjoyment to kids who love cars and trucks. There are lots of ways to reassemble the vehicles, and lots of replay value. This item is a steal, even with the shipping charge.
