This review is from: El Materdor Mater With Chuy The Bulldozer Playset Disney Pixar Cars Mattel (Toy)

My wife and I bought this track set for our son on his fourth birthday. He was thrilled to get it, but once the box was opened the fun quickly ended. The track components are so light and thin that shooting the supplied "El Materdor" through the track makes the whole track system move out of position. That causes a) Mater to loose velocity and b) the ramps to get further apart. The upshot is that the car fails to clear the little jump every time. Also disappointing was that the the cars (El Materdor and Chuy the Bulldozer) are not die-cast metal like the majority of other toys from this series. They are a flimsy injection molded plastic. Still, he does play with them (even if the track was quickly discarded), but I think that for the money that was spent we should have gotten something of a higher quality than the average Happy Meal toy.
