The quality of this toy is terrible! The latches on the back of the firetruck don't close properly, which makes it difficult to keep the back of the truck closed. Why is this so important? My 4 year old absolutely LOVES cars & trucks where the doors/hood/trunk open and close...to have one where the doors are supposed to open, but don't close properly is disappointing to him. As my son indicated when we first took it out of the box, the back wheels don't turn! It's not possible to get one of the action figures to actually turn the crank with his arms on it...it's a flimsy piece of plastic as compared to some of the other rescue vehicles...for something so important as a fire truck (all little 3 & 4 year old boys know what fire trucks are and do, and mine is pretty excited by the real ones), Fisher Price certainly missed the boat on this one! Go back to the drawing board, and get it right next time!

Overall FP toys have been very hit or miss the last few years. Little people were poorly designed a few years ago, but seem to be better now. Rescue Hero stuff seems to have been good the last few years, and terrible this year. Construction of this has problems: the plastic is thinner than rescue hero stuff has been in the past, and both the doors of the truck won't stay closed at the same time. The latches designed to keep it closed just don't work right. Also, when the special Action Max Billy Blazes with floppy arms-- which we had to buy separatly-- is put in the truck to turn the crank, there is no notch to hold him in by his backpack connection, so when his arms turn, he comes out of the truck head first. Another miss by fisher price. My 3 year old is very frustrated with this toy. We also got the jet hq, and the legs on it are weak, and the plastic body is also too thin, but otherwise it seems acceptable, better than this truck.

My son LOVES the rescue heroes & we have a tremendous collection of their items. This is by far the WORST of our collection - for the life of me, I can't get any of the Action Max characters to fit properly & crank the wheel. It is not nearly as durable as previous RH vehicles. It has found a permanent spot in our basement storage area. Avoid!

This toy is not well built and I wish I would of read the reviews before purchasing. The backdoor latch broke within 5 minutes of using this toy - My son was so excited he loves fire trucks - The Rescue Heroes figures are great because they are the perfect size for little hands.

I bought this fire truck for my grandson's fifth birthday,I bought the Rescue Heroes for Christmas. It really is not very sturdy, the doors do not stay closed, the ladder doesn't twirl all the time, the Rescue Heroes steering gadget doesn't always work, sometimes yes, sometimes no. However, my grandson is thrilled just to have it and plays with it and all its faults.

My son received this for Christmas and the toy was already broken when we took it out of the box. For $30 it isn't worth the money.

This was our first encounter with the FP Rescue Heroes. My husband, myself and my child were all very disappointed Christmas morning. This toy looks very tough and rugged, quite cool to be exact but you get it out of the box and the only impressive thing it does is the ladder turns...wow wee! Whoever imagined this toy went out on a coffee break during the creation and manufacturing meeting and never came back.

I had this sent to my 4 year old grandson.His parents really liked it.He plays with it outside.Seems to be sturdy.

This is our first experience with Rescue Heroes and we are greatly unsatisfied. My son asked for Rescue Heroes as his number one Christmas present, and we had heard great things about them from friends, so we were excited to begin collecting these. The fire truck is just junk. The figure will not turn the crank, if we do get him in there correctly (which I'd like to see a three year old that could do that) he flips over the top. The truck is flimsy. It's sad because my son tries to play with it and enjoy it, but he becomes frustrated pretty quickly and moves on to something else. DO NOT BUY THIS LINE OF TOYS. IF Rescue Heroes have been good products in the past, then go to EBay and purchase the older ones, that is what I plan on doing next time.
