3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best carrying case, November 26, 2008

If you are looking for a carrying case to house matchbox/hotweels sized cars, this will do the trick but is not the best. It does hold over 72 cars (more - if you don't mind stuffing 2 cars in the same slot). The case is double sided and the front lid has a spinning hubcap. The spinning hubcap doesn't really do anything. Sure it spins, but so what? It's not really anything your child can play with. The lids do not open well. The lid on the back side doesn't even stay open by itself - you kind of have to hold it open. It would have been nice if you could flip the lid open 180 degrees. The lids also do not hold a tight seal, so we've had them pop open many times.

Luckily we found this for not too much $$. It's not that it's a bad case, it just isn't great if you (or your child) is going to be in and out of it all the time. I'd recommend instead the standard 48 slot carrying case:
Hot Wheels Molded 48 Car Case - Colors May Vary
It may not hold as many cars, but it's much better made.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap cheap cheap case!!!!!!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY, December 28, 2009

I have been wanting to get a hot wheels case for my son (3 years) for all of his cars. We bought this case yesterday at Target (for a lot less than Amazon's price BTW) A day later one of the doors has already fallen off and the hidges are starting to crack, it DOES NOT open well and it is only a matter of time before it will break. Making a trip back to Target to return it~

Back to the drawing board Hot Wheels Company, this case really sucks!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not A Happy Camper!, January 12, 2009

I am sorry to say, that, this is the first time I have ever had to write a negative review and I hope it will be the last. I ordered this as a gift from my father for my oldest son. Upon ordering, amazon.com stated in order to receive by Christmas to choose standard shipping. So, naturally, that's what I did to save shipping charges. Well, I didn't think it was going to come on time. The other items I ordered in that same order had arrived 1-2 weeks before this item. So, I emailed the company inquiring about the product and never heard back from them. A few days later (2 days before Christmas) I received the item in a box that I couldn't even believe! So many holes and half open. The item itself wasn't wrapped or surrounded by anything to protect it. Needless to say, It was broken at the hinges on one side. Plastic completely broken off, can't be fixed. So now I have to go through the hassle of sending it back and paying for shipping all over again! I've been shopping online for several years now, and this is my first bad experience. I've been lucky until now, but I would not recommend anyone to order this product or any other product from ariesmix182 (through amazon.com)! The plastic hinges look as if they would have broken anyway over time. We have a square case made just like this one and the hinges broke on that one too in no time from opening and closing the case. That's why my son wanted a new one!
