This toy is a ton of fun. We purchased it for our 3.5 year old, but the 6 and 2 year olds play with it just as much. It is so simple for them to build vehicles, we can get a little peace and quiet! Speaking of quiet, the clicking sound is very annoying and loud, however...if you remove the 4 screws from the main piece (with the battery compartment) carefully, you will find the culprit. There is a plastic piece that clicks against one of the gears and is held on by one screw. Simply remove it and put the top back on. Tada. Don't let the noise keep you from this cool toy.

These are fabulous blocks. My 2.5 year old got these recently from his grandmother, and loves them. He can build all sorts of cool things. The only problem with them is that when you put the battery in to make the motors work it makes a horrible, and I mean horrible! clicking sound. Its very loud, and absolutely unnecessary. It would be perfect without the clicks! Just don't make the mistake of putting the batteries in to begin with!

This toy is both EXTREMELY noisy and very frustrating to my children.
The toy is frustrating because if you so much as breath near it the whole thing falls to pieces and needs to be built again. My 3 year old has learned to work around the fragility of his creations and is just careful since he likes to watch it motor around the floor.
Then there is the NOISE. This thing is absolutely ridiculous in the amount of noise it makes. I was constantly making the kids go play somewhere else because it is just amazing how loud it is. This may be the loudest toy we have and we have alot of toys.
So... I took matters into my own hands. I opened the motor to seek and destroy the clicker.
For anyone who is so completely irritated with this thing as I was, it is actually fairly easy to remove the clicker. Don't do what I did and take the whole thing apart to be sitting in a pile of gears thinking "now where is that clicker".
Set the motor on a surface with the screws facing up. Remove the four screws then gently lift the cover straight up. Now flip that cover over. Do you see the little white thingie sticking out? That is your noise maker, unscrew its one screw and throw the screw and the piece of plastic in the garbage. Now put the cover back on and you are good to go.
