Mattel Matchbox Pop Up- Adventure Set Construction Zone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have 4 of these different Pop Up Adventure Sets. We got most of them 6 months ago and they are still great toys. My son is 3 and he loves them. We only use them when we go to restaurants, but we eat out at least twice a week and usually more. I can carry a smaller one in my diaper bag and I keep them with a zip lock bag of matchbox cars. The are amazing because most of the pieces are attached so there aren't a ton of little parts floating around and getting lost! They can be hard to fold up, but after you do it a few times you get it figured out. Just don't throw away the directions until you've got it down. Great for a kid at a restaurant, or for times when they have to wait for a sibling to get done with an activity or something. The smaller sets (we like the car wash best in the smaller and the contruction zone best in the bigger sets) are great for an airplane ride, and both even work ok in a carseat. Kids of all ages watch my son play with his "buildings" when we are at breakfast. I highly recomend these sets.

Stern Pinball Avatar Arcade Pinball Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)this is a very nice pinball for the money. the voice overs are straight from the movie except when he says pandora will crap you out with zero warning, instead of @#$ you out. the only negative thing i can say about this machine is the magnet by the amp suit slings the ball with such velocity that its hard to react.

Matchbox Pop-Up Construction Play Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I almost didn't find this item, due to the rather inaccurate product desciption, but it's the 2nd MB set sold on Amazon, and part of 5 Adventure Sets. The other large one is the Dragon Castle, and the other 3 smaller ones are the Snake Jungle, Harbor Patrol, and Auto Center. They are all multi-level, interconnectable, playsets for Matchbox cars. Small enough to fold-up and take anywhere (after careful placement of the contents) and they become an even larger play area when you get more of them and interconnect them. You only get 2 ramps per set, and very odd positioning of the ramp connectors, making it somewhat difficult to get certain sets to link up, and nearly impossible to interconnect them all with ramps when you have all 5.
Despite the very thin plastic used, it's very durable, except for one side of one of the building frames, which keeps popping out of it's hinge (but does not break). There's a lot to do in this tiny area, with a wrecking ball, hook, two building roofs to snap on, a car launching cement mixer, and 2 levels of play. My son has a lot of fun with these playsets, and likes to close them up, and bring them from room to room. Each of these sets comes with one vehicle.
Parents of kids with younger siblings, please keep in mind that most of these have some smaller pieces, and the most hazardous are in the Snake Jungle set, with a VERY small trophy, and a round boulder. On most of the other sets, the small attachments were oblong shaped, and seem to be a tad larger than pieces that would normally present a choking problem.
All these sets are recommended for Matchbox fans, as the multi-level play areas, and even the thin scale design, add to the playability.
