Transformers Movie 2 Performance Track
My 3 year old son and 2 year old daughter both play with this toy for hours on end. They know how to operate it and contradictory to another review, they can use the launcher with ease. They love to collect all their cars and play with all of them on here, it is totally worth every penny I paid for it!

We just purchased and assembled this toy for my 7yo son. It was easy enough to put together with adult help. My son pointed out the pin on the flat piece which inserts into the launcher… if the pin is not facing up as the instructions indicate, then launching will be near impossible. We assembled it correctly and have no issues launching. However, there are some issues with this toy. First, there is no volume control and it is quite loud. Loud enough that I require my son to play with it in another room so the rest of us can have conversation. Second, the Bumblebee, Optimus Prime and “finish line” pieces are simply part of the exterior box which you must cut out yourself. The Bumblebee and Optimus Prime pieces have to be bent in such a way that they tear or break easily. Luckily these pieces are not necessary to make the toy work, but they look cool and your child will want them cut out and attached so it will look like it does on the box. They also do not cut out easily with a regular pair of (adult) scissors. Seems like it would have been simple enough to make these parts from plastic with stickers on them rather than part of the actual box. If the box is damaged, then these pieces are likely damaged too. And, because you have to cut up the box to fully assemble the toy, you no longer have it to return or store the toy if necessary. Third, this toy is not easily moved from room to room. Pieces come apart and for the most part they can be easily reassembled, but the cardboard pieces fall off and become more damaged each time they have to be re-attached. Lastly, for the price tag, this toy is not a good value. It looks and feels like a less than twenty dollar toy, not a forty to fifty dollar toy.
