“Overall, I'd recommend this to a friend. Definitely more of a parts pack, with some new (and old!) parts.”

“Police car has great details and design especially with stickers attached, blue car not half bad either. Great value especially considering the price of normal road pieces. Great cars. Think of these tiny racers sets as being more comparable to die-cast model cars in size... More and play experience, and with that in mind this is one of the better ones.”
