“There's nothing much to say about this set. It looks really cool and it has some nice valuable pieces which are printed. In fact: We get no stickers in this set. We also don't get any minifigs with this car. But I love the play feature where you move the car back with the... More pull-back-engine which allows you to launch the car better.”
