Expand Your Horizon Vertically
The Hot Wheels Wall Tracks Starter Set takes the usual racing systems up off the floor and onto your walls, allowing speeds, stunts, tricks, and turns to reach new levels of intensity and fun. A collection of parts including a diverter switch, flap-ramp, steep drop ramp, and even a 360-degree loop make up this base set. These parts all use the vertical terrain to push the car toward impressive velocity and a new range of tricks that aren't possible on typical floor tracks.
Full-Color Hanging Template for Easy Assembly
Assembly of the Wall Tracks Starter Set is easy with the included instructions. They include written and visual descriptions, and the paper also serves as a hanging template, guiding your track placement easily to the correct positions. Adult assembly is required to stick the base of the tracks in place with the included 3M Command Strips, but the rest of the assembly can be learned by children with some practice and will stimulate cognitive skills.
Excellent Base for Other Wall Tracks
The included tracks have a number of path variations built in that our testers enjoyed exploring and testing. This experimentation, along with the vertical expansion of the tracks, inspires creative thinking about the possibilities of extending the tracks to never-before-seen racetrack variations with other Hot Wheels Wall Tracks sets.

Consumer Critiques

This toy was a lot of enjoyable and each my son and daughter played with it all day. My son got it as a birthday gift. It was wonderful to see them both playing together. I believe it is fantastic that all the hot wheels tracks can be inter connected and I like that I do not have to drill holes in the wall to get these to stay on the wall. The directions are superb at showing you how to set it up on the wall.
The 1st difficulty I've had is that the loop on the track does not function correct and the vehicles get stuck there typically. Despite the fact that the youngsters do not appear to thoughts this I acquire it frustrating. The other issue we have had is that children do not just let the cars roll down the track all the time occasionally they like to push them. Twice in as numerous days we have had the command adhesive come off the wall and pull a coat of paint with them. The one additional command adhesive helped the 1st time the track let go I recommend buying some extras with the track if you get 1.

From the pictures they have of the product, I expected it to be a little larger than it was. As it stands (or hangs as the case may well be), it fit on my fridge door. Of course, I by no means paid significantly attention to the curvature of the fridge door, so I had to add an extension to the 1st top left piece to get it around the ice dispenser... But it worked, and stuck extremely well due to the good surface.
The template is simple and easy to follow, and the anchor points are labeled A via F and even have little arrows that act as your angle meter, to make certain it is hanging at the suitable angle.
Track pieces snap into location quite securely, and I've had no problems with something loose or inoperative. Some reviewers mentioned the loop mechanism didn't function well for them, but we've had no challenges with it. Just make confident there's no pressure on any side, given that the very first time I had it hung, it pressed a bit against that curvature of my fridge, nothing seriously noticeable, but adequate to hamper operation until I adjusted one particular of the anchor points.
The automobile went through the track just fine, not hanging up anyplace.
As with most hot wheel toys, it is quite cool at initially, and the idea is quite slick - no tracks to "choose up" or items the kid leaves laying on the floor. But the replay value isn't so amazing because it really is just the same factor over and more than and more than. My son extended his excitement by adding additional issues to crash into, but after about half an hour, it just sat on the fridge, some thing for me to watch out for so I would not let the door open itself all the way to its stops... He went back to it once the second day, but then took the car and had a great deal more enjoyable driving it more than the furniture, jumping more than the amazing chasms amongst the couch and rocking chair, and driving it on the counters. The track has been dormant due to the fact.
I can see some a lot more excitement as you add to it, since this is just the starter set, the "center" of what you can get separately, but by the time you buy adequate of the other pieces to extend it to decent playability, you could've bought something much more considerable with a longer play time for the kid. And the other pieces will just be a great deal more of the very same as nicely after the very first small although of seeing how it all looks.
And the orange top piece is not even a component it rolls down - that's basically the holding pen for cars, they start at the first blue piece suitable prior to the prime perfect turn. So all in all this has two turn pieces, and a loop.
So the idea and execution are especially nicely carried out, but they truly have to have to expand the fundamental set some to add some worth to it.
