Safire6 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 While at Hobby Town last weekend picking up some paint I saw this on the shelf. I thought it was the same Lightning McQueen that PatW posted about on Sept. 9 but it is not the same one. This one is not a snap together kit, it is assembled with plastic 'screws' so young hands can assemble it and disassemble it as many times as they want, and easily with the tool provided with the kit. The "tool" by the way doubles as the car's driveshaft and differential. Just snap it out of the chassis and use it as an allen wrench. Lift the hood and press a button on the engine and the headlights come on and three different sounds play: "ka-chow", squealing tires and revving engine. While not really a 'model' (it has only a few main parts) it is a nice, well engineered kit with nice vinyl (?) stickers and 'rubber' tires. A good 'starter' kit for toddlers that are into cars and building things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modlbldr Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Thanks for sharing. Although obviously well below the status of a "kit" that most of us would build, we all know or have children that, as you stated, are into cars or building. What a great subject to help build their interest in the hobby and you have shown us what is out there to help us do that. Thanks again.
