The HOT WHEELS® Track Builder 5-Lane Tower Starter Set Offers Hours of Action Packed Racing Fun for Boys and Girls (Review)

Disclosure:  I was sent a sample from the vendor in order to write up an honest review.  All views shared are mine and mine alone.



Just because I have two girls doesn't mean we dont' have train sets and race tracks up throughout the house? How about you?  Do you find your girls are just as much into Hot Wheels cars, planes, trains and other so-called boy toys, than your sons are?  So,when I asked recently if I wanted to review the HOT WHEELS® Track Builder 5-Lane Tower Starter Set, I knew my girls...and husband would be all for helping me out -- and, that they were!  


They haven't stopped playing with the track builder since we received it a short time ago.  And, for Savannah's upcoming 4th birthday, my husband is surprising her with add-ons for their track, which they has since added to, along with a dozen new flashy Hot Wheels cars. :-)

Even though my husband didn't get that boy he wanted so that they could play cars like he did with his brothers growing up, he still gets to live his dream with our daughters, and they are all for it, thanks to hit Disney movies like Cars and Planes, as well as toys like the Hot Wheels Track Builder being "so cool."  What kid, both boys and girls, would want to resist racing cars down the tracks they build?  

If you are not familiar with the Hot Wheels Track Builder sets, including the HOT WHEELS® Track Builder 5-Lane Tower Starter Set, which my family was sent to review, here is more about this amazing track that will have your kids cheering on their favorite cars, as they race them down the different tracks they set up...

For super action racing fun at high speeds and exciting heights!

HOT WHEELS® Track Builder 5-Lane Tower Starter Set

The HOT WHEELS® Track Builder 5-Lane Tower Starter Set is only $24.99 and offers enough track so that your child can create different layouts.  It does only come with one car, so if you don't have other Hot Wheels cars laying around the house, you will want to pick up a few more for siblings, so that they don't find.  

My girls have since added to their growing Hot Wheels car collection and added more tracks and track building stunts and accessories, to make their time spent racing their cars with Daddy around this easy to put together and store away track, that much more exciting.

I have been having a blast snapping photos of the girls and my husband playing on the floor, as they see whose car is faster on the newly created track they create.  


With so many different layouts you can create, I don't think I have seen the same track stay in place for long.

And, my nephew who is 7 years old, is also loving the HOT WHEELS® Track Builder set, and has been the go-to house for the neighborhood kids to come and play at.  The boys will bring over their favorite Hot Wheels cars and spend a whole afternoon racing and making fun car noises. :-)

So, as you can see the HOT WHEELS® Track Builder sets are loved by boys, but also enjoyed by girls, and dads alike.  This is one toy I don't see my kids growing out of anytime soon, as they continue to play with it daily. And, when we go to the the store, they are always looking for accessories and add-ons for it, to make playing with their track set that much more fun.

Do you have a Hot Wheels fan in your house with a birthday coming up?  Or, do you want to surprise them with a special gift for completing their summer reading or helping out around the house this summer?  The HOT WHEELS® Track Builder sets would make for the perfect gift.  

To learn more about the HOT WHEELS® Track Builder sets and other toys from Hot Wheels visit http://www.hotwheels.com/.  You will also find cool videos, games and more at this site, including a virtual track your child can create and race cars online with.  My nephew thinks this is the coolest thing, as always asks to visit this site when we give the kids computer time.
