Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Let me start by saying that I am usually easy to please. My son received this toy for his first birthday after spreading the word that we could use a fresh supply of bath toys. Well, let's just say that we're still looking for bath toys. He (and our 2 1/2 year old) was excited to use it in the tub. Unfortunately, as others have stated, it's just awful. It doesn't float, the cars are just molded plastic so they don't actually have wheels. The cars are made in a way so you can use one to scoop water, one to sprinkle water (there's little holes in the roof so you can flip it upside-down, fill it and supposedly sprinkle water), etc. I thought the dual-purpose cars was a good idea, but unfortunately it was very poorly executed. The cars are SO small that they fit VERY LITTLE water and it really is no fun at all. Five minutes into the first bath with these new toys the boys had let them sink to the bottom of the tub in favor of the cups and squirt toys they already had. Ugh. I have the gift receipt so I will be returning them and informing the store that they do not work properly.

Thomas the Tank Engine Rolling Luggage Travel Bag Review

Thomas the Tank Engine Rolling Luggage Travel Bag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you have seventy-five dollars burning a hole in your pocket and you just have to have a Thomas the Tank Engine rolling suitcase, please, please, please take fifty of it to the mall first. Then, with the last twenty-five, go to ANY other seller of this cheaply made novelty product and knock yourself out. You will have a cute, overpriced rolling duffel bag that your kids will absolutely adore plus another 50 bones worth of merchandise of your choice.
The bag is essentially a toy that is marginally useful as a light-duty travel bag as well. You would never check it, but the kids will love rolling it through the airport. It's cheap and thin; I have some made-in-China cosmetic cases that are tougher than this. The zipper seems frail and you wouldn't want to overtax it by filling the bag to the point of stuffing. The handle works great for about four seconds and then sticks thereafter, making it impossible for a young child to extend and retract on their own. No big deal; you can always help them... but every time, you'll wonder if it's about to break, because it's flimsy and struggles to perform. Count on losing the steam funnel the first time it's pulled on, but this doesn't affect the use.
All in all, it's a piece of "luggage" worth about ten bucks, and you're paying another fifteen for the character licensing. If your kids will swoon over it, it may be worth the 25 (as it was for us), but never EVER pay what they're asking here. It's honestly triple the going rate. Usually amazon is a deal, but not this time.

This is an amazing product. It is sturdy, does not require constant fixing like the regular trackmaster trains do. It goes forward and backwards, enabling a lot of fun with split tracks and switches. It is just so much fun for kids and grownups. And is easy enough to use for a young toddler (unlike most remote control cars).
I wouldn't normally give a high educational rating for electronic toys - but this train took our trackmaster interest to a whole new level, enabling so much creative work! Love it love it love it!

I have been looking for a push and go toy for my son. He absolutely loves this toy, however, this picture is deceiving. You only receive 1 toy (not a set of 3 as the picture would lead you to believe). Also it doesn't give you an option to choose which toy you'd like (airplane, truck, or train).

Lionel Barrel Shed Review

Lionel Barrel Shed
Average Reviews:

I am begining to very slowly amass some buildings for my ever-ongoing project O Scale layout. While a little assembly is required, it is highly simplistic snap-together material. It's a shame it's hard to find more O Scale buildings/locomotives on Amazon, but what I have found is interesting and leaves me hope that the company will put up more. Small, quaint and worth the money. As with most all O Scale, things are more expensive than HO or N. That's just the nature of the beast.

EAGLE GAMES Railroad Tycoon the board game Review

EAGLE GAMES Railroad Tycoon the board game
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
So you're looking for a train game that's a step up from Ticket to Ride, without being too hardcore or complicated? Look no further: Railroad Tycoon is your game. It is one of the best games I've ever played, and one of my all-time favourite medium-weight games. One word of advice: the original Railroad Tycoon game from 2005 has since been improved and upgraded as a new edition, published under the name Railways of the World in 2009, and this new and improved edition is the one to get. It's the same game, but just has the benefit of some tweaks to the rules, as well as an additional map.
Both Railroad Tycoon and Railways of the World are fantastic. Don't make the mistake of thinking (as I first did after seeing photos of a massive board and incredible components) that this is just for middle-aged men who drive trains for a living and play with miniature railroads as a hobby, or that this is just for hardcore gamers who like complicated and heavy games, and that this game is not for you. Despite the glamorous and epic appearances, this is just another medium-weight game - only way better than most. The typical strategy gamer will find much to love about this series of games, not least that it is more thematic than many eurogames, and comes with gorgeous over-produced components, and offers substance beyond typical gateway games without taking on the complexity of heavy gamer's games.
So what's the appeal? First of all, Railroad Tycoon has an impressive pedigree, being the offspring of a Martin Wallace system that has proved most successful in Age of Steam, an ever-popular gamer's game from 2002. It was simplified for a wider audience as Railroad Tycoon in 2005, and then further refined as Railways of the World in 2009, receiving the benefit of further improvements in a 2010 reprint. Railroad Tycoon proved to be a big and popular hit, and still enjoys a very respectable reputation as one of the best in modern games.
The basic concept of the game is that players are railway executives, who borrow money to finance the building of their personal network of train tracks across a sprawling map, which they use to deliver goods to various cities, and thus increase their income and earn points. In the process, there are all kinds of short term and long term objectives, as well as steady interaction and competition to keep things interesting.
Most importantly, Railroad Tycoon is more friendly and accessible than the tougher experience offered by the original Age of Steam. Its strength lies in the theme, which is closely connected with the pick-up-and-deliver mechanic, and the economic system that is at the heart of the game. When combined with lavishly produced pieces, colourful components, and a game that is playable by the average gamer and can be completed in 2-3 hours, the Railways of the World system has generated some serious staying power and appeal.
Railroad Tycoon contains one map for the Eastern US, which is ideal for 4-6 players. The newer Railways of the World edition also includes a map for Mexico (ideal for 2-3 players) - although this latter map has been made available separately from the publisher Eagle Games as Railways of Mexico for Railroad Tycoon owners. Further expansion maps available separately usually only include a map and cards, so you will need the components of the base game to play them. In other words: this is the place to get started!
I love the theme, the components, the game-play, the depth, the interaction, the sense of building, the length, the replayability, the expansions, and the fun - it's obvious that there's a lot going for this great game! So if you find Age of Steam too tough, or Ticket to Ride too simple, as most gamers will, then Railroad Tycoon (aka Railways of the World) is for you, and can rightly be considered the ultimate and the quintessential train game for the typical modern gamer! With the benefit of multiple expansions that are now available, it's an outstanding and ideal medium-weight train game. - EndersGame @ BGG

I am completely in awe of this doll. I have never played with, collected, or even noticed a Barbie doll until I saw this one. I purchased her originally for my daughters collection of African American Barbie dolls. But after 2 weeks, I decided to open her and keep her for myself. Now, I have a new hobby and possibly career. I love her skin tone, her hair, eyes, her endless dark chocolate legs, everything about her. As an African American woman I was just so happy to see such a beautiful doll with hair like my own, short and curly. A few Barbies with flocked hair do exist, as I have learned since purchasing this doll, and I hope they continue to design more of them.

Cars Mack Track Challenge Review

Cars Mack Track Challenge
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I couldn't believe how cheap it was made considering the money it costs. It comes with 1 car, Lightning McQueen. It is not a metal car, but light plastic. That is why it works on the track. If you put a regular Car on it (Chic, King...) it doesn't work as well because they are metal and are heavier. They don't even always make it around the track. After about 1 hour of use, friction from the car hitting the sides of the track caused the stickers to peal off of the plastic McQueen car that came with the set. Then that car didn't work well because of the sticky residue on the track. It also uses up 4 "D" batteries in about 2 hours.
I would personally be embarrased if I released a product of this quality. The only positive thing I can say is, while it was working well that first hour, my boys loved it.

Kids love the skill and action-racing play with the motorized Cars Drift and Jump Speedway! The action starts as Lightning McQueen (included) boosts into high speed with the power booster. Next, you can make a lane change by pushing and holding the button to make Lightning McQueen take the infield route. But wait! Mack is on the track and he's drifting! If Lightning can zoom up Mack's loading ramp, he will launch right out of the top and into the inner lane to take the lead!

A New Train Adventure Begins! The Ticket to Ride Card Game delivers all of the excitement, fun and nail-biting tension of the original Ticket to Ride board game, but with several unique game-play twists in a new stand-alone, card game format. Players collect sets of illustrated Train cards which are then used to complete Destination Tickets - routes between two cities depicted on each ticket. But before their Train cards can be used, players must face the risk of "train-robbing," where another player may force them to lose their hard-earned cards. The Ticket to Ride Card Game is for 2-4 players ages 8 and older. Contains 96 illustrated train car cards, 46 destination tickets, 6 big city prize cards, and a rulebook. Part of the Ticket to Ride series.
