Tomica Super Big Playset Review

My wide-eyed and excited 7 year old tore into the box ready to make a cool train set up. We pieced it together and found that there is nothing that KEEPS it together. Everything just lays on top of the supports or loosely within the plastic forms. If you accidentally nudge any one part of the track, supports, or buildings (as children often do), the whole thing gets screwed up requiring lots of repair and reset time. With a younger sibling wanting to play, too, we spent the day dealing with a crying child whose train set kept falling apart. Nothing (no clips, slots, boundaries - nothing) holds the track or supports in place so the whole thing is very unstable. We thought this would be such a fun toy, but it only brought frustration for everyone.
In addition, the way the tracks are laid out, you either have to buy another train or manually move the trian from the upper track to the lower track. It is not all connected. The set comes with one train.
I am also concerned about the road pieces. They are simply cardboard cutouts with a glossy surface. They will easily bend or tear and be ruined with a wet spill. It would have been better with plastic.
All in all we were disappointed with this product. This is our first Tomica purchase and I think it will be our last.

Byun Byun Circuit Tomica World (Japan) Review

This is an excellent circuit for matchbox and takara die cast cars to whiz round. Has rollers in the middle of the straights to give your car a boost. Half the time, the cars will get to the other roller and continue going round without any assistance. Larger models like trucks and vans wont fit inside the rollers. Well made from durable plastics. The rollers will even sound an alarm if a car is stuck inside it.
They had it on display at a shopping mall in Hong Kong and my 3 year old was captivated by it. Amazingly crazy prices being charged on Amazon, as it costs HKD299 (US$38) retail at Sogo and HKD 329 (US$42) at ToysRUS Hong Kong.
I also bought the byun tower addon for HKD499 (US$64).
Main downside like most Takara toys here is that the instructions are all in Japanese, which is not a big problem as its pretty easy to set this one up.
