Customer Rating: Summary: car carrying case Comment: This car case is a steal of a deal. 1/2 the cost of what it cost in the store. It seems durable so far we'll see how long it last with the kids. Great price and great for carrying your hot wheels cars. Customer Rating: Summary: Mom of C & N Comment: This is a great product for the price! My Children love putting their cars in the case and taking them out. It's great to quickly clean up all those little cars and put them away when company comes over. Amazon has this product for a lot less than other retail stores! Great Value/Great Price! I am Very happy with this product. I had looked at a lot of different storgae cases for my children's cars and this one is definitely the most durable. Customer Rating: Summary: Awesome Car case! Comment: My son loves his car case. You can put all types of car sizes in it. The plastic is very strong, it does not feel cheap at all. I would recommend this case. Customer Rating: Summary: Hot wheels car carrier Comment: The car case is terriffic! My son has now organized all his "BEST" cars in this case so they do not get scratched or damaged in any way. He is proud of his collection, and I am happy that no one steps on them by accident any more! Great item to own!! Customer Rating: Summary: Affordable Storage Comment: No, I did not purchase this product for a child. I did, however, purchase it to protect my OWN collection of Hot Wheels vehicles. Being an adult, my standards for the storage of collectible miniatures is probably a bit higher than, say, the standards of your average eight-year-old.
The container is made of durable hard plastic, and the "door" that swings open to reveal the 48 storage compartments is connected by reliable plastic "hinges." DO NOT stand up the container and open it unless you enjoy watching your collectibles ride out on their little wheels and hit the floor. It's best to lay the product flat and open it like a book. In all honesty, this product is not the ideal storage solution for even a semi-serious collector, but it IS durable, significantly more affordable, and provides quick access to all of your Hot Wheels.
The product is only educational in the sense that the collector may be learning to recognize car models and memorize information, and it's only fun if you enjoy admiring your collection every now and then. Therefore, I concluded that the product is neither educatinal nor fun in and of itself. But... why should it be? It's good storage for someone that doesn't want to spend more for less compartments, and it's a vast improvement over my old Hot Wheels storage system: ziplock bags. So... if you're like me and never really grew up; this is pretty darn great for the price. If you're buying this for a kid, I'd recommend showing the recipient how to lay the container flat (on the floor or a table) before adding or removing cars.
