[caseymusician]

Thank you for this review. I love toys so much.

[lighning95000]

i want the town sold sepretly

[dulcechicaxox]

where did you get it

[racegrooves]

@dulcechicaxox I bought the Radiator Springs Play Town at Kmart.

[HWcollector707]

I like these playsets for displaying my cars

[benjenden1]

The Fillmore what you used at 5:54 - 6:20 it isn't Race Team Fillmore it is Pit Crew Fillmore

[lighning95000]

iam soooo getting this

[racegrooves]

@lighning95000 This set is very well built!

[Mmeccles19]

That price was a total shocker. I don't understand the retail space cost due to the fact that walmarts had complete aisles for cars when the new movie came out.

[lewheels1]

6:27 style parking.

[racegrooves]

@lewheels1 Fancy pants!

[happydude568]

hey atleast its by tha some company from hotwheels :D

[articulatedcomics]

I love that perspective my man... Cars don't roll very well in the package, take them out and play with them! I do think "Cars" movie toys are going to be worth a mint in 20 years though! I miss collecting these, when my kids were smaller we had "Cars everywhere!

[gitrdone1975]

it almost looks like the old hot wheels playset,nice video

[DSR505]

@gitrdone1975 Ya, thats what i thought, those were great.

[MonsterJamLover1987]

instructions are just for making sure you did it right

[racegrooves]

@MonsterJamLover1987 (grin)

[MonsterJamLover1987]

@racegrooves i saw the instructions as soon as you opened it and laughed when you tossed them across the table

the only instructions that aren't made into airplanes are ones for lego and K-NEX sets

[IZ4U2nJOY]

Nice play set looks like fun. Just a bit to much money for me. The gas pump is awesome.

[racegrooves]

@IZ4U2nJOY You know kids are going to like the ding-ding!

[lachyloveslego122]

 hey were did you get the bug car

[racegrooves]

@lachyloveslego122 The VW Bug was in a 2-pack. I don't recall the name.

[jeffgordonfan2462]

[racegrooves]

@jeffgordonfan2462 Yeah, my brain is thinking ahead of what to say and my tongue spits something else out =)

[97nnamdi]

[bullmangotti]

[racegrooves]

@bullmangotti LOL! Yeah, I noticed that after I uploaded the video =)

[bullmangotti]

I auto be in pictures

[tortoisetom1]

Thats a nice Playset.

[racegrooves]

@tortoisetom1 Expensive, but well built!

[Lionferrari777]

it wold be cool if it had a trafic light so you cold recreate the seans with fillmore and sgt at the trafic light

[racegrooves]

@Lionferrari777 Hmmm... Maybe I could take a traffic light from my HW World playsets!

[520thDesertRats]

i wish i had more Disney cars so i could get that

[racegrooves]

@520thDesertRats Yes, this playset doesn't exactly make sense unless you use the Disney CARS with it.

[megacomicbooknerd]

Nice track seems king of expensive but worth it

[racegrooves]

@megacomicbooknerd I agree. Expensive but it should last a long time!

[FadeToBlack982]

For that price, it would've been nice if they had included a vehicle, but it still looks like a great set that's worth the price. Lots of fun for play and display. Even better, it doesn't look like there's much (if anything) that will get lost easily!

Along with the classic Hot Wheels Sto N Go sets, I'm also reminded of the Micro Machines Super City Toolbox playset from the 90s (mostly because the toolbox was also red).

[racegrooves]

@FadeToBlack982 You should have been with me when I was with my son as I bought it. I was ranting and raving about the cost. And you don't even get a car! I don't believe I have any of the Galoob Micro Machine stuff but I do have the Hot Wheels versions... I just woke up so I can't remember the name LOL!

[DaddyIvo]

Nice playset I kinda' wish they'd make a more "urban/city" playset. Yet, it's about Radiator Springs! ; )

[racegrooves]

@DaddyIvo I haven't seen CARS 2 yet. I will be getting the DVD so that I can know what I'm talking about when I do CARS 2 videos LOL! Is Radiator Springs in the sequel?

[DaddyIvo]

@racegrooves Yeah, Radiator Springs is in the sequel, but there's also scene's set in fictional Europe!

[SuperConcretepumper]

Lol at your laugh when Filmore poses after the bell. Thats a great little set.

[racegrooves]

@SuperConcretepumper Yeah, I got to make it interesting. That's what people tune in for =)

[FluffyJetProductions]

awesome playset...lots of awesome details...great review...

[racegrooves]

@FluffyJetProductions Thanks! I like this playset and I will be using it as a backdrop to my Disney diecast videos.

[FluffyJetProductions]

@racegrooves ...you're welcome. That's a neat idea! It will make a beautiful backdrop!

[giggleblaggle]

Well I'll be. That set looks like so much fun! Looks like it was inspired by those old late '70s, early '80s unfoldable Hot Wheels city playsets that now sell for over $100 on eBay. Looks like a lot of fun, and even looks somewhat like a realistic type of city set while still maintaining the "stunt set" feel. What a great design! And then you had to ruin my fantasy by telling us the price tag! :) That's pretty pricey, but I guess worth the investment. Been a while since I've seen a toy that nice

[racegrooves]

@giggleblaggle Yes, correct. I was at a seminar at the 2010 HW Convention where Mattel was talking about up and coming products. They asked those in attendance if they thought that Hot Wheels could make Stow 'n Go's again. There was some interest until I asked what would be the retail cost. They stated that because of the size and the amount of shelf space that the originals would require would necessitate a $50 price point. I told them that they were dead in the water....

[racegrooves]

@giggleblaggle Mattel may have a vocal handful of people who want Stow 'n Go's to return but in my opinion, a $50 Hot Wheels theme would not be successful. Collectors like to buy $1 to $5 cars, not $50 playsets. That's when they told me that the PIxar group was going to be making this product. Now, THAT could be successful because of the targeted age group.

[MongooseBikeRacer]

nice playset

[racegrooves]

@MongooseBikeRacer Yes, definitely a nice playset!

[bttfdmc1984]

the kid on the back looks like he is about to smash the set lol

[racegrooves]

@bttfdmc1984 The kids on the packages are often kids of Mattel employees =) He does look like he could be about to pound on the playset!

[heathkinn]

wow pretty expensive......but very cute...

[racegrooves]

@heathkinn Yes, this playset is definitely cute. I wonder if it is too expensive to be a give item and whether or not relatives will know to buy it for their little ones?

[ToyPitStop]

Great Playset :) But we passed right now on it for the price it had.

[racegrooves]

@ToyPitStop You should have heard me ranting and raving about the cost of this playset and it didn't even include a car!
