The trailer uncouples from the tractor too as soon as the tractor is turned. The detachable trailer sides do not click together positively and come off too easily during play. Looks good but little play value as a set. Wish I had not bought this.

Our kids loved these when they got one for Christmas and wanted to buy more with their Christmas money.
The trouble is there are 12 types of Zibit, but only 6 remote control frequencies, so when we turn more than one on, they all respond to the same remote control, making it impossible for the kids to play together.
This is not explained on the packaging, only in the small print on the instructions inside the packaging. They say that if you buy Zibits from different "teams" they should run on different frequencies. My son wanted to complete a team, but the whole team runs on the same frequency.

Scalextric Drift 360
The Scalextric Drift 360 set lets you fly round the track sideways, backwards or even facing the right way. Thanks to the Nissan GT-R racing cars' clever 360° guide blades , it's easy to take corners the spectacular way and drift all the way around the 392cm long figure-of-eight circuit . There's even a crossover piece in the middle to make sure there are plenty of high-speed collisions and never a quiet moment. The Drift Kings set comes with two controllers and a mains transformer, and needs 180cm x 110cm of floor or table space to set up. Scalextric Drift Kings features
1:32 scale red and silver Nissan GT-R cars
360° guide blades let cars drift round corners
Figure-of-eight track measures 392cm

well after having 3 boys in the house and all into different things it becomes quite hard to find a toy that can be played with and satisfy the needs of more than 1 child, well this toy does just that for transformers fans and marvel mad children and adults out there this is a fantastic toy. The constructio of the toy is very solid and there are no fiddly little parts and it has stood the test of being smashed into the decepticons that were purchased at the same time. i would recommend this toy to anyone over the age of 6 as the sequence of transforming is quite complex but not too difficult, it is a great toy for manual dexterity and fine motor skills. The bright colours used on the toy are very vibrant and add to the characteristics that are iron man it is almost true to the comic book iron man version and in true transformer style converts from iron man to car mode and back again. The added bonus that this is not just a 1 in a kind there are a few marvel transformer crossover toys in the series including spiderman and venom and to make the buy even more spectacular they are at the moment half price so go on and buy 1 you will make a marvel or transformer fan very happy.

Bought this for my 3 year old daughter for Christmas as she loves Postman Pat and is very into playing hide and seek so thought it would be perfect for her. However, the volume level is extremely loud and has no way to alter it and the actual game play was not that good. The hand control piece just seemed to say the same thing all the time, regardless of how close we were to finding 'hiding Pat' and at one point we had Pat and the handpiece in both our hands and it still didn't detect that we were close! The idea is great but all in all I'm afraid I don't rate this toy. My daughter has now added Pat to her cuddly toy collection instead.

I bought two of these as Christmas presents for my boys and although the product had potential, the boys (including myself) could not fly the model for more that a few seconds. The Dragonflies kept veering to the right, despite adjusting the trim. I agree people will need plenty of space and even in a park, both models still kept going towards the right and diving down. The wings are flimsy but can be 'repaired' with tape. What do I think about the future of this model? Like my son's Dragonflies, they will dive downwards and then forgotten about. Avoid.
