Product Description
This road-ruling 10-inch big rig delivers double-action fun, transporting the champion Mach 6 and acting as a cool car launcher too. Drive the Mach 6 up the ramp to the top level and drive it around town. Then, move it down to the lower level and launch it out to start racing. It connects to Hot Wheels track sets, too. Carry it around wherever you go; you never know when you'll be challenged to a race. Not for use with some Hot Wheels vehicles.

Bad Movie Produces Good Toys II December 29, 2008
If the creative people behind Speed Racer the movie had shown as much brilliance as the genius who licensed the toy contract to Mattel's Hot Wheels division, it would have been a box office smash rather than a box office disaster.
This launcher big rig is a perfect example; one Speed Racer Hot Wheels car can be carried and launched onto the floor at the touch of a button after the docking station is swung out. Swing it back into place and press the button again to raise the elevator. Roll the car up the trailer roof/loading ramp and press the elevator back down. Push the car backwards to cock the launcher, and you are ready to do it again. It comes with one car, a Mach 5 WITHOUT any movie accessory.
Defects? It would have been nice if the launcher could be connected to Hot Wheels track like the Hot Wheels Speed Racer Carrying Case Launcher with car can be and if the cab had been either detachable or at least turnable.

I bought this for my 5 year old grandson who is a Speed racer fan for christmas. I hope he will like it and play with it alot. He lives in Oregon so we won't see him for christmas this year. It looks like he will have fun with it though.
 Mattel big rig October 3, 2008
This is a small truck and car set made of plastic. It works fine, but not that exciting.
Fun for 3 through 7, at least July 5, 2008
I took this to our 4-yr-old grandson for his birthday. It was his favorite present! His 6 1/2-yr-old sister wanted to play with it, too. We were wishing for at least one more car with the set.
Wonderful! May 31, 2008
A great toy for any Speed Racer fan! I got this for my 2 year old (almost 3) and he loves it! I had to show him how to work the launcher the first few times, but after that he was able to do it by himself. He is proud of all of his Speed Racers and shows them to everybody, even strangers!
