Mattel Matchbox Pop Up Deluxe Construction Site Adventure Set

My almost-three year old son loves the pop-up fire station, and kept eying this one in the catalog, so I broke down and bought it for him. I will say he still enjoys it, and we've had it three weeks. He pretty much won't let us put it away without asking for it to be opened again. But if you already have one of these pop-up toys, you don't need two. I'd just buy a stand-alone crane, since that's the best part of the toy. This was expensive (at $[...]) compared to the other pop-up toys and I'm not sure it added much to our collection of toys.

The first Pop-up Playset I bought was for my Favorite little Guy, Drake. When he was about 2 he started driving all his cars thru my daughters doll house. One day I saw a Pop-up playset in the store. I bought it thinking he may enjoy to drive his cars in the playset Vs. the doll house. He was thrilled!!! I think his Mom was glad too. Her son's favorite toy wasn't My daughter's Dollhouse. I have gotten EVERY single one that has come out. They fold up to nothing, they are very durable, and the cool thing is that they can be put in a bookbag along with other Pop-up playsets and off you go! I also think that they get better with each new one Matchbox designs! Oh and they have a spot that has a picture to show kids where each piece goes! A must have for every car loving little boy! And if they like to build things this construction set will thrill them!These Pop-Up Playsets are STILL his FAV toys!!!

We own a few of Matchbox's Pop up sets. This one is another great addition! It opens/folds up easily. It is VERY durable (even when our 10 month old is pulling at it, etc). My son loves the huge crane. I love the fact that it folds up into a tiny suitcase. This toy would be great to take along on trips. We take it to restaurants (since it is easy to bring along!). It keeps our 3 year old happy, occupied & quiet.

Bought this for my 3 1/2 year old- lots of small pieces, not much to do with it- overall all he's not extremely thrilled with it.

I bought this for $12.99 so I was shocked when I saw how much it was today. Wow, did I get a deal! I bought it for a friends son for his birthday. Wish I would have gotten 2 at that price since as soon as my son saw it he wanted it! So far so good as durability!

We ordered this for my son's 3rd birthday a few weeks ago. He and his 5 year old sister enjoy playing with it and then figuring out how to arrange everything in the set when it's time to put it away. I was disappointed when I saw how small it is, but that doesn't seem to take away the fun for them. They still enjoy rolling the cars on it and playing with all of the ramps.

I gave this to a 8 year old boy for Christmas. Told by parents he loves it, but it seems a little flimsy to them.

Son loves it (5) ......... .. ... ... ... ... ..l .. . . . . . . . .
