 Great looks, poor quality Mar 31, 2008
I was lucky enough to find this toy brand new at a resale shop for $3 so I can't say that I didn't get my money's worth. That being said if you are about to drop $35 on this toy thinking it is durable enough to be something you can hand down from one child to the next you would be mistaken. Within a few times of being dismantled the inner screws that hold the plastic pieces in place came loose and eventually fell out. Because of it's design it is impossible to put the screws back in so the car no longer holds together firmly. However, my son couldn't care less. He still plays with this toy on a daily basis and when it falls apart he screams with joy, "Crash!" So maybe it's flaws make it the perfect toy. . . but really don't spend that much on a toy that will fall apart. If you want a quality wooden toy that will last for years look for other options.
 Great quality, fun toy for my boys Dec 28, 2007
My boys got this as a Christmas gift and it is by far their favorite toy. The car comes apart but can easily be put back together by little hands. I saw a review that they were made in China and I saw on the bottom of the toy that they were assembled in China (not sure what that means). It is worth checking with the manufacturer to see if they are indeed made in China or the US, if that's an important consideration. I have to tell you these are very well made (heirloom quality) so that to me justifies the price.

does anyone know where these are made? Dec 10, 2007
I see some websites stating that they are made in the USA while others say made in China. That are kind of expensive, but if I was helping supply jobs here in the states I don't mind paying more. If they are being made in china by someone making $1.00 a day than no way, besides, even if they are lead free, who wants to give someone a gift and have to explain, "Oh don't worry this is one of the safe toys from China!"

Great for developing gross and fine motor skills, and creativity Nov 23, 2007
This is an exceptional toy, that combines the gross motor skill training of block, the fine motor skills training of fitting pieces together in the correct manner, and the creativity of learning how to use different pieces to make unique creations.
It's solid wood, good quality, and well-packaged. The vehicles are made in the USA, although the wood is German beech wood.
The price is a bit high, but this isn't a "mass market" toy, this is a toy that seems like it could be passed down to your kid's children. Obviously, you can tell I was very happy with the toy.

Wooden Toys...Hardly Old-Fashioned Nov 08, 2007
You don't have to be middle-aged (and male) to appreciate a nice sports car. And you don't have to be all grown up to appreciate a beautifully-crafted wooden toy. This sportster is just one of many modern Automoblox car model do-it-yourself kits, including coupe, SUV, and compact for eco-concious kids. Every component in the Automoblox system is interchangeable: wheels, tires, roofs and wooden bodies, so the possibilities are endless. A great toy!
