Hot Wheels Custom Motors Starter Set Review & Giveaway!

 ****This Giveaway Is Now Closed****

And the winner is...
 

Cindi S World!
Congrats!

I'll be contacting you shortly.

**************************************************************

Hot Wheels was one of the fabulous sponsors at the Mom 2.0 Summit. They were so sweet and gave each attendee one of these fabulous Custom Motors Starter Sets to take home.

 

I was really impressed with this particular toy (I mean c'mon, I'm mom to a boy) because it seems to offer a lot of bang for your buck. The set retails for around $20 and after seeing all the different ways to customize the car with the set, the price seemed spot on.





I also like the custom concept, because I think most kids would not tire of this toy easily.

I was not able to see Jackson in action with this toy since it is for kids Ages 4+. But here are the pro's and con's from my perspective.

This set is great for anyone with a child 4 or older who loves cars, building things, and manipulative play.

This set might not be a good fit for your family if you do not like toys with small parts. Each set comes with many small pieces and I recommend getting a storage box if you intend to purchase one.

Disclosure: I was given the opportunity to review and giveaway this product after meeting the Hot Wheels representatives. Hot Wheels provided this set for my giveaway free of charge. I was not paid for this review. These are my own honest opinions. At the close of this review I will keep nothing. I am giving away both sets Hot Wheels provided me, one here and one on facebook.

    They're at amazon right now for a pricey $29.99!...only one left too.
