 ... the string and helps to propel the car along once a small rip cord has been pulled. The main parts are the side towers which need to be slotted into the plastic bases. Frustratingly, once attached these bases can't be removed which does mean that the towers no longer fit neatly back into the box they came in. This is something that I find really frustrating as a parent, trying to keep everything neatly contained and tidy between uses. The remainder of the set up is fairly straightforward, with a couple of lumino...more

Like many parents, I'm always tempted by bargain toys so love Sainsbury's annual half price toy sale (although this year's 'up to half price' offering was pretty poor.) I have picked up many excellent bargains during that sale in recent years but amongst the gems have been some really unimpressive purchases. One of my most disappointing purchases has to be this 'Tightrope Terror' playset produced by GX Racers. I paid just £9.99 for this set, with an RRP of around £20, so felt that at that price it would be a great 'filler' present for Christmas for my boys. I was wrong. The premise of this set sounds really promising, as the (rather dated) packaging shows a ...  Read the complete review

One of the worst toys we have ever purchased. (510 words)

I found this toy in a box this evening, and was wondering if it was still made and if so if there were a review category for it. I found the toy at Amazon, now for £12.27 which is much better then the £22 I paid for it last year. Still I would not recommend this toy, even at .27 pence. The idea is that you stretch a tightrope between two plastic towers and the car races across it. I suppose this must be theoretically possible, unless trick photography was used for the commercials. the set includes two towers, the tight rope string, a rip cord to make the car go, a gyroscope racer, and a couple of bits of track. In order to work the string must be completely ...  Read the complete review

GX Racers Tightrope Terror Playset: It Doesn't Even Work!! (501 words)

The GX Racers Tightrope Terror Playset is one to be avoided at all costs! It retails at around £19.99 from Toys R Us, Amazon, Argos and Woolworths, and honestly isn't even worth that. In fact I wouldn't want to have this back in my house if they paid me to take it because it caused so much upset on Christmas Day. The concept of this toy is that you have two stands with a tightrope running between the two. You then have a little car with a grooved wheel underneath which is supposed to run along the tightrope. There's a short ramp that can go off the end of one of the stands, and a friction strip of plastic that is slotted in a hole in the car, and pulled ...  Read the complete review
