fun project
I have craft days with my nieces and nephews and they loved designing the cars. They didn't seem to care that they were plastic. I just ordered another box for the next time they come over.

what a hit!
My son wanted a Cars themed birthday party when he turned 5. I found these on OT and though some reviews said they were too small or cheap, I gave them a try, and I'm so glad I did. They are small but everyone there had so much fun designing their own cars. I put them out w/permanent markers and everyone, from ages 3-60 were coloring these things. I don't think there was a blank one left at the end of the party. The experience and fun everyone had was well worth it!

boys had fun
Boys had fun designing the cars. Cars were a little "cheap". Guess I would like them to be a bit heavier to run better. But, it was a good b'day project for the boys.

cheaply made
I bought these as an activity/favor item for my son's birthday. The cars are very lightweight and cheaply made. They are smaller than I anticipated, therefore making them very difficult to decorate for small hands. I was glad I had a bag of real metal cars on hand for the kids to use to race at the party and take home.

AWESOME
These were a BIG HIT at my son's 2nd birthday party. I had 8 stations set up, and this was a favorite for the kids. I bought a pack of 24 permanent markers and had an adult sitting close by to help. After they colored them, we set them out to dry...not sure if they would smear and smudge. Some kids wanted to make 2-3 cars. :)

Great activity
I bought these cars for a father son event I planned and they worked great. Both dads and sons had fun coloring them with sharpies and then racing them on a hot wheels track.

Good for the price, but a little small
These cars are a great idea, but the area for coloring and designing is much smaller than I had anticipated. On some of the models, there is little space to decorate.
