The Hot Wheel Wall Track is a wonderful toy. My son is 15 and I thought it was so cool, I bought him one for Christmas. My son played with Hot Wheels for many years when he was a young child - I would have loved to have had wall tracks then! He was excited about his new "toy" and with it mounted on the wall in his room, it doesn't take up any floor space. Even though he is a teenager, he was excited to have this on his wall for old times sake. The only problem I found with the track was with the directions. You need a larger area than indicated on the directions. The actual track is larger than the poster it mounts on - so allow added space if you are mounting it close to a corner. Mattel was wonderful to ship from - was here in a couple of days!
My son (6) and daughter (8) love playing with the wall tracks. They set up baskets or towers below the track so the falling car will be caught or have a collision - either way it makes for fun and creative play.
