Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (This track set is awesome!!) 『This track set is awesome!! My Kids 4 and 7 are having a blast! They love building different track layouts and watching the super fast cars fly around. The track is easy to snap together and the loop is definitely cool... We have a lot of the other Shake n Go's but these are the fastest! I had a few minor charging issues with the cars when we first got them, but I found out if you just make sure the cars "Snap" into the charger and the light indicator is ON... they charge and run just fine! I do wish Fisher Price sold some additional cars and track pieces, maybe even an additional charger (I agree with the other reviewer...some Pixar Cars would be a great addition)...We absolutely love this product! 』
(Would be great if the cars worked) 『Got this for my 3 year old son's bday and he loved it. I don't think it takes that long to charge the cars with the rechargeable battery so that actually was a positive to the new cars. And the new cars go really fast and the track is really nice. However, a week later the red car wouldn't charge. It would go but very slow no matter how long I charged it. Called fisher-price and they sent me a new one. The day after we got the new red car the same thing happened to the blue one. Called fisher-price again and they sent me a new blue car. I asked if this was a problem with other people and they said no but I see on here that it is. If it happens again I plan on calling them back and asking for a refund of the $65 I paid for this. Not to mention that none of my son's other original shake cars even fit on this track so I had to keep the old track and the whole point was to replace it! :)』
(Great toy for a five year old.) 『I bought this for my sons fifth birthday and it was great. He is able to put it together himself. One of the cars broke the first day but they are cheap to replace.』
(Best Shake n Go Raceway yet) 『This playset is the best version of the Shake n Go's to date. We've had the other two versions over the past several years and while they were very popular, they had their limitations. The best things about this new xtreme playset are: 1) it reconfigurable which gives it a lot more versatility 2) the cars are very fast (and have been reliable so far unlike the other reviewer's comments) 3) the loop really works and is a cool feature 4) its more durable than the other tracks--stays together and can be pulled apart and reconfigured relatively easily by the kids. If there is a downside, it is that our other Shake n go's aren't compatible with this track. Would be great to have some more car choices at this smaller scale (McQueen and the King would be awesome!).』
(Could Have Been Awesome) 『Both of my younger boys wanted this toy very much (great marketing Fisher Price). They were excited when they received it as a birthday present and they were not disappointed when we got it put together and started playing with it. The cars move really fast and with the loop, ramps and barrels the whole family was laughing and enjoying the toy in just a few minutes. The problem seems to be with the cars. The red car charged&ran fine, but after only 1 charge, the blue car wouldn't charge enough to even make the loop. So, we took it back to where we purchased it (nationwide toy retailer selling it for $15 less than Amazon) as defective and got another set. (Just the car would have been ok with me--but their choice.) Anyway, got the second one home and same situation. Both cars worked great out of the box, but after 1 or 2 charges, the blue car wouldn't get up to speed (red car still fine). So, its going back again--my boys are very disappointed as they loved this toy. If Fisher Price had spent some of their marketing $ on quality control for their Chinese manufacturer, maybe they would have had a toy that was good for more than just the 1 day when you open it!』 『The Shake 'N Go Extreme Speedway is an interactive playset that allows two cars to race each other on a reconfigurable track and preform stunts. The playset includes the track, two cars, two ramps, a charger, multiple barrels, billboards, and flags. Both cars include a rechargable battery. The track can easily be reconfigured into at least 4 different tracks and includes a loop for stunts.』

(lovingranny60) 『Great-grandson needed something in which to store his Thomas engines and this works perfectly. He is very happy.』
(piece of junk) 『I gave this to my son for his birthday. The good news is that he loved it. The bad news is that it broke in less than an hour and he's very upset. He doesn't tend to break toys, ever, and he wasn't playing rough with it - just opening and closing. Buy something else; this is a piece of junk.』
(A good night's rest for little choo choos) 『I read a lot of the reviews for this item and either they have changed what it is made out of or other children are monsters! I have had no problems with this case. My son loves to line his trains up inside and it makes putting them up and getting them out much easier. My only complaint is that it is not big enough to hold them all! =)』
(EXTREMELY BENDABLE) 『My son has a huge collection of Thomas Trains;hence, we were eager to purchase a carrier. Be prepared to continually bend the carrier back into shape just inorder to close the lid. The separations bend out of shape easily as well. Since you can bend it back, and it isn't to costly I give it three stars. Hope this was helpful.』 『Thomas is a beloved favorite for all kids. His new look and adventures have boosted him to the top. Be sure to look for all of Schylling's Thomas The Tank Engine Products.
Schylling's tin Thomas Carrying Case is beautifully decorated inside and out. With internal shelves, it will carry all your favorite wooden trains. It's a great case and it's made to fit all major brands. Measures 10" x 13" x 2".』
『Thomas fans will have fun organizing their trains with this carrying case made of sturdy tin by Schylling. The 13.25-by-10-by-1.75-inch blue case has a colorful picture of Thomas the Tank Engine on the front with additional images of his train friends Percy, James, and Henry on the inside. There is plenty of storage space inside for the whole gang and the tracks they run on. This case has four nonadjustable slots to hold train cars, a shiny silver latch for secure closure, and a plastic red handle for easy transport. This carry bag is perfect for the conductor on the go.--N. Mered』

(Nice Set. Some 'Compatibility' Issues with Other sets) 『Nice set to have. Definitely worth the price. Only issue I have is that I have several sets of original GeoTrax, yet it seems not all sets match perfectly with each other - again all (supposedly) original sets and parts. Overall, worth getting』
(GRANDSON LOVES IT) 『I BOUGHT THIS FOR CHRISTMAS FOR MY 3 YEAR OLD GRANDSON...THIS IS THE EXTRA PIECES. THEY GO GREAT WITH THE ORIGINAL. VERY EASY FOR HIM TO ASSEMBLE AND DISASSEMBLE TO MAKE NEW TRACKS』
(Great replacement and extra pieces) 『Purchased to both replace and enhance our set - just what we were looking for.
』
(Additional Tracks Good) 『Good product, but seem to have problems with connecting turn track to regular track. For some reason, it doesn't fit perfectly flush and the train sometimes derails. With a little adjusting, it seems to work OK. Otherwise, it's a great addition to the GeoTrax system!』

Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Not as pictured) 『This was a Christmas present for my son and we didn't notice until it was already opened that it was not what I had ordered. The set did come with Annie and Clarabel but they were die cast metal instead of the wood. At first I thought it wouldn't be a problem but when we returned home from our Christmas vacation my son found that the wheels were not spaced wide enough apart and were not big enough to work on the grooves of his wooden tracks. Plus, the magnets on these cars are not oriented properly to attach correctly to his wooden Thomas.
Unfortunately the time has passed for me to return these. But if you do order them and want the cars to fit with your wooden railway I would confirm with the seller beforehand so you are not disappointed.』
(What's Thomas without them?) 『If you have a Thomas set and a kid, it won't be long until you buy Annie and Clarabel, what would Thomas be without his coaches? They both arrived safely in a couple short days, ironic that they came by air. Same high quality and durability that we've come to expect from Thomas and his friends...at one of the cheaper prices around. Buy a set to go with them so you save the shipping.』
(Important items for Thomas and Friends) 『In the videos Thomas was given Annie and Clarabel as a reward, along with his own branch line. So Thomas pulls these two carriages most of the time. The child who receives these will play with them a lot. If the child watches the videos, I recommend Thomas, Annie and Clarabel and Sir Topham Hatt in the blue car as basics.』
(Annie and Clarabel + Imagination = Fun) 『Our little Thomas fanatic has what seems like miles of track and tons of engines and special cars for his set. Somehow, he lacked the passenger cars, Annie and Clarabel, and the toy stores we visited didn't carry them in the magnetized version. We found them on Amazon, ordered them, and he's delighted with them. Imagination is very educational and there are all sorts of things that happen with and to these cars as they interact with the rest of his set and work to resolve problems that pop up. Toys that "do things" are fun for awhile but those with intriguing features that you can have do whatever your mind can come up with are wonderful. These cars are well made and sturdy enough to cope with the roughest work.』
(Thomas&Friends Annie&Clarabel) 『These are additions to my Grandson's vast Thomas collection. These toys are very durable and provide endless amounts of entertainment for both him and his imagination. I'm sure these will be hand-me-downs.』 『Annie and Clarabel are Thomas' two faithful coaches. They were given to Thomas as a reward for proving himself to be a Really Useful Engine. Annie carries passengers and is always pulled by Thomas facing him. Clarabel carries both passengers and luggage, and always travels behind Annie.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Great item) 『Our son was so excited to see James when he came out of the box. He plays with him every day. Thanks for the great service, shipping and price.』
(James and his tender at a good price.) 『This was shipped in a timely manner and got exactly what I expected. If you order at least 3 engines, it's worth paying the shipping and getting the discount vs. buying it at a local retail store.』
(Neither my Grandson nor I have found a Thomas&Friend Wooden Train we don't like!) 『Thomas&Friends Wooden Railway Trains offer endless playtime for our Grandson. Mom, Dad, and both sets of Grandparents enjoy watching, playing, and helping him layout new track designs.』
(An excellent toy) 『This has been a great addition to my daughter's Thomas collection. She enjoys the bright red paint, and easily recognizes James while watching the Thomas DVD's.
Though it may seem odd to consider this an "educational" toy, I've used it when teaching my daughter her colors, numbers, as well as coordination.
Learning Curve has recalled all defective versions of this train, and so you should not be concerned with purchasing this or any other red (or yellow) train.
---Update--- My daughter has now had this for over a year now, and James is still one of her favorites. The quality of the train is as good as the day we bought it; Learning Curve's promise of quality has proven itself many times over.

(This toy will give your child brain damage) 『Thomas the Tank Engine toys, specifically the red James with coal car # 5, as this product depicts, have been recalled due to excessive levels of lead in the red paint. I would throw away this product, or any other red painted Thomas the Train product, until it is clear that the products in the pipeline are demonstrably lead free.』

(Very easy to use) 『We purchased this for our 2 year old for his birthday. We was a little worried because it says ages 3 and up but he has no problem working it to make it go they just have to press a button that is all and if the button is not pressed it goes in circles he loves that it growls and the tail moves very good toy and he enjoys it a lot.』
(Kids love it!) 『We bought this as a b-day gift for our 4-year-old nephew. He loved it, as did my 2-year-old son, who kept telling me he needed to have it! My 8-year-old neice was quite entertained, as well! We will be buying a bee and a ladybug for our son and daughter for their b-days in a few months. Great toys for the price!』
(Loud, obnoxious and no-fun!) 『I bought this for my 3-year old's birthday, and what a disappointment! I thought that the simplicity of the toy would make it more fun for my son to play with it, but it just makes it very frustrating, even for adults. First of all, there is no standing position for the dinosaur. Once you turn it on, a very LOUD motor turns on and the toy proceeds to turn around and around and around. Without us even touching the remote. The only way to make it stop is to pick up the dinosaur and turn off the power switch! The remote is a joke: there is no way to control the direction the dinosaur goes in! What kind of remote "control" is that? It only has one function - a button you can press or not press. When you press the button, the dinosaur moves forward in whichever direction he is facing. But remember, that he has been spinning in circles since he's been turned on. So it basically ends up being a random direction that he heads off into. Then when you let go of the button, he stops moving forward, but continues his annoying turning in circles. My son had become very frustrated everytime we have tried to play with it, because basically, he can't make it go in the direction he wants. Finally, because the toy is in constant motion from the time you turn it on, it drains batteries faster than it spins! We had to replace batteries after just two times of play and we did not even play for too long. I have not bothered to replace the batteries and now my son just has an expensive foam dinosaur with which to do some imaginative play.』
(Simple fun for the dinosaur lover in your family!) 『I purchased this for my 3 1/2 year old nephew at Christmas. After all the wrapping paper was ripped from the packaging, the fun began. I can say I was kinda surprised with the quality of the item, being a lot more sturdy and well finished than I anticipated.
After we popped in the batteries in the remote and dino itself we were off to the kitchen for a hard floor. After turning the dino on and placing it on the floor, we noticed it spinning in place. After my nephew yelling it was broken I pressed the button on the remote and the dino took off!
Basically the spinning motion is to "aim" the dino, and pressing and holding the button sends him off in that direction. It was actually kinda cool since my nephew caught on really quick and enjoyed the speed and motion.
The toy seems pretty well built, and the soft foam coating is a nice feature for both kids, and your furniture! I think the only thing I would add to this toy is dino sounds, but that's a minor thing and isn't a deal breaker for this type of toy.』 『King of the Jurassic forest! The Dinos T-Rex has textured green skin and big jaw-clomping teeth. Turn your Dino on and he spins. Press and hold the exclusive one button "Trilobite" remote and it lights up. Your Dino moves forward and has unique secondary actions; mouth chomps, tail wags and legs go back and forth. Release the button and he spins again.』
