Product Description
How many cars will you need to take out this savage dragon? Speed through three inverted jumps, four crash zones and four motorized boosters.

Colors and decorations may vary.
Amazon.com Product Description
Drive with caution -- fire breathing dragons ahead! While that might not be a sign you actually see on the roadside, this playset provides young boys to use a little more imagination. A launcher sends the included Hot Wheels vehicle through three inverted jumps and four crash zones. The idea is to avoid the massive teeth and fiery breath of the mighty beast at one end of the track. Timing roadway just right, including using the four motorized boosters and heading through the super loop, allows you to slay the scaled beast and claim success.  | | Three inverted jumps, four crash zones, and four motorized boosters help you to slay the dragon. |
But should you have the slightest miscalculation, the motorized dragon will "fry" you and you'll have to start all over again. How many tries -- and Hot Wheels cars -- do you think you'll need to be victorious? This set includes one Hot Wheels car, but be warned that not all other Hot Wheels vehicles are compatible with this track. Four D batteries are required, but not included.

 Awfully Expensive for a disposable toy... January 15, 2008

Christmas day is a terrible time to be disappointed with the ONE toy you wanted so bad that it's all you asked Santa for...
My six-year old lives & breathes dragons & race cars. So despite the price & negative experiences with other Hot Wheels track sets, we caved to elf-pressure & got it. It falls apart when bumped. The stick that makes the dragon work is too short & falls out. It took forever to put together (which is what you expect on Christmas day, but geez louise!). The cars almost never make a full circuit...they fall out of the track, get jammed in the accelerators, or run into one of the joints where the track doesn't exactly fit together right.
And a word to mom's with long hair: DON'T BEND OVER THE TRACK--IT'S MEAN & PULLS HAIR! It wasn't a terrible yank, but I had to turn it off to extricate myself. If you have a little girl w/long hair who likes race cars (hey, it could happen...), it could scare her pretty bad even if it doesn't hurt that much.
All in all, a HUGE disappointment. Sure think a company this old could figure out how to make race tracks that don't fall apart...

This toy is fun and cool but it is very loud. My son has auditory sensory issues and this wasn't a good choice for him. He loves it, but won't turn it on.
 My son and his Uncles love this track! January 12, 2008

From the moment my 5 1/2 year old and his two Uncles saw this, they loved it. Santa brought the best gift. They spent probably close to an hour playing with this dragon track as soon as my son opened it and I can't tell you how many pictures they thought they needed of it. It's a great track. Went together easy and hours of fun for the WHOLE family!
A bit of a bore... January 7, 2008

This toy is all flash and no substance. It works. The cars shoot around the track a few times befire they finally wipe out. But the boosters don't seem to have anough torque to recover from one car to the next so if you try to run more than one car at a time, it's likely the second car through the booster will not make it around the loop.
But all that aside, the toy is a bore. My kids (ages 3 and 5) were on FIRE to get this toy up and running and were so excited once it was assembled to play that they could hardly contain themselves. About 15 minutes after they started playing, they lost interest and went back to manually sending their hotwheel cars down the simple track going down the stairs to the basement. The toy just has no substance. You put a car in, it shoots around for a while, then it eventually flips over or something and stops. The end. It was more fun to build having my kids searching for and handing me the right lettered track piece than it was to play with. But I must admit, they were certainly sold on it's packaging hype and flashy layout.
Final word: Fun to watch for a few minutes, but not worth the $40. There are much more engaging ways to entertain a child for that much money.
Noisy... but will a 4 years old care about ?? January 4, 2008

Of course my 4 years old kid does not care a dime about this noisy toy, bout if he keeps playing over my bed while i try to read... well i may become crazy or trash the Dragon fire track set.
In the other hand, my boy's hand, this is a very nice toy, and so far has provided nice hours of play and joy...
Overlook my old man opinion and think about your kids opinion....they will love it
