4 out of 5 stars My son loves Automoblox (I do too)   October 28, 2009

My son already has a bunch of normal-sized Automoblox cars. He plays with them every day even though he is only 20-months old and they are recommended for 3+ year olds. I find Automoblox to be high quality toys.

I purchased four MINI Automoblox cars (red coupe, blue sedan, green pickup, and green SUV) so we can take them for trips for my boy to play. My son loves MINIs too. If he plays with MINIs inside the car, it is challenging to find small wheels after he takes them off and drops them on the floor.

There are two major differences (besides the size) in MINIs compared to the full-size Automoblox that I want to mention:

1. MINIs do not come with driver and passengers
2. All four MINIs use the same type of connectors for the wooden pieces (full-size Automoblox have vehicle specific connectors that can be interchanged and add another level to the puzzle)

It seems that the quality of the MINIs is just slightly below the quality of full-sized Automoblox cars. There are some artifacts from the manufacturing process on wooden bodies of the MINIs. Nevertheless, Automoblox are great fun toys.



5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Little Puzzle/Cars   September 5, 2009

We love these little mini cars. They are small enough to fit in my 3-year old's travel backpack for the plane, they are light, they are fun. They are cheaper than the bigger ones, and the big ones aren't so good for travel. Not only did my puzzle-loving son have fun putting them together and taking them apart in various combinations, so did his much older cousins - both boys and girls. They also have excellent wheels and roll really fast on smooth surfaces. The only problem is that the little wheels come off pretty easily and we had some close calls on airplanes a couple of times.


5 out of 5 stars good wooden cars   August 30, 2009

these cars are so much fun that they can be seperated into pieces and put back together. they are well made and run smoothly. and the good thing I found is that each car comes with different wheels so you can actually look at the picture and try to put them back as the way it was, or NOT! it's good to test the kids' ability to see if they can tell the differences between each cars. it's like doing puzzling and lego and racing cars all at the same time. though they are small but they seem pretty durable (we only got it for about a month so far), and less pricy than the regular size ones.


5 out of 5 stars Great and there is so much to do with it   July 1, 2009

My daughter got it for her 4th birthday. She LOVES it! She can change tires, she can make combinations from the three cars. She just loves them. So much that she now has different ones on her wishlist.

I have since been giving them to many children and they too have loved it.

They are a durable wood, which isn't easy to break. The ties come off easily and are easy to lose, but you get spare ones.



5 out of 5 stars Neo-Classic toys for the little car builder in all of us   June 10, 2009

I have waned to buy these for a long time, but I fought the urge until my son was old enough. He absolutely loves these. They may not have electronic noises, flashing lights or even laser, but what they do have is good old imaginative play mechanics.

They are well made and should last for as long as he wants to play with them. I am considering getting another set so that he can create more of his own car-creations.
