Jetrax T6

This Jetrax set was one of 5 Bionicle sets my 7 year-old got for Christmas. It was on the top of his list, and for good reason. The vehicle itself is very cool... about a foot long with lots of weapons and moving parts. It is recommended for ages 9-16, and was really a challenge for my experienced 7 year-old builder. Took him about 3 hours with occasional help from Mom & Dad. We loved the new style "shooters" on this vehicle. There are three of them, each holding 4 balls. Firing is both consistent and accurate, which I can't really say about many past Bionicles weapons. They are a little bit tricky to load, but my son got the hang of it after a while. I'd say the only negative about this set is that the figure that comes with it is pretty lame. It is a washed-out, simplified version of Antroz that's not nearly as impressive as the version sold separately. Overall, though, a great set both in terms of building fun and playability. more less

I have almost nothing ill to say about the Jetrax T6. It is fun to build, fun to play with, and fun to look at. Honestly the only drawback is the expensive price--you'll be shelling out a few Jacksons for this one. I can, however, recommend this over purchasing five Phantoka or Mistika (this year's canister-level sets), which would be comparable in price. This is a much more enjoyable product and will provide a much greater amount of lasting fun. more less
