• Finish: multicolour components
• Age range: suitable for ages 3–99

How to use

Unpack the set and identify the vehicle and track pieces. Assemble the plastic track sections on a stable, flat surface following the included layout guidance or create your own configuration. Place the die-cast vehicle on the track and use gentle pushes or gravity from an elevated section to move the car along the track. Supervise children under recommended ages and ensure small parts are kept away from very young children who may be prone to put objects in their mouths.

Usage recommendations

Use on a level tabletop or floor area clear of fragile items. Regularly check connections between track pieces for secure fit and avoid exposing metal parts to moisture to limit corrosion. For collectors, store vehicles and track components in a dry environment and handle die-cast pieces by non-painted areas when possible to preserve finish.
