Reviews
"made it easy and didn't get the wheels on crooked this year - first time my child did really good at the pinewood derby."
"However the credit card was then covered in graphite...might want to use a grocery store club card or something instead."
"All in all it works ok."
"It lets you drill perfectly straight holes and also makes inserting and removing the axles much easier (no hammer required)."
"After drilling we confirmed that it was still lined up correctly before drilling the other side."
"This worked for the first 2 cars and then the drill it broke."
"Great for precision alignment."
"Great tool made it easy to line up the axles just make sure to have extra bits on hand as the one provided broke (My fault)!"

Reviews
"I engage in competitions where the men are allowed to build the cars (with some help from their sons) for their families and race against other families in our Church. I chose to purchase these tungsten weights this year in conjunction with using lead because the tungsten provides more weight while taking up less space in the car."
"No more need to risk getting burnt melting and casting lead weights on your gas stove."
"Great weight for fine tuning the weight."
"These ended up working great but we found it very tricky making big enough holes in the car without splitting the wood."
"These weights work great for bringing your pinewood derby car up to the maximum weight."
"I've been sourced to construct a demon of a car once before... it was so fast it could have atopped at the bar, took a shot, and strolled to the finish line with time to spare... upping my game this season with some tungsten!"
"Keeps the car looking nice and clean as well since it's easy to hide the weights within the body of the car."
"Handy weights in good combination of fractional ounces allowing for precise adjustment."

Best Hobby Trains & Accessories

Lionel Polar Express Remote Train Set - O-Gauge
Official "All aboard the Polar Express" and other sound clips from the movie.
Reviews
"We'll start at the front of the train: The mighty Berkshire engine is almost exactly the same, with some exceptions: There are no longer separate hand rails adorning the sides of the tank. The third difference, and this is big, is the previous model used a very simple metal bracket to "couple" the tender, which I never liked. This model uses a new over/under coupler (quick connect drawbar) that's heavy plastic with copper diodes inside. The diodes are responsible for sending sound commands from the engine to the tender and also syncing the chuffing noises with the speed of the locomotive. The old engine was hit or miss - most of the time the train had to warm up by going at least half speed around the track for a few minutes before there was any smoke. This is Lionel's "RailSounds" module, as opposed to the less feature rich "TrainSounds" or "SteamSounds". There are silhouettes in the windows that adhere to the book and movie - children lining one car, forgotten toys in one, and the last has one lonely child near the back. I feel like this piece could easily break, so I used a line of super glue to keep the deck permanently attached. I've even seen video of multiple LionChief trains running on the same track with a single power supply. (Tip: If you plan to put this around the Christmas tree, I recommend ordering additional track. You can't simply pick up a replacement and set the frequency to match the engine. The control knob moves to neutral, forward, and reverse and there are three buttons for the bell, whistle, and announcements/chatter. If chuffing is turned on, you'll hear slow chuffs and steam noises and some chatter after a little while in neutral. The lack of transformer makes it ideal for remote control around a Christmas tree. Also in the set you will receive 4 plastic movie figurines (Conductor, Engineer, Fireman, and the main character), smoke fluid, and a commemorative jingle bell as depicted in the movie (I guess it makes a nice ornament). One Final Note: Lionel is releasing a LionChief Plus series in 2014 that will have upgraded features such as a toggle for use with a traditional transformer and automatic decoupling. As of now, they have not announced if they plan to release a Polar Express model with LionChief Plus. But, that requires opening the transformer to full throttle and using the remote to control the movement of the engine. My advice to anyone who wants the option of remote or transformer would be to wait for the LionChief Plus line to be release."
"Judging from the negative feedbacks they probably don’t know this is an issue or they would address it rather than have a bunch of train set returned. Another issue is the track snaps together but will loosen from the weight of the train when used over carpeting. Overall I like the train and would have given it 5 stars if I didn’t have to go through all this aggravation to fix the issues."
"Very well made, a lot of detail and very smooth on the track (we did order extra) the Bluetooth Remote (which my husband, who's old school and still likes using a Transformer thought he was going to hate!)."
"Love this train for our Christmas village display."
"We had to return the locomotive and then a train car as being defective."
"The whole train looks realistic and it is so easy and smooth in its operation. The train whistle is hard to hear as well as the Tom Hanks quotes when the train is moving pretty fast."
"It’s not model railroader grade but for the average guy like me it’s perfect."

Reviews
"My instructions to her were to “Take-off, fly straight out over the field, move it around some, bring it back, land it.” This is just her second time flying the drone."
"Once I removed the beginner mode, I was able to start exploring the capabilities of the drone. The camera is solid and the ability to change the angle in flight was one of the key reasons that I selected this drone. Because the camera is not mounted on a gimble, the video can be a little shaky at times - but that is one of the reasons why this drone is more affordable than some from DJI."
"I’m not a techy guy (at all), but I was able to put it together, connect it to my cel phone electronically, and fly it, all in the same day."
"After a few issues on my first attempt, I was very successful flying my Holy Stone HS-100 drone today. The instruction manual is a little confusing on the exact steps to calibrate the compass and GPS, but now that I was successful, I can replicate the steps."
"These features work great and both drones have turned out to be a great opportunity for my son and I to bond and spend time together."
"Would recommend getting extra batteries right from the start, but the 15 minute battery life provides an enjoyable flight."
"The screws for the fixed rings are tiny and were slightly challenging for me to get started (but hey, my vision is not what it once was)."
"I haven't had a chance to stretch it out yet due to the fact that a lake claimed my previous Drone, so I'm leery about the return home feature."

Reviews
"It is a little difficult to slide the stand together because of a plastic part that sticks out, but it can be done and gets easier, somewhat, each time you do it."
"The newly turned two year has enough stomp power to shoot the rocket off after a couple of tries."
"All you do is attach one of the rockets on the end of a tube, and stomp on the air pillow provided in the toy assembly."
"And, adults have fun watching the children have so much fun & once in awhile jump in to see if they can stomp a rocket too - LOL. The older one's stomped on the rocket while the youngest loved watching the rockets launch into the sky. Overall rating is lots of fun for children (and adults - smile) of all ages, but if smaller children are around adult supervision is needed so they don't get the rocket in their mouths."
"Rockets also seem fairly durable, holding up to the kids jamming them on the air tube, bending them completely in half, and stepping on them."
"This was fun to play with as a family (neices would stomp with help from mom or dad, mom or dad and other neice would "catch")."

"When our oldest grandson was born in 2008, it was the final year of a decade long run of special state quarters, 5 released per year (with an 11th year featuring U.S. We have all but three or four of the quarters he'll need to fill this Collector's Map up; you'll note this is recommended for age 12+, and if you're giving it to someone who's only now going to be beginning a collection, that age might be wise... patience isn't one of the strongest attributes of the grandson we're giving this too (or most five year olds, for that matter!"
"I would recommend this map, but just realize it will take some time to get the circles out of the map."
"This is the best kids gift I've purchased in a long time - love it!"

Reviews
"I own another Smatree case and found it to be very thoughtfully designed with high quality materials so when I saw that they made a case for the New 3DS XL, I didn't hesitate to order it. The case I was using for my New 3DS XL was a little snug with the shell case I used on my device and only had enough room for the New 3DS XL and maybe a cable. The case offers enough room for the New 3DS XL to sit comfortably with Tomee XL Crystal case attached. The fit is a bit tight but it did fit with the Tomee Crystal case and might offer a little more protection in the case."
"The corner pockets to hold the games can be a bit difficult to place and remove the games but the flap is sturdy and soft which will provide protection to the games. He was very excited and immediately put the games in, and the 3DS in the removable pouch then back into the bigger case."
"My son really likes this case because it holds everything for his 3DS XL in one place."
"I have separate cases to hold all of the games, so I rarely use this for games (unless I'm taking a few with me to play), but my power cord/accessories fit it perfect."
"The outer shell would, it's pretty sturdy, but without the inner pocket he ds will just bounce around inside and I'm pretty sure that's not ideal."
"It fits my new Nintendo 3DS XL perfectly and allows me to bring as much as 8 games on the go."

Reviews
"- one big ON button, and auto flow of filament, so you don't have to keep pressing the forward button to squeeze out plastic continuously as you work (slower flowrate, but they don't mind). -The silicon green circular molds provided in this Mega set are really easy to use, have a lot of useful shapes, and the finished products pop right out. -a negative to the melted Eco plastic not sticking on paper, is that it does not stick on paper!-- thus you can't use the paper to "anchor" a melted blob as easily, and the entire piece may lift up with the pen (but not a major problem). -several examples of projects in the book use colors not provided in this Mega set, which my daughter found annoying. The pics below are projects my kids did from the book provided in this Mega set, except for the little green guy with antennae sitting next to the Eiffel Tower, which was previously made with PLA plastic and the Hatchbox pen."

"Easy to put together and to take apart so since it is rather large, it can be semi taken apart and put away."
"product purchased for grandkids they loved it."
"Just got off the phone with Peter, I informed him that my blue car wasn’t working properly and a couple of the tracks were messed up."

Reviews
"or have a life... :). Sure, I chose this drone because of the features and low price to some extent but most of all; the great things said about their support! Be ready on the speed switch in case you need that extra burst of power! I contacted Holy Stone and replacement was handled straight away without leaving me with a feeling that I did anything wrong and they were doing me a favor. They directed me to a video on you tube and after that, I authored a motor replacement guide in PDF format. Recorded inside with normal ceilings and I still managed NOT to hit my wife's good glass decorations or wake the cat. Without that it would be a motor-burnt pile of black plastic and propellers, suitable for making a really weird looking planter with cool lighting..."
"While attempting to fly it out doors on a very calm day my daughter synced the drone to the remote and calibrated the gyro. she depressed the take off button and the drone shot straight into the air at full throttle with no remote control input. This is where customer service stepped in... After a couple of emails and proof of purchase they replaced the drone."
"Only flaw with mine is the RIGHT REAR motor seems to spin up slower than the others on startup which is not a real deal breaker, but I have to be prepared to correct the trajectory on takeoff. This motor may just be a little weaker than the others because the trim characteristics are maxed out to compensate for drift in that direction."
"Never having flown a drone I had questions, and got superlative customer support from Holy Stone. Alas, my skills being limited after a few flights I got flustered and pushed the throttle to a point where I was able to watch my Predator sail away forever. I find it much easier to control than the HS170, is much more stable in flight, it has a decent camera, remote has a more intuitive layout. Inexpensive drones can have issues (as you can see in reviews on any of them) so key is responsive folks on the other end."
