I'm dissapointed in this product and have to say in Mattel. Do they test these products? My 5 year old son saw the product on TV and wanted it (oh, the power of advertising!), we bought it, and regret it. The set does not come with a car first of all and many of my son's matchbox cars do not fit the launcher. The launcher doesn't even launch. It just drops the darn car! The sound is annoying so don't bother buying batteries either.
