Micro Motorz – On Your Marks, Get set, GO!
When we were recently sent some of the Micro Motorz to play with I knew that Moose would love them! He (like many children) really likes blind bags and adores toy cars. A blind bag with a toy car theming is a surefire hit. The Micro Motorz are a little bit more than that though.
The Micro Motorz packaging is very bright and colourful. It’s quite large for a blind bag toy. Certainly bigger than I had expected it to be.
The first surprise awaiting you once you have opened your blind bag is a cool sticker which alludes to the team you are about to reveal.
Inside the Micro Motorz bag is a plastic pod with 3 chambers.
There are over 20 different Micro Motorz to collect in the first series including six Nitro Chargerz – these racers pack some serious punch with their powerful engines and are perfect for drag races – there are three regular Nitro Chargerz and three rare ones to collect.
Once you have opened all 3 surprise pods you will have revealed a sticker, a display capsule, a Micro Motorz car, a tool to use with your car, a cool tuning accessory such as an engine or a spoiler and a launch pad to turn your display capsule into launch mode!
A really good feature of this toy is that the display capsules fit together ensuring that you have a fun and easy way to keep your Micro Motorz as you build your collection!
How to assemble your launcher
First of all you will need to take the launcher pad and insert it into the display capsule as shown.
Ensure that the launcher pad is inserted the correct way round.
Attach the blue part as shown and tuck the elastic band around it.
Finally, fit the base plate as shown. You may have to squeeze this down again after you perform your launch. Push the launch pad to the rear of the capsule.
The unique steel ball bearing in the base of each Micro Motorz car means that you can drift, spin and CRASH your vehicles when firing them out of the launcher!
What did we think?
For less than £5 per blind bag I think they would make for a great collectible. I could imagine Moose would have lots of fun racing the cars with his friends and he already has his new toys on display in his bedroom!
Micro Motorz are available from supermarkets and toy retailers at £4.99 for children ages 3+.
