Rokenbok ROK'n Roadways

Bought this for my 9 year old nephew for Christmas and he just loves it! Great gift and priced right.

Amazon canceled two orders from this seller (Hobby Warehouse) for toys ten days after they were placed and paid for and 8 days before Christmas. I was notified by Amazon one day before cancellation that they had not received notification of shipment from the seller. I emailed seller at that point but never heard back. The next day Amazon notified me that the order "had been canceled" and my card will not be charged without saying who canceled the order. Amazon is "sorry for any inconvenience" but this product from same seller is still listed on their site!

This is an excellent addition to any Rokenbok set or vehicle! The bridge is fun as designed, but my kids quickly came up with lots of interesting variations by combining the parts with parts from other sets. The first thing they built was a 3-level parking garage (I had to help with that one!). Then we devised a "delivery ramp" to make cleaning up fun: Multiple vehicles carry unused parts up a long ramp and dump them into a box for storage. We have mostly older R/C vehicles and they all fit perfectly (of course).Lots of possibilities with this set! In fact, the collection of pieces in the Rok'n Roadways set is so useful, we often wish we had another set.

We have one set of these roadways and now we have more coming. You can build various levels of roads w/ less pieces than the older road versions. They are very sturdy and all the Rokcnbok vehicles can drive over them. My son particularly likes driving down the "slide."I'm sorry the previous buyer had a bad experience. I've never had anything but wonderful help from the Rokenbok staff. My son has needed a few minor parts to fix things or extend things before and they have sent them to us at no extra charge. The remote control vehicles are very sturdy and even handle going down the road "slide" when the slide is elevated higher than it should. (This results in the vehicle dumping down the last several inches in mid air; the vehicle lands and keeps on going)!The only thing I'm not happy about is that the company has created a new and better remote system. The old vehicles are not compatible with the the new remotes. We are pretty annoyed by this but maybe it's just not possible and the new system is supposed to be really superior. I guess that just means we wait for stuff to be on sale and maybe eventually we'll get some of the new stuff. The toys will all work together, just the new vehicles will have to be used w/ the new remote and older vehicles will have to be used w/ the older remote.The bottom line is that my son LOVES this toy. He's been using Rokenbok for 2 years and now at 5, he's starting to figure out the building aspects of the toy even more. Currently, while I'm typing, he's trying to figure out how to build a tower even higher to create a tall chute series for his balls to roll down. It's so educational and fun for the whole family!
