This is basically an 'okay' toy. It's not terrible, but it's not fantastic either. I was a bit generous referring to a 'walking' action above. It's more of an 'amble' or 'hobble'. I think the Powers That Be would have been better either including a proper mechanism for movement, or scrapping it altogether and making it a fully soft toy instead of a soft toy with heavy, hard lumpy bits (it would also reduce the price). The shuffling along action isn't going to impress anyone.

And the noise! Sorry, I mean NOISE! I know it's at this volume so that when you press the 'try me' button in a shop, everyone will turn round and come have a nosey at what it is you're playing with, but at home this is extremely annoying. I'm not exaggerating that small children will be scared by this car yelling at them.
But it is still Lightning McQueen and if your children love the films then they're certainly not going to hate this.
