Amazon.com Review:
Ever wonder just how fast you get your favorite Hot Wheels car to go? Or how speedy you are on your own bike? You don’t need to be pulled over by a cop to find out. The Hot Wheels Radar Gun does the job for you, using all sorts of state-of-the-art technology. Just set the scale to 1/64th or real speed, and MPH or KPH, aim the gun at objects coming toward you or moving away, squeeze the trigger, and check out the digital readout. Simple as that! Now you can set new speed goals, and actually find out if you’ve attained them. The 1/64th scale speed reflects the fact that Hot Wheels cars are 1/64th the size of a real car. So if a Hot Wheels car goes 10 MPH, the calculation is 10 MPH X 64 = 640 MPH! Now we begin to understand why those wheels are so hot! Requires four "AAA" batteries (not included).--Emilie Coulter



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not good for policing
40 feet is a little close to get an accurate reading on a car. Could get run over by fast drivers. Good for play and sports activities.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Radar gun measures up!
I bought this after watching a young man use it in his neighborhood. Living in a "planned" community in Washington state, we have the problem of speeders and the paid security guards really can do nothing. People who are stopped simply complain to the managers, or just use their really foul mouths, and ignore the tickets. Since I have been using this, in full view of any approaching vehicles, people SLOW DOWN, at least until they are out of my view. It's an inexpensive and useful tool to slow ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Real Radar
I bought this item to measure the speed of nitro cars. It works well but is not very high powered so you must be close when measuring. This can lead to some excitement reading speed then dodging a 10 lb car travelling at 40 plus MPH.

It is well constructed very unusual and reasonably priced for a very sophisticated toy. I don't know how long the novelty will last for kids but for me it has been useful.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A little harder than it looks
This is a cool toy, but it is harder to use than it looks. You have to aim it just right to get a good reading, so little ones can get frustrated. My son is only 6, so maybe this toy would be perfect for a kid a bit older.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good cheap radar gun!
I bought this for my 4 year old and he had fun with it for the first two or three days.

In the end, I use it to gauge how fast things are going and we talk about relative velocity and going fast and the dangers of such.

I also use it to assist in slowing traffic down on our residential street. As soon as drivers see this thing, they think its local police enforcing traffic and they do slow down. Using Pavlov's method, over time, you can condition regular violators to move ... Read More
