We brought it right back to Toys R US and got our money back. The manager told us everyone that was sold was returned! It was absolutely nothing like the toy pictured on the box.

Rather, it was the largest hunk of junk I've ever seen in my life with toys. It actually came with sheet metal screws to attach parts, was all blow-molded out of greasy black plastic and parts never fit together. The "canopy" was clamshell plastic that literally could not attach anywhere or be held on by anything (I used red rubber bands). Figures rolled around inside because there were no seats!

Can you tell I'm still bitter? That was a lot of allowance saved and my first burn as a young consumer.
