Magic Tracks is a set of colorful, flexible, and glow-in-the-dark race tracks that can be easily assembled into different shapes and patterns. The track features serpentine technology, allowing children to be creative with their track design, even moving it. Magic Tracks is a glow-in-the-dark track that can bend, flex, and glow. To assemble the track, take any two pieces of track and line up the top and bottom tabs. Push together until a “click” is heard, then continue until you have a track as long as you like. Shape the track in any way you want by turning pieces in different directions. Finally, finish the track by connecting the beginning piece with the end piece.
To turn on the Magic Tracks car, find the raised button on the top of the car and press it once to start the car. To turn it off, press the button. The tracks fit together by snapping in the middle, allowing them to pivot, making it easy for kids to bend roads into circles or wind them.

I got one of these from my mom NOT FOR ME!! (Although I do enjoy messing with it) but for my daughter, she’s only 15 mos but she loves turning the cars on and perusal it go. It looks really neat at night, I’m not sure why it didn’t look bright to him, but I think it’s neat. I have no complaints about this. I got a big set with maybe 20+ feet, 4 cars, 2 bridges, and lots of little traffic cones, street signs, stickers, stuff like that. So I think it’s awesome if you splurge for the bigger one but all in all, really cool and kids will LOVE IT! Ask me any questions!
I bought the 25 or 30ft one, that came with 2 cars and a bridge and a lot of sighs to set around the track. Didn’t have any trouble with the cars breaking. Bought it for my 3yr grandson and the cars and track took a beating didn’t break rip or tore in any way shape at all very very Durable!! Would highly recommend to anyone interested in this. Bought it at Walmart for $25. Was and is very happy with purchase. And would buy again. The only thing is if the cars go off track beware they will go underneath your couch kinda a pain to get too considering how I had my couch set up. But that’s the only thing which is not the toys fault just giving a heads up and should block so wouldn’t have to dig out from couch or stove. Best thing to do is block those Areas so you won’t have to fish them out.
My kid had this toy and he liked it, but only rarely played with it. He tended to break the track into small pieces and then they’d get scattered all throughout his toy bins, so he wasn’t usually willing to go to the trouble of finding enough track pieces to play with it. I also found the noise of it really annoying. I was under the impression the track was supposed to glow, but it didn’t glow at all. My kid ended up playing with the battery powered car on its own more than anything.
Put tracks outside in sun for five hours and did not make them glow. Also when it says how many pcs of track you get they fail to tell you to count each pc of track separately. The track comes in sections but those sections are made up of smaller pcs and that is how they count them. Have multiple cars which are nice but some run slower than others so you cannot put multiple cars on track. They catch up with each other and then push each other around. I do know if you have a problem, call them, talk to service and they will fix the problem. Very good about that.
My fiance bought this toy for our 2 year old son. He enjoyed it… Until the car broke about a month later. He threw it a couple of times lol but the replacement cars are expensive! Also, for those who have kids that will take the tracks completely apart, they hurt like hell when you step on them! Worse than Legos lmao
Okay, I received my order today and it was as specified (much to my surprise, although looking at the packaging did not confer confidence in the length of one track. It did add up to about 11 feet. That would be four packages of five track sections each for 11 feet total. I’m going to rate this one feature of the cars as a design flaw because the track is designed to follow whatever configuration you set for the tracks, uphill, downhill, and curved as you please. However, if you add only a modest hill up or down to the track, especially if combined with a curve (or maybe even no curve at all depending on the track elevation — I simply used a three-inch high box, a shoe, and a small tape measure case laid on its side to create inclines and banked curves with the track), you will find that the cars will leap, fall, or throw themselves from the track because of the torque produced from the cars being “rear- wheel drive.” Imagine if the cars were “front-wheel drive” and “pulled” themselves up the inclines that are available from the track design. I would rather have a car that loses traction on the incline rather than one that flips itself over backwards and off the track on a steep incline or fly off the track if the track suddenly goes downhill. This is caused by the relative speed of the cars and by the torque from the cars being rear-wheel drive and being very short in wheel base. Leaving the track due to poor positioning by the “track configuration expert” (that’s you and me), is the only reason why a car would leave the track.
you might want to check the wheels for hair from doggies. my hair is really long, and I had to mess with getting it out of the wheels. it doesn’t glow in the dark for beans, but it is a pretty fun toy. got two of them for my G kids, and found myself playing with the cars after the kids had gone home. LoL! nice review. my review is just ok. you did good! the tracks actually DO come apart, but they are so tiny that it isn’t worth it. some people said you couldn’t take them apart but were wrong. I think the cars are pretty strong too, and I LOVE the flashing blue streak ours made with all the lights in my hall on. it only glows when you have a light source really close to it. so nada on the glow. super fun to play with. we used the old big leggos and built towers to drive through. plus whatever the kids could find laying around my house. cheers!
I was thinking about getting this set for my toddler but after hearing all the damn noise the car makes Ima rethinking it…..lol. I was also looking into the twister tracks you mentioned and the vertical loop accessory looks pretty cool, until I looked into getting it. Damn thing will cost you what a whole set costs! What a rip-off!
I bought this set but the one I got has two cars and a longer track. The kids played with it for hours and have continued since then! My grandson was able to roll up the track and put it in the green bag that came with th set. The track only glowed when we put direct light in the tracks like a flashlight. For some reason regular house led lights did not make it glow. Overall WE LOVE THIS RACE TRACK SET!
Just got this for my 4 year old for christmas this year and have to say I’m kind of disappointed so far. First of all the car I got in the box didn’t even match what was in the instructions. Instructions say it required 3 AAA batteries, however, the car that came in our box only took one AA battery which is covered up by a snap on cover, not one with a screw like the instructions say. So I was kind of like WTF. Also, since I think our car is only being powered by 1.5V vs. 6V it WOULD have with 3 AAA batteries, the car runs incredibly slow compared to how yours did in this article. I tried even making little tiny hills by just putting my hand under the track and the car wouldn’t even clear it. We did order this from amazon so I’m hoping we didn’t get some fake knockoff but everything else seems legit like the track pieces. As far as the track glowing, I’m going to say they probably more than likely used black lights in the room to make the track pieces appear glowing, which I’m sure not everyone in the world has laying around handy.
I’m adding this as a separate comment so it will be visible to everyone. Magic Tracks customer service quickly reviewed my order and corrected the mistake made by their website shopping cart programming. Customer service actually went further than simply refunding the extra P&H charge, but I won’t say what they did because I don’t want to raise others hopes or expectations. Happy Holidays to all.
El auto funcionó una semana . Ahora va considerablemente lento, aun poniendole pilas nuevas. Y al amigo de mi nieta le pasó lo mismo. Queria mi familia comprar un nuevo set, para ampliar la pista. Mi voto fue que nunca más compraran esa marca de autitos, porque es probable que volviera a pasar lo mismo.
Yes, I was reading that putting it out in the sun would help with the glow “factor” – so I am going to let mine get a couple hours of sun on my deck before I try it out. Because from my viewpoint, the glow is the main attraction and the reason that as a grown-ass woman, I bought this. I LOVE lionel trains and all of that stuff. I’m also going to try to buy some flourescent stickers and/or some glow in the dark paints to slap on my cars. You have never met a bigger kid than myself. And I absolutely love your reviews. You are awesome, very thorough and forthright. Thanks a bunch.
