Tomica Hypercity Rescue Storm Runner Jet Review & Giveaway - Ends 10/15

The Company
Tomy has been engaging, educating and exciting children for over eighty years. Tomy’s Plarail product line of train sets have enjoyed unrivaled success since its introduction in 1959. Similarly, the TOMICA line of mini-cars and towns have experienced tremendous success since its more recent introduction in 1970. Today, over 75% of Japanese boys under six years of age own TOMICA products, and over 90% of Japanese children and parents recognize the Plarail brand. Parents value these brands for their quality, safety and imagination. Now Tomy seeks to extend these values globally by sharing them with you in the United States by bringing both Plarail and Tomica under the sole umbrella of the TOMICA brand.

Now this popular Tomica line arrives to the U.S. with action packed adventures for all!



The Review
The newest vehicle- Tomica Hypercity Rescue Storm Runner Jet has been engaged in a rescue mission! This rescue jet transforms into three different vehicles – a jet, a submarine and a racecar.

The Storm Runner transports the hero engine and has mobile action bases connected to the wings of the jet to launch cars! The set includes a jet, a non-motorized hero engine, a TomiHero figure and two missiles.



The Storm Runner is a 3-in-1 vehicle ready for any high-risk rescue! In jet mode, there are two mobile action bases under each wing that can be used to launch vehicles.

The Tomica man also fits perfectly into the train and the cockpit of the jet. Each wing holds an emergency vehicle and when you push the button to release the doors, the cars come rolling out (vehicles sold separately).



Assembly is a little difficult but with some practice can be done quickly. It states toy is for 4 but I think four - five year olds will need help attaching the different components.

Kids will love playing with the Tomica Hypercity Rescue Storm Runner Jet and transforming it into the different vehicles ( car, airplane and submarine).



My 9 year old granddaughter and 11 year old nephew enjoyed taking it apart and putting it back together and then immediately brought it in for a crash landing and rescue mission!

Having multiple toys in one is a sure way to keep kids occupied and interested!! This toy will provide hours of interactive fun!

For ages: 4 and up. MSRP: $29.99

Buy online on the TOMY site or at local retailers near you.
