Anyone know if you have to assemble this Hot Wheels Garage?

[LePetitMaman]

Ordering littlest DS the HW City Mega Garage. The one with the red dragon perched on top.

It comes in an enormous waist height box the size I would expect the fully assembled garage to be.

Is it ready assembled? Or is it in 100 pieces and needs significant assembly? I'd like it to be virtually ready to play with on Christmas morning. Anyone who owns one able to shed some light?

Thank you 🙏

We don't have that one but we have had to assemble every hot wheels monstrosity we have ever had.

Yes you will have to assemble and put stickers on and I guarantee the cars never stay on the damn tracks!

We got DD a hot wheels garage one year (not this specific one) and assembled it on Xmas eve after she’d gone to bed. We said Santa and the elves had done it 😁

I don't have that one, but I've never known one to come ready assembled.

I've also never known one to be really well played with either. Massive, plastic nightmare that gets a few mins of play every now and again ime! Take it back and save yourself!

Smyths webpage says it needs assembling. You can scroll down the page and it gives you the option to download the instructions. Might give you an idea of how long it might take you (if you have somewhere you can assemble and keep off limits I would recommend avoid leaving it to Christmas Eve. If anything is missing you can't rectify it in time)

Yes you need to assemble

Yes and it's a fucking nightmare op! I say do it Christmas Eve, assembling that Christmas morning was not fun!

We have it yes you do.

Thanks everyone, as I suspected this will be a job for the elves when small people have gone to bed Christmas Eve....
