We have yet another lovely product test for you - we've been asked by Mattel, the makers of Hot Wheels, to find 20 Mumsnetters to give their new concept a spin.

For more information please click here

We're looking for testers with at least one child aged 4+ who is interested in Hot Wheels. All testers need to be in the UK.

If you're selected to be a tester, you'll be sent the Hot Wheels Wall Tracks starter set - worth £30. All we ask is that your child tries it and you add both your own and your childs feedback to a thread on Mumsnet. We'd also like you to send in a photo of the track once assembled and we'll use these photos on the MN-Hot Wheels page linked to above.

If you are selected, then the Wall Tracks sets will be sent out within the next 2 weeks and we'd like you to add feedback at least twice.

Everyone who is part of the product test and who adds at least 2 lots of feedback and who emails in a photo will be entered into a prize draw to win a £150 Amazon voucher.

If you'd like to sign up please add your details here

Please note, to use this toy, you will need to have some area of 'free' wall, where the wall is smooth (no artex type effect) and no wallpaper

Best of luck
MNHQ

Never buying any Hotwheels ever again. It looks cool, but it takes forever to put together and then it never works properly and kids just end up getting fed up very quickly.

done this. my boys would be so excited. they 're so much into building marble runs and driving cars/trains on their tracks. this seems like such a cool combination!

LittleMissWoodscommaElle · 10/10/2011 22:48

Done. Ds has seen hot wheels advertised on the tv recently and has asked for some

AnnMumsnet · 10/10/2011 22:52

how will they choose, it is just a pull names out of a hat type thing? and how are we notified? via email or the pm facility on mn?

Shakey1500 · 11/10/2011 09:51

Ooh yes, how will we find out?

You know, just so I can make sure I'm in for the courier ;) ;) Grin

solidgoldbrass · 11/10/2011 09:53

Done. Mind you as it doesn't involve trains DS may forgive me if I don't get this one.

EightToSixer · 13/10/2011 13:27

Yaaaay. I'm DCs are testers! I we never win anything! So very excited :). Thank you MNHQ and Mattel

ClaimedByMe · 13/10/2011 13:33

Im in, i have one happy ds, thank you :)

LittleMissWoodscommaElle · 13/10/2011 13:40

Not heard anything. In the 8 years I have been an active member I have never been selected for anything :(

4madboys · 13/10/2011 13:40

nope i havent heard anything either :(

AnyoneButLulu · 13/10/2011 13:42

Oooh, now desperate to run home and check my email to see whether we're in!

NinjaChipmunk · 13/10/2011 13:42

Nyx · 13/10/2011 13:57

I'm in Grin. It almost makes up for my disappointment at not getting the Wii. DS1 is currently nonplussed. How very rude.

IwishIwasmoreorganised · 13/10/2011 21:19

We're not in, but I'll be expecting some very thorough reviews from all who have been selected so that I can figure out if this would make a good Christmas present or not Grin

LilRedWG · 14/10/2011 13:16

We weren't picked, but DD would love this so I await your feedback. :)

smokinaces · 15/10/2011 11:37

We werent picked either, but I am eagerly awaiting your feedback as it would be fab to get this for the wall for the DS's soon to be playroom and its not too expensive for my budget!

PippiLongBottom · 17/10/2011 13:56

The hotwheels has arrived Grin. Ds1 is off sick from school today but I have managed to get him to wait until Daddy gets in because he will be far better at putting it up than Mummy Wink

SparklyGothKat · 17/10/2011 15:57

Anyone else get theirs today? Ds2 is currently playing with it. Easy to set up took about 10 mins.

ClaimedByMe · 17/10/2011 16:13

Ours came today but ds is in London until late tomorrow!
