Having bought this for my son for Christmas (thankfully using doubled up Tesco clubcard vouchers) I can't help mentioning that I feel a more realistic price for this would be £10 - £15. It really is a bit duff, my son hardly plays with it. Sorry for the negativity, but it pains me to see Mums spending their hard earned often dwindling cash on something just because it's been over hyped/advertised.0

I agree! What an over-hyped load of rubbish. The advert before Christmas made it look amazing and my 3 1/2 year old went on and on about it. Since he had it he's played with it about twice!
However we do buy these things for our children if they want them so £40 is a good price.I have the simplest tastes. I am always satisfied with the best.

My four year old loves his and does play with his most days however I bought his second hand for £23 from another child who equally didn't touch it although I do agree it isn't worth £40 either0
