Hot Wheels JPL Sojourner Mars Rover Action Pack

This is a very high detail reproduction of the Soujourner rover, the Pathfinder base and the landing capsule. The quality and detail is much better than the Hot Wheels Curiosity capsule, with the correct colors, details and moving parts required for fun play. The rover also comes with a deployable reproduction of the Pathfinder base, complete with the deployable panels and a tiny rover in one of its flaps ready for deployment, and a reproduction of the interplanetary capsule, with heat shield and all, which inside contains another copy of the pathfinder lander (complete with undeployed bouncing balloons) with articulated flaps, and inside it has another tiny rover (molded in one of the flaps) to display how it traveled all the way to Mars! So for the space enthusiast this is an excellent kit, with high educational value and also lots of playability. I just whish they could make a reproduction of the curiosity with its landing system on a similar level of detail, I would pay a good sum for that.

Made much better than the more recently released Hot Wheels Curiosity Rover. Lots of details. The wheel design features articulated axles. the heat shield comes of the capsule, and the lander folds open. Lots of good play possibilities.

I got this set for a project i was working on for school. This was alot more detailed and accurate than i expected. Good model

Saw a special on the Mars Rover, got inspired and got this for my desk at work. Looks Great!

So awesome! The little heat shield comes off and a little tiny pyramid comes out (and unfolds!). And then you can unfold the bigger one too, and drive the little rover around. I admit I was playing with this at my desk instead of working the other day...
