Night Vision CHEAP!4
Let me start off by saying I was pretty skeptical that a Night Vision product this inexpensive would be any good. I was soooo very wrong, these goggles work well and are a blast, Im sure my nephew will get a kick out of them. Easy to use easy to operate and seemingly durable. The only draw back batteries, you have to ensure you use fresh fully charged batteries or they won't work, otherwise great night vision fun.

Awesomely Fun and Cool5
These goggles are awesome!

The body seems durable enough, but wouldn't take a hard beating. The screen is very nice, but doesn't allow a very wide field of view. Actually, it's very narrow. The "glow" from the high-powered LEDs around the camera is very dim, barely noticable.
I did not experience any disorientation from the camera being centered and the viewfinder over my right eye.
It has great range, but makes it hard to navigate.
The goggles are comfortable to wear and virtually seal light in and out.
They are lightweight, lighter than I expected!

The night vision part is great, but the field of view is pretty bad (horrible). If you are looking for a professional system that will allow you to navigate with ease, these are not for you.

All in all, these are a great buy. Check your local Target for a lower price.

Have fun, and "Bring on the Dark!"

(P.S. - I prefer the B+W color setting.)

Good for Rat Hunting4
These "night vision" goggles aren't good for much, you can't walk around with them on (you'll trip or walk into something), they're not too powerful (you can't really see much with them on), BUT THEY'RE GOOD FOR RAT HUNTING. I just came back from the best night of ratting in my life (out of countless hunts). I killed 13 rats (I live on a farm) in under an hour (make sure you have a laser sight). With these goggles, spotting living things is quite easy, because their eyes glow. I wouldn't recommend this for kids, it's the sort of thing they'll use once and than leave in the closet, but if you like kill rats, this is it.

An Antiquated Rocket for Flight Photography3
The Estes Astrocam is a fairly easy rocket to build and fly. It requires some gluing, assembly, and fixing of decals. I suppose the whole process takes 2 hours or so.

The camera is mounted on the nosecone and is a fixed focus lens. It takes 110 film, which in the digital age is a real pain to find and process. This is the major drawback of this rocket - the 100 film.
I have had multiple problems loading the film, getting the film to advance, and problems with the camera itself. I do not recommend this rocket camera any longer.

The 110 film format has a tiny negative, so standard enlargements of your astrophotos are not feasible beyond a 4x5 picture. The pictures (if you get a roll of 110 film to work in the camera) tend to be blurry and are overall disappointing.

Adding photography to rocketry is a fun and worthwhile addition to this interesting hobby, but this rocket IS NOT the place to start!

Jim "Konedog" Koenig

Good time bird if the price is right4
If you have an interest in airborne photography, this is a good place to start. Follow the directions and it's possible that you'll wind up with some recognizable pictures of the field you launch on. Uses 110 film, which can be a little expensive to develop these days, but if you can find the film and the rocket cheap it helps soften the blow.

Customer Reviews

Not worth the price.3
This toy should cost no more than 5 or 6 bucks. Anything under that would make it worth it. The track is a circle and about a foot in length ....and it has two little pull back cars (Lightning and Sally)that hardly make it around before they stop or flip off the track. And a cardboard cut out of something that we also threw out. It also has side rails snapped on that keep popping off. My 3 year old played with it a couple times as a race track but would rather take the track apart and fling balls accross the kitchen floor with the track peices. Bottem line is it would be cute and worth it for 4 or 5 bucks.

Flimsy Flop2
It looks like it will be a great product, but it is flimsy and low-quality. My son played with it once since Christmas 3 weeks ago. The tiny cars are pull back and go once around the track if lucky. That's it. That is the whole toy. My son loves Cars and this was a flop with him.

Small portable Racetrack3
I purchased the Pixar Cars Race and Chase set as a last minute addition to my 3 year old son's Christmas gifts. I got the set on sale for around $5 and for this amount it is a great value. I would say it is not worth over $10. Anyway, the set came with a tiny pull back Lightning McQueen and a tiny pull back Sally race car, and 4 pieces of track that snap together in a 12 inch circle. There was a cardboard background too, but it was really cheap looking and we just threw it out. I'm surprised at how much my son has played with this toy already - I like the fact that it is small enough to throw in a tote to take to Grandma's house.
