![]() On the plus side, there’s nothing that can snap off if one goes flying over the side of a table. Kids won’t mind, but big kids such as myself might prefer something a little more realistic. They’ve been reimagined in a similar vein to Anki’s other vehicles, so they’re quite toy-like and verging on cartoonish – more Hot Wheels than Scalextric. The two vehicles that come in the box are Dom’s Ice Charger and Hobbs’ International MXT truck, which will be familiar to fans of the Fast & Furious movies. Having grown up with a monster Scalextric set, getting sore fingers from snapping it all together and not really wanting to change it once it was up and running, Anki Overdrive has been a revelation. Pulling it apart and building a different course takes a matter of seconds it’s ridiculously easy. The track itself is vinyl sheet with a couple of magnets at each end to join it together. Between those extremes are wacky things such as a jump set, a crossing, and a kit to make banked turns. Obviously, if you want to go bigger and better, Anki sells expansion sets that range from a pair of extra straights or corners, right up to a 23-piece mega-bundle. There are eight different track layouts you can make, and they’re all clearly illustrated on the box. One of the straights in this set has a new ‘Power Zone’, however. You get four straights (including one with a start-finish line), six 90-degree corners with guard rails, and a pair of track risers so you can make a figure-of-eight course. The track supplied in the Fast & Furious Edition is almost the same as in the standard starter set. Anki Overdrive: Fast & Furious Edition – What do you get?
