Disclosure: I received the K’NEX® Star Shooter Roller Coaster and compensation to help facilitate this review. All opinions are, as always, my own.
My daughter and I took a trip to Walmart to pick out a K’NEX® building set. S chose the K’NEX® Star Shooter Roller Coaster since we had just returned home from Disney World and she loved riding all the roller coasters. The Star Shooter Coaster is motorized which makes this building set so much fun! The motor pulls the car up the chain lift and then sends it spiraling through the track! 
S was so excited to open the package. As soon as we got home she couldn’t wait to start assembling. While the instructions were easy to follow, it did take the better part of an afternoon to put together – there are 434 pieces! It was a great activity for my husband and S to work on together.
I love toys like K’NEX® that are hands on and allow your child to learn in a fun way. For example, S and I had a whole conversation about gravity while the Star Shooter was racing down the track.
S has said many times since we assembled the K’NEX® Star Shooter Roller Coaster, “I love how fast it goes and it was fun building it“. It’s been a week now and S still turns on the Star Shooter multiple times a day to watch the car move on the track.
The K’NEX® Star Shooter Roller Coaster is recommend for builders ages 7+, however my daughter who is almost 5 with the help of her dad had no problems assembling the coaster and loved watching it go around and around the track. The building set does require 2 AA batteries, which are not included, so make sure to pick them up too.
Well done! I am hoping Knex gets back in the swing of things and produces more products. Where did you facilitate this sponsored review?
KNEX has several different motorized building sets out right now! They all look like so much fun!
My daughters would love this because they enjoy building stuff. I’m surprise they didn’t have this on their Christmas list. They must not know about this.
KNEX has several different Roller Coasters to choose from. I think your girls would definitely enjoy one!
This is looks like it would provide hours of creative fun !
Lots of fun to assemble and I love that she keeps pulling it out to watch it go!
Wow this is awesome! I’d love to get this to challenge my 10 yr old.
It is definitely fun! And I was pleasantly surprised by the price considering the cost of other building sets.
OK, this is just freaking awesome! I can’t wait til my little one is old enough to help build and play with Knex!
The K’NEX is really a lot of fun!
My daughters love K’NEX and watching the roller coaster go on the track over and over. They are very educational, you just have to do a little research to make it a learning lesson. 🙂
That’s the best part – that’s motorized! 🙂
Ok. This is awesome! I want one for myself 😉
Sometimes I wonder if the toy is for my daughter or for us 🙂
This looks amazing! I love the photos you took, too! My husband would love this set!
Thank you Ondria!
My boys would LOVE this!
It is so much fun to play with!
