Lightstax Fire Truck Review Plus Giveaway

A few weeks ago at Blog On Toys, I got to check out the brand new Light and Sound Stax! Knowing at Lily's daddy was a big construction toy fan and that Lily loved fire engines I was super happy to try out the new Hybrid Fire truck and tell you, all my readers, all about it. 


Stax is your classic construction brick toy, but with a difference. It now has introduced light and sound to make construction even more fun. The new Hybrid series combines Light Stax and Sound Stax and regular bricks to make the sets even more imaginative. 

The clever thing about Light Stax and Sound Stax is that it is all brought together with out wires! Instead, each brick contained a powerful LED.

This toy is recommended for 6+ and so Lily's daddy got to be the one who built this for Lily.

First impressions of the toy for Lily's daddy was that he was excited that it had noise blocks and light up blocks. He really is a big kid and so getting to build a fire engine was really fun for him. Lily helped by passing him the pieces which she enjoyed to do and she was really excited and eager for it to be built so then she could play with it.

Her daddy said he was really impressed with the design of the toy, and the quality. It all stuck together really well and the instructions were clear and easy on how to build it. 

When it is all built up it looks great! Lily was really enjoying pushing it around and she was also loving that it made noise and lit up. It really does make a great loud fire engine sound. Something that kids will love but may drive parents insane. Luckily it is really easy to take the battery out of for those times you want a little peace and quiet.

The ladders on top of the fire engine are great and there is a special brick that makes the ladders raise up and down again. I did find that the ladders did keep falling off though through play. The details of the fire truck are great and it even has a little steering wheel inside. Lily has been very pleased with her fire truck.



The set comes with 189 bricks, as well as 27 Stax which includes the light Stax. It retails at £19.26 and can be bought from Amazon.

  6. Fire Engine :- A very popular toy. One with lights and sound, just bliss for children. As great for when they are involved in imaginative play. Who wants to drive the fire engine, be a firefighter and protect people, pets, etc from being harmed from dangerous fire. They would happily interact their stories.
