Word for word from Box on RIGHT in photo: Thunderbird Speedster with Automatic Stop & Go, Open & shut ACTION. Red tail lite shines when car stops. This amazing car starts and stops the driver opens the door when the car starts the driver shuts the door, the car starts again... the stop-n-go open-n-shut repeats automatically.
Word for word from Box on LEFT in photo: Marvellous Car Battery Operated. With Light. When hitting an object, this Marvellous Car moves aback with the RED TAIL LIGHTS on, changes its course and runs forward again with the HEAD LIGHTS on.
What these box descriptions describe different cars these two cars share the same body design. While the Thunderbird Speedster had "door action" continuous drive, and steerable front wheels, the Marvellous Car has bump-n-go action and working tailights AND headlights.
See if you can find what is the same and what is different between these high-end collectible battery operated cars in the video.
Special Note: Did you notice both cars are facing the same direction at the begining of the video yet drive off to seperate sides of the screens? If you noticed before reading this you are VERY spacially observant.
