Tell me about Oompa wood cars and food...

[mykidsmom]

Does anyone have these cars from Oompa Toys? Is $8.49 a good price or do you know where I can find them cheaper. Also, I would rather buy from a store locally to avoid shipping costs. Do you know if any regular chain type toy stores carry this type of wooden toy car?

Here is the link to see the car... (cut and paste if it won't let you click on it) THANKS!!

Also, does anyone have the Oompa wooden vegetables?? Do you recommend them?

My son has some Baja cars/trucks - he's especially fond of the the fire engine (super cute) since it jingles, but he also has a couple of small cars

They are really great... maybe smaller than I was originally expecting (look carefully at the dimensions) but then again, they are quite portable. He really likes them.

I live in the Chicago area and I haven't seen these wooden cars/trucks at any of the chains or the small specialty toy stores - so you may have a hard time finding them locally.

good luck
