I think my son was six or 7 when i got his Tamiya Mad Bull.. but he hardly used it... it was too much ME wanting him to have it rather then HIM wanting it. I think the idea of the Tamiya QD is a good idea though, its ore like a toy car.. and at that ages, that is all they will want.
I think the lunchbox is too unpredicatble for that age froup, i know the mad bull was.
ps - have you seen the price of the Lunchbox in Argos?.. robin g1ts....
