The Roll-A-Scare Race Playset lets kids and parents play with the Roll-A-Scare Monsters Assortment (comes with a Mike and Sully, extra monsters are $7) and track to see who is the fastest. Similar to the popular craze Zoobles a few years ago, these monsters pop up when they hit the magnetized racetrack bottom. The monsters race down the track that you build together, or older kids can do it themselves, and then pop open as they pass through the finish line.  There are a total of 12 monsters you can collect to mix, match, and race with this playset. ($20 for Race Playset)
