I think we used crayons for almost everything. I made candles out of my crayons for our hide out camp. Melted sheets of crayons in gas for a type of sticky burning napalm.
Back in the day when kids were allowed to play with molten substances. I recall the army soldier maker. I probably still have the burn scars. I imagine the slow gearing of this toy is to give the wax time to solidify before the child gets hold of it. Honestly, as I watched you play with this toy, I was having flashbacks of my own childhood and playing with stuff like this. Thank You for that.
I had this as a kid and loved it. I'm 51 now and today was helping my mother clean her attic out and found a box of my old matchbox cars, inside were 4 of these wax cars. They still roll better than 90% of the die-cast cars. Wish my boys could have had something cool like this.
When I was 2 or 3 or 4, back in in the late 1970's, my older sister let me play with her Li'l Coffin car. I'd only ever had bigger cars to play with before, like Tonka trucks, that could hold up to really rough play. And I pushed too hard on the car and I bent both axles so that the tires came up horizontally. And then the car got lost in a gap between the floor and the wall of our stairway during construction of our house, in 1976-1978. I knew where it was, but I couldn't get to it. Not until the whole house was renovated in 2000, and the stairway was reconfigured in 2001 was I able to retrieve the car and return it to my relieved/disappointed big sister. She still keeps that car, in a safe place away from her grandchildren.
They would never release something like this now. Choking hazard, burn hazard, and how many other hazards? It was things like these that made childhood fun.
I love old toys like this. The cars honestly look awesome. If they did something like this now, the cars would probably break in under a second after cooling down and wouldn’t look half as good. This is really awesome. Great find!
Got this same exact set for Christmas as a kid and are 45 now, this is one of the toys I look back on and have a lot of memories with. The heater isn't slow because its old, it was just slow. The beauty was breaking down cars and mixing the wax to make swirled colors and such, and of course putting them in the freezer for faster curing time lol. Us 70s and 80s kids had the best toys period! Thanks for the video!
RED! It has two engines so obviously it goes the fastest. Also when I was a kid I had a similar toy except we made mold-able bugs/worms instead of cars.
Whoever came up with this is awesome, such a great idea and it leaves kids with a sense of pride feeling like they created something cool. I wasn't born till 87 but I would have loved experimenting with this as a kid.
Omg I finally found it on the web. For years I've been looking for this. I had one when I was a kid in the 80s. Got it for Christmas from a family member. For the longest time I've been looking for this online. I would ask people about it and they said they never heard of it. For awhile I started to think it didn't exist and it was just a dream I had. Thank You so much for this video. Seen this again is like a check off my bucket list.
God I remember this! I was actually thinking about it recently but couldn't remember exactly what it was called. Just from watching this I can still remember the smell this thing gave off. I got mine for Christmas in '79...I was 8. Dude...THANK YOU for posting this. I needed this trip back to my childhood. Continued success, my friend.
I still have one of these that my little next door neighbor "boyfriend" made me when I was a small kid. I remember this as being a popular Christmas toy as 2 of the neighbor boys and a cousin or two of mine had these. When they ran out of pods, there was a rash of candle theft in the neighborhood.
I had this as a kid in the early 80's. I love this as a kid. The cars came out great!! I grew up in North Jersey, and we used to play a street game called bottle caps, also known as skully. I used to use this to melt crayons to pour inside of the beer bottle caps and put a penny inside the bottle cap to weigh it down to make it slide better on the street.
I found one of those in an abandoned house back when I was a kid. I made countless cars with it until the heating element burned out. It made me smile hearing those clunky gears again
It was when I first got this that I realized I had o.c.d. I absolutely hated to use the new wax pods. ( I didn't want to "ruin" them) kind of like with a new can of play-doh. I did, however, make and race hundreds of these little guys. Great fun!
On one hand, no more of these will be made, so it seems a shame to use the pods. But on the other hand, what’s the point if no one gets to appreciate it? This is the best way for everyone to see it, a very clear enjoyable video that can be seen by millions of people.
Glad you like it. I collect toys and it is hard to open a mint toy, but I do it so we get a good idea what it did originally. I have opened many games like that! A lot of collectors probably cringe!
This used to be my favorite channel when I was just a tad younger now I'm glad I found it again *I stopped watching about 5-6 years ago and started maybe 8 years ago
I was 7 when I got one of these, and when the heating element broke down and my grandpa (who could practically create electrical circuits out of thin air) said it was broken for good, I just about died inside.
Got this cool toy for Christmas in 78 along with evil kenevil, Star Wars stuff, Tyco race track and Tyco train set. If you were a kid in the 70’s you had a lot of cool toys. And Kiss was the best rock group !!!!
I used to end up bending all the wheels/axles trying to put them in. Not that it was difficult, I just wasn't the most adept 6yr old around 😅 I do also remember the smell of this thing, funny that a scent can bring my childhood back so clearly. Gotta thank my parents for giving me such a great childhood.
Thanks for showing this video. I had one as a kid and was trying to explain it to my kids. I loved this toy. We would reuse the cars by breaking them apart or used old crayon pieces.
Few years ago they released the "Car Maker", but its just the top, and you snap it on a generic base by your choice depending on the wheels. The process is a little more complex, the mold is like a 2 parts shell, and you "inject" the wax thru a lever.
+Jordan 2791 lol so cool...I'm in my 40s and I want one. I got one for my kid when he was little, but we can't find it now. We were talking about making crayons the other day and I brought up the car maker. I'm going to have to go find a crayon maker on eBay now. LoL
In 1979 I was working on buying my first car. I ended up with a 69 pontiac Catalina for $400. It only lasted 3 months before the timing chain and gear failed. I ended up getting a 1974 AMC Matidor. That was all in 1979. Strange year and fun toys. Now kids just want video games. Iam an old kid now and have RC cars and planes. Much more fun I can tell you that.
I had a friend with one of these as a kid! His was the only one i've ever seen until now. But, this is it exactly. I remember playing with it. We used emergency candles and colored them with pieces of broken crayons. Good times.
This brings back memories. My brother had one of these, and I got to play with it occasionally. We didn't have the car wheels or wax pods. If I remember correctly, I melted down old crayons to make cars.
the only issue is crushing them into small enough pieces to feed back in through the top. That's probably what all the discoloration is from-- various types of wax pieces scraping against the plastic.
Man this is one of the coolest thing I've ever seen, I had the Monster factory back when I was a kid, but if they did something like this I would've asked for it instead so much!! This would've been a dream for the kid me (well, also now ahah)
I had this toy!! I loved it. I quickly ran out of the factory wax so I would use candle wax. The problem with the candle wax was it would shrink down more than the factory wax would. When the cars would break you simply took the wheels out of the wax and broke the car up to remelt and re cast. The advantage of candle wax was you could get many more colors.
I used to have one of those strangely my sister's crayons disappeared. But I ended up breaking the top off of mine made the process go alot faster. Great video.

I had this as a kid. When I rad out of pods I was melting crayons instead and worked great. Always loved this set.
I did the same thing with the crayons. But the color selection was better 🙂
Those wax pods waited over 30 years to become cars
40 years lol

How did it melt.

I remember wanting that for Christmas back when I was about nine. Now I'm 57 and I would still play with it! I would make cars all day!
This was my most favorite toys as a kid....I played with it all the time...I used crayons when I ran out of wax

Why don't they make stuff like this these days???
they do
Yeah i beleve they do
Spideydoesgaming WHERE DO I BUY THEM!?
because toy's in this generation are mostly expensive and trash.
+tristan digert uhmm I'm pretty sure at average places like target, toys r us, and probably Walmart... also eBay if ur desperate
Love this, I still have mine in the attic, in the box, with all the parts! I used up the original pods and used crayons, candles, previous cars etc !
Darn why do the 1900s have all the cool stuff
Ikr!
Because those were the inventive years.

I love old school toys, they have the REAL good quality.
My son begged me to say that my his favorite car was the blue one! We love your videos, thank you for making them!
Holy moly, this has the same vibes as the crayola “melt and mold” factory I had as a child!
If it breaks you could just melt and recast it.

Gates KOORBA yep all you gotta do melt the wax with something and have something to catch it and boom you can remake it

That would be ice. :)
Wait how would it melt

That's sick! (In a good way)
Back when kids liked to make things and had interesting toys. Was fun growing up in the 70's
Cool thing is you break one of these all you need to do is get the axle out and recycle it.
GIVE THIS CAR FACTORY!!! This is very cool 😭
They should remake this with some sort of epoxy resin or similar. Its SOOO cool.
The way things are going they're going to have kid maker kits where they 3D print things. Lol
Few years ago they released the "Car Maker", but its just the top, and you snap it on a generic base by your choice depending on the wheels. The process is a little more complex, the mold is like a 2 parts shell, and you "inject" the wax thru a lever.

I had this as a kid. Loved it. Still have it. My kid played with it as a little boy, using crayons to make cars.
Is there an electric heater or works it only with using chemicals?
Omg.. Thank you so much for this video! This was one of my fav toys, brought back such GREAT memories!!!
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
CAN you do that with chocolate ?
No, the ingredients are sticky, so it will be hard to mold, plus flies will try to eat it
man I had 1 of these when I was 5-6yo. thank you for the memories!
Oml I remember watching his videos in like 2012 or something
Same, he used to be my favorite
This brings back memories. My brother had one of these, and I got to play with it occasionally. We didn't have the car wheels or wax pods. If I remember correctly, I melted down old crayons to make cars.
What about recycling the cars? Can the cars be broken down and reuse the wax?
Yes they can be remelted.
the only issue is crushing them into small enough pieces to feed back in through the top. That's probably what all the discoloration is from-- various types of wax pieces scraping against the plastic.
