Amazon.com Product Description
You're a marine biologist scouting the deepest depths of ancient seas to find undiscovered creatures. As your man in the diving cage is attacked by a 50-foot Shark-Saurus, you know you have to act fast to save him and capture the great grey beast. Assemble your Mega Rig crew and prepare to launch the Shark Ship! With this building system, you can connect and combine (and disconnect and recombine) the included mega pieces to build over 30 boat or vehicle combinations. An added bonus is that every boat has wheels but also floats, making them ideal for play on land or in water. This Mega Rig set comes with a huge boat, paleo-sub, diving cage, harpoon gun, diver, boat captain, oversized oyster, and more. Oh, did we mention that it also includes the huge "chomping" shark? Get ready to set sail on one awfully big adventure!

My 5-year-old son and I discovered this while browsing and saw a video commercial on a web site I can no longer remember. Naturally, it ended up on his wish list. Luckily I was able to still get it at a reasonable price, but it will likely become more expensive since it is discontinued. The Mega Rig Shuttle Matchbox Mega Rig Space Shuttle [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]that was out this season is a great alternative, which is what my 8-year-old got for Christmas and it is one of his favorites. Both sets have entertained my boys for hours and they interchange parts, which has resulted in some bizzare and creative vehicles. The toys are durable and have not disappointed us, but I don't intend to let them put them in the bath tub. (The shuttle came with an alien ship that has electronic sound effects.) I would definitely opt for the frustration-free package because the shuttle in the regular package is screwed in and has a lot of wires and plastic.
 Good toy BUT Do not pay more than $40 for this December 5, 2008

Great toy. But, please do not think that it is worth spending more than $40 for it. Get into your car and go to the toy store to buy it yourself ( I bought it at toys r us for $35). Unfortunately Amazon has really lost my faith for the good deals here. Let the adult loosers who collect toys pay this and don't loose your bearings that this is acceptable to pay this amount. Same goes for the pirate ship from Imaginex.
Great Toy For Imagination December 4, 2008

We got this for our 3 1/2 yr old son last Christmas. It is all he wanted and all last fall, that's all he would say, "I want the Shark Ship".
Well 1 year later and it is still going strong. The toy is able to be made into many many different ships/crafts. He even takes it into the bath tub sometimes. He has even taken parts of the squid and incorporated them into the ships and vice-versa.
A tip would be to cut the box up and save the pictures so your little guy(or girl) can look at one and build it.
There are small pieces, but he never had a problem putting them in his mouth.
This is an overall GREAT toy.

Great Fun for my son and myself. The interchangeable parts are easy for my 5 year old to reconfigure and give the toy an almost unlimited number of different toys.
