Amazon.com Product Description
If you have a Diego- or animal-loving kid in your life, let them join in the critter-rescuing fun with this African safari set. Dora's older cousin is out saving wildlife in need with the help of friends Juma and Baby Jaguar. An electronic computer plays animal sounds to help you figure out which animal is currently in a desperate situation. The amazing details on the baby elephant, giraffe, and baboon make it easy to make up dangerous circumstances, while the all-terrain vehicles help Juma and Diego execute the rescue missions.  | | Help Diego and Juma save the baby animals on this African safari. |
Once the animals are safe and sound, the electronic computer can play fun Latin beats that you can dance around to. Maybe the animals will join in the fun, too! If kids are too small to create their own heroics, they can follow along with the included activity cards. Other accessories in the set include: fully articulated 2.5" Diego and Juma figures, two vehicles for the African terrain, the park ranger's office, Baby Jaguar, three animals, a tree, and 45 interchangeable pieces. Three 1.5v non-rechargeable batteries are also included so that the fun can start right out of the box.

 Diego's disapointing Safari January 8, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
The blocks do not fit together snug enough to stay together, never mind playing with it assembled, it falls apart trying to assemble... My son is 3 and was very excited to get it from Santa but very disappointed to find that he is unable to play with it as advertised because it is so poorly made.
Good for block lovers and Diego lovers January 7, 2008

I've had good luck with all mega block sets we've had, and this is no exception. My son enjoys playing with it. Hoping it does not get recalled like so many other Dora/Diego related items we've had in the past.
 We love Diego's Safari! January 6, 2008

My three-year-old son loves anything related to Diego. I was able to buy this set from Amazon on sale before Christmas. My child and his cousins absolutely loved playing with this toy on Christmas Day at Grandma's house. This set can be used interchangeably with some of the other Mega Block sets.
Great toy, lots of possibilities January 2, 2008

This was one of two Diego Mega Bloks sets that I got for my 5 year old for Xmas. He's old enough for smaller legos, but because he has a 2 year old brother, I've been hesitant to bring those "chokables" into our house. This was a great compromise: both my kids can play with this and no choking hazard, really. There are some small pieces, but I think it was a good investment. They can (and do) build lots of different play-things out of this one set, so they can really be imaginative. All of the pieces are sturdy and durable, so I think this set will be around for a long time.
Excellent Product for 3 and up! December 26, 2007

My son has several Diego toys, including the $40 Rescue Center, which I think is a piece of junk. So, at Christmas, I bought him this set to replace the other one. Well, all I can say is this is the set to get! It was so easy to set up and it came with little picture cards to show different configurations that my about to turn 4 year old could almost do by himself, and the pieces stick together great! Unlike the Spiderman and friends Mega Blocks that I also purchased, which do not fit tightly, this set is nice and tight and very well made. Also, unlike many other Mega Blocks sets, you can make everything pictured at the same time! A huge plus in my opinion! We have gotten too many other sets where you can only make one thing at a time, although several are pictured! Well worth the money, especially at the sale price! Highly recommend!
