Cons
Con Many vehicles are not worthwile
Many of the vehicles in Toybox Turbos do not race that well, meaning they are pretty much useless for advancing in the game and winning races.

The game tries to blend different mythologies together into one story containing many different gods. While this is not the worst story to try and tell, once the gameplay begins the story pretty much falls to the wayside.
