the Answers

Why?
Simply put... we think Fisher-Price's Flip Track series is FUN!

Our first set, the Mountain, came from my parents in 1999 who found a partial used set and then were able to fill in the missing pieces.  Not to long after, I stumbled upon more Flip Track parts at Goodwill.  At the time, I wasn't familiar enough with the series to know if they went with the Mountain, but I took the risk and bought them anyway.  I doubt I would be the Flip Track Fanatic that I am, if I didn't buy the Garage that particular day.

Soon I was searching the web to see what else was available.  I realized quickly enough that the last Flip Track series ended four years earlier.  I also began to see the appeal of the Flip Track: doors and hoods that open, bridges that go up and down, aircraft with spinning propellers, and so on... and so on...  Thus began our quest.

Our objectives have been...
  • To complete one of every Flip Track Set that came out for our own personal use.
  • To find color variations of different vehicles and accessories.
  • To make incomplete sets complete to the best of our ability.
  • Share our Flip Track knowledge with you, and hopefully you can add to ours.

How long has this site been available?
Flip Track Land made its public debut November 26, 2000 by reference in our first four eBay Flip Track auctions.

On December 22, 2000, I was able to use a search engine (AltaVista) to locate Flip Track Land for the first time.

June 2001, the address of Flip Track Land (and its parent, Schnortz Productions) was relocated to its second home.  All of the web pages were moved to this addres as of May 2005.
