MINIATURE HEROES (AND VILLAINS) !!!

Advantages: Fantastic Star Wars toys ideal for younger fans. Chunky, cute and collectable !!!
Disadvantages: The popularity of Galactic Heroes makes several of the more popular characters hard to find

...and it wasn't long before HASBRO realised that these miniature Star Wars Junior figures were rapidly becoming the most sought after Star Wars toys of 2002. Their response was simple ... they purchased the rights to the Star Wars Junior franchise and renamed them "GALACTIC HEROES" !!! GALACTIC HEROES Galactic Heroes were initially sold in packs of two figures. Wave 1 was based on the Star Wars Episode 4 (A New Hope) and featured the following ...
...time of writing this review Hasbro have released 21 Waves of Galactic Heroes 2-Pack Figures as well as 30 Vehicles, Cinema Scenes and a number of special Galactic Heroes figures. Standard Galactic Heroes 2-Packs are sold everywhere these days and can be found in toy shops, supermarkets and department stores ... they sell for around £3.99 and as each new "wave" is released they tend to sell out very quickly.

Review of Hasbro Star Wars Galactic Heroes Figures

Mr Potato Head is just so Cool!!!

Advantages: Lots of combinations
Disadvantages: Small parts that go missing easily

Now if its fun you want then this Mr Potato Head is just brilliant. I got mini one of these free with a McDonalds Happy Meal about 2 years ago. Since then i've purchased 3 Mr Potato heads for my little boy. He loves playing with all the different parts, Mustache, Eyes, Nose, Feet, Teeth and Hat. And the fact that you can stick the parts anywhere on the Mr Potato Head is a bonus. This toy creates hours of fun and its one that keeps coming back out ...

Review of Playskool Mr Potato Head

Ron Weasley figure

Advantages: Looks like Ron, durable
Disadvantages: small wand accessory

Perfect Harry Potter figure for collectors and for kids to play with! Ron Weasley is Harrys best friend and a must have figure for any fans. This figure looks just like Ron from the films but the figures are based on the 5th film Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. This figure comes with Rons wand and his patronus when bought as a single figure. If bought as part of a set he will only come with his wand as an accessory. The wand is obviously ...
...special care or attach it to the figures hand with sellotape or blu tack!! This figure is approximately 3 and 3/4 inches tall in proportion with the rest of the Harry Potter figures. The figures I find are very durable and tough and should withstand play by children. They do have an age limit of 4+ as they come with the wand accessory which is a choking hazard to younger children. The figure can also be bought quite cheaply at supermarkets so ...

Yo Ho Ho, and a Bottle of Wine (I don't like Rum!)

Advantages: It packs neatly away
Disadvantages: No good if you don't like pirates!

...present when they found the Playmobil Pirates Treasure Chest. ☆ The Pirate Treasure Chest ☆ The pirate treasure chest is made of brown plastic, and has gold coloured plastic detailing, including a fake keyhole, to give it that authentic treasure chest look. It has a carrying handle which collapses into the top of the chest. The chest measures just over 30 cm wide and stands about 25 cm tall. There is a simple opening clasp on each side, ...
...This chest is filled with Playmobil goodies. There are three Pirates in the chest. All of them are dressed differently and all in definite pirate attire. Pirate one has a rather large hat, complete with feather, he has a pirates of the Caribbean style beard. He wears a long black cape, and has a very large necklace around him, obviously showing off some of his treasure. Pirate two is a rather poor looking, bare footed pirate and he comes complete ...

Gogos. Why do kids rave about them?

Advantages: Activity which engages children of all ages, even the Grand parents can play
Disadvantages: Very small not suitable for young children who put things in their mouth

...also the creators of other Magic Box Collections which include Pokemon. This website even gives you an opportunity to create your own Gogo. A few months on since writing my original review on Gogos my son aged three and my daughter eleven are still collecting them, and they are still the perfect currency in our household for rewarding good behaviour and household chores, especially if you don't want your children buying sweets all the time. ...
