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.

Need a new hobby ? Then why not build your very own Clone Army ?
Advantages: Fantastic action figures. The Battle Pack offers value for money compared to buying single figures Disadvantages: Discovering that your home has been invaded by Clone Troopers !!!
... ~ HASBRO TOYS ~
Hasbro has been producing a wide range of Star Wars products for many years [from kids toys to adult collectables] and they have pulled out all the stops for the Animated Clone Wars range. Everything from the simple [but effective] packaging design to the quality of the toys themselves has been exremely well thought out and in my opinion the Clone Wars toys are some of Hasbro's finest to date. The characters in the traditional ... ...as "TARGET EXCLUSIVES". Every year HASBRO produce several Star Wars sets and figures which can only be purchased from TARGET STORES ... they are often Limited Edition and have a unique packaging design which incorporates the TARGET Logo. Many sets and figures are mass produced and are easy to get hold of. Others, however, are Limited Editions and there may have only been 500 produced ... thise who were unable to get to a TARGET Store to collect these ...

star wars collectables-future investment?
Advantages: playable, robust, collectable Disadvantages: can be expensive, too many to collect
Star wars unleashed battle figures are very collectable and they come in a variety of packs and prices.
For instance there is the Star Wars: Unleashed Battlepack - Episode IV Rebel Blockade Troopers, which onsists of four blockade troupers or Star Wars: Unleashed Battlepack - Episode IV Commanders, which consists of Princess Leia, Lord Darth Vader, Rebel Commander and Grand Moff Tarkin.
Or maybe you would like Star Wars Unleashed Battle Pack ''Battle ... ...Pack ''Battle of Hoth'' Imperial Snowtroopers.
Then there is Star Wars Unleashed Order 66 Shock Trooper Battalion and Star Wars Unleashed Order 66 A New Empire.
You see what I mean? I am not much of a Star Wars fan but my son is and he collects the figures and seems to know which ones he wants to collect.
I am sure that these kind of toys or collectables will be worth a bit more in the future so they are a good investment so my son told me.
The ...

Does Whatever A Spider Spud Does
Advantages: Great toy for the boys in your life Disadvantages: Daddy won't let his little boy play with it.
***Background***
Boys will be boys - or so the saying goes. What I really think the saying should be is that men will be boys, at least when it comes to things like Star Wars and Spiderman. Manufacturers have been cashing in on this for years now and this one is no exception.
I used to have a Mr Potato Head when I was a child and according to my mum, I used to play with it for hours. I had his good lady too and although I can't really remember ... ...Toy Story came out.
One thing I'm not a fan of is Spider-Man but it was inevitable that it would touch my life considering my husband and son love it. This toy was bought for my husband's Christmas and yes it was me that bought it so I guess I only have myself to blame for allowing his obsession to carry on. ***The Age Limit***
It says on the box that this toy is suitable for all children aged 2 and above and that I think says it all when it comes ...

Advantages: Mr Potato Head has yet another successful make over ... GENIUS !!! Disadvantages: None ...
~~~ Introduction ~~~
I remember being a small kid and whenever I heard this ...
Transformers. Robots In Disguise. Transformers. More Than Meets The Eyes ... I knew that my favourite TV show was about to start !!!
The intergalactic battle between the brave and heroic Autobots and the evil and sneaky Decepticons was awesome and I loved Optimus Prime ... together with Luke Skywalker he was one of my heroes. When I grew up my love ... ...thing that does it for me !!! Then of course, a couple of years ago we were treated to the big screen return of the Transformers ... and erm, Megan Fox ;)
Anyway ... being a sci-fi fan and colector I have several versions of Optimus Prime (including my own original toy from way back then) but one of my favourites is a little guy who goes by the name of Optimash Prime !!!
~~~ Optimash Prime ~~~
Yup, that's right folks not content with dabbling ...
