Action Figure Reviews

For the most part this is a good toy. It was actually one of the easier items I took out of a box this week :)

My daughter (4) loves it and as long as you can tolerate the "Mommy/Daddy the wing fell off can you put it back on?" every 5-10 minutes then it really is good. I guess if your child is old enough and has the dexterity to put the wings back on by herself this toy would be GREAT!

My 6 year old daughter wanted this pegasus so badly and was thrilled when she received it for Christmas. I had read about the wings falling off, so I wasn't surprised when one of them was a constant problem. I didn't want to glue the wings on because then she would only be a pegasus, not a horse as well.

Now, my daughter is in tears because she brushed the mane and it has turned into a big purple afro. My daughter is not very rough on toys, but she wanted to brush the hair and you'd think since there was a brush and hair accessories included that the hair was brushable. NOT SO! I've tried to fix the hair but it seems to be permanently frizzed out a la finger in a light socket. I played with Barbies and Barbie horses as a child and never had one whose hair just turned into a rats nest. I'm disappointed and so is my daughter!

she is so enchanting. Breitta has beutiful wings, but for me they only come off if I bang her into something. Her crown lites up and looks so pretty if your playing in the night. Her hair looks very nice when you first get her out. The only thing is she has a hard box to open, but dont let that stop you from geting one of the best barbie horse ever.

While watching the news this evening I saw a broadcast of the Top 10 Hazardous Toys for 2005. This product was on the list for causing severe damage if a child hits another child or a pet. The blunt force can be very serious. I have seen this product in the stores for many weeks now and am sure many have been bought with the hype of the movie. I would say after seeing the news this evening and hearing the injuries that could be caused this product should be off the shelves immediately. I was surprised that ToysRUs still had it on the website for sale.

WHAT?! I see reviews saying that the Fantastic 4 Movie Electronic Thing Hands are similar to the Hulk Movie Electronic Hands that came out a few years back. ARE YOU KIDDING?! That is the densest thing I've ever heard! First of all, the Hulk hands were green.

But anyway, these hands are great for so many things...they are truly the world's most versatile toy. So I've decided to list the things they are NOT good for:

1) Homemade popsicles (unless you have a big freezer)
2) Reasoning with a jury.
3) Using post-it notes.
4) Praying to God.
5) Scrapbooking.

That's it. For every other situation they're ideal.

I bought the thing hands and feet for my 2 sons. They love them have had many hours playing.
Great toy with a great value.

This is my first review, to introduce my self, I will call my self the Jedi Master Collecter. Now let's learn about a toy that introduced it's self in 2005. It has opening cockpit, detailed stickers,firing missiles, and of course R2-D2 removable astromech droid. It is....of course-- the Anakin Skywalker Jedi Starfighter/Republic Interceptor. This interceptor was used to fight off buzz droids off of his master's ship, to crash land in the Hangar Bay of the Invisible Hand, and other cool missions. This vehicle is a very good choice out of episode III ships and vehicles out there. Even though it does not come with Anakin Skywalker who is the chosen one and destroys the evil Emperer Palpatine, but you can always pop a figure in there-- can't you?

This interceptor is fairly large, it is very acceptable and can fit into anyones collection, the cockpit can come OFF, so just set the two pegs between the two little walls. Small pieces can get lost and is highly suggested to 4 AND OLDER. The two missiles are dark gray and will blend in with other close colors. The size of this thing is radical and I love it. This ship is greatly detailed with super articulation. The X- like wings can open for "smoother flying".

At a good enough price, you get this one amazing toy/collectable. If you love star wars, or a true Star Wars fan; get this. Along with this Star Fighter, you can get a really cool instruction page with ways to play and mess around with this really cool item...or essential.

Introduction

So far,in the Episode III Line, you have seen figures,games, weapons, and vehicles. To me this Jedi Interceptor is just like the Obi-Wan Starfighter. There is no doubt that this ship has super durability and details. This vehicle does not come with Anakin! It comes with stickers, instruction booklet, and Fall 2006 Catalog! It comes with two firing missiles, two landing gears on bottom of ship (easier to land),opening cockpit, and removable R2-D2 droid. Anakin's Fighter has super articulation!

Over All

The stickers are simple to put on, except for ones in the cockpit, and you can put R2 stickers on R2-D2. Just like the battle above Coruscant, you can pilot this vehicle through "space". If you have someone who can't have small pieces keep the missiles in their original package or wait.

Review

This toy is fun to play with. You can not take the ship apart. The ship is just like the one in the movie.

When our 7 yrs old want the Anakin's ship I excepting a cheesey plastic toy and was shocked when I took it out of the box. It almost looks like a real fighter from the movie it has blaster marks for that real worn look, cockpit sticker he got to put in to make it more authentic and he loves playing with it.

As for it being durable not for my 3 years old who manage to break the cockpit door off in less then a minute of playing with it, and broke the half body r2d2 and now the wings won't pop open anymore when you push the button. But the cockpit can be reattach (about 100 time now) and the wing can be pulled up by your finger, as for r2d2 I just bought a really one to fit in the slot. over all great star ship

As the Clone Scout Walker is a previous released LEGO set from the Episode III line, we can conclude that the item is a bestseller. Just the other day at Toys R Us I walked around and found this LEGO Item but I noticed that the item has been around for what seems like a "decade". It is so easy to build but not very durable. Why isn't it durable? It's LEGO, little bricks that easily fall apart. Even though, the instructions are complete and are serious. The directions take you step by step to make sure you can complete the set.

The 2005 lego set (revenge of the sith came out in 2005) is a perfect add to a Star Wars buff's collection. "Execute order 66" the tragic end of one jedi, falls; just because of the command, the blast came from.....the clone scout walker! It can be tough at first to build, but even easier to add to your collection. This is my favorite lego version of star wars transportation.

To any star wars fan out there, I would suggest to buy this LEGO vehicle because it is easy to build, and fun to play with. Because of small pieces it would be and idea to 5 and older. For just a price at $[...] it is tough to beat and pass up.

This Lego set is one of the smaller sets in our Star Wars collection, but the small size goes along with the value of this set. For the price you can buy several of these sets and build a substantial Star Wars diorama.

The set has a lot of features. The front gun mount swivels left and right. A shield in front of the Clone Trooper driver swivels with the gun. The shield can be tilted at various angles to aid the driver in protecting himself and for visibility. The legs are movable along three joints to give the clone walker a variety of stances. The Clone Trooper that comes with the set has a blaster that you can support on the clone walker.

This set has a few pieces that stick out and thus can come off easier than some of the pieces. However, this set is one of the more durable Star Wars Lego sets, and would hold up well in simulated combats.

The bigger Star Wars Lego sets have a lot of features and are great for displays. However, the bigger sets are relatively expensive and I am always afraid of having a piece come off. This set has fewer features, but the pieces are durable and the set can easily be reassembled, encouraging play. This set is a worthy addition to the collection of most children from ages 7 to more than 100. I recommend buying several of these sets to stage mock battles and to use in combination with larger sets. Script your own Star Wars adventures! Enjoy!

This toy comes with detailed instructions and is a great add to your collection. You now have a good set that comes with the clone scout walker!
This lego set will be your favorite!

My husband received this for a gag present, and my 3 year old daughter loves it. It's by far her favorite of her Mr. Potato head collection, along with Spudtrooper. I'm not sure if it's the lightsaber or the cape, but something about this toy captivates her. If you're a Mr. Potato Head fan, whether young or old, this is a must have. We're looking forward to adding Artoo-Potatoo to the family when he's available also. :)

Yes, The Big kids will love that you remember them and remember them with a Star Wars kitsch type toy!!!! It is a bedroom delight for the eye that collects grins and dust!!!!

Ok I bought this for my son's three year old birthday, When I first saw it I knew I had to have it because one it was too funny DARTh Tater. We have the original anyway, My son plays with this when ever he gets out the rest of his star wars stuff and it is sooooo durable. He throws, drives trucks over it. The only thing is that the cape is alittle bit hard for him to put on, But he loves it just the same.

This toy is cheaply made and was not well designed. Parts do not fit snugly and tend to fall off. The support legs collapse under the slightest of pressure or downforce. My son is a big fan of Star Wars and yet even he became frustrated and quickly disinterested in this toy. Don't waste your money.

I remember seeing the power of the force version of this at Toysrus back in 96. I could never get it though. When they remade it for the Star Wars trilogy I was very excited. It was first on my Christmas list. When I pulled it out of the box Christmas morning and started to put it together, I suddenly realized this wasn't going be a cool toy.

Pros: The Falcon is really detailed and cool looking. It is more fun to display it some were then to play with it.

Cons: The hinges on the doors suck, the instructions for putting the decals on are very poorly written, you can't fit 2 guys in the cockpit, the ship is not to scale with the figures, you can't just pick it up and start flying around because the doors will fall off, and last, but not least, it cost fifty bucks.

I don't know. I thought this would be a cool and I'd be playing with it for hours, but I guess that not the case. You should have got more for your buck. You would think Hasbro would spend a bit more time on this. I am a big Star Wars fan, but I didn't find anything to special about this ship. Skip this one and save your money.

this is a must buy product for any starwars fan. it very well detaialed, has many features and is very good for both display and play.

I'm always having too much attention with Scorponok,he's allways going to others'personal space and attacking them,especially Megatron and Optimus.He's always showi'n of his muscels and good looks which ticks off especially Megatron.That's why most people gang up on him.Scorponok transforms to a hover jet and mechanical scorpion.He also has bigg'ol claws and a stinger full of electricity and raw energon.He's in my main ofice on top of a summit pumping himself up sayi'n;"I'm the best of all you weaklings!AH HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!!!And Megatron shall pay for dissing my master Alpha Q!All he wanted was to have back his planet and this is what he gets!You people sicken me!"He drives every one crazy!We'lp,gotta get goin!

looks great, interesting transformation, sounds are greatly improved from the deluxe armada figues, BUT!

i think the collector obsession with tight joints has gotten to hasbro's collective brain. the last couple of energon toys i got (scorponok and arcee) have both been TOO tight, by a lot, and with scorponok it's so much the case that some of his semi-detachable parts tend to come off during every transformation.

...but they pop back on easily enough, so it's not that big a deal.

i'm mostly a g1 fan, so i kinda wish he was a LOT bigger, but as it is now he's sitting in my office comfortably and threateningly holding arcee off the ground with one hand and scaring the crap out of starscream with the other.

neat.



oh, my other gripe is some minor difficulty in posability. his legs and arms aren't really as flexible as they might be, and he can't stand freely in robot mode with his tail up.

I really like my Scorponok figure. I've heard several complaints about tight joints and the like, but I have no problem with them. Still not quite used to the "ratchet" joints that they're using alot more of in the mega and ultra figures. As for the poseability to these joints, I'd say it's relatively good. Overall a really fun toy if you can deal with the noises that go with it (take out the batteries if they bother you).

I recently gave this car as a birthday gift to a four year old boy in my home daycare. He loves it so much! It is very detailed and yet still very rugged. He has had two problems with it but an older child would have more patience. It's difficult getting his Batman to sit all the way down in the seat. And unless he's all the way down, the top won't close and has popped off (it looks difficult to pop off, but this kid has done it). It's easy for an adult to pop back on. The second issue has been getting the arrows that shoot out back into the guns. You have to rotate them until they pop in. These are pretty minor problems if you have a child with a little patience and the overall quality far outweighs these issues.

i bought this version of the Batmobile instead of the RC version because it was not as pricey and didn't require a separately-purchased, expensive battery. this version is a great Batmobile. the electronic lights and sounds are cool, the rockets hide great inside the chassis, everything looks great. it's great to roll across the floor and startle any sleeping pets. the only problem? the Battle Gear Batman figure i have DOES NOT fit in the cockpit. the cockpit is way too small, requiring you to bend and jam your Batman action figure's limbs and trying unsuccessfully to force it into the cockpit seat, and even then it doesn't fit. i like to take care of my things, since i see them more as collector's items rather than toys. i wanted this Batmobile to be a safe place for my Batman figure, which normally lies out in the open. so unfortunately, this is a big disappointment. oh well, the rest of the Batmobile looks great!

I saw this toy at my [...] and decided to suprise my 3&4 year old. This was the best money I have ever spent and would have gladly paid 10x that amount. My sons have found many of their other action figures that fit into the cockpit and even have ones whose hands fit on the steering wheel. I am looking for a Batman figure but they are happy while I searching. The sounds, push button action and missle lauching is perfect for little fingers. There are so many additional features on this toy that they have made this their favorite toy. Buzz and Spiderman have now subcum to BATMAN!!!!!

My 2 year old LOVED this toy but I returned it because it kept going off track in the same spot. The train would not complete the full circle 8 as described and was intended to do. I was tired of my son yelling "it broke" every time he tried to use it. Sad because he really enjoyed it the 3/4th's of the track that it did stayed on.

THIS LIL' PEOPLE TRAIN SET IS JUST WONDERFUL.
THIS WILL BE MY 7TH PURCHASE OF THIS PRODUCT.
EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS BEEN GIVING BIRTH TO BOY CHILDREN, AND WE KNOW HOW BOYS LOVE TRAINS...
I FEEL THIS TOY IS GREAT FOR BOTH SEXES ACTUALLY...
IT HAS MANY GREAT LEARNING TOOL QUALITIES.
IT SEEMS TO BE A FAVORITE TOYS BY MOST.
I AM HOPING THAT NOW, MY GOD DAUGHTERS SONS WILL ENJOY MANY YEARS TO COME PLAYING WITH THIS PRODUCT, AS OTHERS HAVE.

We purchased this item for my son for Christmas '05. He was 12 months old at the time. We set it up in the living room under the tree, along with several other presents, and it was the first thing that our son went for in the morning. (I have to mention that my husband played with it for the better part of an hour the night before.)

The conductor is the perfect size to be used as a Binky. The poor little conductor stayed in our son's mouth for the rest of Christmas morning, and a lot of the time since then. He plays with the train every day, but usually just with the engine. He brings it into the kitchen or living room, and it runs quite well on most floor surfaces; carpet, linoleum, tile. It bogs down a little on the bathroom rug, but I don't see that as being a problem.

I think that this toy has great staying power. Right now, my son (at 13 months) does not really play with the set as intended; i.e. running the train around the track, but he gets a lot of enjoyment out of it and I believe it will hold his attention for the next few years. We have a few other Fisher-Price Little People sets (like the Ramps Around Garage) and are planning on adding more over the next year, and it's nice that all the pieces are compatible and you can basically build a little city.

There are a lot of cute details of the train set that you may not see by looking at the box. In the "farm" area, the windmill on the barn turns. At the train depot, the clock hands turn. And my favorite is the "country" area. There is a swing in the tree that the Little People fit in, and it actually swings. Very cute. There is also a taxi station, but it doesn't have any moving parts; it's just a platform with a pay phone and a curb area. You also get three Little People (the conductor and two passengers), some luggage, a box of fruit, and a potted plant. All of these fit in the train cars or sit as scenery in the different areas, but do not attach anywhere... great for imaginative play.

Over all, we are very pleased with the train set. It was worth the money, and I think it has a long "life expectancy", play-wise. And, like most other Fisher-Price toys, it's very well constructed and can take the abuse that a typical baby dishes out.
