Lego 7315 Life on Mars Series - Solar Explorer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)One of the most fun sets I've had the pleasure of building. The modularity of the ship enhances its playability. Simply remove a section (or drop it off on the planet!) and you've got a whole new ship. The rover is very cute, and the design is very reminicent of the Space Shuttle. One of LEGO's most fun models.

LEGO Toy Story Lotso's Dump Truck (7789) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is Lotso's dump truck from Toy Story 3. It's Lego, so it all has to be assembled. My son is 7 and still needs a lot of help putting these kinds of toys together, so depending on the child, a parent may have to assist with the assembly.
Once assembled, I was surprised the dump truck was so small. It's about 5 inches in length, but it's actually a good size for play, and it rolls around smoothly on its wheels. Lotso fits in the back, and Chunk rides on the side. There's also a driver and Stretch. It doesn't seem to fall apart easily, so I'd say it was fairly sturdy.
Overall, my son has enjoyed it, but, of course, now he wants the Lego trash compactor set to go with it!

LEGO Prince of Persia Fight for the Dagger (7571) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)LEGO is an awesome toy overall. Almost everything is excellent, so I list here just the bad points (but this toy is still definitely a buy!):
1. The camel looks a bit "cheap".
2. Princess Tamina's hairpiece is hard to put on straight while the cape is also on.
3. The door trap isn't 100% level.

LEGO? Kingdoms King's Castle 7946 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 11 year-old LEGO fan son started working on this the moment he came home from school yesterday. He is just now done with the set.
His friend Jaxon came over today and they both worked on it and had a blast.
The consensus is, "This is such a great set. It has really awesome mini figs."
And it does. It comes with eight, very detailed (LEGO style) figures. There are catapults and lots of other really cool working parts. There's even a rat for the dungeons.
Visit our pictures in customer images to see some of the details in this set.
"It is so worth the money. It has a drawbridge that goes up and down and a gate too. The white horse can be a unicorn with the right armor. You can launch stuff from the towers. And you can have epic battles with the mini figs. The dragon knight is just plain awesome."
"This castle set is by far the best."
It has been a big hit for two LEGO fans that usually like to create their own stuff from large piles of mismatched LEGOS. With 933 pieces and just under $100, it makes each piece just over 10 cents. If you've ever priced out LEGO pick-a-brick pieces, you know that this is a good price.
The final message from them is, "Just buy it -- period."

Collect and Build Robo Battlers Series - Slasher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My son got this for his 8th birthday and was excited about it. The age grade says 7+ and this seems generous as the sparse directions and finicky assembly would drive 10 year old batty. First, the instructions. Each step is illustrated in a 3/4 drawing with a bare minimum of clues as to how to build it. The view is always the same, never a nice detailed shot rotated to best illustrate the step -which is critical with the nature of the K'nex pieces and their unique attachments.
My son got frustrated at Step 1 and after I asked him to try again, I sat down and worked on the kit with him. I don't mind building the kits together, in fact I like it a lot, the issue I have is that I'm guessing the chances of him building anything else with the kit, like he would with a Lego kit, is small. Speaking of small, these pieces are smaller than the other K'nex set he has (I think it was a Happy meal toy).
The saving grace for the set is that it has a few parts that can accommodate Lego pieces, this combined with the Lego block I super glued to the battery housing should extend the life of the toy, keeping it out of the bottom of the toy box for now. Right now the robot is walking past with 8 Lego Star Wars Mini Figs attached to it :)

Giant Foam Block Set II (32 pcs.) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A foam block is just a foam block, no matter how it is marketed. With my first child, I have purchased similar blocks for my son for substantially lower prices. Because I am familiar with this kind of toy and its real value, I would never pay over a dollar a piece for a block of this type. And this product offer is asking you to pay over three dollars for each of these small blocks!
Foam blocks are easy to find at most toy stores and even from other online vendors. I like foam blocks, I gave them to my son when he was a baby and I plan to buy some new ones for my second son due soon. I don't dispute the value of foam blocks for a child's playtime, I dispute the ridiculous price asked for this toy (and other toys I have seen offered here as well).
While the convenience of online shopping is a great boon to busy parents, this simply crosses the line into the arena of taking advantage of parents' desires to do what is best for their kids. Spending (this much) for cheap blocks of the type that you can get for less elsewhere is not smart and does not do anything for your child that you are probably are already doing. Sure, your baby will like these blocks, but your baby will be just as pleased with blocks that are fairly priced. The money you save can be spent on other things your family needs. I advise all parents to pass this one by and caution them to be sure to look at all the products and prices offered here more closely.

LEGO TECHNIC Mini Bulldozer 8259 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I think this is one of the best little sets to come out in 2009. The A model is a bulldozer and the B model is an excavator. Both are nifty little designs; they have great playability and are very sturdy. A word of warning: this is a very small set (see my photo). However, if you can find it at MSRP, it is currently one of the lowest priced Lego vehicles (as per Amazon policy I cannot quote MSRP here). Do your research as this is supposed to be less expensive than the Lego Front-End Loader (#7630) and the same price as the Lego Tractor (#8260).

LEGO City Garage (7642) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased the Lego City Garage for my nephew's birthday. I had as much fun as him in putting it together which did not take that long. Overall, I felt that it was well worth the purchase; however, I wish that it had more to it than just a little office, main garage floor, and a "tight" garage for the tow truck. It seemed a little sparse not having more items to interact with in the main garage. Also, I would have preferred the whole thing to be a bit bigger for the price I paid.
All this being said, I was impressed that we had to build the majority of the buildings from the familiar small Lego pieces instead of pre-fabricated walls (although, there are some of these used). It was also nice to have 3 vehicles to interact with this item.
Putting this item together brought back fun memories of my Lego city when I was young and made me want to invest in additional pieces for my nephew (mainly so that I can play with them too!).

Best-Lock 330pc Police Station Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Hours of fun. I have to limit my sons' time playing with this toy.
I had some reservations about buying this Brand after reading reviews that the blocks do not lock very well. It turned out I had to spend some time showing the kids how to get the "blocks to lock". These require some force to get them to stay together. While I agree that these are most definitely NOT the best locking blocks on the market, they do the job and for the price its great value for money.
AND, the educational value remains; this toy encourages the child to exercise his imagination,while helping to develop coordination and motor skills.
I think it is good value for the money. I have since bought two more sets and now have over 1000 blocks.

NEO Shifters Duplicon Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for my 8 year old son last year for Christmas. I expected it to be just like the Bionicles we have but it is far insuperior. The quality of the plastic is bad, the small "man" that is supposed to sit in the stomach area and roll up into a ball kept falling apart and the head of the main figure did not fit properly.
I have put enough of the Bionicles together that I can basically do it in my sleep at this point. This one figure was very hard to put together, very frustrating and totally not up to the Bionicles my son owns. I will never buy another NEO Shifter!
