Lego 8070 Technic Super Car Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)About the Set itself:
Not since the Ferrari Enzo 8653 and Ferrari Fiorano 8145 has there been a set as detailed and sophisticated as this, the Supercar 8070. Unlike the previous two, the Supercar is branded as a Technic, not a Ferrari, and this one is motorized. The motor does not move the car, instead it moves the front hood, right and left doors (independently), and extends and retracts the rear spoiler. All this is done with a pretty neat shift knob in the passenger compartment. If you missed your chance to get the previous sets, the Supercar not only continues, but improves on the previous sets.
About the Amazon listing:
Just to reaffirm the previous reviews, buying the Supercar is a rip off from Amazon, even if you consider all of the benefits of buying from Amazon. If you buy from Lego.com, you will have to pay for shipping and taxes. Now, Lego occasionally have free shipping promotions on big orders around 75 to 100 dollar purchases, so you only have to pay for taxes during those periods. As for Amazon, you can't buy directly from Amazon; this is where the problem comes in. If you want free shipping, you have to buy from "Fulfilled by Amazon" merchants, who sell the sets around 150 dollars, 30 dollars more than the MSRP, and if you're unlucky, taxes on top of that. If you buy from the cheapest merchant, you will have to pay for taxes and shipping, which will hover around the 150 dollar mark anyways. So the best solution would be to be patient and wait for Lego to have one of their free shipping promotions to get this set.

Schleich Big Red Barn with SUV/4x4 Vehicle with Driver and Horse Trailer Bundle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Wow, I see I am not the only one that didn't get the SUV & trailer. How does this continue to happen? I am very disappointed as I use Amazon all the time!
How inconvienent to have to return the item, esp. since it was a gift for my grandson's Christmas. I would have thought Amazon could've taken the time to find a better solution.

1:64 John Deere 9870STS Combine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This combine is a hefty die-cast toy that comes with a plastic "corn head" and a "flex head". (Am I farmer? No, I'm suburban born and bred, but we've moved to a small town where we've made friends with a farmer!) It has a plastic ladder to the cabin and a plastic "unloading auger" (tube) that swings out and extends (by straightening on a joint). The stickers and painted details add to the realism.
The notable flaw is the way that the heads attach to the vehicle. The plastic heads have pinchers that flex to grab onto two "pips" on the vehicle. Your child might have difficulty getting the heads onto the vehicle. They attach firmly, but are easily removed as well. I worry that, over time, the plastic pinchers will loosen. So far, it hasn't happened.
The flex head doesn't rotate when you "drive" the vehicle, either. Compare this to the Lego City Set #7636 Combine Harvester: the flex head rolls on the ground (carpet?) when you push the toy, so it looks like the combine is really working. On this combine, the rotating blades are held up by two wheels --- more realistic, yes, but less "functional" (for play). My son doesn't mind, it seems.
I like the quality of this toy, overall. It's fun... if your child is into it.

Ultimate Marvel Die Cast 1:64 Spider-Man Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 Series 1 #1 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the perfect example of why these Maisto produced cars are so popular (the current offerings from MGA are just disappointing in comparison). This car is beautiful and detailed with awesome Spider-man decals on it and it comes mint on a card with Spidey's face on it! Excelsior!

Neat-Oh LEGO ZipBin Head Toy Tote & Playmat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My son loves legos. Thought that this cute tote & playmat was a great idea for storage of his small lego collection. I will be lucky if they all fit. Cute idea but I wish I would have known how small it really was before I bought it. As long as he doesn't get anymore legos we might be ok. :)

Animal Planet Sea Life Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ok. So we didn't look at the fine print on the box which never proclaimed it to be a bath toy. I think wheels on the boat should have given it away. But the boat sinks and all of the sea animals float--go figure that one out. Otherwise my kids enjoy playing with it--in the tub--even though the boat makes no pretense at floating, and the only way the sea animals make it to the bottom is if they fill up with mucky tub water--a quality which won't make this toy last in our house very long.

Mega Bloks Mickey's Garage Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for a 5 year old who loves the Mickey Mouse Club. He enjoys playing with it and its great for fine motor skills and creative play. I do wish there weren't so many small parts that are so easily lost or choked on. Not all kids stop chewing on toys at age 3. A great improvement would be if Mickey and the others didn't come apart into 2 pieces. I'm sure it won't be long before we loose half of Mickey. Other than that, I think its a great toy and I will buy more in the series.

Lego Bionicle Dart Shooter Gun Toa Mahri Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this nerf gun for a while now. I have two of them,and I used them in a nerf gun war. They are just what I was looking for! They have a pretty above average range. For the most part, this gun is very accurate. The nerf darts hardly drop. This is completely better than the Maverick because the Maverick holds less darts, shoots shorter, and takes longer to reload(due to popping out the barrel). Cocking the gun back isn't too hard, it's only slightly harder to cock it back compared to all of the other nerf guns, but it makes up for it by being a very powerful nerf gun.

Iron Man Movie Toy Series 1 Action Figure Iron Man Mark 03 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Marvel Legends series have the best designed toys and articulatio, but the movie based marvel toys are decent, the legs and and arms move well but do not have as much freedom as you'd like, the shoulder pads on this toy fall off with the lightest touch, that said the toy is very durable, i didn't throw it but i dropped it down the stairs and paint is still on the arms and legs unaffected. overall a toy is a toy it's fun.

BrickArms Exclusive 2 to 4 Inch Scale Figure Style LOOSE Weapon Bazooka Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just received this plus a few other lots of BrickArms, and I love them. As an avid LEGO builder/collector, these are a great addition to my collection. The handle fits in a standard lego characters' hand every bit as well as a lego-made gun does. These look better in person than they do in the photograph. I will definitely be purchasing many more BrickArms for my "arsenal."
If you are a collector of LEGOs, and/or a gun collector, this is a must have. Just be sure to by enough to arm all your lego men!

Star Wars Science - Optical Command Unit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My Son received this toy as a birthday present and it has been a hit! I disagree with some of the criticisms that have been posted.
-The binoculars do require assembly, but it was easily done and allowed for great father-son time. My son got the pieces ready while dad assembled. They were able to assemble it all within 10-15 minutes.
The Pen-Light works really well, and you have to use the magnifying piece to get the pictures to view. If you use the magnifying piece you can clearly make out the projection slides from a good distance. Without the magnifying piece, it's just a blur, but I don't think that's how you're suppose to use it.
It's probably not terribly educational, but it's functional enough for my 5 year old. He uses it to birdwatch in our garden and people watching from the car. Good fun for him.Taking a little time to familiarize yourself with the toy and how it really works makes this toy well worth it.

Spy Net: Secret Mission Video Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Let me say this is one amazing product. I at first thought it was just some high tech watch that perhaps did a few things extra but was I ever wrong. This watch is amazing.
Here are some of the features I found right off:
It takes photos, both in real time or you can use the time elapse feature
It has a lie detector built in, we used this feature right away and it was really fun
It is a video camera and you can take video or record voice without anyone knowing it
It has a full screen, easy to see and easy to operate
It tells time in many different time zones
It can be connected to your computer by USB and you can download missions
It has a built in voice changer that is a lot of fun to use
It also has several add on features that can be purchased separately that we plan to look into in the future
And that my friend is just the beginning of this wonderful watch.
My granddaughter and I had a blast with it for several hours. We recorded everyone, took pictures, videoed, it was great fun. We than decided we wanted to download a mission. Understand, you do not have to download missions or interact with the website to enjoy this product. It's totally up to you . If you decide to download missions it will probably require adult help and/ or someone familiar with computers. I am well versed with computers and I still had to call customer service for a couple of quick solutions. I was delighted when a real person answered the phone(with no waiting)! She was very courteous and knowledgeable. Within a few minutes we were back on track and completing our first mission. The missions are clear good quality videos with easy to follow instructions.
I have not had it long enough to tell you how durable it is, however it appears to be very well made.
I am very impressed with this product, it is definitely top-notch in fun and entertainment. My 11 year old granddaughter used the product with ease and loves it. Of course understand Grandma's can have just as much fun with it as well, and I am living proof of that. Amazing product, well worth your money. Enjoy!
