Super Mario Movie Toys Review – 5” Figures & 7” Bowser

The toys that are being released alongside the Super Mario Bros. Movie are insane, and fans cannot get enough. For a long time, collecting the figures from Jakks was for two specific groups of people - the massive number of kids who wanted to play with the toys, and the few adults looking to collect. There was, and may be still is, a massive group of people who are not actively purchasing Super Mario toys - the gamers. And after the hype around these releases, I think Jakk’s Pacific has finally cracked the code.

Wiltopia – Anteater Care (721012) Review

If you saw our review before the holidays of the Wiltopia Animal Care Centre, you will remember that we were very excited about this line of Playmobil products. I have always loved animals, and animal toys are almost just as good as the real thing. For a long time now, I've wanted Playmobil to do a Zoo line of toys, with enclosures and everything. Who doesn't want to build a zoo? The Wiltopia sets, however, are the next best thing, and each comes with a few little animals, so our home collection is slowly growing. Let's take a look at the Anteater Care set!

Hot Wheels Finger Boards a Nostalgic Journey

When you hear the word “Hot Wheels” you probably instantly think about diecast cars. And no one would blame you for having that thought. But what if I told you that Hot Wheels is also making…finger skateboards? Enter the Hot Wheels Skate Fingerboards, a bit larger than you remember, and so very cool. My kids have been playing with them for a few weeks now, so let’s see how they hold up. Logan is really getting into skateboarding so when…

Going Big with Wiltopia – Animal Care Station

We have had the pleasure to look at a number of Playmobil sets over the past two years, but none have come close to the magnitude of the Wiltopia Animal Care Station. With over 350 pieces, getting this set together took a lot of time - in fact, Playmobil even warns parents that assembling the set could take up to 90 minutes! But is all the effort worth it? Is there enough to do in the Animal Care Station to warrant the high price and long build time? Let's take a look!

Dino Rise Saichania: Invasion of The Robot Playmobil Review

More Playmobil, more great fun! This time my kids and I stepped outside the world of reality - from looking at the Fire Rescue ship and Mini Cooper - and entered the world of dinosaurs! We've looked at Dino Rise in the past, but not on this scale. The Saichania: Invasion of the Robot set is pretty big, and includes all you need for at least two people to play for hours. Let's take a look!

Playmobil City Action Fire Rescue and Personal Watercraft (70140) Review

I hope you are not getting tired of seeing Playmobil on the website, because we have a lot more coming! This time, we are taking a look at the City Action Fire Rescue and Personal Watercraft (70140) that includes two boats, 4 figures, and tons of little gadgets to keep you fans buys for hours. While this set doesn't have the same "display" qualities as the Mini Cooper we recently reviewed, it has its own pros that make it one of the better sets available this holiday season!

Playmobil Mini Cooper Review

Although it might only be 41 total pieces, the Mini Cooper from Playmobil (Set 70921) is one fantastic toy. If there is one thing I can say about Playmobil that is always true, it is that their licensed vehicles are top notch and unrivaled in this space. In the past, we have reviewed the Volkswagon Bug and Bus, and many other vehicles. They are always fantastic. With a few characters included, this is one of the better, shareable Playmobil experiences.

71004 Large Tractor Playmobil Review

Throughout the renovations happening in my house, the one constant for my 3 year old son Lincoln has been the opportunity to review Playmobil sets! Today, we are taking a look at the Large Tractor set, number 71004. The large tractor is, well, large! It comes with two bails of hay, a number of tractor attachments, and a character to play with. We have other tractors that we purchased on our own a few years ago, so how does this one hold up against those? Let's take a look!

Playmobil Dino Rise Triceratops: Battle for The Legendary Stones Review

I’m fairly positive there is a lengthy backstory to the Dino Rise Playmobil series, but I’d be lying to you if I told you I knew what it was. Because I don’t. However, with a name like, “Battle for the Legendary Stones,” you know it’s going to be something good. While we had no context for what this storyline might be, we did what we do best when we have a lot of Playmobil at our disposal! We improvise and…
