 This Thing Is So Cool!!!! |
| Review Date: November 25, 2009 |
| Reviewer: C. Kruschke, Tucson, AZ United States |
My son bought this with his allowance money and it is the absolute coolest thing I have ever seen! You can basically take apart the whole gun into 7-8 pieces and everything, except the shoulder stock (& this funny handle thing that we never use), makes a fun clicking noise when you put it together. In addition, the ammo clip and sniper sight can be put on about 5 different places making even more differnet gun configurations. Each of the gun barrel configurations makes a different firing noise (one sounds like the AT-AT's main laser blast or a similar large laser cannon round and others are typical Star Wars gun sounds - all very different from eachother) and you can set the gun for single-shot action (plus huge explosion) with the clip taken off or rapid fire mode (plus huge explosion after 5-10 shots) with the clip in place. Also you run out of ammo after awhile sending it in to single-shot mode until you "replace" the clip (remove and put back on). I rated it as a 1-Star on educational because, you know, it's just a gun... I guess it educates you on Star Wars stuff.
My 8-yr old son has been wanting a Star Wars gun for ages and this one is so much better than the typical Stormtrooper/Clone Trooper rifle or Han Solo pistol. Theoretically you could buy 2 guns and start piecing everything together to some monster weapon, but my son & I haven't geeked out that far - yet... If they'd had this when Star Wars Ep4 came out 30 yrs ago, Kenner would have made a killing!!! This has to be my favorite Star Wars toy that I've ever come across and that's saying something. And the price is REALLY reasonable - the best of both worlds! |
5 year old nephew - LOVED this blaster!

| Reviewer: Joanna Lara, |
| read the review above and thought maybe this would be a good gift for my nephew's birthday who is obsessed with all things STAR WARS, and loves to build things, etc. He LOVES this toy. He played with it above all other toys on his birthday morning, and told me how "COOL" it was. A good bet for sure! |
A Blaster Worth Having
|
| Review Date: June 6, 2010 |
| Reviewer: D. Plantamura, USA |
| Similar to the "Ultimate Lightsaber" kit that Hasbro released in recent years, this "Ultimate Blaster" kit is something that I wish I had when I was younger---and something that my son is calling his "favorite birthday present." While not completely universal, parts can be removed and swapped around to some degree to create a number of different weapons---and each configuration has a unique blaster sound effect in addition to cool "lock and load" sound effects as you assemble your custom weapon. Surprisingly, the pieces stay together well enough so as not to fall apart during play thanks to a nice "insert and twist" locking system and some discrete sliding lock switches. There are also nice sequential LED lights on the barrel section to simulate blaster fire and energy-charging. It's not completely accurate as far as a "movie replica" but the unique play value makes this a very cool toy for the average kid. My only complaint (not Hasbro's fault since I believe there are regulations on toy guns) is that it's not molded in black like a real blaster---I've got some spraypainting to do for my son! |
Clone Wars Blaster ... hours of fun

| Reviewer: Jennie Bergin, |
| My son got this from Santa .. it was a dream come true. It's very durable and not too noisy. It is easily packed in sections for travelling. A "cool" toy... the envy of all star wars fans. |
Great Fun

Monty Rex moves his tail, arms, and head as he sniffs, roars, purrs, and even walks like a real dinosaur. The interactive, robotic T-Rex roars back when you roar at him, and he dances along to three built-in songs. You can even feed Monty Rex, and he’ll chomp his food and burp when he’s done!

Your child will be thrilled with Playskool Kota and Pals Monty T-Rex--especially when he roars at the friendly dinosaur and gets a louder roar in return. An interactive, animated dinosaur, Monty T-Rex stomps, roars, sniffs and sneezes, plays music, and even burps after being fed a big meal. Designed for ages three and up, this fun-loving dinosaur is ideal for both younger and older children since it is so versatile in its interactive, role-playing abilities.
Life-like, With Built-in Touch and Sound Sensors
Monty T-Rex moves and communicates through his six built-in touch and sound sensors that are located on his face, back, and tail. Monty can walk and stomp; move his head, tail, and arms. He even dances along to any of his three built-in "dino rockin'" songs. To get Monty going, you merely have to touch his back, and if you forget to turn him off, he will go into sleep mode after 60-90 seconds.
Monty T-Rex is made of cloth and durable plastic, but as a fair warning he should always be used on a flat surface since he could potentially walk or stomp his way off a table and hurt himself.
Interactive Dinosaur That Looks and Sounds Real
This animated T-Rex is great for all ages because your child can fit Monty's interactions to their own curiosities and developmental level. He does such a large variety of sounds and actions, it's easy to understand why children could be entertained for long periods of time.
Monty can also help your child learn a bit more about their new prehistoric friend, thanks to the discovery sheet that is included in the box. The discovery sheet offers a a few interesting facts about Monty, opening the doors to possible future research into dinosaurs.
What's in the Box
Monty T-Rex, four "C" batteries, and a discovery sheet.

Product Description |

The Fisher Price Dragon World Fortress will transport your child to a fantasy realm of magic, knights, and dragons. Designed for ages 3 and up, this play set features flashing lights, sound effects, and accessories that can provide hours of imaginative role-playing. Standout features include a moving guard dragon, a cannon that shoots projectiles, and a secret lever that will make the castle "come to life."
A Medieval Adventure
At approximately two feet in height, Dragon World Fortress is filled with enough interactive features to keep active imaginations occupied. The play set comes with two knight figures, each with their own detachable sword, shield and armor. With these figures your child can pivot "activation points" on the play set, which can reveal hidden staircases and open the front gate.
Knights who dare to enter the Dragon World Fortress face many dangers. Pulling a lever on the back of the castle will cause the green guard dragon to lunge forward and attack intruders. The lever also triggers thunder sound effects and causes the entire castle to light up. There is also a cannon that fires plastic projectiles, and a rolling boulder that can be used to defend the staircases.
The fortress is constructed in solid, sturdy plastic. Parents, be aware that it is fairly easy to topple over due to its vertical design. However, this problem is remedied by folding out the hidden set of stairs underneath the castle, giving it the stability needed for rougher play.
Encourages Imagination
Dragon World Fortress channels a spirit of medieval adventure. It is full of movable objects and sounds, but still leaves plenty of room for constructive, imaginative play. The play set provides children with the tools needed for an immersive, imaginative experience.
What's in the Box
Fortress, two knight figures, two flags, two boulders, one bed, and one cannon with projectile.

Product Details |
