In The Night Garden - Ninky Nonk Vehicle

a hit with my son, 2008-09-30
i tend to fully agree with all the reviews so far about how easily it falls apart, but my son who was only one and a half at the time, soon learnt how to reconnect the carriages himself, and enjoyed doing so.

this toy has been covered in squished banana at breakfast time, immersed in countless bubble baths, rolled up and down the slide in the garden - and even found itself thrown in the fish pond once - but still it is intact and very much loved by my little boy. yes hasbro could have tried harder to be a little more imaginable with the design - or at least reduced the rrp to a more value-for-money amount, but in our house, this toy is definately a hit and i for one am glad i bought it.

Top toy for a 5 year old, 2008-06-16
Fantastic. Has kept my 5 year old playing with it for a week. Don't be fooled by the other alien viewer that one is rubbish.

Roary the Racing Car - Remote Control Roary

Light 'em up, Roary!!!, 2008-02-28
My son and I have had great fun with this toy over the past couple of months, and still do -- best Christmas present I ever bought!

It is speedy, tough, and faithful to the TV character. Admittedly traction is better on carpet than laminate, but I found it very easy to control, and had no problems with the turning circle. No, it won't turn on a dime, so you do have to practice some 3-point turns, but well, there's your educational element: spacial awareness, hand/eye co-ordination, etc. - good practice for when the kids are 17!

If responsiveness, or range of remote IR signal decreases, just replace the batteries in the car (not necessarily the remote), and all should be well again. I've also found that sunlight can interfere with the remote IR signal when the car travels into direct sunlight at a distance - just move closer to it.

All in all, a superb toy. If I had had one as a kid, I would have been well chuffed. I just wish they would bring out another remote control character, e.g. Maxi, so you could have races!

Doctor Who - 5" Flight Control Tardis (Electronic)

"It's called a TARDIS.", 2007-08-04
At last, a version of the iconic TARDIS to scale with the current releases of the 5 inch figures.
An absolute must have for any collector or kid to play with, this great reproduction of The Doctor's ship is packed with features that will delight young and old alike.
Both doors on the front open and there is even the telephone inside the left door. They can be locked open and reveal the TARDIS interior. There's just enough room inside to fit figures of The Doctor and his Companion.
The best feature of this TARDIS though are the lights and sound effects built in. The Police Public Call Box signs on each side all light up and the glowing lantern on the top flashes appropriately, depending on what the TARDIS is doing at the time.
There are 8 sound effects in total.
When you open the doors the interior lights up and you get the sound of the TARDIS humming away.
There is a pressure lever in the base that registers if it's landed or flying and will make appropriate sounds when necessary. There's slow take off, take off and emergency launch, landing and emergency landing.
There's a spin button on the base and by placing your finger on it and spinning the TARDIS from the light on top it makes the flight sound which is rather cool.
The final sound is a bit tricky to coax out of the toy. If you shake it once (and only once!) in flight you get a flight disruption noise, but it's quite difficult to get the sensor inside to register this one.
All in all, a great fun toy for kids and adults and no Doctor Who collection would be complete without this toy.

In The Night Garden - Iggle Piggle Dancing Plush

Very durable, 2008-01-12
My 20 month old daughter loves this toy. She loves pressing the button to make him talk and putting his blanket in his hand when he asks her to. I was a bit frightened that she was too rough with it as she hugs him and bends his arms back. So far he's stood up to all the abuse and still hugs his blanket despite the fact that she trys to break his arm! I think its very well made and she wouldn't be without him.

Secret Pillow, 2008-10-23
Hannah Montana 'My Secret Pillow' with MP3 Speaker

Great product, the writing stays on pages until washed. It probably smudged if the pages were not dry as other customer commented on. Daughter has just turned 6yrs and loves trying to write her own stories and slots in her own pictures. Thumbs up.

Gogo Crazy Bones Evolution Packet

• Gogo Crazy Bones
• Great deal on 5 Evolution Packets
• SERIES 2

Go Gos Still Going..., 2008-11-17
...in Series 2 'Evolutions' - so named because the original 80 Go Gos have kept their basic shape but changed colour and design in every conceivable way in the second wave or their quest for world domination. Like the first series for my five-year-old son these are the next big thing. A packet of three Go Gos with stickers costs only one pound so they fall very nicely into the pocket money bracket. The figures themselves are small, colourful, durable and bursting with individuality and personality. Eighty to collect (plus different colour combinations) will keep him going.

Get the new album as well (if you haven't already) - it is a must-have. Again, it costs only one pound and has comic strips this time and fun statistics about how much the new Go Gos have evolved. It also has 80 new names for them all! Why the five stars for educational value? Well, my son looks at this album all the time and can now easily recognise the numbers from 1-80. He also happily copies out the characters' names so improving his writing skills.

Go Gos are still great - the only downside is they get everywhere in our house. From personal experience it's not nice to tread on one with bare feet!!
