I wasn’t sure what to expect when we began opening up Mrs. Castillo’s Turtle Van from the LEGO Dreamzzz. I’ve seen LEGO themes crash and burn before, but for some reason despite the wackiness of Dreamzzz, my kids were super enthused by the entire theme. So, to do my homework, as we opened up the Turtle Van, we put on a few episodes of the show on Netflix, and my kids were hooked. LEGO is a huge hit in our…

A few years ago, Playmobil ran a line of futuristic dinosaur themed playsets called Dino Rise, and while my son was really into dinosaurs, I think all the guns, lasers, cannons, and more threw him off a bit and the set wasn’t as popular as I would have thought.

If you read my article on why I think Wiltopia is the best Playmobil lineup  you know that we felt the sets that included animals – excluding cats, dogs, horses – were the best Playmobil had to offer. The animals are super…

Playmobil has been around for a very long time, and over the past 2 or 3 years, we’ve been privileged to work with Playmobil and review a ton of their products. I need to say off the top that we believe that Playmobil is one of the top 3 or 4 toys of all time, and definitely in the top 3 of toys we have reviewed since we started doing Toy Reviews back in 2018. Even though we have liked…

The Elephant at the Watering Hole set is really impressive both in water play features, and the number of animals you get!

Playmobil Canada is celebrating 50 years, and what better way to celebrate than collaborating with the worlds most recognizable fast food chain to release toys in happy meals.

Wiltopia has quickly become my son Lincoln’s favourite Playmobil theme, so when we stopped for after soccer ice cream at our local McDonald’s, we were thrilled to see these available! At a cost of $2.00 per toy, you can walk into you…
