While Santa may be on his way, there might still be a few more items you need to snag before Christmas. We can’t let Santa have ALL the fun now can we. We have a few products we’d like to highlight for you today.   Barbie® Dreamhouse™ Playset Kids can host the ultimate pool party with the Barbie® Dreamhouse™! This deluxe doll house has the tallest slide in the Barbie® Dreamhouse™ series to date, with a three-story spiral design for…

Tis the season as we all know. My house began decorating right after Halloweens, xmas music on a loop while I work. But as always we here at GamesReviews.com want to try and help make your holiday shopping just a little easier. Few toy products have had the staying power of Lego, and if you are anything like me, I am always looking for the next great build to add to my collection (currently working on my christmas village). But…

Of all the 2023 Star Wars: Shatterpoint releases, my father-in-law was looking forward to Cad Bane and the Fistfull of Credits Squad Pack. Cad Bane is one of his favourite Star Wars characters, so to have him available in Star Wars: Shatterpoint was a really big deal. But how does this character stack up when finally on the table? How is the secondary character, and the supports? Let’s take a look! Cad Bane The big thing with Cad Bane is…

Growing up, my family never did advent calendars so the thought of getting a little gift each day leading to Christmas day was foreign to me. I think perhaps over the past 30 years, more and more people have begun getting into the holiday spirit with an advent calendar. They range from calendars that have chocolates or candies, to calendars with books, calendars with toys, and yes even calendars with LEGO. In this article we will look at three different…

We’ve enjoyed reviewing a number of Playmobil sets over the past few years, and we hope to continue doing so for the foreseeable future. It’s such a great time opening up the boxes, getting the sets built, and  getting it all setup with our other sets. When Playmobil reached out with the chance to review the Playmobil 1-2-3 sets, some featuring our favourite Disney characters, I jumped at the chance. Reviewing these sets is not about where my kids are…

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem has been my favorite movie this year, even one of the few I went out to the theater to go see. TMNT had peaked in popularity prior in the late 80’s to early 90’s, I was the prime age demographic for who they wanted in a consumer. I had all of the figures, a massive collection, enjoyed the movies, all the games (even the tough as nails NES one) and yes, I even had…

I’ll be honest – despite how much my kids love each and every LEGO Super Mario set that comes into the house – whether for review or purchase – I’ve begun to wonder what would be next from LEGO and Nintendo. The sets are always fantastic, as are the figures they are creating. But after a while, you wonder when they branch out from the Mushroom Kingdom thing and into something else. With the launch of LEGO Super Mario &…

Water guns are something my kids really enjoy, and we’ve purchased more than a few over the past few years. We’ve had expensive water guns, and dollar store water guns. We’ve had complicated guns and really simple guns. We’ve never had an automatic gun that runs off an internal battery, however, at least not until the automatic water guns from Spyra arrived. Let’s take a look at what these things can do! The guns have quite a bit of weight…

My youngest child is in love with Playmobil, and over the past year or so he’s seemed to move away from fantasy sets and into more realistic sets, primarily in the City, Pony, and Country themes. Last week, we built both the City Action Fire Truck and the City Action Ambulance, and both provided a fantastic experience. Let’s take a look at each, and see why these are magnificent additions to your Playmobil collection. City Action Fire Truck Included: 2…

We all remember Polly Pocket right? My little sister had them growing up, I remember them being EVERYWHERE. Then decades later they reinvented Polly Pocket and my littles ones loved it. As they grew older Polly Pocket went away, and they discovered FRIENDS…..now years later…..they have a crossover? This was not on my BINGO card for this year. Ahead of Warner Bros. Discovery’s FRIENDS Fan Week, a week-long celebration leading up to International Friendship Day on Sunday, July 30, we’re…
