LEGO Army Men... At Last!
Most of us LEGO fans have always dreamed of creating an army of little green men, and after years of wishful pondering, it's finally possible!
As depicted in the Amazon stock photo, this set comes with 4 minifgs (3 soldiers and 1 medic). The medic is identical in every way to the others with the exception of a cross printed on his helmet.
Accessories consist of: 2 radios, 2 binoculars, 2 rifles, 1 backpack, 1 briefcase (opens), 1 mine detector, 4 base plates, and 1 stretcher.
The vehicle itself is well built and compact, and as such, can withstand much play without disassembling -- perfect for your young LEGO enthusiasts!

Ten Hut!
I had originally overlooked the Lego Toy Story Army Men on Patrol set, thinking the army men wouldn't be that interesting to my son (even though he loves Toy Story and Lego). His grandmother bought him the set though, and I must say I'm surprised at how much he is enjoying it. The set comes with a jeep and four soldiers with various accessories.

Complexity: This is a really basic set, so it took little time to assemble. There are enough tiny parts to frustrate younger builders like my son, but he had fun assembling the army men.

Playability: This is just a fun set all around. With the variety of army men - soldiers, medic, mine sweeper - and the accessories you can have all sorts of adventures. And since the soldiers' feet aren't stuck to the bases you can substitute a few yellow minifigure heads and incorporate the set into the Lego City theme.

The Lego Toy Story Army Men on Patrol set was a pleasant surprise. It works in the Toy Story context, and is a lot of fun as a stand-alone set.

Finally Lego gives us the military!
Lego has traditionally been against the idea of creating "military"-style sets. Yes, they have always offered planes/helicopters/boats---but all in CIVILIAN style. Recently, the Indiana Jones series of sets offered some pseudo-military planes and vehicles and now FINALLY some Army Men!

My son immediately spent his hard-earned allowance to purchase 2 of these sets to start building his Lego army. Hopefully Lego will expand this series of sets soon!

The Settlers of Catan

Product Description

One of the most successful games of all time, Settlers of Catan is a trading and building game set in the mythical world of Catan. Players roll dice to determine which resources are generated each round and then must strategically trade those resources with other players to get what they need to build their settlements, cities, and roads. With multiple ways to gain victory points and a board that changes in every play, Settlers of Catan is a game that can be played hundreds of different ways. The base of a hugely successful franchise, with multiple engaging expansions, Settlers is the core game of many collections, and is a wonderful way to spend time with family and friends. For 3 to 4 players.

Customer Reviews

Nice updates
The primary, and best, addition in this 4th edition of Settlers is a very nice interlocking border which is placed around the game tiles. This replaces the individual hex tiles of previous editions. No longer will your tiles/pieces scatter/split apart when someone accidentally bumps the playing surface! One side of the border has the ports "built in" but you still get a bit of randomness when assembling the pieces. The flip side of the border is blank "sea" on which you can put the included port tokens for a truly random placement.

The updated graphics are nice and colorful but take a bit of getting use to if you regularly play with an older edition.

The box has a vacu-formed type insert designed to hold all the pieces and keep everything neat.

All-in-all a nice upgrade to the 3rd edition.

It's a simple sounding premise: You gather resources in order to build roads and settlements to earn points.

However, there is a wonderful randomness which lends complexity to the game as the layout of the game board tiles differs with each play right down to the number on the dice needed to harvest a resource from a given tile. This makes *every* game unique. Strategy comes into play as you must determine the best location for your settlements and roads to get maximum value/points.

If you've never played Settlers, find someone who has a copy and give it a try. If no one you know owns a copy, go to your local comic shop. Odds are someone there will have a copy readily available and delight in teaching the game to a new player! It's easy to learn, difficult to master, and quick to play with a typical game lasting only an hour or less.

This is one of the truly classic games and belongs on the shelf of anyone who enjoys board gaming.

Fantastic family/strategy game in a new edition with more useful accessories
Settlers of Catan is an absolutely fantastic family strategy game. I won't belabor my discussion of the game, except to say that my wife (only a 'casual boardgamer', not as hardcore like me) and two boys (ages 8 and 10) have been playing it for over a year, many dozens of times, with continued enjoyment. I have successfully hooked other gamers in my family (brother in law, father) on it as well, so that it shares equal time with Monopoly in our family game marathons over the holidays.

The big point to take away about this new edition of the game is that, without changing any rules, the edition includes some very handy extra pieces, esp. an interlocking set of holders to fit the tiles into, which helps prevent incidental dislocations of the pieces on the board (so common with the older edition). For those of you who have the Seafarers of Catan extension, the holding tiles are much those included in that extension (except shaped to fit the Settlers hex board).

Stick with the 3rd Addition
We are avid players of Settlers (and love it), but this newest addition has some flaws that make us wish we would have bought the 3rd addition. We have had the game for about 8 months, and the interlocking border (instead of the regular hexagon pieces in the 3rd addition) have never fit right. It takes three people to get everything into place, and even then the border warps and the pieces pop out. They interlock like a puzzle piece, and they are starting to wear out, so we have finally given up on getting everything together correctly. If you were worried about the 3rd addition getting bumped and jumbled, you simply had to set up the game on a tablecloth or piece of fabric. This newer addition is impossible to setup correctly, especially as it ages.

Also note you cannot use your old expansion packs with the newer addition, as the pieces are different. You now have to pay for all the newer versions of the expansion packs, how convenient.

We still love this game and will play it regularly, it just seems the "advancements" were not tested or well planned. It is also bothersome that they made the newer additions incompatible with the old expansions, you can easily spend $150 on this game and the expansions, and you would expect that investment to last... it is a board game after all!

Customer Reviews

not as bad as reviews say
We got our turtle yesterday and no, the stars don't move and the yellow stars don't show, but my five year old loved having blue stars all over her room. The amber starts would only work if you have very, very dark walls, so they are pretty useless. Finding the constellations can be done if the turtle is in the middle of a large room. I don't know if it was an earlier model that people said the stars only showed if it was right next to the ceiling, but ours works even if it is on the floor. Granted, the stars are more detailed the closer you get, but I left it at the foot of my daughter's bed and her room was covered with stars. So the look of enchantment on her face was worth the thirty bucks, plus the turtle is cute. Also, please pay attention to the age recommendation--it truly is for three and over. My one year old would probably stand on it or drop it and the shell could be damaged, so it is for older children.

Great nightlight
My husband and I actually bought the turtle for ourselves. It sits on a chair in our bedroom - we turn it on every night before bed. The turtle is very cute and has three color lights to choose from (blue, white and green). The stars are kinda blurry with the white light, but are clear with the green and the blue. The light is soft and lasts just long enough to get to sleep.

LOVE IT! Highly Recommended!
I am an avid stargazer and have been looking for the perfect celestial touches for my soon-to-be-arriving baby's room. This is the most adorable and unique night light I have ever seen! It works beautifully - the star projections on the ceiling are great, and I am especially thrilled that they are actual constellations. To the reviewer who complained about the shell breaking and injuring her 18-month old, it says on the box that this is for ages 3 and up. It's not meant for babies to play with; it's more of a night light than a toy anyway. Overall I think it is a high quality, wonderful item and I would recommend it to anyone!

Lots of Different Ways to Throw a Bendy Ball
My twin 9-month olds, like all babies of that age, love to show when they're displeased by throwing something. When they try that with the Bendy Ball, most of the time they forget why they got upset.

This cute thing can be bent while holding and you can put your fingers inside it. Plus the ball inside that you can't quite get out has a little ball inside it that sounds like a bell almost. If you want to throw it to show your displeasure at something, you'll end up putting your fingers into it first. Those distractions are priceless.

By the time baby finally rolls this ball, it is with a positive frame of mind, and she wants it back to try again.
I can see that this durable little toy is going to be used in many ways and constantly. It's a lot of fun to roll their way and see how they try to figure out what to do with it.

Beyond that, the colors are great. The 5 outer caterpillar parts on diameter are cute. I think this is an educational toy that teaches about hand manipulation.

My four month old loves it!
A mom in my group had a similar one of these for her baby who just loved it. So when we were walking through the baby aisles at Target, we saw this one and just put it in the stroller with our baby to see if he would like it--and he played with it the entire time! So, of course, we bought it!

He has many other rattle-type toys meant for grabbing, but this is the first one he has actually grabbed on to and played with. It is very sturdy and actually a little heavier than I anticipated by just looking at it--I was worried it might be too heavy for him to pick up (since we had never really seen him pick up anything before) but he manages with no problems!

Good for grabbing
I like this toy because my almost 6-month old son can easily grab and hold on to it. However, he's at the stage where he wants to put everything in his mouth, and he tends to get frustrated becaues this doesn't really lend itself to being chewed on. I think he'll like it more when he can play with it like a ball, rather than trying to use it as a teether.

Customer Reviews

Can't do what it advertises.
The box shows a drawing of a planet and a rocket ship along with some stars. This drawing was impossible for me to make. I'd draw the planet but before I finished the rocket ship (going as fast as I could) the planet had completely dissappeared, never mind adding the special tip and putting on stars.

My 5 year old daughter saw the commercials for this and it was the only thing she asked Santa to bring her. She was dissappointed with it and we took it back. She liked the Color Explosion Glow Board better.

Lots of fun!
Our daughter received this for her fifth birthday and LOVES IT! I have to say that the concept is so simple that I'm amazed they didn't come up with it sooner. We hung it up in her room and it was very easy for her to play with. She kept asking me for an eraser and I had to explain that the designs would fade. [Take note: The toy comes with a dry erase marker. DO NOT LET YOUR CHILD USE IT TO MARK THE SCREEN! You're supposed to use it to mark a plain sheet of clear plastic. the marked up plastic then creates an image/pattern on the screen. We're not going to risk it. The dry erase marker is put away.] I liked how it had built-in storage for all of stencils, plastic sheets, and pieces. Very nice! Definately a keeper

As Seen on TV Fushigi Magic Gravity Ball

Product Description

Fushigi is a brand new, dynamically designed ball used in the mysterious art of contact juggling. With Fushigi the operator exploits the reflective properties of a sphere through specific hand and body isolations and movements that are designed to give the appearance that the Fushigi sphere is moving on its own or even floating. Using Fushigi is an incredible, therapeutic form of relaxation. The art of maneuvering a reflective sphere through mind and body isolation and manipulation creates the illusion that the sphere may be defying the laws of gravity, as if the sphere is moving on its own.

Customer Reviews

Sorry. The laws of physics still apply...
The only 'problem' with the Fushigi ball is that they're effectively marketing a skill- which requires tons of practice- by telling the public that the result is yielded by the product itself.

It's called 'contact juggling' and it's a really cool thing to watch. There's a gal on Youtube who takes an orange and achieves the very same illusion you see done on Fushigi ball commercials.

Maybe it's a bit mean-spirited of me, but I do kind of snicker at the enormous number of people who think that the Fushigi company has overcome the principles of gravity and put it into some magic ball. This thing is a classic, classic example of 'fools and their money..." Anyone who bought this thing truly believing that it somehow magically floated in the air is a colossal sucker; life for them will be a lot more disappointing than their Fushigi letdown.

I suppose it's a fine contact juggling ball, but just understand that you can do the same thing with any solid sphere and when you buy the Fushigi ball, if you're expecting the results to be as-seen-on-tv, you'd better be prepared to invest an awful lot of time and practice in learning the art itself. There is nothing magic about the Fushigi ball and you will not be able to 'make it float' just by buying one.

Save some cash and buy a $2.00 ball.
It looks amazing. The only problem is the people you see on the TV advertisement have all praticed for countless hours to make this thing work. If you like to juggle then maybe its for you. If you want something that you can take out of the box and make it work be prepared to do alot of pratice. The DVD is good to show you how they make it appear to be floating. But it is just an illusion, maybe a good gift for a magician or circus performer. Probably not a good choice for anyone under the age of 10.

Do not consider it a toy
This is not a toy, must be purchased for people older than 15 years. Lots of practice to get the best from it. Good as a different kind of amusement and be sure the one that receives it has the patience and interest with things that are not easy to handle but can provide satisfaction when learned.

A new twist on color wonder
We've been Color Wonder fans for years and have seen products come and go. This sound studio is a neat twist, and I think we'll be keeping it for a long time. The package includes the sound studio drawing board, 12 color wonder pages with pictures, 6 blank color wonder pages, 5 mini markers and 6 sound cards. Each sound card has 10 different sounds with themes including city, jungle, dinosaur, music, farm, and beach; a nice, basic variety. There is also a storage place in the back for 5 markers (mini or regular sized).

3 AA batteries (not included) are required before beginning. Once the batteries are installed you place a drawing sheet of paper under the clips and slide a sound card into the top. Applying a sound to the board is easy, you just push and hold the sound you want until it plays, then place and hold your finger on the board where you want until you hear the sound again. You do have to press firmly, but the sound will stay until you remove it with the erase button. You can remove each sound individually or erase the whole board to start fresh. The different drawing sheets follow the same themes as the sound cards, so you can mix it up or use the card that applies to that themed sheet. It seems that other color wonder sheets will also fit from the spiral bound books or blank drawing pads which is nice. Expansion card packs in Toy Story and Princess themes are also available separately.

Overall we're pleased and I know this product will get lots of use. Pros include ease of use, encourages matching and using your imagination, works with other color wonder sheets and has two volume control levels (medium and loud). Cons include no storage for paper or sound cards. We'll probably end up using a small bag and using the clips on the front to keep things together. Also the paper is loose, so we're putting it under the clips also to hold in place, it would have been nice to have somewhere in the case to put the extra sheets. I think that this is a nice addition to the color wonder line and would be fun for the 3+ recommended to an early elementary school aged child.

Edit: Figured out what the sound cartridge slot on the side is for - when you purchase an expansion pack you have to insert the included cartridge into the sound studio in order to use the expansion pack sound cards. With the original set of sounds being included in the sound studio (no cartridge required), this isn't an issue. So if you want to use the Toy Story expansion pack, you have to insert the Toy Story cartridge into the sound studio every time you use the Toy Story sound cards and it doesn't appear that you can mix/match expansion packs.
