G.I. Joe 8 Inch Commando Snake Eyes Ninja Armor Review

G.I. Joe 8 Inch Commando Snake Eyes Ninja Armor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There's always something to love about the uber cheesy exploits of Duke and his friends, and Snake Eyes is a lovable one indeed. My first comment is that the weapon container is wonderfull. Instead of having a bunch of swords and guns laying around, you put then into a nice case. Just a little detail. Snake Eyes himself is awesome. Good articulation, his arms are a tad odd, but fine overall. Detail on this guy is great, he even has a little wrist computer thingy on his arm that you can flip open. All the "Battle Armor," comes off, so again, good detail. One little complaint is that besides his weapons, he comes with a useless jetpack/ thing. Kinda lame. But hey, Snake Eyes is good for collectors like myself and kids as well. This would make a 8-10 year old's day.

Star Wras Attack of the Clones Jango Fett w/Snap On Armor Review

Star Wras Attack of the Clones Jango Fett w/Snap On Armor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When dealing with this figure, I would have to say that there are many pros, but there are a few cons as well. This is not to say that the figure isn't superb (especially considering the quality of the last Star Wars releases that I have to compare them to), but it could have had a few things to give it that extra "O yeah" ness. Also, for some sick reason, a few of my friends consider some of the cons "too much," so I'll list them in case you, too, find this to be too offensive enough to warrant a non-purchase. (although Jango cries inside when you don't buy him)
Pros:
1)Looking at the naked Jango you see inside of a package makes you appreciate all of the little accessories that he comes with. For instance, this version comes with wrist cuffs that can be taken on and off, a chest piece that can be treated the same way, plus an extra weapon (which, in my mind, is a con as well.) to go on top of his two pistols.
2)The sounds the backpack produces, while very basic, are really true to the Star Wars sounds. Blaster fire and Jetpacks have that distinct sound, and are easily recognized when reproduced properly. Sadly, there are but two.
Cons:
1) The pistols are homeless, unlike those of the "Escape" model (which you need to buy).It actually has holster on each leg for those minute weapons, giving the figure than much more. For the extra money to get the sound effects, I would have also liked to had my weapons fit my figure like the other one does.
2) The "big shooting weapon" is always a defect in my book. I really don't need one, and would prefer something else, especially when "shooting" means me pushing the projectile out. Plunging isn't something I like to do in my freetime, and this action always reminds me of it for some reason.
3) The huge jetpack is so bulky that it makes Jango tip over quite often. You can see that it isn't the right size in the pictures, and can tell this in person ever better. Also, the noises are a bit primitive and could have numbered in the thousands! (or at least four), but o well.
That said, I still think the figure is still a wonderful buy. The accessories alone get my vote, and I would have given it five stars if Jango's backpack hadn't thrown him into my floor three times already this morning.
Don't listen to my friends! Jango's therapist says he needs you so much.

Care Bears Bedtime Bear Large Pillow / Plush Doll 30 inches - " The One and Only Care Bears Cuddly Pillow" Review

My four year old grand daughter is totally into Care Bears, we presented her with this for her birthday, and it was definitely the winning gift, eyes aglow, big hugs....for the bear ( ; She checked it out thoroughly, passed her inspection, had to have the heart on the bottom. She sleeps with it, soft enough to be used as a pillow, big enough to be used as a body pillow, great purchase.

Alien VS. Predator NECA Exclusive Action Figure 2 Pack Alien Vs. Predator Review

Alien VS. Predator NECA Exclusive Action Figure 2 Pack Alien Vs. Predator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First and foremost I want to point out that this exclusive 2 pack can be picked up at Toys R Us for $24.99 WHILE SUPPLIES LAST! Don't order the 2 pack from this seller as they are charging you double the price! I am trying to help out some fellow toy collector fans or parents looking for cool toys for their children.
Okay, so now that that's out of the way I can move on to my review.
This is a great collector's piece for fans of the Alien and Predator movies. This TRU exclusive two pack comes with an 8" Classic 1979 Alien. Beautifully sculpted and well articulated. The jaw on the Alien is articulated and opens, so that the inner mouth can extend. It's a little tricky to get it to come out, I recommend using a small gripping device to nudge it out. The tail is bendable and the tail does hold it's position. Some previous Alien figures NECA has released have had issues with the tail not being cooperative. The ankles support the figure well even for it's shape and height. I have had no issues with balance and stability.
The Predator figure is a 7" sculpt of the 1987 Classic Predator with his mask off. The Predator's face looks amazing, like it came straight out of the movie. The Predator features a removable backpack, retractable wrist blades, and trophy necklaces adorn the Predator's chest. The Predator's paint detail is very true to the movie, but not as detailed as the 1/4 Scale Sculpt of the 1987 Predator shipping in April. My favorite part of this figure is the mouth, with the teeth and mandibles. Very exciting figure. However, be careful with the left arm. It's very stiff and if you try and force it to move it may break the peg in the arm. I recommend either freezing the toy or running it under hot water to help loosen the joints.
This TRU exclusive 2 pack also features skulls of both the Alien and Predator, both feature great detail making this a must for any Alien/Predator fan/collector. The mouth on the skull of the Alien even opens, but no inner mouth is featured. I hope this review helps and remember, check your local Toys R Us first before buying overly priced items on Amazon.
I also gave this an educational rating of 2 stars because I feel like every person should know and watch the Alien/Predator movies. Great movie classics.

Super Mario Brothers : Bowser Plush - 10" Review

Super Mario Brothers : Bowser Plush - 10
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this as a gift out of my wish list, and to be honest, the picture looks a lot better than the real thing. I was mostly disappointed with the black "bracelets" and collar that he wears and his eyebrows being cheaply glued in place. Glued. Don't expect it to hold together in the wash. The most "interesting" part, is that; and I am appealing to the collectors out there; is that the tag claims to be the Bowser from Mario Party 5, with what I can only guess is the copyright 2010 from Hudson Soft and Nintendo, although no copyright symbol is present, nor is the official Nintendo logo/seal. The tag is written in characters, I'm guessing Japanese, however in English, it clearly states "Yoshi". Leads me to believe this is some kind of bootleg. I am disappointed in the quality of workmanship, would not recommend this for children at the very least due to the glued pieces that can be ripped off. As for it being a gift from my wish list, it's the thought that counts.

I bought this for a friend as a Secret Santa gift and it was an absolute hit. It was used, so the box was a little bashed up when it arrived, but it was definitely worth it. My friend is a huge JT fan, so this was the perfect gift for her. And it was under our $20 spending limit!!
