.LEGO Star Wars 7667: Imperial Dropship
City Travel Guides > Toys > Toys
from: LEGO


Lego kick off their 2008 Star Wars series with a set from the Expanded Universe range with kit #7667: Imperial Dropship.
After the success of last years Clone Trooper and Battle Droid battle packs it's nice to see Lego continuing with more troop building box sets.
The Imperial Dropship is a small planet skimming craft with a cockpit for a pilot, wing mounted cannons and a deployable troop platform to the rear. The cockpit hinges open and closed and the rear tail and thruster assembly pivots up to allow the troop platform to detach.
You get one Shadow Trooper pilot (previously only available in 2007's TIE Crawler) and 3 Stormtroopers. Two blaster rifles and 2 heavy assault rifles finish the set.
The kit is composed of ... Read More:

.Carcassonne
City Travel Guides > Toys > Toys
from: Rio Grande Games


Carcassonne is a brilliant game full of surprises. It's basically just taking a tile and laying it in the right place, but there's a bit of oomph you've to put into it as well, and that is what makes it fun and exciting. I can't wait to get some expansions which are supposed to make it better.

It's price is very good for the game and I'm very pleased with it, it's also very addictive. William.

.Travel Scrabble
City Travel Guides > Toys > Toys
from: Mattel


I was looking for a replacement for my travel magnetic scrabble as the letters on that tend to fall off as the glue holding the letter to the magnet melts in the heat. Apart from that, it was a well designed set which was compact and everything fitted into the board when not being used.

This version is much bigger. The board opens on one side (not on both as per other reviewers - maybe they have changed the design) to hold the racks and any unplayed tiles while played tiles can simply remain on the board.

My main gripe is that shuffling the tiles on the rack is not easy as they are quite a tight fit. I m anticipating losing a few tiles before long.

.Cinderella Glass Slipper Game

from: Jumbo


This board game is fantastic fun for any little girl who loves princesses. I can only say that since this game arrived three days ago my little 6 year old princess has asked to play it 5 or 6 times and that is a first. Normally she is bored by board games.

.Winning Moves - Pass the Pigs
City Travel Guides > Toys > Toys
from: Winning Moves


This has to be the best and most addicting game ever! I love it. It reminds me when I was younger (about 8-10 y.o) when I used to go to the pub with my dad and his friend, I'd make them play it with me all the time and 'bet' money, because I was only young, I obviously had no money, so if they won they got nothing, but whenever I won, they'd give me 50p, I used to leave the pub about a tenner up, haha. I've been trying to find this game for ages, could never find it anywhere, never thought to look on Amazon! So happy I've found it again.

.Shaker Maker - Disney Princess
City Travel Guides > Toys > Toys
from: Flair


My daughter chose this toy, although I'd read the negative reviews on this site. If things go wrong, I'd suggest it's because people haven't read the instructions carefully enough before starting. With the right amount of shaking and tapping to get rid of bubbles, we found the models came out perfectly with incredibly detailed features of dresses and faces. My five year old then managed to paint them herself (with some help at finishing touches) and she is immensely proud of her models. The only thing I would say is that the figures on the box don't necessarily match those in the box. We have one figure we don't recognise (although we've seen all the Disney films). Never mind, we just chose our own colours for this one.
Adult help definitely needed, but ... Read More:

.Silverlit PicooZ Twin Blade 3 Channel Helicopter - TandemZ
City Travel Guides > Toys > Toys
from: Silverlit

April 14, 2008
I'd been hanckering after a RC helicopter for a while, and one with at least 3 channels, and this fitted the bill on a special offer price of a little over 20 quid.

6 AA batteries are required for the control unit, from which the helicopter cahrges. It needs about 30 minutes for a good 10 minutes flying. Not pictured on the sales images are the two clear plastic stabilising fins which help it stay stable, but they do work,the front one can be removed when experience is gained.

Overall, after the helicopter is trimmed, stable flight can be easily achieved, but it does struggle near the ground as its own draft makes it unsteady. While the body is only polystyrene, its quite robust surviving many crashes into walls at hitting the ceiling. ... Read More:
