Hasbro Toys Reviews

I got this toy during the holidays when it was marked down to $5.99. What a steal! My son (16 months) plays with it everyday. He loves putting the shapes in the top, clicking the gas pump handle, flipping the green thing at the top and putting the credit card in his mouth... did I mention he is 16 months? I don't know if I would be as happy to pay the full price, but as much as he plays with it, it might have been worth it. Every child is different.Get more detail about Playskool Tonka Lil Gas Pump.

As with any of the Littlest Pet Shop toys, the child has to be able to provide the story line, etc. I love these toys because my children will make up all kinds of storylines and background. They will play with them for hours, doing there voices, etc. These toys are great imagination builders. Get more detail about Hasbro Littlest Pet Shop Super Surprise Obstacle Course.

The set has a variety of different presses/ figures to make, and nice colors. For the price, it is a great buy.Get more detail about Play-Doh Undersea Adventure Bucket.

As a minor board game fan, I never really felt compelled to actually purchase board games until Hasbro finally got the wonderful idea to put together a handful of their favorite games in "nostalgia" packaging in a wonderful wooden box! Finally there are board minds I don't mind owning, playing, and most importantly displaying.

Most of the games in the "Library" set have minor problems like board size or piece size, but all in all these games are a perfect addition to any classy front room. Scrabble, however, is without any real changes or problems at all. The board is full size, the tiles have no problems staying on the board when it's on a flat surface, and the board creases don't really mess anything up. The ONLY problem I have with this set is that the wooden box that the game comes in does not have the little magnet that keeps the lid from sliding out when taking out the game! It's hardly even a gripe at all, but when all the other ones have it and this one doesn't it makes you wonder what the hell happened over at Hasbro. Also, you might want to buy these games in person; for some reason the gold lettering on the spine of the "books" tends to be in varying conditions (some are faded, some are greenish). Go for the gold!

Regardless, Scrabble (much like the games in the whole set) is a wonderful game and this set is absolutely worth buying. Keep the cheapo paper box version for the kids, and put this up in the bookshelf for visitors over 10. You won't be disappointed.Get more detail about Library Scrabble Game Set.

Bought this for our 3 1/2+ year old grandaughter. She loved it......in fact, we ALL loved it! Just wanted something other than a doll and this fit the bill. Was happy for other Amazon ratings which guided me to the Furreal monkey because of its love-ability! A little child might manhandle the arms, and I'm afraid that might break the toy......but it was a very special gift that delighted our little girl!Get more detail about Furreal Friends Cuddle Chimp.

The Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 is disappointingly weak. It shoots darts about 10 feet and jams often. Don't be fooled by the video advertisement, as I was. This thing is feeble. I recommend The Nerf N-Strike Raider Rapid Fire CS-35 Dart Blaster as a much better alternative.

Im 14 yrs. old and i got this last year at first its sooo much fun it also gives you chores to earn money and hang with friends to play sports but it doesn't really teach that much because if you skip school nothing happens i let my little cousin try it (she 8 yrs. old) she was kinda confused because she asked me so in this game i could skip school and fail tests (on the game) and go to the mall instead?? so thats what i thought was bad but other than that its a fun gameGet more detail about Hasbro DreamLife Interactive TV Plug-In Game.

Did not realize there is so many versions of Connect4. We have fun playing this and thinking for little ones is good. We have the 6+ version for our daughter...and so far pleased and having fun with it.
Great Gift Idea!Get more detail about Connect Four.

Our granddaugher loves to play with the market. She is learning counting, money and various types of vegetables with this product. She has spent many happy hours playing with the the market. She has had the market about a year and everything is still in good shape. Wonderful product.Get more detail about Playskool Cherry Blossom Market.

My football fanatic son (12 years old) loves these things - we have them for a few other teams as well. They are not big enough for him to play with outside with his friends, but they are PERFECT for inside.

When we watch football, for 10+ hours every Sunday during football season, he wants a football in his hands at all times, and he loves to toss it up and down as he watches, or have a few passes with us during commercials. This ball is great for that because it's small so he can hold it in one hand and it's soft so I don't mind him tossing it in the house.

As I said, we have 3 or 4 of these so I can address durability: They last about 2 years and then they start peeling and crumbling. I think $15 is money well spent on 2 years of fun.

A word about price: Occasionally, and randomly, amazon will have one team or another's ball priced at $85 which is ridiculous. Of course I don't recommend buying these at that price!

Bottom line: An excellent and inexpensive little football for indoor play, or for outdoor play too for the younger kids. Highly recommend!Get more detail about Hasbro Nerf NFL Pro Grip Football Pittsburgh Steelers.

Everyone in the house plays with this. All ages love it. I believe it taught me several words that I don't normally include in everyday speaking. Also helps improve your spelling.Get more detail about My Q Pocket Words.

My 5 and 8 year old boys love this set. Be sure to wear the glasses and beware the velcro on the end of some darts can hurt when shot at close range. But otherwise, cool toy!Get more detail about Nerf Dart Tag Capture the Flag Set - Green/Orange.

Why seven stars?! Because it is fully portable, it spins, it has grooves to hold the game peices, it has two hidden side drawers to hold the game peices and manual, sleak design, diamonds instead of blank tiles, and it's a TON OF FUN!

This was a Christmas gifr from friends, and needless to say- I love it! It travels well, and it impresses everyone I show it too to boot!Get more detail about Scrabble, Diamond Anniversary Edition.

The pieces fit too tight for my 2-yr old to assemble the arms and ears & some of the parts do not fit on at the same time - only one set of ears fits at the same time as one set of arms and the police belt interferes with the hole for the mouth! The legs are also too lose in the slot. You would think that a toy that's been around as long as Mr. Potato head would be perfected by now, but the designers just don't seem to be thinking. Also, the case latch is very poorly designed and it pops open easily and there is not enough room in the case to fit all of the pieces, so the smaller parts still have to be placed inside the potato's "bum". I wish these toys were made like they used to be! I don't remember having these complaints about the one I played with as a child (>20 years ago).Get more detail about Mr. Potato Head Silly Suitcase-Colors May Vary.

The Boutique Edition of Monopoly is cute, and it's perfect for girls. When they outgrow the pink game after moving through the pink phase of their lives . . . if they ever do . . . they can keep the game for a unique collector's item. There is only one problem though: it can be obtained in local stores for less money. I suppose if you have to travel very far to a store to buy it, pay sales tax, and then pay to mail it to a friend out of town, you cannot beat this deal.

Playskool must be making money on these movie tie-in characters because they keep on coming. This one is eye-catching with the bright orange color. Had I seen the actual Transformer movie, this robotic spud might be more of a hit with me. The first Transformer spud, Optimash Prime, has a more imposing and striking appearance with its mechanical arms and one piece helmet/nose configuration.

As I look at this Transformer spud, it crosses my mind that Mr. Potato Head is the original, low-tech transformer, changing appearance and form with some manipulation and switching of body parts.

As with all of the modern Potato Heads, kids will have more fun if more spare parts are available to them, especially those of Optimash.

I don't know how kids feel about it, but I'm disappointed that none of the Transformer body parts actually transform. They are all static, stationary parts that can't be bent, turned, or transformed in any way. One can only change the appearance of the machine-like parts by moving them or turning them over. Don't know if it was intentional, but I think it's amusing that car parts were used to configure an autobot.



Finally - This is an OK Mr. Potato Head. Others have been much more clever and dramatic in appearance than this one. Play value is limited by the amount of spare pieces on hand. I like that this particular spud was very easy to remove from the box. A four-year-old could do it without help.
On the side of the box containing this "more than meets the fry" figure is a "Pop `N Keep" punch out perforated mask. How long such a mask will survive in the hands of a toddler is anyone's guess.
This is not the best of the Potato Heads, but if your youngster likes Mr. Potato Head, he or she will probably like this action figure toy.

Bumble Spud earns three stars on its own merits and one star for being a Potato Head under those pseudo metallic trappings. Four stars I give Bumble Spud.

This glue is easy to apply (even in sections, for unfinished puzzles), and dries clear. However, I haven't used any other brand of puzzle glue, so I can't really compare this kind to anything else. The bottle contains enough glue to cover 1 medium-sized puzzle and 1 large-sized puzzle (23'x33'). You will probably want to apply two coats in order to get the puzzle rigid enough to mount on a wall -- and in this case, 1 bottle per puzzle should be the rule.

I did have some problems with the brush hairs coming off onto the wet puzzle, and it's annoying to try and pick them off a gluey surface.Get more detail about Hasbro Liquid Puzzle Saver Glue.

I gave my girls Pet Shop VIPs last year for Christmas. The VIPs created a virtual counterpart of the stuffed pets they received. We also received one year of online access for each pet. This year, they requested and received the new Littlest Pet Shop LPSOs. I purchased 2 pets and attempted to set up their online access today. I noticed the LPSO pet uses a different web site than the VIP pets. Well, turns out the LPSO pet is only good for a 30-day trial of online access. If you want another 30 days, it'll cost nearly $7. And an entire year, (which you get automatically with webkinz), is FIFTY-SEVEN DOLLARS!!! I thought I was seeing things. My immediate reaction was to pack both dolls back up and exchange them for Webkinz. My daughters already received four Webkinz for Christmas and they really liked their LPSOs and wanted to keep them. My older daughter asked if she could use some of her Christmas money to pay for a subscription. I told her to try the trial first and see if it's worth the $57. So far, they appear to enjoy the online play, but I'm pretty peeved that the toy was so misleading. Nowhere on the box does it indicate that the online play is trial only, unless you pay additional money. Also, you do not get an online counterpart of the pet you purchase. Once enrolled, you create a totally new pet. That makes me wonder why they're even selling the stuffed versions at all. Just more money down the drain, unless you specifically bought it for the stuffed animal only. Given that these things are marketed as "online", it seems very misleading. One last gripe, trying to find and connect to the same servers is an exercise in futility. My girls tried to find each other in their virtual worlds. However, all of the servers have "0" for the number of online players and my girls get different lists of servers when they log on at the same time using different computers. Overall, I'm disappointed and will not be purchasing these again in the future. I'll stick with Webkinz.Get more detail about Littlest Pet Shop LPSO Virtual Pets - DOG 1.

Our daughter is now to the age where we want to introduce her to all the old classic board games we enjoyed as kids. But as I'm sure you know, after years of use and abuse, the standard cardboard-boxed board games start to disintegrate and playing pieces begin disappearing. Not to mention, storing all those large and different-sized game boxes becomes a hassle.

Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised when my daughter recently received two Hasbro Vintage board games for her birthday: "Monopoly" and "Clue."

For those of you old enough to remember the '3m Bookshelf' Games from the 1960's and 70's, Hasbro has taken the idea to a new level.
While the 3m Games (and other manufacturuers who followed in their shoes) were simply nicely-decorated cardboard boxes that could be stored on your bookshelves, the new Hasbro games are housed in sturdy wooden boxes that are designed to resemble leather-bound books. In fact, the Hasbro games look identical to my old collection of textbooks from lawschool - except for the words "monopoly" and "Clue" printed on their spine.

"Monopoly" contains all the playing pieces you're accustomed to (the money and property deeds are slightly smaller than in the classic version of the game), but the houses and hotels are made of solid wood rather than cheap plastic. The colors and finishes on the board, playing pieces, and printed stock gives the set an old-fashioned (dare I say 'vintage') feel.
"Clue" also has all the familiar playing pieces you've come to know, but in this case, everything appears to be the same size as in the classic version (as far as I can tell).

The only concern I have is regarding the construction of the playing boards. Due to the compact size of the 'faux-book' container, it was necessary for Hasbro to make the playing board fold multiple times in order to fit. This results in a single short, thin paper hinge that holds the two main portions of the board together when unfolded on the table. Care will need to be taken when handling the board to avoid tearing this hinge; it doesn't look like it will take much abuse.

But, all in all, these games are a great value for the money and they will make a very handsome addition to any formal library.

I purchased this for my 4-year-old daughter who LOVES My Little Ponies, especially the entire So Soft series. She was excited that Starsong came with the extra feeding supplies and cloth, as opposed to just a bottle or just a pacifier like the previous Ponies. This Pony says more things than the previous ponies, so that was also exciting for her. It's a great toy for the kid who loves them.Get more detail about My Little Pony So Soft - Starsong.
