My Little Fireman's $22 "Box". by mtrenck Pros: Quick setup, cheap price, and tons of fun!
Cons: Questionable design. While the box may say ages 3 and up, my 18 month old seems to have no problem taking full advantage of the Playhut Fire Engine. Although with its super simple design I'm not sure how any toddler or crawler couldn't figure this out and get some use ...

Jabba's Message Is Slightly Garbled With This Small But Figure Rich Set by Freak369 Pros: Three mini figures, arch piece, sandstone columns, inexpensive when released.
Cons: Absolutely no replay value as a stand-alone set. It's been a while since I've dug out the Star Wars Lego sets; most of them have been used to build an ongoing project that the boys are in charge of so work on it goes in spurts. Jabba's ...

Lego Finally Creates The Perfect, Highly-Functional Portable Weapon With The Knights Kingdom II "Fireball Catapult" by Freak369 Pros: Two figures, one horse, series exclusive pieces, sweet fireball.
Cons: Not much fun as a stand alone set, can be overpriced. First off, the listing for this shows it as a Knights Kingdom set. Technically it is but it is in the second installment of the series so it should be Knights Kingdom II. This helps to eliminate a ...

Mattel Barbie Doggie Park with Nikki playset by michelle7898 Pros: fun, comes with a lot of extras
Cons: Very small pieces follow age guide lines! I had purchased the Mattel Barbie Doggie Park with Nikki play set for my daughter back in November 2009. She was turning seven years old and this was one of her birthday presents. Lucky for me I did get a great deal on it. But I would have paid the ...

Admiral Ackbar: A Rather Squidish Star Wars Lego Mini Figure by Freak369 Pros: Awesome head piece, nice uniform, great collectible.
Cons: Only appeared in one set, expensive as an individual mini figure. Unless you are a hard core Star Wars freak, chances are the name Admiral Ackbar won't mean much to you. I knew a little about him but when I got the Star Wars Mon Calamari Star Cruiser set ...

Movie Masters: The Dark Knight: Gotham City Thug Figure by leer83 Pros: - Loads of articulation for a 6-inch figure.
- Decent sculpt. Cons: - Lousy, child-like accessories. When I heard about the release of the "Movie Masters" line for "The Dark Knight" movie, I was highly skeptical because Mattel was producing these figures. However, when I heard that the Four Horsemen were sculpting these figures, I was a bit less ...

Lego Mad Scientist: Demented, Creepy, Maniacal, Perfect by Freak369 Pros: Dual sided face peg, sweet expressions, stenciled detail.
Cons: Easy to get ripped off with modified or homemade figures. If you are in to collecting Lego figures you will know that there are some that are worth a lot more than others. When something is a "set exclusive" that means that you can only get it in that specific set. If something is ...

It Boggles Some Minds by criteeker Pros: minutes of brain-bending fun turn into hours of frenzied competition
Cons: Can become addicting, the shaking can be quite loud, can lose dice Come with me, back to a more innocent time - I was in the 5th grade. Yes, the wheel and fire had already been discovered in case you're wondering just how old I am. One class from my elementary school and one class from a nearby elementary ...

A Poorly Planned Add-On Lego Adventurers Set But Tons of Awesome Accessories by Freak369 Pros: Skeleton, scorpion, map tile, treaded tires.

Star Wars: Saga Legends - Biker Scout Figure by leer83 Pros: - Cool, updated Biker Scout figure.
- 14 points of articulation. Cons: - Lousy "Collector Coin" I don't know what it is about villains and their cool-looking (and somewhat "intimidating") armor, but I've always found myself drawn to them. And these Biker Scouts are no exception. Watching these guys "whiz" by, chasing after those pesky ...

A Humble Sort of Ornament; It Doesn’t Do Anything But Look Adorable! by melissamarie21 Pros: Beautifully designed, great holiday feel to it.

Slave Labor & Unfair Labor Practices Thrived In Lego's Blacksmith Shop by Freak369 Pros: Tons of great pieces, enchanting female figure, fun build.
