Collectible Reviews

this doll is a cool one.
BRATZ ARE PREPS LIKE ME not.
BRATZ ARE THE COOLEST, PRETTIEST GIRLS IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD!!

This doll is great and all, but why on earth is she wearing a long coat, tall boots,long skirt,and jeans on the 4th of JULY??? "Heat Stroke Cloe" :)I think maybe a summer skirt, shorts, or dress would have made more sence. Don't you?

I am way over 9 years old....and I had to have this doll. I've been collecting Barbie dolls for a few years but I got bored with accumulating sealed boxes of beautifully attired dolls. When I saw the Bratz, I fell in love. I just wanted to play with the dolls, dress them, touch the accessories...and make believe.
It would be a good idea to have a storage container for the accessories because some of them are tiny and will disappear fast if not contained.
I admit I am out of touch with what kids are playing with these days. As a former teacher, I am quite sure that the children adore these figures mainly because of the contemporary clothing and the hair styles and the great platform shoes and boots.
This is my second Bratz. I have decided to collect only the Cloe model.
So, if you have kids, buy one for them and get yourself one, too!

I really enjoy owning this doll in my collection, Both outfits are well designed with an eye for detail. One thing I liked about spring fling was its appeal to natural looks, while remaining the signature funky style that the bratz possess. The doll has no harsh colors in her outfits and natural makeup. Very pretty!

I have this doll and recomend her.If you take her out of the box her hair style won't damage easily!Not like other bratz dolls.....Well,I must recomend her.She is very pretty.A must have.(...)And like this doll alot!(Hey,listen to the expert=)lol)

Jade is really pretty.

Her neck can brake very easly, so be careful if your going to play with this cutie.

If your an adult, and looking to buying this for your doughter, make sure she's 10 and up.

This figure is so much better than the first figure. It looks like Eomer and it doesn't have a stupid expression on the face. He also has very nice armour on.

Eomer action figure is great!It has a sword slash that is a very original spring chop action.Its sword is very durable and his cape comes on and off very easily.There are no downsides about this action figure so buy it!

This toy is awesome. He is very detailed. He looks just like the actor who plays him. He has an extreamly good paint job, except for his sord, which the paint peels off of. He has a sword slash action, but he doesnt have a button, unlike many of my other figures. He is kinda short compared to my other figures, and he doesnt move very well. One leg is longer than the other but its not very noticable. But overall, I recomend any collector to get this figure.

This 12" Sauron is one of the best toys i have seen so far. (...). He is movable and has light up eyes and he speaks phrases from the movie which is pretty awesome. Some of the things he says are "build me an army worthy of Mordor" "there is no life in the void" and "i see you"

If you're a collector like me, this toy is a must! The armor is fantastic. The throaty whisper of Sauron, along with his glowing red eyes is postively chilling. As for durability I don't know. I will never remove it from the box. I have collected them all (toybiz) and Sauron is the best!

This is a terrific piece. Not only do we finally get a Sauron figure, but we get one with a real cloth cape, light-up eyes, and movie phrases. With a character so evil and a figure so cool, who could ask for anything more? I would advise every Lord Of The Rings fan to pick one up. No, pick up two!!

My 19 month old grandson has become obsessed with JJ. He loved the TV, airport set, so I got him this 5 piece set. They are cute and look just like the cartoon figures.
We only just got the airport and the 5 piece set, so there has been no damage as yet. However, I have cautioned my daughter-in-law and son about the possibility of some of the pieces falling off, particulary Herky's blades.
My grandson just loves to play with them and that is good enough for me, with the caution mentioned.

My two and four year olds have played with these characters every day, they're so practical, they go in the car, everywhere in the house and don't seem to ever break. I had to get two sets - they love them that much! They provide so much entertainment, but they also spark their imagination, creativity, memory (they act out Jay Jay episodes as well as make up ones of their own) that I would recommend them for the sheer effect on their cognitive development. Great Great toys at a price that you can handle (at $10, if they break, you don't have to kick yourself).

My son loved it when we bought him the Jay Jay Jet Plane set for a Christmas grab bag. He played with it for a couple of weeks they Herky's wheels fell off then Tracy's. Eventually all of them started to break and it became unsafe since my son was putting the pieces in his mouth so we threw them out. I reccommend the wooden kind even if they are more expensive but worth it in the long run.

Like others who bought this box set, I wanted the Haldir figure, but Legolas, Gimli and King Theoden look like the actors and are finely detailed. The joints are strong plus all the accessories look nice. Aragorn, in my opinion, has never really been done exactly, but this is one of the better attempts. The Gimli is the same mold as the single TWO TOWERS figure, but with orc blood on his armour. Sometimes with box sets that include an 'exclusive' figure, the additional one is somewhat crummy, but the Haldir matches Craig Parker's likeness very well. The only flaw is the paint work. It's well done, but the color is too red compared to reference shots and in the film. Regardless, its a good one to have, and another quality set from Toy Biz.

This set was the BEST! It came with Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Theoden, and Haldir.
Aragorn is very durable and very fun. He comes with his Ranger sword and his Elvish dagger given to him by Celeborn.
Legolas is so sweet. He comes with two daggers, a Rohan sword, a bow, and five arrows. The knives are a little hard to keep in his hands but his other weapons make up for that.
Gimli is soooooooooooooooo cool. He has four axes and a nice removable helmet.
Theoden is ok but he looks fat and his sword is way to short.
Haldir was pretty cool but his sword is hard to get out of its sheath. It's also a little hard to get his bow to shoot
Anyway, I hope this helps. :)

THIS IS REALLY FUN TO PLAY WITH AND THE PAINT IS AWSOME BUT THE DURABILITY ISANT SO GOOD. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK OUT HALIDIR'S SWORD IT BROKE IN TWO ( HALIDIR'S SWORD IS REALLY COOL WHEN IT DOSENT BREAK), AND WHEN I TOOK OUT AROGON HIS HAND FELL OFF. DON'T THINK THIS IS A CHEAP SET AND IT IA A RIP OFF BECAUSE ALL THE CHARACHTORS HAVE A GREAT PAINT JOD AND IT IS REALLY FUN TO PLAY WITH.

The Princess of Ireland Barbie is a fine "starter" doll for Barbie collectors. Part of the very reasonably priced Dolls of the World collection, this particular Barbie stands out amongst equals.

The doll has a particularly Irish look, having been graced with auburn hair and striking green eyes. Her green and gold gown is highly stylized, is detailed, and is designed with accurate Celtic cinquefoils and a claddagh brooch on her blue velvet cape, giving this Barbie a quaint Medieval/Celtic appearance.

The display box is relatively ordinary compared with some Barbie display boxes, but the graphic shows a mist-enshrouded castle in the background. There is some interesting information on the ancient Celts on the rear exterior of the box.

The fine quality of the costume and the small, detailed parts do not make this a good "play" Barbie for young children. Best to leave her in the box, purely for display.

I have purchased this Barbie for three separate serious adult collectors, and she ranks as a favorite with all three women.

The Princess of Ireland will make a lovely addition to anyone's Barbie collection.

Coming from an Irish family, I have accumulated many different types of Irish collectibles over the years: stuffed animals, Beanie Babies, glasses, books, jewelery...all with some sort of Irish theme. But until recently I didn't have any Irish dolls, porcelain or otherwise. I have been collecting Dolls of the World Barbies for a number of years, and more recently Princess of the World dolls, so I couldn't believe it when I found out that a Princess of Ireland Barbie would be made. I was nervous that the doll wouldn't "feel" Irish enough. So when I received her in the mail I was pleasantly surprised that she was even more beautiful than in the photos online. Her complexion is very fair, and her auburn hair is stunning in natural light. Her green eyes are sparkling and mysterious, and she wears a very light rose eyeshadow that makes her beautiful eyes stand out even more. Her costume is sort of a medieval/Celtic blend. She wears a velvety soft forest green cloak with a golden Tara brooch clasp, a traditional Celtic design. Her dress is a crinkly olive green fabric with a stripe of Celtic designs down the middle. At her waist she wears a belt of three golden medallions with Celtic designs, and on her head, perfectly balanced atop her auburn hair, a golden crown fit for an Irish princess. The box she comes in is also perfect for displaying her in. Appropriately enough, it is green (Ireland is actually a Viking word for green) with golden trim. The backdrop inside of the box is an Irish castle. There is information about the Celts on the back of the box. This is sure to become a treasured keepsake in my family, and I'm planning on buying more for relatives and friends.

THE PRINCESS OF IRELAND doll is stunning. Her best asset, besides her auburn hair, is her complexion. We are talking strawberries and cream here. She has deep green, mysterious eyes that make you feel like she is trying to tell you something. Her lips are a deep burgundy that complement her dress and together with her rich, dark green robe, make this doll seem to come to life. The background of the box is of a light brown traditional stone castle that always comes to mind whenever I think of Ireland. I really need to visit this country someday, being part Irish myself.

The only bad thing I noticed is the ends of her hair are slightly tangled. But the all the previous features as well as the gold accents (the crown, the medallions on her waist and the golden brooch on her right shoulder of her robe, plus the lovely accents of gold on the dress) certainly make up for this one flaw.

The other dolls in the "Dolls of the World Princess Collection" include the Princess of China and the Princess of the Nile. Two year limited warranty, certificate of authenticity, doll stand and dark green flat shoes accompany the PRINCESS OF IRELAND. Obviously a great value, she would be a fantastic addition to a collection or as a gift. THE PRINCESS OF IRELAND is definitely a keeper.

This is my favorite toy. He has a cool soft chest, and u can throw him off the stairs and he wont break. THIS TOYS SO COOL. Too bad the sais are flexible. The zipline is a cool addition, and so is the DVD that came with this. Donny sucks balls though.

Ok. Raph does have a temper problem, but he means well. You can tell this by looking at this cool action figure. I'm not gonna talk about accessories and stuff 'cause people have done it already and did a pretty good job. The thing is: tough Raph is the gang's "hothead" he's also the bravest fighter and the first one to jump in action if someone is in trouble. Raph is a great guy and this action figure will really make a TMNT fan happy. Belive me, I know what I'm talking about ^__^. After all, I AM a TMNT's fan, you know.

While I always liked Leos Ninja-like style, Raphaels anger made him most human-like for me. I never knew which one I like most, they have both cool sides and together they are best.
So those were the first two toys I bought, followed by Don. Unfortunately the Raph figure is not as good as the other turtles.
The first point is his colour, it's way to bright, a bit darker green would have looked more like the tv version and would have more fit in with his character.
Second are his sais. Why does Playmates continue in giving Raph the wrong sais? The toy has sais looking like short sworts, while the tv and comic Raph has sai-forks, which he can put through his fingers. ToyBiz's Marvel legends Electra has those forks.
Third is his belt. They should have made the places for the sais at his belly, not under his arms. You can't really put them in there.
But after all the figure is still cool. The modeling is much better then the old one's, the paint job is good and the face has a real good expression.
So I give 4 stars, but it could have been five.

I finally got the time to buy five Gundam Wing model kits ...! One of the models were the one and only, Gundam Deathscythe. The original Gundam suit Duo Maxwell pilots in Operation Meteor. This is simply the greatest model that I have ever owned. It has a Beam Scythe and a Buster Shield that are used as "Giant Scissors". Nothing is wrong with this Gundam, except that when I completely built the Deathscythe, its feet are loose, making it stand at a ridiculous position, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The only thing that I worried about, was the fact that when I pulled out the Beam Scythe out of the frame, it snapped in two, but its a good thing I have super glue. So in the end, the Gundam Deathsycthe is not a bad model, its just not well balanced like the ones I've got.

Hello everyone out there in internet land, this is Zippo with a toy reveiw. Deathscythe was my first gundam model, and i thought it was very, very cool. You should only get one if you have the patience to cut out the peices with scissors, because if you try to pull them out, they may break. However, a reason it is good for beginners is that it doesn't need very much paint AT ALL. The only things that really need paint are the laser blade things on the scythe and shield. I also painted the eyes and chin, because the decals for those parts are so small that one would need an electron microscope just to find them, and needless to say, they're hard to attach. This is a good toy for play or display because it is durable and poseable. The only problems i had were the yellow horns on his head don't stay in unless you glue them, but that's easy, and for some reason the head flops around like his neck is broken or something. The thing about the floppy head might just be a problem with my particular model though. WARNING: if you are a parent buying this item for their child as a present, be prepared to buy many, many more or to drive all over the state finding stores that carry them because ONE IS NOT ENOUGH!!! I already have 6 and as soon as the one i ordered off of this very website gets here i'll have 7....

The Geno Breaker is the best Tyrannussaurus zoid if you ask me. On most reveiws, people don't give you everything you want to know but I will. First off, this zoid is not to difficult to build. It was actually very easy even though I have built at least 30 zoids before this. The zoid is red and gray. It's as detailed as it's gonna get. It's eyes which light up are covered by a thin layer of plastic to protect them from being scratched. It's tail swishes as it walks, it's arms move and it has a charged particle cannon. This zoid is built just like Bezerk Fury, Dark Spiner, and Geno Saurer. It has the same two pieces around the motor body too, but the head was different on the Geno Breaker because the head is built around a light. It wepons include two buster claws, two pulse laser guns, and a charged particle cannon. The Buste claws can be folded back into the claw case. The blade on top of his head is just a normal stabbing blade. He has 10 articulation points and is one of my favorite zoids. He also come with two Raven pilots, one standing up, and one sitting down. A gave him a 5 on fun because he i just so fun to play with. He towers above other zoids, and then crushes them between his claws. I gave him a 4 on educational value because when building you learn constructional skills. I gave him a 4 on durability because it can break if you throw it across the room but who would do that and why. I've dropped mine three or four times and it still looks brand new. All in all this is a great zoid.
Pro's:
Great Detail
Awesome Weapons
Very Durable

Con's:
None!!!!!

this is a great toy .Though i wouldnt reccomend it for beguiners .i think this zoid would be good for anybody who's built atleast 3 zoids already.the hard part for me was getting the cockpit on. it took me about an hour to figure out that i had it on upsidedown but i don't tink that has any thing to do with it's chicken walk.the thing is too heavey for it's legs to carry itself but if you pick it up off the ground a little then it actualy walks pretty fast.that is after you've taken the booster pack off. hope this review was helpful.

The Geno Breaker is a very cool zoid! He's alot bigger than I thought he would be. The hardest part to put together is the head/neck part. You have to make sure you read the instructions real carefully. I got a little confused on that part and the cockpit part. He came out real nicely after I was finished. When turned on, he walks and his eyes light up while his jaw moves.
