Collectible Reviews

Play cards from 0 - 9 to take tricks. The cards also have from 1-4 cans, which indicate their worth after all tricks are played. Your score equals the total number of cans on all the cards you took in tricks. Additional scoring can be had via the flags. The Catsup Cannon can eliminate a card from any trick when played. At the end of the game, highest score wins!

A trick-taking game from 3-5 players (with partnership rules for 4 players). It's pretty fun -- not awful, but not spectacular.

Oh, and the game comes in a can, like the old band-aid cans. There are four different cans (one for each suit in the deck, with that suit prominently displayed on the can). It's the *can* that's collectible, not the card game!

I am a longtime Warcraft fan and have collected the related figures since the first ones were released in 1998. When I heard that three new ones were coming out; based on Warcraft III: Prince Arthas the Death Knight, Tichondrius the Darkener, and Shandris Feathermoon Night Elf Archer, I couldn't wait to get them. I have to say, that although they are all very cool, they don't measure up to the previous batch. Blizzard went with a new manufacturer with these, and the quality just is not even close to the previous ones. If you're a Warcraft fanatic, they will be cool additions to your collection, but do what you can to get your hands on the hard to get, unfortunately discontinued, previous three: Thrall(Orc), Muradin Bronzebeard (human) and Furion Stormrage (elf). Those were gold where these are bronze. I only hope the next series will be more impressive.

Not worth the money. You can get better deals on [other retailer].

The cards I received were pure fun, great for reliving memories.

When I saw these baseball cards I jumped out of my seat. I thought it looked great, so I ordered them for my son. We got the package in the next day. THE CARDS WERE HORRIBLE. My son did not get anyone good. THEY WERE SAMPLE PACKS. You cant get anyone good in them. So please, do not order these packs

Like the others mentioned my daughter wanted this and only this for Christmas. She has wanted a my size barbie for 2 years so we finally gave in. Sadly, it has been returned. She was very excited to get it but found it very hard to play with. It has to be propped up or carefully stood on her feet and it doesn't sit down. The wings kept falling off and the outfit was very cheap. The slippers wouldn't stay on either. It's very sad that an item that costs so much is made so poorly and such a rip off. Shame on Mattel. They could do much better! These were on clearance at 70% off after Christmas. I'm glad we took ours back. Our daughter picked out 2 smaller items and is very happy with them at about 1/3 of the price.

This is a beautiful barbie with her new face and highlighted hair. The one I purchased does not have those durability issues like others have mentioned. She does stand up on her flat feet - it does take some balancing. Her hair could end up a mess, fortunately my little girl keeps the hair close-to perfect. In fact, many would be pleased to see Mattel produce a true long-haired MSB (not like those rapunzels with the hair extensions).

This was our 5 year old's one "Big" gift this year. While her brothers got lots of little presents, this was basically her only one because it was soooo expensive, and she wanted it so much! It is now March and we are headed out to [the store] to return this piece of junk. The doll is NOTHING like what is advertised. It does NOT stand on its' own. It stayed propped up in the corner of her closet from New Years' until last week, when she finally decided to try again to play with it. The crown had broken within 2 days of Christmas, and the hair was tangles mess almost from the second it let the box. The clothing was pathetically cheap and ill-fitting, both for the Barbie and the child! She decided to dress it in her pajamas last night, and when she lifted the arm to put into the sleeve, it ripped off. It is not just dislocated like the little Barbies sometimes get, but the vinyl arm is completely torn away from the socket. You can imagine how distressing this is to the 5 year old owner, and also to myself who was dunmb enougt to pay so much in the first place! DO NOT BUY THIS TOY!!!

This figure looks about thirty to forty pounds too thin to be Kelly Osbourne!

Though I'm fondest of the Ozzy and Sharon figures, Kelly's is the most versatile and colorful. Like all the other Osbourne action figures in this line, Kelly comes with a push-button "talking" base (three different bleeped quotes from the girl herself, batteries included), a handful of accessories (shoulder bag, natty purse, sunglasses, and a non-pooping/puking kitty), and is made from sturdy (non-flex) plastic.

Kelly has the most articulation of her clan with 8 points (ball joint neck stub, shoulders, wrists, waist and calves), and a sculpt that is fairly realistic and still fun. I particularly like the hair nubbins (think Lisa Simpson or Bjork with conditioner), the dimples and the color choices. Last but not least, Kelly's big footwear makes it easy to stand and pose her without the base.

I suppose this figure could be used in some kind of educational way, but why try ? These Osbourne family figures are toys tailor made for fans and collectors, and are among the very best items offered to date. I bought the complete set initially as a collectible to keep stored, but after checking out the great packaging and figure details I had to open them. I plan on buying a second set to show Mezco Toys my appreciation for doing a great job on this toy line.

The Waltz is one of the most graceful of the ballroom dances. Couples seem to glide across the floor with the ...one, two, three, ...one, two, three, ... rhythm that holds them in an enchanted embrace. Barbie and Ken show the elegance of this mid-1700's dance, that evolved because the new 3/4 beat in the music of Johann Strauss.

Barbie's jewelry is exquisitely designed in pink crystal. Ken is dressed in a tuxedo with tails. His head is slightly turned. In The Waltz, couples rarely look at each other as every movement of the body embraces the dance.

Fun - Barbie is beautiful in a pink chiffon gown accented with marabou. It's easy to imagine that she is Ginger Rodgers and her partner Fred Astair.

Durable - Mine will remain in perfect condition because I'm a collector. If a child plays with the set, the first thing to go will be the shoes, the rest will follow.

Educational - Can be used to teach a child about Strauss, the waltz and its rhythm compared to today's music, and the evolution of dance. The Waltz never goes out of style, it's just that so many people do not know how to dance it, and that provides another educational opportunity.

Truly one of the most beautiful giftsets.

Jude Deveraux The Raider Barbie and Ken Dolls Giftset - Limited Edition by Mattel

well maybe the toy ugly here but when you buy it the toy is cuter than ever to start my collection of the lollipop girls im going to buy this one first! then lulu of london then so on & so on. bye!

What were they thinking when they made this doll? Very corny! A dark skinned girl with bright hair and, uh, what's she wearing? Retro indian prostitute clothing? Yuck, this doll just sucks! Most times Lollipop Girls are cute, but this one's ugly! I prefer Cassie from California!
LP gurls Rule!!

The lollipop dolls' faces and figures are very nice, but what I hate are the outfits and hair. they are extremley tacky. take a look at bebe:a dark-skinned girl with neon green hair and a bright, 80's-type dress.... it just dosen't blend well.

definitly not junk. The best of all football cards for the past 15 years are all sent to you, with lots of hope of pulling everything good. Even if you're just starting out in collecting, get this great package, because this is filled with players that you've all heard of plus there all stars. Don't let the picture fool you; all of those great cards are included in this package. STAY AWAY, STAY FAR, FAR AWAY FROM OTHER PACKAGES THIS IS THE BEST ONE EVER. I am not disgusted with myself for having spent as much as I did on this .....

this is dumb you dont even get star cards you get people that got rejected and didnt even make it to the Nfl. this is a waste of money. if you dont belive me buy it see what happens. its junky junk junk Nfl cards

Utter junk. The worst rejects of football cards for the past 15 years are all sent to you, with no hope of pulling anything good whatsoever. Even if you're just starting out in collecting, get a different package, because this is filled with players that you've never heard of. Don't let the picture fool you; none of those caliber cards are included in this package. STAY AWAY, STAY FAR, FAR AWAY. I am disgusted with myself for having spent as much as I did on this .....

These figures are lame characters & no one wants them. What the heck are they doing on Amazon.com? With the money you would have to spend to get these junky figures, you could go buy some really nice GI Joe stuff at Toys R Us.

These vintage figures may "come complete with their original accessories", but since Wild Weasel and Cross Country were sold originally with vehicles... THEY DON'T HAVE ANY ACCESSORIES. If you buy this you'll drop $35 USD on 3 Joes, a helmet, and a gun. Ask yourself, are the figures worth $10 loose in unspecified condition ("collectible" isn't like "mint", it's the sort of thing you'd say if you didn't want people to know)? Of course not. Help put overpriced dealers out of business and just go bid for this sort of thing on eBay.

These figures are not nearly as valuable or rare as Brian's Toy's would have you believed, don't get suckered by this over-priced seller. Check out the Brian's Toys website, everything is wayyyyyy over priced.

This figure is my favorite toy becase he is durable you can bend him any way you want his detail is perfect and his orngesh strap is relly blue i recommend this toy to any lord of the rings fan ecspcialy if aragorn is your favorite charecter

I actually got this toy on clearance at Meijer for $2.30 - there were tons of them left because Aragorn's nose and face have black marks all over - like a toddler painted his features, and almost all of his swords were bent like a banana. I do not reccommend paying full price - check out your local supermarket for a clearance one.

Hello All,

I just got my 12" Aragorn Doll and there are several probelms.
First, the Aragorn doll I received looks nothing like the picture online. The clothes are completely different colors. There are splothces of paint on the dolls clothing and strings hanging from the doll in various locations, I think these are manufacturing mistakes and not an effect to make the doll look more rugged and lifelike (CHEAP)! Finally, the doll does look really, really, really cheap.

Second, the doll looks nothing like Aragoron from the movie. I do not recommend this product.

However, I intend check out the smaller 6" figures to see if they are of a higher quality.

The saga continues!
