A place to find what boys want, written, edited and produced by boys.
If you have kids, especially boys, you may have come across the remote control manta ray. Maybe because your beloved child was shoving a catalog in your face saying “Can we get it? Can we get it PLEASE?!”
I have to admit, it is a pretty cool toy. The ray is controlled by remote from up to 6 feet away and can go to a depth of 8 feet. The remote control is also waterproof up to 3 feet.
Can move forward, backward, turn left or right, do barrel rolls and even underwater loops.
Justin has started playing with his Transformers again lately. He said he forgot how much fun they are.
Transformers are great toys because they can be more than one thing (a robot and a vehicle). There is a lot more opportunity for imaginative play with one of these.
Optimus Prime is the leader of the Transformers and one of the most popular. He has snap-out energy swords and engine revving and racing sounds when in tough truck mode.
Launch foam darts up to 40 feet with the Blast Bow. The bow is 22″ tall and comes with a clip-on dart quiver and three foam darts.
Get two of these and let your kids and their friends have a war. They can even play in the house since the darts are made of soft foam.
What is every kid’s dream water toy? A waterscooter of course.
Sea-Doo’s Dolphin Waterscooter is good for the pool or lake, can go up to 2 miles per hour and has an automatic shutoff function.
The Dolphin runs on a rechargeable battery that can last up to 1.5 hours.
Here’s the game we’re taking with us on vacation tomorrow. It’s called Police Blockade. It comes with a booklet that has 60 different challenges in it, each more difficult than the next.
You have to first place the buildings and “bad guy” car and then figure out how to arrange all the other pieces so the bad guy car is trapped. Not as easy as it sounds.
This is a good thinking game and it’s portable. There is a clear plastic lid that fits over the board and it’s all held together by an elastic strap.
Justin spent some of his own money today and picked up Up the video game for Nintendo DS.
He said the reason he chose it is because on the back it says you can “compete in aerial dog flight combat.” That is where the dogs are flying planes and in Justin’s words..”everyone is shooting at each other.”
Once again, the game that has shooting wins. Justin says if you get Up for Nintendo Wii you can have up to 4 people competing the the dog flight combat.
Toys that shoot water are really popular with the guys right now. All their friends love to get together at the pool or here in the neighborhood and have water wars.
The Blaster Board is great for the pool. It provides two things kids love. The shooting capability and of course, the shield for when your friend shoots back!
My son’s friend had one of these and now my son wants one, too. I can see why. Larry Lobster is cute!
Larry is a plush lobster. He’s fun because he’s not your usual plush toy.
Larry is a 12 inch long red lobster with claws, small legs and antennae and shiny black eyes.
Justin reaaaallly wants the Banzai Twin Barrel Blaster. Why do you think that is?
Hmmm, maybe its the pressurized power stream technology trigger, or the oscillating blasting power for extra soaking, or the fact that it will shoot up to 20 feet. I’m sure it’s one of those things…
What could be better than sliding right into a giant toothy shark’s mouth? Nothing, really.
The Banzai 3D Shark Bite Slide is 18 feet of watery fun. The shark is designed with 3D graphics, so when you wear the enclosed 3D goggles, you get to experience the thrill of a great white coming towards you! You finish with a big splash after you’re swallowed.
