Doctor Who - Electronic Sonic Screwdriver

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Collectables
from: Character Options

September 07, 2005
I got this as a stocking filler for my 7 year old daughter. It ended up being the most played with toy she got on Christmas day! If only I'd known beforehand I needn't have spent a fortune on all the other presents!
The wipe clean pad with invisible ink and UV light work well. Only problem is the detachable nibs tend to get detached and left lying around. Batteries were included - that alone probably covered the cost as it was reduced before Chtristmas!

Doctor Who - 5" Flight Control Tardis (Electronic)

This is a great toy, whoever designed it must have done it through the eyes of a child. The detail is impressive and so is the functionality. I think it offered great value for money and I think its great!

In The Night Garden - Talking Plush Igglepiggle

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Collectables
from: Hasbro


I bought this for my 2 year old nephew. He is a BIG fan of in the night garden and loves iggle piggle (or pigglepiggle as my nephew calls it).

Iggle piggle goes everywhere with him - I can safely say that it is most definitely favorite toy right now.

It makes lots of typical iggle piggle noises and sings a few songs, the blanket is detachable so you might have to keep an eye on it to save it from getting lost.

Because it is plush it is prone to getting a bit grubby - but then again that doesn't seem to bother my nephew. We not tried cleaning it so I can't say how successful that would be.

Doctor Who - The Master Laser Screwdriver

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Collectables
from: Character Options


I bought this screwdriver for my little boy's 7th birthday. He played with it for 20 minutes before it stopped working altogether. No sound, no light. It was then impossible to access the batteries and the trigger stopped working. This is absolute rubbish and I was the one who had to deal with my little boy sobbing on his birthday. It is not fit for purpose and I totally agree with the reviews made by Joyce Rowe and I holden. My other little boy owns the sonic screwdriver and has had it for months without any problems. I think the master laser screwdriver should be withdrawn until they sort out the problems with it.

LEGO Creator 6167 LEGO Deluxe Brick Box

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Collectables
from: LEGO


I have to admit that I found this rather fun. I bought it for my little girl, who has outgrown her duplo bricks. You can make allsorts with it (literally, if you are that way inclined!) and it also comes with a guide to a load of suggested models.

I ignored the guide book and built my girl a car. You get a few wheels etc so it can actually be pushed around. I wish my parents had got me this sort of stuff when I was a kid. I got handmedowns though, with all the good pieces already lost.

Um, enough about me. My daughter loves it. The only slight criticism is that the supplied baseplate is a bit small. That really is a minor quibble though. There is an awful lot of lego in this box.

Doctor Who The Doctor's Fob Watch

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Collectables
from: Character Options


From about five feet away the watch looks quite good, the detailing on the front is well moulded and it generally looks quite real and solid, indeed from five feet the watch looks as it does in the photograph above; don't be fooled this is the best it will ever look.

When you get close enough to actually touch it and pick it up, the cheap slightly shiny grey plastic creaks in your hand, belying the flimsy construction.

The front of the watch is opened with a difficult to reach, loose fitting plastic stud on the top of the adjustment dial, which itself is moulded into the main body and does nothing, revealing the face of the watch, which conspires to be shadowy and difficult to read. The door itself is thin and the hinge ... Read More:

In The Night Garden - Mini Plush Makka Pakka

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Collectables
from: Hasbro


I bought both my toddlers a makka pakka but the youngest likes to call him makka makka (very cute). They are very tough and very much loved by my children. I expected them to be tiny but are a good size. Great buy for in the night garden fans.
