Angry Birds: Knock On Wood Game Now in 3D
In: Character Toys
4 Dec 2011Knock on Wood. Can't play Angry Birds because you can't afford a phone or tablet to play it on? Or everyone else is hogging it and won't let you play? Or are you just not satisfied with the game and need something more? Missing a dimension of entertainment that the game is just lacking?
Worry no more. Hey look! It's a new 3D version of Angry Birds with the Knock on Wood game!
This game has it all. As in, the favorite past-time of kids everywhere -- knocking things down. Now feel the anger in real life as you stack the pigs up and knock them down with your favorite angry birds. Compete with others at the same time. No more single player hogging. This game is for 2 to 4 players.
If you like to build things, improve your skills at balancing the structures that pigs like to hang out in. This game will test your mettle. If you think flinging a bird is easy, then try it in real life. You might be surprised how different adjusting for the wind can make your shot go wide. (You might want to play indoors...)
Angry Birds Knock on Wood Game
For ages 5 and up. Play consists of drawing cards from any of four levels, building a structure on the card, and then knocking it down. To play, you draw a card--the higher the card the more points possible to earn. Give it to the next player to build that card's castle. Then, use the bird launcher to shoot it down with the birds indicated on the Mission card.
With the Angry Birds Knock on Wood game you can have a lot of fun with the included pieces. Of course the real fun is stacking and building anything you can find, like dominoes, playing cards, your mom's fine china, anything that you can fling a bird at that will make a satisfying mess.
Top 10 LEGO Star Wars Sets
In: Kits and Models
1 Dec 2011LEGO Star Wars Sets that are Popular Right Now
LEGO and Star Wars is probably the best combination since peanut butter and jelly. Or peanut butter and chocolate. Peanut butter and LEGO's don't mix though. The peanut butter gets stuck inside the interior of the blocks and doesn't come out easily at all. Plus your dog starts swallowing all your pieces, then you are stepping on LEGO's out in the yard. I don't suggest it, stick with LEGO's and Star Wars.
10.) LEGO Star Wars Luke's Landspeeder
Vroom-a-zoom-zoom. Luke Skywalker's landspeeder comes in at number 10. Assemble and take this Tatooine's teen's convertible out for a joyride. Comes with Luke Skywalker, Obi-wan Kenobi, C3PO, RD-D2, Storm Trooper (Sand Trooper configuration), and security drone mini-figs. The only disadvantage to a landspeeder is that you can't 'accidentally' run over Storm Trooper feet as you take off after using your Jedi mind trick to get out of a ticket. Darn antigravity. Click here for current price.
9.) LEGO Star Wars Imperial V-wing Starfighter
This menacing looking tool of the Galactic Empire will let you do battle with Rebel Scum and look cool doing it. The LEGO Star Wars Imperial V-wing Starfighter canopy's opens and wings rotate into different configurations. Comes with Imperial droid and black flight suit wearing pilot. Black is slimming and looks good on bad guys. Click here for current price.
8.) LEGO Star Wars Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator
As seen in Episode 1, The Phantom Menace, here is Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator. It has folding wings, a hatch that opens, and a landing ramp. Includes 4 minifigures of Darth Maul, Captain Panaka, Padmé and Qui-Gon Jinn. Also comes with a Sith speeder and a probe droid. Now you can pretend the coolest character in the first film doesn't die right away after a few scenes while Jar Jar Binks continues to live. (Jar Jar Binks not included...thankfully.) Click here for current price.
7.) LEGO Star Wars The Battle of Naboo
This LEGO Star Wars The Battle of Naboo set features 8 battle droids with blasters, 2 droid pilots, Jar Jar Binks and Gungan scout figures. Aaahhhh! Jar Jar Binks is included in this LEGO set! The lovable alien everyone loves to hate on. Time to roll out the droids and take down Jar Jar for good this time! Or just roll out some droids, with the 8 you get with this set, this will allow you all sorts of battle droid scenarios to play out. Roger Roger! Click here for current price.
6.) LEGO Star Wars Mandalorian Battle Pack
Pit these Mandalorians against Clone Troopers and you have yourself a good time. This Mandalorian Battle Pack comes with a Mandalorian assassin with a sniper rifle and 3 other Mandalorian troopers. Equiped with a blaster turret and a speeder, this LEGO pack can supplement any LEGO play time with excellent Mandalorian fun. Click here for current price.
5.) LEGO Star Wars Sith Nightspeeder
From the Clone Wars episodes you have a Sith Nightspeeder. It designed to carry two mini-figures and has a 'flick' missile. The cool thing is that it comes with Anakin, Asajj Ventress and Savage Opress, plus their lightsabers. Reports say that this LEGO kit is very easy to build and very 'swooshable'. Click here for current price.
4.) LEGO Star Wars Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter
Here is the Jedi Master Plo Koon's starfighter from the Clone Wars cartoons. The wings are movable and comes with a Plo Kloon minifigure as well as a R7-D4 astromech droid. Also another cool thing to go along with the cool blue and white color scheme on Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter, this thing has an ejection seat! Plo Koon is flying everywhere, inside and outside his ship. Click here for current price.
3.) LEGO Star Wars Clone Trooper Battle Pack
You can never have enough Clone Troopers. Especially in a combat situation. But when in line to buy theatre tickets, you'll think the same guy is still at the head of the line and you'll never get in to see the show in time. In this pack you get 1 clone commander, 2 new bomb squad troopers and 1 new ARF trooper minifigures. These have the fancy combat gear, so you can tell them apart. Comes with a speeder for quick attacks and to impress the ladies on movie night. Click here for current price.
2.) LEGO Star Wars Snow Trooper Army Pack
The Empire Strikes Back was arguably the best movie of the Star Wars saga. The opening battle at the Rebel base on Hoth helped set the stage for an excellent movie. Snowtroopers are cooler than regular Stormtroopers. Just like Sandtroopers are cooler than a regular Stormtrooper too. I would hate being a regular Stormtrooper. Even clone troopers get unique looks to their gear than regular Stormtroopers. Much better to be blasted on Hoth than blown up in the Death Star for sure. This set comes with 2 snowtroopers, 1 Imperial officer and 1 AT-AT driver with new helmet minifigures. Also comes with a snow speeder and a little battle station doo-hickey. Click here for current price.
1.) LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon
A well deserved number one spot goes to the Millennium Falcon LEGO set with a whopping 1,254 pieces. Probably the fastest and most awesome ship to fly the Galactic skies, the Millennium Falcon LEGO kit is awesome itself. The Millennium Falcon features opening hull, detailed interior, twin flick missiles, rotating laser cannons and detachable cockpit cover. You build it, and the hull easily opens up for incredible details inside to go along with the attractive outside. Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca, Ben Kenobi, Princess Leia Organa and Darth Vader minifigures are also included in the set. Probably the coolest LEGO kit released recently. Click here for current price.
Inflatable Flying Shark: Everyone Back into the Water
In: Inflatable Toys
22 Nov 2011Inflatable flying sharks! No one is safe. There is nowhere to hide. It used to be only the water was unsafe. Now they will get you in the air.
Sharks. Mother@!&%! flying sharks!
Air Swimmers Inflatable Flying Shark
You can also get a flying clownfish. I mean, that is kinda cool, right? Sure, it will get you beat up by all your friends, but at least you have a clownfish to play with.
But come to think of it...what is scarier than a shark? A clown! Yeah, I'd still have to get the shark. It would be less scary than a clown floating around my room at night.
Years you've waited. Tears have streamed down your face longing for the day. Day after day, sitting around being bored with nothing dangerously flying by your head. Luckily today, it is easy as pie to get an inflatable Air Swimmers shark to fly in the air.
When I was born, the dream of piloting a shark through the air was science fiction. Now look how far we have progressed in so short of a time. Now we have flying sharks. All our dreams have come true. That makes me think; what else is there to do now?
I guess I could just keep flying my shark until something else comes up.
Top 5 Banana Themed Toys You Can Have Fun With
In: Accessories
20 Nov 2011The banana. Probably everyone's favorite fruit to pronounce, even if it isn't their favorite fruit to eat. But are they fun to play with? Let's find out.
1.) The Banana
Grown in bunches, the Cavendish banana is loved the world over for it's convenient packaging and delicious taste. But you can also play with it.
You can throw it like a boomerang. But it won't come back. Usually splits open and makes a squishy mess, yet is still an effective deterrent with someone armed with a squirt gun.
The curve of the banana makes it easy to place on top of your head, so you are able to wear your banana hat all day long.
You can stick it into things. Like your ear or belly button.
The peel is renowned for it's slipperiness. Lay this on the sidewalk and snicker as pedestrians' feet fly over their heads as they fall on their butts. Do not attempt outside of 1920-30's black and white films though.
We have only peeled away a few of the hidden uses here of the banana. It is up to you to discover the rest. The banana: The toy you can also eat!
2.) Bananagrams
The anagram game that will drive you bananas. If you like word games, then this banana shaped play on words game is for you. Bananagrams
3.) The Banana Phone
The Banana Phone Headset
4.) LEGO Banana Balance
Some think it is hot in the jungle and picking the best banana's is tricky work. LEGO's Banana Balance
5.) Learning Mates Monkey Math
I know it's not cool, but you can actually learn with this toy. Learning Mates Monkey Math
Bonus Banana
It's a banana. No, it's a shark! A Sharkbanana
Secrets of the Harry Potter Illuminating Wand
In: Accessories
15 Oct 2011Whether you admit to it or not, the wizarding world of Harry Potter is cool. (Everyone secretly wishes that magic was real.) To be cool, you need to be a wizard. And to be a wizard, you need a wand. How else are you going to get a girlfriend like Hermione?
Even with a wand, probably the only safe spell you can cast without being arrested is Lumos, the illuminating spell. But now you are in luck. Because now it's possible to do just that and have your wizardly fun safely. These wands below provide you with that ability.
Harry Potter Illuminating Wand
Hermione Granger Illuminating Wand
Even Ron Weasley has an illuminating wand.
Wave the wand and the light goes on.
Wave it again, and it turns off!
Wands measure around 14 inches in length.
Stylish and sleek, these wands will go with any outfit, dressed in the latest Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, or Hufflepuff fashions or not. Amaze your friends with a little bit of wand magic. Stupefy your pets as they wonder what they heck you are doing to make that light go on and off. Hide it up your sleeve, then presto! you've got a light when the school bully locks you in your locker.
This would work great if you are out for Halloween or cosplaying at a convention or just wandering around out in the dark of night. Heck, you don't even have to be a Harry Potter witch or wizard. You can be any derelict witch or wizard and use this wand. Or even a pirate, who's found a lost wand in a treasure booty.
The light is very bright when you turn it all the way up. You can adjust the brightness up or down with a hidden button that's disguised into the wand. Takes two AAA batteries. The illuminating wands come with a nice display case to store it when not in use.
The practical among us will think it's a flashlight. Lumos! But it's a cool flashlight in the shape of a Harry Potter wand. Perfect for all your wizarding fun practicing spells. Just be careful and don't poke your eye out.
What other people think:
Most people love the look of it, as it looks just like the wands in the movies. Looks and feels great in the hand. Doesn't seem fragile. The flashlight function is a hit so you can see in the dark.
Don't like that it is a little bit bigger than the wands in the movies to fit the electronics and batteries inside.

The old classics are always the best. Like Gamera monster toys. Now you can find updated versions that capture the same style as in the movies themselves. Keeping the same character in a modern form.
It's hard to show your love for an adorable classic movie monster when there are limited ways to express your admiration. There's nothing worse than loving a classic Japanese movie monster with all your heart and not being able to at least play with a cool scale model toy of that very same monster that you have so much love for.
But now your pain is over with this Revoltech Gamera Monster! This is the 1967 movie version. For the classic Gamera lover. The figure is true to life, as it really looks like a guy in a monster suit -- not that there is anything wrong with that.
This figure is fully pose-able with 22 different points of articulation to put Gamera in almost any pose a turtle can do. The highly detailed painted textures will look good at any angle. Who's a handsome monster turtle? That's right, it's you Gamera!
Change the parts around and put Gamera into UFO mode to fly him around your dog's head. (On a string or in your hand, does not actually fly itself.) Comes with a cool fire breath effect and display stand. One of the coolest Gamera toys around.
With this Gamera toy, your Rodan or Godzilla toys will now have someone tough enough to fight against. Provides hours of entertainment and fun for any Gamera fan.
What other people are saying:
Most people love how this toy looks plus how easy it is to pose and the extra accessories. But some don't like how small it is (5 in.).
If you are a classic movie monster fan, than this might look good on your desk or shelf. Get this great looking Gamera monster toy before they are all sold out.
Size: 5 inches tall with 22 points of articulation
Includes:
- UFO Mode Effect Parts x 4
- UFO Mode Head Cover
- Fire Breath Effect Parts
- Flying Display Stand
- Nameplate
I am so angry! I want to just punch this toy. I want to kick it. I want to shake it. I want to pound it. I want to give it an atomic elbow drop from my couch. I want to shoot myself from a giant sling shot into your face! Aaaarrrrrghhhh! You make me so angry you green stupid piglet!
If you, or someone you know, suffers from these symptoms, order this Angry Birds plush toy as soon as possible.
This toy will relieve:
- Game related stress
- Late nights up
- Missed appointments
- The dreaded 'Fingeritis'
- Divorce
- Starvation
- Loneliness
- Crossed-eyes
- Bad hair
- Smelly pants
- And other symptoms too gruesome to mention
Take your frustrations out in real life. This pig stuffed toy from the Angry Birds game is the perfect stress reliever. Punch it. Kick it. Smoosh it. Love it, for all I care. Because you will love it. It will be your new best friend. It will take away all the demons. Stroke it's fluffy skin. Relax, everything will be OK.
Now stuff this pig in your armpit and squeeze! Listen to his muffled cries from the game. That will show him!
*Warning: Do not use in sight of birds. Angry or otherwise.

Star Wars Darth Vader Vinyl Bobble-head Figure
17 Jun 2011At first I was like "Aaaah, that's Stewie Griffin as Darth Vader". Then I was like, "Aaaah, that's a bobble-head too. That's an evening full of entertainment."
But Funko has a whole series of Star Wars booble-head figures similar (see below) to this, so I'm sure any semblance to the Family Guy Star Wars episodes is purely coincidental.
This cute, but still kind of menacing looking Darth Vader vinyl bobble-head figure is only around $10 and stands up at around 3.75" tall.
If you are a Darth Vader, Star Wars, or bobble-head fan, you've got it made! If you are only 1 or 2 out of 3...hey, how can you pass up something as good as this?
If you do qualify as a Star Wars or bobble-head fan, the fun doesn't stop with Darth Vader. No, it keeps going with even more characters. As I mentioned before, there is an entire line up of Star Wars bobble-headed characters.
Here are few pictured above. Click here to see them all.
If you don't like any of these, there must be something seriously wrong with you. Get back into bed then come out the other side. Or go for a nice long walk and clear your head by bobbing it back and forth. Or check out these other fun Funko products specifically made for your certain form of entertainment.
Makinami Mari Evangelion 2.0 Figma
20 Feb 2011Evangelion 2.0 introduced a new character: Makinami Mari.
Here you see her decked out in her stylishly pink plugsuit. Looking ready to go out on the town, studying in the library, or kick some invading alien ass.
This also comes with a plug entry plug accessory so you can sit her down and get her ready for some action.
Figma figures are well known for their high quality and figure pose-ability.
This includes multiple accessories, facial expressions and a base for multiple poses. The Makinami Mari figure stands 6 inches tall and is all that and a bag of chips (bag of chips not included).
Magnet Balls – I Take Them Black
In: Accessories
5 Feb 2011Everybody loves those little magnet balls that you can stick together and create a plethora of shapes or anything else you can make with magical sticky round things. You mostly see them in super reflective silver chrome. Masquerading as common boring ball bearings that stick together, like glue, without the adhesive.
I always thought "Neato. Maybe I'll get some someday." Then I saw these in a glossy black paint job and I thought "Slick. I have to get these." I think because they remind me of my black Lamborghini I drive around inside my mind with a bikini model. Perhaps because they are a little more out of the ordinary looking and dangerous (if you stick them up your nose.)
You get 216 nifty little magnet balls in a collectors tin. Like you'll ever put them back in the tin. These little balls will be stuck on everything metallic around the house or inside the vacuum cleaner if you lose one in the lush shag carpeting.
I think a lot of people create little rings, necklaces, bracelets with them and give them to their robotic girlfriends for Valentines Day or tiaras for their cats. If I had one of those that would be so cool. All I have is an imaginary Lamborghini and a bikini model, nothing like a cool robotic girlfriend. I can't even imagine something that cool or romantic.
By the way, they also come in Rainbow flavors, so you can craft your double rainbows and ponder their meanings. Rather extreme for my refined tastes though. I think I'll stick with simple black or go crazy and order silver and black together.
