A Merry Christmas From Hasbro {Giveaway} {2016 Holiday Gift Guide}

by

Part of the fun of Christmas for me is shopping for my children and choosing toys for them that I know are going to light up their faces. Because their interests and preferences change from year to year, there are always new channels of adventure for me to explore. Each year’s Christmas shopping opens new opportunities for me to create new levels of excitement for them to enjoy.

Star Wars is a favored theme for my little guy this year. Thankfully, Hasbro has created Playskool Heroes Star Wars Galactic Heroes Galactic Rivals, a collection of ten Star Wars heroes that are the perfect size for my son to enjoy. These figures are recommended for ages 3-7 and the collection is made up of all the favorite galactic figures; Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Yoda, Chewbacca, and more. Small and simple, but so realistic, I can’t wait to see what kind of adventures my son will dream up to share with them.

Also from Hasbro comes Star Wars The Force Awakens RC BB-8, a droid, Star Wars fans will know, belonging to Poe Dameron, a pilot for the Resistance. BB-8 is a round-shaped character that will roll any which-way, and comes with its own remote control. It comes in two parts, the BB-8 body and the BB-8 head, both remote control activated. Accompanying the droid are instructions for its use, and it is also equipped to make the typical sounds that a droid will make.

Star Wars BladeBuilders Spin Action Lightsaber by Hasbro will put my little boy right into the thick of things! He can pretend to be right there with his favorite Star Wars heroes, doing battle with and for them with his electronic lightsaber. What sets this lightsaber apart from lightsabers manufactured by other toy companies is that the BladeBuilder will spin when my son attaches the 360 spinning connector lightsaber hilt that comes with it. To use the electronic lightsaber alone all he has to do is flick it open and it is ready for whatever adventure is coming his way. The Hasbro Star Wars BladeBuilders Spin Action Lightsaber can be tailored to go with other BladeBuilder lightsabers, also sold by Hasbro.

Hasbro has come out with a Star Wars Interactech Imperial Stormtrooper Figure that not only speaks 65 different phrases, but makes sound effects as well. In addition, this Stormtrooper is equipped with a motion sensor that can detect certain movements. Nothing could seem more real! He comes with a blaster accessory that makes him look even more true to his character.

Coming in right in line with Star Wars Figures and their accessories is Hasbro’s Transformers Robots in Disguise Power Surge Optimus Prime and Aerobolt. As do their predecessors, these Transformers have the ability to transform into weapons; however, they are also equipped with a little bit more. Optimus Prime can join with Aerobolt in order to activate his “power surge” mode. The power surge then enables him to use his wings to rise into the air to approach the battle from above. This Transformers figure also can do battle in four different modes. Its Mini-con Weaponizer Aerobolt Figure, which is included, comes equipped with lights and sounds, phrases, cannons, and wings. These are activated when the Weaponizer Aerobot Figure is connected to Optimus Prime or to any other Star Wars figure that can be bought separately.

Hasbro hasn’t forgotten about little girls at Christmas this year! The Dohvinci Secret Sparkle Jewelry Box Kit is right up my daughter’s alley. The jewelry box is filled with wonderful compartments to hold whatever she wants to keep in it, whether it be her favorite jewelry, craft items, or small toys, and even features a mirror and a secret drawer for her own personal use. Included with the box is a Styler tool that can be loaded with Decho Pop Color from any of the four Decho Pop Color Tubes that also come with the set, and she can decorate the box with any design she chooses, all in 3D. The Styler provided is adjustable. She simply fills it with her color of choice and begins her artwork, making her decorating even more fun! The set also includes six squish in gems that she can place anywhere to add to the “bling” of her creation. An inspiration guide is included to complete the set that helps to spark my daughter’s imagination when beginning work on her new creation. This gift of creativity provides little girls with opportunities to allow their imaginations to soar.

Another winning gift from Hasbro for my little girl is the Disney Princess Cinderella’s Magical Transforming Carriage. This is a beautifully decked out carriage, just right for a princess, which, with a simple turn of the top, goes from pumpkin to elegance. Included in the set is the transforming carriage, horse, two rigging items, and horse’s bridle. My daughter can change the pumpkin into a carriage with a simple turn on the top. Once she places her doll (not included) inside, she is on her way to meet her prince. At the stroke of twelve (according to my little girl’s watch!) she switches the carriage back into a pumpkin. And the story of Cinderella comes to life in a child’s imagination all over again! And again, and again…
