Matchbox Big Boots
Blaze Brigade Fire Truck & extra 3 pack of figures
Price: £24.99
+ £7.99
Suitable from: 3yrs+
Initial Reaction: I knew straight away that my 3 year
old boy would love this! A fire engine and action figures – can't really go
wrong!
Pros:
Well made, different actions to keep them entertained.
Cons:
Comes with some really tiny accessories for the figures to
hold, which will inevitably get lost.
Value for money? It seems in-line with prices of
other big toys so I think this is reasonable. It's well made and I think it
will keep him entertained for a long time, so yes, it's good value.
Overall Reaction: A huge success! The 'big boots'
figures are unusual looking; they can't fall over, like weebles they just ping
back up. There are various places for them to stand on the fire truck and
different levers to launch them up into the air which adds a new dynamic to a
normal fire truck toy. I asked my son which was his favourite thing, but already
knew the answer – the missile launcher on the top which fires out a plastic
thing, that's supposed to be water. He loves having target practice and
shooting the big boots figures with it!
He has since seen an advert for a Dinosaur Squad big boots
toy which he now wants too, I might be tempted to get it for Christmas because
they really are good toys. Thumbs up!
