Ben 10 is one of Andrew’s favorite shows, but he doesn’t get to watch it too often. So, when making this video he was a little light on remembering the names of the aliens. I wasn’t that much better. Playmates Toys sent us the Ben 10 Alien Creation Chamber toy for free to play with and review. This was a toy that Andrew took to at Sweet Suite. We had to pull him away and when he finally did leave he had a ton of little aliens to enjoy. The opinions that are expressed in this review are our own.
At Sweet Suite there were so many toys and it was the first time that I was able to bring the kids. While they occasionally got hung up at one table or another they generally moved along to the next. Not when we got to the table that had multiple Ben 10 Alien Creation Chambers and a table full of alien parts! Both Andrew and Eva were drawn to this table and enjoyed making alien after alien. Andrew liked it so much we left him playing (within earshot and eyesight) while we went a couple of tables down. He had a grand old time playing with this and so I had to ask for one for review. Once we unboxed it and made the video below, he continued to play with it and make alien after alien.
I think we missed a key thing in the video and I will explain it a bit through the photos below.
With the Ben 10 alien Creation Chamber you can get parts from aliens like Heatblast, Fourarms, DiamondHead, Overflow, Shock Rock and Stinkfly. There are a few that I cannot remember and that was evident in the video. I want to point out something more grave an error then forgetting a alien’s name and that is how I am pulling apart the aliens. DO NOT DO THAT! The green tool that is included in the Creation Chamber and each Two pack of aliens is specially designed so that you can put that in the back of one of the aliens and pop apart all the parts. Pulling the parts apart could cause them to break and for connections to get very loose. Don’t do it. Learn from my mistake.
Something else that we discovered after doing the review was that there is a compartment on the back of the chamber that you can use to house the spare parts. There are spots for arms and legs, heads and torsos. The only think is those characters with wings and Cannonbolt’s head/torso combination do not fit anywhere specific. You have to put them in the empty space of the compartment.
