Hasbro sent us some of their Forces of Destiny Toys for free to play with and Review. Opinions are 100% our own. Affiliat eLinks are contained within this post.The Forces of Destiny line of toys is based on the web series on YouTube. These are a series of shorts about the women of the Star Wars Universe. The dolls are not only the women, however. There are droids and there is even a Kylo Ren doll and a Chewbacca one. But, for the most part these are female figures. Much of the voicework on the series is done by the people who play those characters in the movies and on the cartoons like Star Wars Rebels.
We received a Rey figure and then two Princess Leia ones. I let Eva keep two of the figures and are including the third one in our annual Christmas is for Kids donation. Eva chose to keep the Rey figure and the Princess Leia with Wicket set. When I told her who played Wicket, Warwick Davis, and that he also played Professor Flitwick in Harry Potter movies she flipped out. Eva is a huge Harry Potter fan and Star Wars is her second favorite. Finding a bridge between the two worlds made her day. She helped me make a little video about the toys.
We received two Angry Birds Star Wars Telepods sets to try out and review. Opinions about the products are 100% my own.
I have not played Angry Birds in a few years. I used to be pretty into the game and then there were more and more versions so I stopped for a while and a while turned into a few years. When I was approached to check out these Angry Birds Star Wars Telepods I was intrigued. So I said sure and two sets arrived at my house.
I admit, I didn’t know very much about this toy/app and was interested in hearing more about it and getting a hands on look. Once I opened the packages and started playing, I got it, it made sense to me. I play a couple of games where physical characters are imported into the game for play and this is very similar in this vein except you can actually play with the telepods figures because there is no technology inside them that can get broken. In fact you are encouraged to launch the figures at other plastic pieces and figures in order to knock them over. Continue reading Review: Angry Birds Star Wars Telepods→
