If you are a Star Wars fan and you think you’ll enjoy fighting the evil characters then this toy could definitely be for you. You will need a TV with AV inputs and an RF adaptor in order for the game to work. You will also need 4 AA batteries, these are not included.
Using the Light Saber provided, you can fight alongside your favourite characters such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn. You can fight the enemies such as The Emperor, Darth Maul and Darth Vader in many exciting battles. You will need to learn some Jedi skills if you want to beat this lot!
The toy is an interactive game and uses wireless technology to interact with the TV, all you need to do is plug the training droid into your TV, follow the adventures and start swinging your Light Saber.
When apple invented the iPod I didn’t think music technology could get any better but I was wrong. I have just discovered the iKaraoke; an all in one microphone processor that allows you to sing along with the favourite tunes on your iPod. You simply plug the device into your iPod and select the songs you want to sing along to, you can even plug in and play the whole lot on your stereo so the whole family can hear your beautiful voice!
The iKaraoke is made by Griffin Technology who specialise in manufacturing hardware and software products for the Mac and other popular brands.
The popular Baby Born doll has been around for a very long time but the doll’s recommended age group is usually over the age of 3 years. Well now there’s a ‘My Little Baby Born’ - Baby Born’s little sister who can be looked after and played with by a younger audience of 1 year and above. My Little Baby Born has a soft body but is still able to go in the bath so I think she is a great idea for younger children.
She is available at Amazon.co.uk for as little as £9.74 but she is currently only available at Amazon.com from a seller at $49.99 which is rather expensive.
The Wowwee Roboreptile is a robotic reptile that is able to interact with its surroundings and is an extremely advanced piece of technology for a children’s toy. The reptile is programmed to be fully alert and aggressive, drowsy or unresponsive. The creature is sound and touch sensitive therefore his surroundings will decide whether he’s a harmless reptile or an aggressive monster. For this reason, the toy isn’t suitable for anyone aged 3 or below. You are able to calm roboreptile by feeding him special electronic food.
There are different modes the roboreptile can operate in; firstly, you are in charge and you use the remote to directly control the movements of the toy. There is also the ‘free roam’ option where you allow roboreptile to roam free. You will be surprised at the number of movements he can make; he can walk at a number of speeds, jump, move his tail, shake and make biting movements.
The toy is currently selling at Amazon.com for $59.99 reduced from $199.99 - that’s a 50% discount.

For even more fun, the back of the box has targets so you can practice your aiming. The best place to practice is probably in our garden, that way you have some open space for Batman to blast his projectiles.
The figure comes fully dressed in his grey suit with a black cape and black Batman mask. The Ultra-Blaster gun is quite large and comes with three blaster compartments. See Amazon.com.
