For fans of the movie Bolt, this is an ideal gift. My personal favourite character from the film, Rhino, within his trusty plastic hamster ball. Rhino is rolling thunder, a pint-sized action hero in the making!

Re-enact your favourite scenes with Rhino the Hamster with this fun motorised toy. You just flick the switch on Rhino’s tummy, pop him into his transparent 12.5cm ball and watch him move around just like he does in the movie!

Rhino is available from thetoyshop.com for just £11.

To old for disney, but too young for MP3s? Meet the M Player!

Jill — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 08:20:15 +0000

iRiver and Disney introduce their new creation: The M Player! This officially endorsed product is shaped like the world’s most famous mouse, and is so small in size it can fit into even the tiniest kid’s pocket. It has a diameter of only 30mm and a weight of 18g, so while this player may get you noticed, you’ll barely notice it’s there. Not only that, it’s super easy to use to, and has enough functions to make sure it’s a great player as well as a must have fashion accessory! You control the player by twisting the ears. The left controls the volume and the right is for fast forward and rewind. It has about 9 hours playback on a fully charged battery and a pretty impressive 1GB storage which is enough for about 250 tracks (or the entire High School Musical discography)

The shape and bright colours alone show that this player is aimed at kids – and I think it’ll be a great stocking filler this year. Available now from Advanced MP3 Players for just £29.99

Wall.e Construct a Bot

Jill — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:46:51 +0000

You’ve seen the film, now build the bot. Loveable WALL.E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-class) was left behind when mankind left earth and is looking for a new friend to play with. This easy to use construction toy lets you build your own version of WALL.E or mix and match the parts to make a brand new robot. All the parts connect magnetically so can be reassembled again and again, and the joints are fully articulated for those kids that would rather play than build.
