Top Toys for Boys from Spin Master

Toys for Boys spin master wish list


 

Dear Santa, 

We’ve been good!!

When the boys started putting together their Santa lists, I started noticing a theme. They are moving on from ‘little boy’ toys (sniff) and are definitely showing an interested in big boy toys that can move and have a tech element. So I started researching some of these too and even I was blown away, these toys for big boys are pretty darn cool! And then I noticed that they are all made under one awesome toy umbrella – Spin Master! 

Spin Master definitely bring the WOW factor to the toy table!

 

Check out  4 of our Top Toys from Spin Master for Big Boys!

Air Hogs Shadow Launcher

The Air Hogs Shadow Launcher is a cool looking ground vehicle for conquering indoor obstacles. With the push of a button, the bay doors open revealing a stealth helicopter. Increase the throttle and fly away with an easy to fly gyro-stabilized helicopter. The Air Hogs Shadow Launcher is the ultimate 2 in 1 combo for limitless adventures!

This one was on the top of my middle boys list and with good reason. Not only is this a pretty cool remote control truck, but the top opens up and a HELICOPTER launches out of it! He won’t stop talking about how amazing that is! This video says it all, there is no where else to go, but UP!

 Air Hogs X Wing Starfighter

Take on the Empire with the real flying Remote Control X-Wing from Air Hogs! Fly into attack position as a Rebel Alliance Pilot and experience the thrill of Star Wars outdoors! The X-Wing uses true ducted fans embedded in its wings to power its flight letting you speed through the canyons of the Death Star as you recreate your favorite battle scenes from Star Wars. The X-Wing Starfighter uses 2.4GHz communication for superior control and delivers a flying range of up to 250 feet away! Built from crash resistant materials, the X-Wing’s authentic design stands up against the toughest crash landings. Bring home the epic adventures of Star Wars and experience the thrill of outdoors Remote Control flight with the X-Wing Star Fighter From Air Hogs!

My boys have just recently made their way through all of the Star Wars movies and with the new on coming out, Star Ways everything is everywhere! I’m not sure who will be more excited about this one, my son or my husband to be honest! But that’s okay, because I understand it’s pretty hard to fly. You are going to need a huge wide open field to fly the starfighter and a light touch. The good news is, it’s super durable, and can come out of plenty of crashes intact.

Spy Gear video snake cam

Explore your surroundings without ever being seen using the Spy Gear Snake Cam! The Snake Cam’s ultra flexible camera arm bends so you can see over walls, around corners, under doors or wherever you want! Just press the Activation Button, aim the Snake Cam and the Live Cam feed will project onto the handheld LCD screen. Whatever it sees, you see! Now you can navigate through challenging environments and detect enemies all while remaining hidden! When it’s time to pack up and disappear, the Snake Cam easily folds back into the compact unit and stores on your belt with its handy clip.

Yeah, as a parent, I’m not super keen on the idea of my kids spying on me, and that’s exactly who they will spy on! Knowing they absolutely love spy gear, I had hoped for the Spy Gear Walkie Talkies, that actually have a video display so not only can you hear eachother you can see eachother too! Nevertheless, this Spy Cam is pretty awesome. The boys have had fake spy gear from McDonald’s toys that they run around with, so I know this will literally just blow them away to have real working spy gear! 

Can you spy me in there? I’m snapping a pic of you!

Kinetic Sand Build Ice Castle

Kinetic Sand Build holds its shape to pick up and play! The Kinetic Sand Ice Castle lets you create a magnificent castle with shaping tools and 7 different molds! Use the shaping tool to sculpt bricks and build the Ice Castle on top of the mountain play space. Use the molds to create archways, towers and walls with the Shimmering White Build Sand. Use the 3 icy colors create your castle; you can even make a 4th by mixing them together! When it’s time to put it away, this soft and stretchy sand easily cleans up. It never dries out and is gluten free.

My boys are long time fans of Kinetic Sand and play with it a lot, but after a year, they are starting to get a little bit bored and were looking at some of the newer sets like Kinetic Sand Float and this Ice Castle set.

I love that it never dries out, we go through a lot of play dough because of that and it never happens with this sand. We’ve had our sand for a year now and it’s still works great.
