Pubescent Hormones and Robots Run Amok
While it's amusing enough, and the effects are impeccable, there's little doubt about the age of the intended audience. Every adult in the film is a clueless buffoon or an officious wacko.

Whether apparently flirty bimbos or bookish babes, the girls are the intelligent ones while the "guys" are walking blobs of hormones and machismo.

It's a nice bit of overblown fun even if it can't decide whether to be a serious thriller or a comedic adventure.

Funny, Entertaining and phenomenal special effects!
This is one of the most entertaining movies in the last 20 years. And isn't that what movies are supposed to be? It is funny, cute, entertaining and the special effects are exceptional. And of course it has a great ending. Not much more one can ask for. Highly recommended to all ages but you have to have a sense of humor!

Great Movie
Love the re-incarnation/re-image, whatever you want to call it, can't wait for the next one.

Album Description
From director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg comes a thrilling battle between the heroic Autobotsr and the evil Decepticonsr. When their epic struggle comes to Earth, all that stands between the Decepticonsr and ultimate power is a clue held by young Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf). Unaware that he is mankind's last chance for survival, Sam and Bumblebee, his robot disguised as a car, are in a heart-pounding race against an enemy unlike anything anyone has seen before. It's the incredible, breath-taking film spectacular that USA Today says ''will appeal to the kid in all of us.''

The Elf on the Shelf is a great way for getting the Kids excited about Christmas!
This is something I grew up with and I am 39 yrs old. It is so worth the price. Try it this year in your home.. See the kids light up and want to look for the Magic elf each morning. Enjoy Christmas....

Santa's little helper --MOMMA's little helper!!!
I have had my eye on one of these for some time. Saw them at trade shows, but hoped to find it a little cheaper... This for some reason was the year to actually buy one. I found it a little lower in price (here online) and with free shipping you just can't beat it! The little elf and book came perfect, no nicks, dents, or scratches -straight to my door. I can't wait for the magic he will bring!

Great holiday tradition
This is a great holiday tradition for families with children. We received it as a gift last Thanksgiving and it was an instant hit with our kids. We named the elf "Ferrell,", a nob to Will Ferrell, star of the movie Elf. The kids love finding him each morning. We are excited to do this again for a second year. The kids are already asking when "Ferrell" is coming back.

Product Description

The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition is an activity the entire family will enjoy. Based on the tradition Carol Aebersold began with her family in the 1970s, this cleverly rhymed children's book explains that Santa knows who is naughty and/or nice because he sends a scout elf to every home. The elf watches the children's behavior and reports it back to Santa each night. By morning the elf returns to its assigned home and hides in a different location, allowing the children to play a delightful hide-and-seek game. Each product comes with its very own elf doll enabling others to begin this fun-filled Christmas tradition themselves. The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition includes an exquisite 10" x 10" hardbound children's book--illustrated by award winning artist Coe Steinwart, a vintage-like pixie elf doll that sits approximately 8" tall, and a certificate commemorating the adoption of the elf by a family, teacher, or other group. Additionally, this unique gift includes a festive keepsake box for convenient storage. The purchase of The Elf on the Shelf allows you to give more than a gift. Instead, you are giving a priceless treasure...the creation of lasting memories.

Thomas and Friends Bathtub Squirters

Adorable little bathtime buddies
My 20-month-old son is a HUGE Thomas fan, so when I saw these recently at a store, I had to pick them up for him. They're adorable!

They work like any other bathtub squirter -- just fill them up with water and squeeze them to watch water come out the "smokestack." (You have to fill them up pretty full for it to work properly, as the water is being squirted straight up.)

My son also enjoys playing with them outside of the tub. They don't really roll, as of course they don't have working wheels, but he still likes to make them "chug" across the floor.

Toot Toot!
My daughter absolutely loves playing with these squirters in and out of the tub. Just squeeze them and water comes squirting out the top (the whistle). Any Thomas the train fan would love these cool bath toys! Highly recommended!!!

Editorial Reviews

From the Manufacturer
Give them a squeeze for a fun squirt. Thomas Salty and Percy know just how to make bath time fun. Just hold these little engines under the water and let them fill up. Then give them a squeeze. They'll shoot a fun whoosh of water from their smokestacks.

But most of all, it's nice having the suitcase for all the parts. My son loves to play with it so much that we just bought his niece the Mrs. Potato Head Silly Suitcase for Christmas.

Ultimate Bumblebee
Great toy with lots of features.
My 12 year old girl got it and it was a bit difficult to transform. But, with perserverance, she did it.
I think any Transformers lover would really like getting this.

Good Times!!!!
I really enjoy this Bumblebee. I appreciate challenge so I transform it without using the instructions; takes me about 20 minutes. Overall it's good quality although the doors don't always seem to close properly. I don't recommend it for children, though. The lights and sounds are entertaining and amusing however it's really more of an item that should be displayed. In my opinion, it's too expensive to have it smashed and crashed by kids.

Great
I bought this toy for my son and it is great. He loves it. Shipping was timely and the toy was well packed. The toy is well made and it is quite hefty in weight.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Product Description
The Hasbro Transformers Ultimate Bumblebee Figure is the premium movie-based Transformers toy on the market. Standing more than 14 inches tall, this action figure is more than deserving of the title "Ultimate." With his sleek design, his battle and conversation sounds, and his advanced animatronics system, Ultimate Bumblebee is one of the most fully featured action figures you'll ever find.

The Bumblebee fully featured action figure delivers animatronics and sounds. View larger. View Side.

Bumblebee's car form is as detailed and well built as any model car. View larger. View Side.

Two Awesome Modes
Recommended for ages five and up, Ultimate Bumblebee is perfect for toy collectors and kids alike. Initially, Ultimate Bumblebee appears as a sleek 2008 Camaro. With its vivid yellow finish and racing stripes, Ultimate Bumblebee's car form is as detailed and well built as any model car and would be a perfect addition to a cabinet or dresser top. The car is able to roll freely on carpet and hard surfaces alike.

However, like all Transformers, there is more to Ultimate Bumblebee's Camaro form than meets the eye. When it is time for him to come out of disguise and confront his enemies, he can transform into a massive, powerful robot. Equipped with a plasma cannon, he is more than prepared to defend your local Autobot from Decepticon attacks.

With a few minor adjustments, kids can transform Ultimate Bumblebee seamlessly between his robot and his vehicle mode. His robot mode stands an impressive 14 inches, and is fully articulated, meaning that kids can adjust him into any pose. He is also incredibly detailed -- likely one of the most attractive action figures your aspiring heros will ever get their hands on.

Star Wars Interactive R2D2
Perfect for any Clone Wars Fan. Your little Jedi will be spending lots of time with his new friend.

R2 is AWESOME!!!
Man, this is the best toy ever created ! I'd recommend it to anyone. When I saw it on Hasbro[...], I thought it was one of those little action figures, but I saw the word interactive. I clicked on it, and after I read what it was, I freaked! I finally got it for Christmas, and I tell you, it's the best toy yet! Most people don't like R2's bad mood, but I think it makes him more "realistic." And he's both fun and funny! There are two reasons I like this toy. It's really sophisticated, and it's R2-D2! R2, MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!!! R2D2: Beep! (Yes!)

Just like the movies.
R2-D2 is a great toy. Although he's a little smaller that the real thing, he acts and looks exactly like it. Some commands are a little complex, but otherwise it cooperates wonderfully. A child who's a fan of star wars, even them would think it's ultimate. Even though it's only a robot, it makes a great friend and butler. (It has a drink holder that can serve drinks to you.) I think R2 is one of the best toys ever, and for one reason is that he's one of my favorites. I'm acting like I already have him, but I'm reading reviews, and so far, most people love it. The only thing that concerns me is that his educational value seems pretty low, and I wonder if that could effect play value. But R2 seems pretty awesome.

Features

• Newly programmed at our ultra-modern factory, this state-of-the-art R2 series astromech droid unit is ready to obey your commands
• Grab his attention by saying "Hey, R2" and he's ready for more than 40 voice commands
• Ask him if he remembers his famous friends, like Luke Skywalker, C-3PO or Jabba the Hutt, and each name will stir up a different response depending on R2's "feelings" for that character
• These are just a few of R2's amazing attributes include moving along on his own, turning his front beam on and off, and even playing a secret message when you follow the proper voice commands
• In "Game" mode, R2 plays multiple games and spins, dances and plays music, and he even guards your room with his sentry alarm
