With his great love of Rescue Bots, I went on the search for toys that he could receive at Christmas. I was thrilled when I found Playskool Heroes Transformers Rescue Bots Optimus Prime Rescue Trailer from Hasbro.
When I was in contact with Hasbro, they agreed to send me one for Mr.K! When it arrived, I opened the packaging and got set putting it together. It says on the box adult assembly, no tools required. In all honesty, the hardest part of putting it together was getting the stickers in the correct spots (I am HORRIBLE with that, and normally leave it to my hubby).
The pieces for the trailer come apart and they snap together easily (for an adult, Mr. K wouldn't be able to do it). Optimus as a robot comes already put together. The trailer snaps onto Optimus and you have yourself a 17" semi-truck that can carry up to 4 rescue bots vehicles (these are items that are sold separately). On his own, Optimus Prime stands 10" tall; if you wanted to change him a little, you can reconfigure the trailer into wings, and add them to Optimus to turn him into a jet. The recommended ages for this toy are 3-7 years old. It can be found at local retailers that carry toys (Target, Real Canadian SuperStore, Walmart and Toys R Us) ARV $39.99

haha I LOVE placing stickers on toys... it's my favorite part! Optimus Prime is the best!
ReplyDeleteI can never get them in the correct position, I spend so much time trying to get them perfect that it takes longer than assembly most of the time! Thanks for stopping by
DeleteI may have to get this for my husband! Ha! Love that it was relatively easy to put it together. Can't wait to see the post of when he receives it!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think my hubby would have fun with it too!
DeleteYour boys are so cute! I love those "at the door" photos when they're ready to go trick-or-treating. My son loves Transformers and would have lots of fun with that toy. I love toys that are easy for mom to Transform!
