When are the toys from the National Toy Fair 2012 Star Wars toys coming out into stores? I know some of them already have, but i’m really looking foreward to the star wars old republic orange clone trooper and the naboo starfighter. Does anybody know when thpse nes are coming out?

the watches still works. I would like to sell them all of what i have. I have sets and sets of them. who can i contact to sell these things. I even now have toys that are still in their bags. They come from burger king 2005. Help i need to sell these things. and i have alot. what are they worth.

After school today when i was depositing a jacket in the trunk of my family car before running to the track for track practice a teacher spotted my little brother’s (7 years old) STAR WARS gun. He called the office who got a police officer to write down my plate number.

Tommorrow i will be called out of school to talk with the police.

I’m freaked out im an AP scholar, never done anything wrong before. Should i bring the toy gun to show them tommorrow? Has something like this happened to you? Will these hurt my college elligibilty?

*I’m only allowed to drive the car to school, my mom uses the car besides that and keeps his toys in there

Back in 1999-2000 there was a series of toys sold that resembled micro machines but I believe they were a knock off brand and it features aliens and they looked like monsters, sets would come with a large ship and feature little monster aliens to play with it on the same scale as the Micro Machines star Wars sets. Any ideas?

At what age would you let your boy watch movies such as Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and the Pirates movies. My MIL said that her husband said that Iron Man was pretty violent so she wasn’t going to get it for my son (but she had originally planned on it). But at what age do you start letting your boys watch movies like that? I have not seen them but he has seen Spiderman movies (he was at the babysitters) and my in-laws gave him Star Wars movies and even want to get him Jurasic Park movies, I guess I just don’t really see much of a difference. It’s hard to keep kids from watching stuff like that since they come out with toys from these movies and they want the toys even if they haven’t seen it. They aren’t rated r they are pg13.

"Just because your kids want something doesn’t mean they get it! Your kids don’t have to see the latest movies or have all the toys they want." DUH!!! He is all too aware of that. And even if they get it doesn’t mean that they get to keep it either. Doesn’t matter who bought whatever it is or how much it cost.
"Is everything being EASY that important to you?" I said nothing of the sort. I simply said it’s not easy. If I wanted things to be easy for me I would hire people to do things for me or just not have had any kids.
G-Good point!

We sell mainly second-hand retro toys. Any suggestions for cool promotional ideas to boost sales (other than just having a sale and reducing prices? For example, we had a Star Wars Week recently, with dressed-up ei, competitions etc. Ideas involving Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh especially welcome!

I was just told the education code trumps the civil rights code

I’m not a parent, only 19.. but I have a 9 year old nephew who I need to find a Christmas present for. I used to just send money, but most kids would rather get toys than money, right?
So here’s my first question: how much is it appropriate for a relative to spend on their niece/nephew?
Second question: this little guy likes power rangers and star wars and those sorts of fighting things. Would you be upset if a relative gave your child a "fighting" toy for Christmas? examples, nerf guns, light sabers, super soakers, etc.

Thank you so much for all your help, us college kids kinda forget all of these kid questions!

My kid, Buster, was complaining that he only made babysitting the Fenster kids up the street.

I told him, as he stood there incredulous, that it would take me two weeks of a paper route in 1982 to earn what he made in a few hours.

He tried to counter something about inflation, but I relayed that toys costs about the same today, not even including inflation.

Videogames — top games then were , as they are today. Consoles, 0-350, about the same. And today there are bargain bins and used games.

Dolls and figures — Star Wars and Barbies seem about the same price for the basic figures. Again, there are budget options online today I didn’t have back when.

Matchbox cars — about a buck.

Bikes — typical Huffy is about 0, same as back in the day.

CDs — these may actually be cheaper today than in the 80s.

Music players — a Walkman did cost more than a non-Apple mp3 player today.

So kids are in a much better position today, no?

Other examples?

My 17 year old son still enjoys playing with his red Star Wars light saber. He isn’t a die hard Star Wars fan so I don’t understand his obsession with the saber. He dresses up in costume including tights, tool belt, and cape. Occasionally he also wears a helmet. He jumps around the house on all of the furniture making saber noises and pretending to slice non-existent enemies. When he was a kid we thought it was great for him to have such a cute imagination… but it hasn’t worn off yet. I think 17 years old might be too old for the kid saber, but maybe I’m just not keeping up with the times. There’s always those nerdy kids who play with toys that are cool right? I just don’t want to imagine him getting beat up at school… should I intervene and take his toy away or put him in time out? Or can I not punish him because he’s an adult now? HELP PLEASE!

i want to use some star wars Products (toys,figures,lego,) on my youtube videos,
but i don’t want to have problems with youtube,i just apply for youtube partner and i want to avoid this
copyright issues i accept any suggestions…

I think if you constantly buy toys child asks for, he/she’ll get spoiled. But what if they didn’t ask for it and you buy it anyways since you think it’ll be good for them. Will this make them spoiled as well?

Recently I saw a movie called "lord of war" starring Nicholas Cage where the father character buys his toys for his son and leaves it in his room while the kid is sleeping and I thought that it was a sweet scene.

I am considering getting a mall kiosk going around mid summer. My questions is this:
How would toys do at a mall kiosk?
The mall I will be in does not sell what I am going to sell, which is action figurines, and possibly legos. There are a LOT of kids in the mall. How do youthink action figures would do? ( star wars figurines etc.)

Star Wars used to be OK despite getting more then half the laws of physics wrong. But when will they just let star wars die already? i am so sick of all these cartoons, books, toys, video games they are releasing based of star wars. And for you star wars fans, doesn’t it get old after awhile?

still have most of your toys from your childhood?

I still have all of my He-Man and Star Wars crap in boxes in the attic at my parents house.

even if you havent seen the movie
you prolly HAVE
since it was ins friggin Star Wars years earlier
lame JJ Abrahms… LAME!

that pretty damn close to what the monster looks like dood… cmon get REAL, and i saw it friday the minute it came out at 12 noon…

I am 16 years old. I live with my cousin. her husband and their 7 1/2 year old son. I volunteer at my church once a week to clean with my adult friend. I also watch my cousin 5 days a week until 3PM. Normally, my cousin makes arrangements for child care, but just last time, I had to bring him along with me. For one thing, he talked about Star Wars the entire time in the car so I couldn’t get a word in edge-wise to my friend. She nodded and uh-uh’d to everything he said. I tried to interject and say something, and he shouted back at me in a smart tone. We got to the church, and my friend was trying to find something for him to do while we cleaned. There was a whole room full of toys. There was only one toy he wanted, and when we started cleaning, he didn’t even play with it. He continued on about Star Wars while we were cleaning. Normally, we make small talk during this time, sometimes about serious things, because I often confide in this woman. But he kept walking around us and talking about Star Wars, Star Wars this and that, we didn’t have time for a conversation. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with talking about your favorite thing,however, it shouldn’t be okay to make someones entire day about it. I would try to talk to my friend. I would start saying something and she had about 10 seconds to reply to me before he continued on Star Wars. He told us the entire story, about all the movies. We went in another room,and he found a Mr. Potato head. He complained that all the pieces were not there,and blamed the other kids. I started to say something to my friend and he says "Oh, my God, shut up", to me. That was embarrassing so I just ignored it. He found a toy he wanted and I thought THAT might keep him occupied, but no. Star Wars this and that, I had no time to speak. Finally, some other kids his age came, but right before we were about to leave. He played for a little bit. When we went to lunch, on and on about Star Wars and interrupting us. He interrupted my friend and she had to tell him that she needed to speak to me for a second. It was bizarre, he would be talking about Star Wars to her and I was trying to discuss something serious. She had to hold two conversations at once. In the car, he "teased" me like I’m his 10 year old older sister. That’s really the way he thinks it is, he doesn’t see me as authority, although his mother instilled that role into me while I’m babysitting. That was really embarrassing in front of my friend. He also got upset when he found he couldn’t keep a toy from the church. I think that children need to recognize when people are having a serious conversation and respect it. I want to ask his mother politely if she could make arrangements next time, but do you think it would be rude?
I’ll add one more thing, he does the Star Wars thing at home,too. He does it when I’m trying to read a book or something. I ask him to please be quiet, I’m reading and cannot listen at the same time. He ignores what I say and goes right on. I listen to him, but I cannot sit here and do it 24/7, I have other things to do, too.
I am going to have kids. When it is my child, I will tell them that we are having a serious conversation and they will listen to me. This is someone else’s child that does not see me as authority. Your children will not learn to respect other people if they make everything about themselves.

So I got a part-time job, and for my first pay days I spent it mostly on DVDs and presents for my family. Then a couple of weeks ago, (i’m a huge film fan, by the way) I saw Toy Story 3 and loved it, I have always loved the Toy Story films. So I work in a huge supermarket and I went down the toy aisle and bought a Woody doll. It’s the size it would be in real life, like the film. The detail was amazing, and it looks fantastic, I’m not a collector of toys or anything, I just have a few Star Wars busts, and a Spock bust, so I thought if I place the Woody beside them, on my dvd collection it would dectorate my dvd set really well. The doll was over £30 or about . Do you think this was a waste of money. I’m a 17 year old boy, and it wasn’t my whole pay, ( I get paid weekly)

I have decided that my hobby(stated in a recent question of mine) is getting a little old for me and i am trying to quit it. I have many toys that are in premium mint condition. However they have used and opened but like i said mint condition so they look brand new. I want a good site to sell them on. I know about e-bay but I refuse to pay e-bay to put them up for sale on their website. The only one I know about besides e-bay is craigslist but nobody looks for toys on there. Does anyone know of other websites i could have a chance of selling them on(if it helps some are "halo wars mega bloks" the others are plain star wars action figures).

im a lego collector and star wars fan (not the nerdy kind though). i want to get the lego death star wich would be awsome. i also want to try paintballing. i can only do one of those. what one would you recomend? (also put this question under Toys)

I’m 99% positive that my friend’s son is autistic (has poor communication skills, started speaking much later then other kids, doesnt make eye contact, focuses only on one thing). She doesn’t think so-she says if anything, he is ADHD and his special ed teacher would have said something by now. Since she obviously does not have any therapy for him, he is getting worse and worse. My son, who is the same age, notices something is wrong and does not like to play with him. When he comes over, the only thing that he wants to do is play Star Wars Legos Playstation. If we tell him no, or cut him off after awhile, he throws a mean tantrum and is inconsolable. He refuses to play anything else, will not listen or make make eye contact when you speak to him, will not have any conversation with you and will rip through the toy box, not play with the toys, but throw them around the room. How do I tell my friend in a nice way that I don’t want to watch her kid when she asks me to babysit?

i play WoW for hours a day, play nintendo on occasion, i colect comic books but only one series (star wars legacy) , i really really like star wars and still play with the toys at 13, i know way too much about computers and what makes them work but i do my homework rarley and never read actual books. Dont say im a nerd wanabe because i dont like being called one nor having to think i am one
why the hell did it put it in this category!!!! (no offense to anyone, im just wondering)
oh yeah, i am good at math and kinda enjoy it but not to an uber extent though

Does anyone know where i can get some Hasbro Star Wars action figures, Kotobukiya vinyl statues and toys along these lines, in Shanghai?

sure, most of you guyz might think im talking about porn and stuff but actually, no! I have a 10 year old son that spends hours, seriously hours, on the web looking up star wars things. he looks up toys, videos, episodes, i dont even know what the hell he looks up on star wars. Now dont take me wrong, i dont have anything against star wars, i actually like it. but, my son’s endless hours of surfing on the web are about to stop. (I hope) i was wondering how could i block any webpage that says something about star wars. i would appreciate any help. thanx a million.

I’m a toy collector and I collect G.I.Joe, Halo 3, Halo Reach, and Star Wars. I’m contemplating making a youtube video series (in comic book format). But now I want to know, if your a toy collector, what kind of toys do you collect and if you do reviews on youtube give me your youtube name.

My sons Colin, 5 & David, 3 are sweet little boys but they can be very violent… My husband buys them toy guns and "star wars lightsabers" and lets them watch star wars, power rangers, ninja turtles etc. He doesnt see this as a problem. From what they are exposed to, they fight all the time. Play time is always wrestling until one gets hurt, throwing toys at each other, and having "lightsaber/gun battles".
In my opinion, they are too little to be exposed to all of this, and with so much violence in this world it’s terrible. Is there any way to "turn back time"? and make them STOP all of this nonsense?
of course I don’t want sissy boys, but I think of Collumbine, and Virginia Tech, even the stabbing at a high school in Massachusetts and I pray my kids aren’t like that

In total, which one has made the most money? Including books, movies, toys, memorabilia, theme parks, etc. Please include your sources.

There was this toy when I was little where it came with a tank and it was filled with clear gellatin and it included toys that you put in that would make it look realistic, like star wars and the little mermaid.

OR, how old was your child when they started to move away from toys.
My son is 11 and his birthday just passed (where he got a lot of toys) and Christmas is coming up, I’m wondering whether I should start to slack of in the toy department.

*He is really into star wars and legos and his room is FULL, lol.

For Comic Con 2008, Hasbro released a set of four "exclusive" Mighty Muggs: Peter Parker, a movie-version of Iron Man, the fertility idol from "Raiders of the Lost Ark," and Commander Gree from "Star Wars."

These figures were sold on Hasbro’s online store until a few days ago. Most are sold out now. Will Hasbro restock these four Mighty Muggs in their online store? Will they eventually sell these figures in stores? Or are these toys indeed exclusive? Thanks!
