Fact number one, almost every little kid likes Batman. Fact number two, almost every kid like to ride a bike. Fortunately for kid’s ages 24 months-5 years, they are now able to ride the Fisher Price Batman Trike. This highly interactive lights and sounds Batman Trike features an awesome Batman design with decaled faceplate, traditional Dark Knight colors, and graphics. Made to fit children of all sizes, the Batman trike has an adjustable seat, and is highly durable for both indoor or outdoors use. Perfect for any child who wants to grow up to be a crime fighter, Fisher Price has included a Bat signal faceplate with 8 buttons and Batman sounds that even connect to the operational signal lights! Amazon is currently offering the Fisher Price Batman Lights and Sounds Trike for almost 30% off its original price, making it perfect for a fall weather ride (or gift). It may be difficult for Dad to keep his hands of the mini Batmobile, as I am sure he will want to take it for a spin around the block as well.

In all honestly, I am a bit of a Star Wars junkie. I grew up with the original trilogy, so it is only natural that I am still enthused when cool Star Wars toys come out. Maybe I should act my age (yeah right), but I am happy to say Amazon sells Lego Land Star Wars Toys. The one I had recently gotten my hands on was the Lego Star Wars Anakin’s Fighter set, and believe me when I say it is awesome. This specific Jedi Starfighter model is the same fighter ship Anakin Skywalker uses in The Clone Wars TV show. As his customized model, this ship uses flick fire missile technology in order to take down the forces of the dark side, as well as retractable landing gear, and a spot for R2-D2. At 153 pieces and flying at 10” long, the Lego Land Star Wars set includes the ship, as well as a mini Luke Skwalker and R2-D2 figurine. Although I play with it, the recommended age for this Lego set is suitable for ages 7-12 and it can even be shipped for same day force fun.

Surprise, surprise, the hardest game console to buy is still the Nintendo Wii. It seems like this elusive gaming device sells out of stores even before the store itself is able to carry them. Go figure that one out! Clearly the best way to buy a Wii is not through the stores, and there is not much of a guarantee for those that happen to fall off a back of a truck. The only place that consistently has the Nintendo Wii is good ol’ Ebay. These systems are always coming in great shape and normally with 2 controllers and video games. Some packages even included Wii Fit and the Mario Kart Bundle (as well as a multitude of other games), so you won’t even have to rush out to buy a new game once you get it delivered. Plus, many of the Wii’s come guaranteed new and include over a year long warranty. If you are a big fan of the Wii and are looking to actually own one instead of wishing you had one, check out Ebay’s huge supply! Just as an added little bonus, if you are unfamiliar with the ways of Ebay, get ready to enjoy purchasing an online item with FREE shipping!

Is the force strong with you? Perhaps you are turning to the dark side? Regardless of being a rebel fighter, Jedi knight, or dark lord, all can enjoy playing with The Star Wars: The Clone Wars Lego Sets. Choose from Anakin’s Jedi Starfighter, V-19 Torrent spacecraft, AT-TE Walker, Droid Gunship, and many other spaceships featured in the new Star Wars feature length film. Take the Republic Attack Gunship for example! For ages 9-14, this ship is 14″ long x 17″ wide x 7″ high, and has multiple movable parts and cockpits. The side compartment actually opens to remove the command center, while the 8 flick fire missiles and 2 rotating front missiles will help keep enemies away. Once completed, the back hatch of this Clone Wars Lego Set will open in order to release the speeder bike, and the top compartment opens to release spy droids! So what good is a Star Wars Lego Set without your favorite characters? Well, also included with the Republic Attack Gunship are Obi-Wan Kenobi, Commander Cody, Plo Koon, and other movable figurines!! These are excellent toys to create and play with, just make sure you don’t get sucked to the dark side of the force.

Little babies love toys that go boing, pop, and have fun music to play along with. The Playskool Busy Ball Popper is a great way of keeping your little one entertained, all while thrilling them with various lights and funny sounds, actions, swirls, and music! Your child will laugh as they place one of the multicolored balls down the spiral track, and be greeted by another toy ball popping out of the top! Of course accompanied by 8 fun filled songs and glowing lights, this toy truly helps to promote motor development as well as repetitive play. The Playskool Busy Ball Popper has been so effective in these areas (and of course in keeping your child laughing for hours), it has won various awards for excellence such as the American Baby’s Best Toy, the NAPPA Gold Award, and the Child Magazine’s Best Toy. Only needing 4 AA batteries, the Busy Ball Popper is appropriate for children 9 months-3 years of age, but has the silliness even adults will love.

To celebrate the release of The Dark Knight, a new set of Batman Legos were released featuring Gotham’s Batman, and his arch enemy The Joker. In this outstanding 449 piece The Batman Tumbler: The Jokers Ice Cream Surprise set, you are now able to build a full functional Tumbler vehicle (at a nice 9″ by 6″), and the Jokers ice cream truck (5″ by 2″).

The Joker may have some other plans for Batman however with his seemingly entertaining ice cream truck, which of course has nothing short of a hidden missile which flies out the back! This set includes all the pieces to create both vehicles, the Batman, Joker, and Jokers Henchman figurines, and mini weapons for each character to use. The Batman Tumbler Lego Set is ages 7-12 but really fun for all ages, and all those who are a fan of The Dark Knight.

The Bell Tolls For: The Dark Knight
Who hasn’t heard the “which is better Superman or Batman?” great debate at least 15 times in their lives? Well, let me answer that question off the bat, Batman is the greatest Super Heroes of all time. For those who agree with me, you are smart individuals. Those who do not agree with me, chances are good you are the opposite. Aside from the fact The Dark Knight is only human and yet still has the ability to take on the craziest villains (both human and otherwise), who out of all the super heroes out there does it with the same dark coolness? The answer is none. Batman has the some of the best gear (as seen in all of his movies, most recently of course Batman Begins and The Dark Knight), best car, best sense of civic duty (after all Bruce Wayne could just be busy counting his $$ all day), and the drive of a man twisted with inner turmoil. Batman does not have super human strength, or natural flight ability, or x ray/laser vision, or speeding bullet speeds (sound like anyone else?). All Batman has is his brain, body armor, and a bold attitude to stop crime, even if it means dying himself. Does The Dark Knight will do anything within his power for Gotham City to be a place for peace, justice, and safety. Check out these great ways to get into the Batman action!
Batman Lego Game. Offered For Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, PS3, PSP, and Xbox 360

Batman: Gotham Knight. 6 interlocking mini chapters of Batman going from crime fighter to Super Hero.

Batman: The Animated Series (4 DVD set), Vol 1.

If you haven’t already, go check out The Dark Knight (in theaters I am sure everywhere) for latest in the Batman Installments.

Mario and the gang is back, and back with their pedal to the metal in the new Nintendo Will Mario Kart. The insanely fun game is back again, and this time it is filled with new arenas, new tournaments, new characters (after all you can even play as yourself!), and of course new controllers. This is by far the craziest way to play any Mario Kart game, and it has finally been established with the help of the Wii controller, and the included Wii Wheel! Along with some modern graphics, the new game also features cooler weapons, moves, and special powers like launching off ramps, and popping wheelies. Drive your way through some of the older race courses (featured in every older version), or try your hand at the new rough and tough racing circuits to be crowned at victory lane! The Nintendo Wii Mario Kart is an awesome game to play solo or with a group, just be sure to not wake the neighbors with your buggy.

If you are still parading around with the classic black 60GB video iPod or even worse, the white 40GB 3rd generation iPod, you clearly need a smack. We are now in the age of the Apple iPod 80GB 6th Generation, which is even be offered at a fully sick 160GB. So yes, it is very obvious that space for pretty much unlimited music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, audio books, and pics is there. The really sweet things about gen 6 however, goes way beyond the incredible storage space. Using an upgraded interface, you can browse through your music library using the “cover flow” which shows you cover art instead of just band title, or you can use the click wheel to actually type in words for a search of song, band, album, podcast, or audio book. The video display on the Apple iPod 80GB 6th Generation will also give you up to 7 hours of full video playback plus addictive and colorful games. If that doesn’t keep you interested, perhaps the 40 hours of audio playback will keep you satisfied.

Regardless of what system you own(ed), there is no doubt that you have played some type of war game on it.

Sony Playstation 3
Although the coolness that is the Sony Playstation 3 has been on the shelves for a bit of time, the exceptional gaming and unique incorporation of various media still keeps me more than impressed. Outside of the 80GB of storage, the PS3 is a marvel of the gaming system world. Acting as both a gaming console and a home multimedia entertainment center is really how the Playstation 3 really makes its stand. Incorporating HDMI (high def multimedia interface) ports to compatible HD TV’s and projectors, the system will throw uncompressed digital sound and HD 1080p picture in right in your face. The new generation Sony Playstation of course also has a built in Blu-ray disc player and actually encodes games onto blu-ray discs making them hold 6x the capacity of old games. This may sound like biting of more than a system can chew except for the fact that PS3 uses IBM’s “Cell” processor and Nvidia graphics card to process only 2 trillion calculations a second. System and picture quality aside, the wireless controllers can sense even the most delicate motion of your hand for extreme game play, so its not just going to be your thumbs to the rescue anymore. With a sleek new design and a great variety of new games (you can play the old ones too), the new Playstation 3 is will be the most cutting edge gaming console for the next few years…
