Sports Guys Toys – Sports Action Figures Review
They were very excited when Kaskey Kids sent them their own Sports Guys figures kit to play with. I went to college at the University of Texas, so of course, I had to get them the University of Texas Longhorns football action figures set.
Sports Action Figures – University of Texas Longhorns football action figuresThe Sports Actions Figures Set of the University of Texas Longhorns football action figures includes:
26 2″ players, 1 referee, 2 goalposts, 24″x 48″ washable felt field, 10″x 6″x 5″ stackable container with attached lid and handle.
All of this cost $28.99 when we got it in 2009!
Action Figures for Sporty Kids
The boys could hardly wait for me to get all of the items out of the packaging. My son immediately wanted to set up the field with all the players. What’s great is that the players come in different positions and poses. There are no set rules, directions, or instructions. Kids are encouraged to use their imagination and move the players when and wherever they want.
Non-Battery Toy Ideas
If you are like us, you probably have a ton of loud, battery-operated toys in the house. It’s so nice to have this quiet and interactive toy set. Parents and grandparents will love playing along as well.
Football Action Figures, Baseball Action Figures, Hockey Action Figures, Soccer Action Figures, and More!
There is a large variety of sets to choose from. Pick a sport (football, baseball, hockey, soccer {guys and girls}. Then, for some sports, you can even choose the team. You can pick solid colors or a college team (the University of Michigan, University of Florida, Penn State, Tennessee, Ohio State, Alabama, Auburn, University of Texas, Illinois, LSU (fall 2009).
Even if you don’t have kids in the house these would make great decorations as well. In fact, InStyle Magazine published a coffee table book called “Parties”, featuring Football Guys as the perfect centerpiece for any Super Bowl party.
