We wrap up our Toy Fair video coverage with our third installment focusing on toys for kids.
(We already looked at Collectable Toys (Part 1) and Cool Stuff (Part 2))
Here are a ton of links to go with the video B Toys
We recently tried out the Nerf Dart Tag Fury Fire set (two complete players!) We’re working on the video now, in the mean time, click below to listen to my recommendation on Magic 106.5FM’s Magic Morning Show with Jack Logar. Check out the official Nerf web site for more info.

The parenting blogosphere has been talking about the Gluton Bebe, (Glutton Baby) toy from Spain. It’s a doll that allows girls (and sure, boys) to simulate the act of breastfeeding a doll baby.
No really… Glutton Baby, The Breast Feeding Baby.
I think my main problem is, that even though the act of breastfeeding is natural and wonderful; just having breasts, real or imagined (or accentuated) is sexual, particularly in our society. (Someone once said, you stab a woman in the chest, the movie is PG-13, but if you kiss her chest, it’s rated R.)
Yes I think our society is a little too puritanical, but I think this toy goes a little too far.
I just reviewed this all terrain RC truck. It’s got a great size, and it’s squishy wheels provide great cushion when jumping off of curbs and such. It handles pavement, grass, dirt, woodchips, rocks, pretty well. In the second half of the video, I strap on the ATC3K Helmet Cam for some rugged behind the wheel action.
It’s available exclusively at John Deere dealerships, and a few places online. Though it’s just under $90, it does come with a rechargeable battery pack. We got almost 40 minutes of driving time with the 4 hour charge. Check out the official.Ertl website for more info.
