My son had a great time with this set as well. We liked how the game play is similar to the other Angry Birds (and Angry Birds Star Wars) games by Hasbro, but introduces something new with the launchers and cars.

Check the Angry Birds Go! Jenga Pirate Pig Attack Game
out on Amazon.

My six year old loves building and transforming these new Transformer Constructbots. The big feature here is you build and can customize your Transformer character, and then transform it without having to take it apart. You can mix and match pieces to make your own creation, and then transform that. Check out our video. Also, these are all on sale right now at Toys R Us.
