Toy Story 3 Landfill Play Set

With its release in June 2010, Disney-Pixar’s Toy Story 3 has been the inspiration for another group of popular toys that will most definitely fly off the shelves this holiday season. One of these toys is the Toy Story 3 Landfill Play Set made by Fisher Price and part of the famous Imaginext toy line. The play set recreates the scene at the end of the movie where Buzz Lightyear is trapped and in terrible danger at the Tri-Cities Dump, and is rescued by Woody and the rest of their friends. The scene ends with the toys escaping the dumps incinerator and finding a new home.

There are three levels of play in this set, each recreating specific parts of the scene from the movie. A large scoop dumps the toys into a sorter; the sorter puts them on a conveyer belt. The conveyer belt moves the toys from one level to the next. The final level of the set is the incinerator, and kids have to quickly rescue the toys, moving them to safety with the crane.

The set also comes with a moving bulldozer.

So far, parents have given this toy incredible reviews. They appreciate the rounded corners on the set, and the chunky size of the moving parts.

Collecting, Playing and Having Fun With a Toy Hobby

Some adults never seem to grow up. They seem to keep their childlike wonder at the world around them. These are the adults who have started a toy hobby. Kids like to hang around with these adults because they seem more like kids. Sometimes having a child or a grandchild can spark an interest in toys. Be that as it may, a toy hobby will keep you young at heart.

Many women love dolls and never seem to outgrow them. Some prefer baby dolls, some fashion dolls, and still others go for antique or decorative dolls. Often an interest in dolls will spill over into a craft interest, as the doll lover begins to craft clothing and accessories for favorite dolls. Some types of dolls that are often hand-crafted are rag dolls and cloth bodied dolls with ceramic heads. It is not uncommon to find older women who have an entire room of their homes filled with special dolls on display.

Older men, on the other hand, (and sometimes women, too) often like cars, trains and trucks. Antique metal cars are hot collectibles, with some older ones being quite valuable. Matchbox cars have always been collected, and so have the large Tonka dumptruck, road grader, and bulldozer. You can bet the grandkids will want to play with your cars and trucks.

A toy hobby that is extremely popular is collecting teddy bears. There are many Beanie Baby teddy bears, but a real teddy bear collector will probably want to branch out to collect other types of bears too. In fact, many bear collectors have figurines and other items collected in addition to their teddy bears.

Wooden toys are also popular among adults, both to craft and to collect. There is something quaint and pleasant about a child playing with a handcrafted wooden toy. Wooden toys make attractive home accents wherever they get dropped, which is not something you can say about the latest plastic gizmo. People who like country decorating often prefer wooden toys for their kids.

You don't have to outgrow toys! A toy hobby can keep you young at heart and make you a favorite among the kids in your neighborhood. Whether you collect toys or craft them, a toy hobby is something you can play around with!

This comes in handy for the child (or adult) who likes to shake things up a little and get creative.

As your child grows and learns to interact with others the set can grow with them. The many different ways that the set can be put together will only help to encourage your child’s imagination. The pieces and parts are durable as well as colorful and are sure to be handed down from sibling to sibling as time goes by.

The alert consumer of today sometimes has questions about toy safety but this is not an issue with the Tomica Hypercity Mega Station Set. It all comes back to reliability and reputation and the Tomica Company has proven again and again that it can deliver when it comes to entertaining children.
