(Original Fart Machine #2) 『This machine created a lot of laughs for everyone involved. I would definitely recommend it for a fun time.』
(Fun at the Gas Station (Pun Intended!)) 『I work at a gas station and bought this fart machine as a birthday present for the guy I work with, and...well, let's just say that was the most fun I've ever had at work! We both loved it, and so did all the customers!』
(Fun, entertaining, and just plain hilarious!) 『This thing is deffinitely one of the best pranks that you can buy on amazon. The range on this thing is great, it even works through walls. One of the funniest uses that I've found for it is to set it off in a public restroom. The reactions you get from this are golden.』 『As seen on Howard Stern. You can now FART wherever and whenever you'd like. This is your chance to impress or gross out your friends and family. This is the new and improved fart machine! The fart machine makes 15 new different fart sounds (SOUNDS SO REAL!!). Fart Machine has boom box technology...what is this?? Well let's just say these fart noises can't sound any more real!It has 2 pieces - the remote transmitter (battery included) and the speaker which requires one 9 volt battery (not included) Remote works through walls and can range up to 100 feet!!! Use it anywhere... at parties, school, movies, office, in a baby's diaper or in the Thanksgiving Turkey! Hide the sound box, then press the remote control at the appropriate time to "let it rip"! This unit even comes with stick pads to hide the speaker under chairs or tables!! Each retails for $29.99 each in stores.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Extreme disapointment) 『As others have commented, leave it in the box! Upon removing from the box, the arm fell off, the armor fell off, and the legs can't move. I worked with it for a while and was able to get most of this moving and back together without to much work. You cannot pose the arms very well. The right hand has to be opened and stretched to hold the weapon. And do not for any reason think that a child can actually play with this. Like others, mine is on display only. It's very frustrating as this is my first purchase of the line of figures and I am extremely reluctant to consider making a second purchase. All that said, the paint and detail on the figure is truly great. Still, it just seems like a half ass job.』
(This has to be the lowest durable mcfarlane halo figure yet.) 『I like to speak my mind and when i get duds or really nice figures i express myself. This figure has to be the worst designed figures for durability mcfarlane made yet. I think the problem is we the consumers got used to companies making figures like this and we keep buying them. I love these lines but back when series 1 and 2 came out they had issues we all complained about. This company that makes these are just cutting way more corners and it really shows. I buy so many of each of these figures since series 1. I am a big fan of the halo design and love these figures when i get them unbroken. I bought some in stores that look fine but when i open them there back hidden area has mold or huge paint defects or just falling off pieces. The shoulders and heads are made to come off easy they made it that way. The other parts falling off is where i get mad cause i got to start putting super glue to fix them. This in turn makes a arm or a leg not able to do anything but the pose you put it in before you super glue it.
This figure looks amazing even through the 4 i bought online are all the error ones with no white stripes which the rookie figure has. The amazon photo even shows the one without the stripes. I guess these were produced first and they found out about it late and fixed it. The visor also is a different color as well as the chest is green not white. I think they look great anyways and if you get one that does not have a defective peg hole for a arm or whatever it is a 2 thumbs up figure. I just warn you all alot of these being sent to people are not the true Rookie from the game it is a regular ODST just redesigned a bit from the older one. The difference that makes it the rookie is the color stripe on the helmet and chest and whatever else it has. I love how there Quality Control could miss such things. Well i guess i should get used to it they always screw up the simple things like these. I hope they hire someone that can actually see and fix these issues. If there just doing this to make more money while putting out defective stuff on purpose shame on them!
So i give 2 thumbs up if you want a non rookie version and it comes without broken defective joints. I recommend buying all mcfarlane figures in the future locally so you can buy something that has a less chance of coming broken. You get good at seeing those spots where you go hmmm nope not this one!』
(ODST Soldier) 『I bought this for my 10 year old son, who has many Halo figures. The minute we took it out of the package, the arms tore apart, and would not hold back together. It is poorly made. Pieces were just falling apart and we couldn't put them back because they wouldn't stay in place. My son's reaction was, "Wow,this is cheap." I would not recommend it to anyone who plays with action figures, or collectables. The other Halo action figures, and collector's items that my son has were not 'cheap' like this one.』
(Have to agree- lousy construction) 『This toy arrived with the fingers of its right hand glued together. When we separated them, it became apparent the right arm does not bend at the elbow (it's articulated, but the body armor prevents the arm from bending) - a major flaw when it comes time to blast away with the rifle!
From examining the figure, I believe the arm may have been assembled backwards at the factory - the armor appears reversed compared to the left arm (where the flap is in back of the elbow, not at the bend). However, the figure in the picture has a straight arm, so maybe this is just bad design.
6" action figures typically have a short life expectancy around our house - we have baskets full of mutilated soldiers. But this is the first one we've gotten that's been unplayable right out of the box.』
(Weakest Ever) 『This is by far the weakest Halo Action Figure to date that I have. He is small, and his left leg broke off in my hands literally 15 second after he was taken out of the package.
Size: He is quite a bit shorter than the other figures. He is skinnier, and his weapon is tiny compared to other two-handed guns that others carry.
Broken: The joint that holds his left leg snapped off as I was trying to move it. I am gentle with all of the action figures from McFarlane since they tend to paint completed figures and they tend to stick a little anyway. The leg did not have a chance. So, it has been glued on to a stationary position, and now he can only stand.
That being said, the armor is neat looking and different than the other Halo figures. He does stand out a little, and look like he would be easy to kill. I guess that is what happens when you are the "rookie."』 『Halo 2009 Wave 3 - Series 6 ODST Soldier The Rookie』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Great Game for two) 『This is a great game for even just two people. A little confusing to set-up and the first time through, but once you figure it out its a blast. Haven't played with more than two people yet, but I imagine it would be just as fun.』
(Great!) 『We are giving it as a gift so we have not used it, but it arrived in a timely manner and looks like it's in great condition! Thanks!』
(It's popular for a reason) 『When I tell my friends (who think board games are either monopoly or scrabble) lets play a game about farming, they all laugh and say it doesn't sound very fun. After a few games, they all ask me when the next time we'll be able to play Agricola. Rules are easy to explain to others, and playing can feel tense when trying to make the best moves or create the best strategy for your farm (or feeding your family). Overall very fun, read other reviews, check on [...], it's the number one game for a reason.』
(Good Game) 『Although, we have only had the opportunity to play this game once, it is a great strategy game for older kids and adults. We're looking forward to playing it again :)』
(Agricola) 『I played this game last night with four of my friends. The game is great. It was enjoyable to play. My only beef with this game is that they don't come with enough pieces for 5 players. After round 7 we were using Reed to replace the sheep pieces we had run out of. This happened for almost all the food, grain, and veggies.
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (The Fallen!) 『I really needed to get The Fallen for my TF collection. One of things that disappointed me even before I bought this figure was the fact that the ROTF toyline doesn't have any Ultra Class figures. Ideally, the Fallen should be bigger than the a regular Voyager class... so either Ultra or Leader.
Kinda put off by the fact that this hands can't hold anything (gun/spear), and not really impressed by the 'solar panels' around his head and arms. Beyond that, the concept with his feet are really cool and he poses pretty well.
The transformation to the jet was one of more difficult ones I've done, but not impossible. I think the jet mode is really lame though... as some others mentioned, they made the robot and figured they had to come up with an alternate mode and just force-fitted the alien destroyer mode. It's not bad, but not great either.
That said, I think this is a pretty cool toy. Very sinister looking and movie accurate, but even otherwise... you can imagine him to the be arch-villain behind Megatron.』
(A great toy to some...) 『Overall, this is a great toy, but it does have some downsides. Here is a list of pros and cons:
Pros: Great articulation and detail. It also has many moving "Mech-Alive" features that do not negatively effect the toys value.
Cons: These wouldn't matter to the average buyer, but the toys paint scheme is a tad inaccurate to the movie. He is an odd shade of dark green, and not matte black, and he lacks the reflective turquoise on his headdress spikes. He also lacks the spear he has in the movie, but a you could find one around your house.
Pro/Con: He transforms, which he lacks the ability to do in the movie and comics, which is a bonus for some, and a burden for others.
The cons might make the pros look fewer and far between, but if paint accuracy isn't that big of a matter, this toy is perfect. If paint does matter, don't get me wrong, this is a great MOLD for you. Hasbro has designed a more accurate, flame deco version, which will be released around November, just in time for the Holiday Season.』
(ROCKS!!!!!) 『I LOVE THIS TOY i got this at wall-mart and had so much fun with this buy it!!!』
(ROCKS!!!!!) 『I LOVE THIS TOY i got this at wall-mart and had so much fun with this buy it!!!』
(Really Cool!) 『This is one version, of two, of The Fallen in toy form (the other form being approximately a 4 inch tall figure), and this figure is really neat! The Voyager series is quite possibly the best version of the Transformer figures we get with this particular movie. The figures run at about $23 depending on where you buy them.
I also bought the Optimus and Megatron figures of the Voyager editions and, this also goes with The Fallen, the figures all feel cheap. The plastic is extremely lightweight and it's tough to keep the figures from staying in their vehicle modes (Optimus) without the aid of a rubber band. As much as I love these figures I will say right now that the Transformers toys from the 80s were of better quality than these. These feel like toddler toys that will break apart at any second when you handle them.
That's the only downside to all of these figures. Otherwise, these figures are still worth the $23 as they are very well detailed and are a nicer alternative to purchasing some of the more expensive models of the toys. Although, with The Fallen, this is the top of the line. This figure is articulated in many areas and the feet are closed together by springs so it would be easier to transform it into The Fallen's vehicle form. To get the feet flat you simply have to set the figure up on a flat surface. But the spring-loaded feet make the figure look even cooler if you set it up on the edges of boxes where one or two toes are flat while the other toes are grappling the edges of the boxes.
The "solar panels" on either side of The Fallen's head can be folded to the back of his head to give a more authentic look to the figure. The transformation of the figure isn't all that easy so you'll want to keep the instructions that come with it.
Overall, the figure is exceptional and highly recommended for any collector or fan of the Transformers toys! The appendages look great as well as the paint job!』 『For millennia, he has waited. Thousands of years have dragged by as he recruited proxies, one by one, to scour the cosmos for the artifact he required. Now he finds he must return to the primitive, flesh-slug infected planet on which his quest began. Nothing will stand in his way this time. If need be, he will scour the surface of this disgusting world clean in the fire of his rage, and search through the blasted rubble for that which he seeks.』

I thought it wouldn't be standing stable... fortunately I was mistaken. I already have Ironhide from previous movie and this Starscream is a fine addition to my collection. I decided to buy this after looking some very good pictures of this decepticon on Flickr... give it a try, you won't regret it.』
(Not durable enough for my kid... parts break off easily) 『THe parts break off easily and it was poorly made, the other one is bulkier but get it instead of this one. i do not reccomend this toy even though the jet form is cool.』
(Fantastico!) 『wow my first voyager, always thought they were just bigger but they have a little more going on than the deluxe class. with starscream theres more to the mechalive movement, and that oh so sweet transformation lasts a little longer, nd he is bigger, so compared to the deluxes hes more to scale. awesome cybertronian paint job, and i love that he finally has hands, theyre very menacing, his legs support him very well and the head sculpt looks great, he has missiles and gatling guns on both arms. my only complaint is pose ability limited by joint articulation in the arms and no torso movement. but thats basically how he handled in the movie, both of them. get him, hes the one you love to hate.』
(great toy!) 『Written by my 11 y.o. son, a big fan of the movies: This toy is so cool! It's very easy for me to stand up and the missiles are really cool! I think the mech alive thing is really nifty. The transformation is not very hard. overall it is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!』
(Difficult to work, bad instructions) 『the box said this was for 5+ year olds, but this is a very complex transformer with many small parts that need to be rotated to go from the fighter jet to Starscream. It took my son and his buddy about 2 hours to figure it out, with my help in between. The instructions are, sorry to say, crap. The printing budget must have been cut, because, although it is a large sheet of paper, but each step is so small and not really clear. They should have used both sides of the paper and made each step larger. Even I am having a hard time deciphering what needs to be turned which direction. My son (9) seems to have mastered it now, but my younger one (7) is still having difficulty with his Ironhide.
Caution: Although they look cool (and they are), be prepared for some frustration over how tight the pieces are and how bad the directions are. I would not give this to a 5 year old unless I had a lot of patience to assist.』 『The moment his sensor net registered MEGATRON going offline, STARSCREAM knew the battle was over, and the AllSpark lost. He converted to vehicle mode and boosted for outer space, hoping to buy enough time to rally the DECEPTICON survivors. Returning from CYBERTRON bearing the marks won during his reign over the DECEPTICON army, he is focused on conquest. With a new army behind him, he has the strength to pursue his own goals, and perhaps, when the time is right, bring MEGATRON back. Prepare to do battle DECEPTICON style! Fire either of two missiles from this eager enemy's pop-out missile launcher in robot mode. Activate gears with a turn of STARSCREAM figure's head!

Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Really neat model) 『This is a model of the human body that can be taken apart and re-assembled. The internal organs are soft to feel more real. It comes with a chart identifying each organ and instructions (mainly for older kids and parents) which show how to put it back together. Paired with a children's anatomy book it's a great lab companion. It's geared to older children (8 and up) but my 4 year old niece loves to take it apart and have Mom&Dad help her put it back together. She is demonstrating an amazing understanding of basic anatomy. Both her parents tell me they now know more about anatomy than ever before. It has turned out to be quite educational for the whole family.』
(Fun hands-on tool) 『I bought the SMARTLAB; You explore it - Human Body for my homeschool elementary anatomy class. My kids (Pre-K - Grade 7)love taking the body parts out and placing them on the "organ"ization sheet and then reassembling them in the model. The organs have a squishy, sticky feel to them while they are new, but I fear that all the handling will have them looking dirty and fuzzy eventually. It's been a couple week and they still look new. It is a good hands-on tool for elementary anatomy students.』
(kids had lots of fun) 『I ordered this to teach my children about anatomy. Two days after it arrived, I found my daughters and a friend of theirs playing with it. They actually played with it for a good hour, and then they played with it again the next day for a couple of hours. It is one of their favorite toys now. They don't even realize that it was meant to educate!』

"You Explore It: Human Body" by Lucille M. Kayes is a science kit which includes a book and a model of the human body along with tweezers and forceps to remove the body parts. This kit looked so neat that we couldn't wait to get started on it!
The book is 33-pages long and has sections about cells, the mouth, stomach and intestines, kidneys and bladder, the diaphragm, heart, lungs, skin, muscles, bone and brain. Obviously it doesn't go into depth on any body part but the author does provide interesting and sometimes funny facts. There are some questions and answers including, "What are hiccups?" and "Why do you get a pain in your side when you run too far?" The book also includes instructions for "dissecting" the model and for putting it back together.
The kit includes a 13-inch tall model of the human body. There are 21 removable body parts including bones, muscles and organs. The organs are soft and squishy and fun to play with. You can pretend you are a surgeon and remove the parts with the included forceps and tweezers. The illustrations in the instructions are not super clear and it is a bit tricky to get all the organs back in the proper place, especially since the organs are so floppy. Nevertheless, it is a nice model to display on a bookshelf.
I would recommend this kit, "You Explore It: Human Body" by Lucille M. Kayes, for kids who want to learn more about the human body or who want to become doctors. I think this would make a good Christmas or birthday present for kids from the ages of about seven to fourteen. This kit was fun and interesting and I think lots of kids would like it.

(HUMAN BODY MODEL) 『We bought this toy for our 4 1/2 year old grandson who is always asking questions about how his body works. The smile on his face when he opened this gift was priceless! There are many small parts included, but with adult assistance, he enjoyed taking the body parts out and examining them. The pieces are made of a very soft plastic that almost feels slimy, but isn't. The "touch" added to the mystery of the organs and generated many more questions...a very good learning toy! A chart is included, labeling the body parts for easy identification. The molded outer body is made of two pieces of see-through hard plastic that snaps together easily. (Lay the backside of the body on the table while you replace the body parts and then snap the frontside in place to hold everything together.)
