Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway – Drawbridge

21VTAksqNsL Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway   Drawbridge Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway – Drawbridge The Thomas Wooden Railway System is designed to grow along with your child’s increasing skills, offering years of enjoyable play and new adventures around each and every bend. Up, over, around and through – these bridges and tunnels add color and elevation to all your layouts. There’s a low bridge ahead! Push the lever to raise the bridge so Thomas and his friends can pass safely underneath.
Customer Review: Flimsy mechanism
Only half of the bridge opens for me. The internal gears are pretty flimsy, so they slip and one side only raises halfway.
Customer Review: A fun bridge in the Thomas line.
A nice, low bridge, with an easy-for-young-kids-to-use lever, where they must open it to allow trains to pass underneath. It is all wood except for the green sides of the bridges and lever, and it’s solidly built. This thing is so low, it will never tip over in your setup. My son always has to have this bridge connected to everything he sets up, and he hasn’t got bored with it since he got it.

LEGO Knights Kingdom Scorpion Prison Cave

51 ZD4t5L3L LEGO Knights Kingdom Scorpion Prison Cave LEGO Knights Kingdom Scorpion Prison Cave Sir Danju has been captured and imprisoned in the Scorpion Prison Cave. Sir Jayko must ride his armored horse to rescue his friend. But can he overcome the giant scorpion that guards the cave’ Challenge the might of the scorpion with the horse-mounted catapult. Includes Sir Danju, Sir Jayko, Lord Vladek, Shadow Knight and skeleton. All four cell walls open to release the prisoner. Knob turns to raise and lower drawbridge. Includes 274 LEGO pieces.
Customer Review: My 9 year old LEGO fanatic son loves this set…
It’s very durable and has a lot of interesting aspects to it. I disagree that it’s unstable – it’s more secure than some other sets he owns. Unlike the Scorpion Palace (which was a huge disappointment in many ways), the Scorpion Prison Cave is a fun set that has kept my son entertained for hours.
Customer Review: Shut up.
If you think the Prison Cave is weak,then it means you don’t have the intellectual abilities to follow the instructions the set comes with and actually build it right.And Lego’s quality is FAR better than Megablocks,don’t even try to say they are both bad.

LEGO Knights Kingdom Vladeks Dark Fortress

51M7uMd0RvL LEGO Knights Kingdom Vladeks Dark Fortress LEGO Knights Kingdom Vladeks Dark Fortress The Knights of Morcia are locked in pitched battle with the evil Vladek and his nefarious marauding forces who are trying to control the kingdom. But in this sprawling, expansive 967-piece set from Lego, the Knights are taking the battle right to Vladek s house, seeking to defeat him right there at his enormous fortress. The set includes a multitude of swords, shields, battle axes, and other weapons for Sir Rascus, Sir Jayko, Sir Danju, and Sir Santis to use as they take on Vladek and his crew, all of whom are represented by tiny Lego guys who, as always, look more cute than fierce. The fortress is equipped with spring-loaded missiles, a catapult, and even a vat of fake boiling oil. Plus, there s a scary dungeon with skeletons and pretend spider webs. –Charlie Williams
Customer Review: Great model from Lego
I love this lego set. There were many stuffs that I didn’t expect to see before I finished assembling it. There are 5 parts of fortresses connected as one unit. That is really cool. There are a lot of cool weapon stuffs. Mini figures are so cute as well. It looks nice to have on shelf as decoration item. It was fun. Most of my friends who saw it said it was cool. To me, it is worth my money.
Customer Review: An Excellent Design From Lego!!!
I love the Vladek’s Dark Fortress lego set. I like the colors lego used, I love the architecture of the building while allows you to display it many different ways, the mini figuries that it comes with are of a newer design and of a better look then the older ones.

Customer Review: Great castle!
I got this for my son a couple Christmases ago and he is still playing with it at age 10. It is beautiful and easily put together by the child. Great for imaginary play and holds up well. Seems to be best if placed on a play table for easier access and keeping it out of the way (big castle).

Wooden Red Camelot Castle

41pdJBS8idL Wooden Red Camelot Castle Wooden Red Camelot Castle For a fantasy of medieval fun, enter this gate! The King’s Large Castle is a fabulous four-towered fortress made of painted wood panels that slot together easily on a 23″x20.5″ base. Authentic details include working drawbridge and crane, a keep with dungeon and lift-up gate, and wide ramparts that ring a spacious courtyard. Ages 4-11.
Customer Review: Great design, but poor durability on some parts
We opened this castle on christmas day and were disappointed to see some parts were broken. The drawbridge and flag is particle board, which were broken, and made of particle board. the other parts of the castle are wood. great design, but poor choice of materials for the drawbridge, which is weight bearing when kids play with it. We love the layout of the castle. It looks like a lot of fun, but returned it due to the drawbridge.
Customer Review: Great Castle!
This is a wonderful castle for all those Papo figurines. My son is very pleased.

Customer Review: Thomas Lighthouse Bridge and Bulstrode
Another great idea from Thomas! I purchased the lighthouse and bridge for my grandson’s, Dominic, 5th birthday and, of course, his brother, Cristian, 4, joined in the fun. They had been to the marina and were familiar enough with the boats and lighthouse to be able to relate to this wonderful addition to the Thomas Railway system. The lights and sounds of the lighthouse and bridge are delightful! It adds yet another dimension to the imaginative play world of Thomas. Highly recommended!
Customer Review: Great fun and something different for the Thomas tracks
My 5 y.o. saw this in a hobby store and had to have it. I made him wait for Christmas and he was so excited when he received it for a Christmas present. He absolutely loves playing with it. We have to turn the lights off in the room so he can do the lighthouse light! It’s especially meaningful to him since we spent Thanksgiving at the beach and visited so many lighthouses. The fog horn is realistic and even my 7 y.o. gets in on playing with it.

Castle opens fully for hours of engaging play. Measures 17.5″L x 27″W x 15.25″H.
Customer Review: Great alternative to traditional doll house!
I bought this for my[...][grand daughter. She has 2 sisters age 4 and 8. They have had in the past a plastic (Junk) Barbie type ($150.00)doll house that did not captivate their attention nor stand up to normal wear and tear. My grand daughter has been talking about a "Real" doll house "You know Grandma, one made from wood. One that is pretty and we can make believe with" I've been shopping dollhouses for a month! What I have found out is that they can be terribly expensive, cheaply made or so intricate that they are really not appropriate for play. I ordered this one for this Christmas. Though the children have not played with it yet, my adult children (All parents now themselves) have tried it out and give glowing reviews. It is very well made, needed no assembly, is the right size for small hands, doesn't take up half the house and isn't plastered with fashion models! I also ordered the Castle dolls and they are adorable and equally well made. The adult response was so possitive that I have since ordered the other castle (Not pink) for my four year old grandson.(With the castle figurines as well) I am now searching the dollar stores for a couple of "Scary" dragons to go with them. With the sales this Christmas and so many places offering free shipping, this is truly a bargin!
Customer Review: Delicate and Sturdy
Talk about a beautiful castle!!! This is one toy you don’t mind having sit in your living room. This castle is sturdy and the painting on it is wonderful! My daughter has got more enjoyment out of this than any of her other toys. She uses the princess set in it and has army men (from her brothers) to protect the castle. I would buy another!
