Review: MOTUC Standor

WTRTW Awards 2013 aka 'the Palindromes'

It's the 10th January and you know what that means? Yep, I'm 10 days late with announcing this year's awards. You actually lucky you're getting them this year. I was this close to not bothering. I sat down several times and just couldn't bring myself to write anything. Until now.

As always the awards are based on what I remember being the best stuff from the past year, rather than what actually might have been best or what was actually released this year.

Anyway, enough of the preamble. On with the awards...

Toyology review: Lego Cargo Heliplane

There's really no competition for the best toy of all time. Without a doubt it's Lego, who've been producing bricks since 1949 and, despite the current trend of looking down on plastic toys, is a firm favourite with everyone across the world.

With the abundance of 'themed' Lego sets - you can get everything from Star Wars to Lord of the Rings to The Simpsons in Lego form now, not to mention Chima, Friends, Castle etc - it's rare that we buy a 'basic' Lego City set so it was a nice change to receive this one for review from Toys R Us.

Plus it comes with a Lego chainsaw!
