Young Jedi

Trip with Frodo to Toys 'R' Us today to buy a Birthday present for nephew "Little Boots" who we're visiting tomorrow. (His Birthday is 31 August, the same as Caligula hence "Little Boots").

Little Boots is into GeoMag, so I bought him a 46 piece set of flat panels, a 42 piece glow in the dark set and 2 20 piece red and blue sets.

I also purchased a Millenium Falcon from the Hasbro Star Wars "Galactic Heroes" range. These are realistic but chunky models, without too many fiddly pieces, so ideal for small playful hands. Frodo already has Luke Skywalkers X-Wing from the same range, which he loves. The MF is being put away for Christmas (early shopping saves disappointment). Also bought a small Obi Wan and Darth Vader figure set from the same range.

Thought Frodo wasn't paying attention when I bought them, but this afternoon he was sitting with a towel on his head saying "I'm Obi Wan Kenobi". (It was a green towel, so he looked more like Yoda to me).
