Mighty Beanz Star Wars Collectors Tin

*LOOK OUT FOR A SPIN MASTER TOY BUNDLE GIVEAWAY COMING HERE SOON*

In case you have not been around children recently I will fill you in on the highly and I mean highly collectible Mighty Beanz.

Mighty Beanz are collectible toys manufactured by Moose Enterprises, a corporation headquartered in Melbourne, Australia. Moose launched Mighty Beanz in the Australian market in 2002; the toy launched in the United States that summer.
The website is fantastic with lots to do for kids and competitions too.

In the UK they have just had a huge 2010 release with Spin Master,more than 100 new Mighty Bean characters launch this autumn as well as the Slam and Smash Track, the Mighty Beanz racing track.

Also this autumn, there will be limited edition Mighty Beanz Star Wars Assortment Packs featuring Darth Vader, R2-D2, Chewbacca, Han Solo and more as well as the Star Wars Collector Tin.

Mighty Beanz are small plastic capsules which house a small ball bearing allowing the Beanz to sit in your hand and move and flip. You can race them but I see that most kids now collect and swap them, much like I swapped marbles as well as played with them.

They are bean shaped and hold a certain similarity to the old Mexican jumping beans.

 

Adding Star Wars to the Mighty Beanz range is perhaps the one that causes a ripple in the adult world. Many Star Wars fans and I am married to one are collecting them, they are numbered and as with the whole Beanz range some will be very rare.

 

I love it as a child's toy, they move in a fun way and are really good to roll down a slope. I find it sad that some of these will be kept pristine in a cupboard and never played with, however will maybe make it to a Stars Wars convention in the future or Antiques roadshow in 20 years time.

I received the Star Wars Mighty Tin, its a large Darth Vader version, a perfect choice for the fans. This collectors tin is a boon to children who like to display their prized Beanz and a blessing to  parents across the UK who won't want to be sitting or standing on them and facing tears and tantrums when they disappear into the bowels of the hoover.

 

It says it a case for 40+ Beanz and it holds 42, its greatest lure for any collector are the two exclusive Star Wars Beanz.

 

Its the ideal gift for any boy and a good price too.

The tin sells at around £20 and Star Wars 4 pack of Beanz about £5 which makes it a great Christmas present and further treats at a good price. Age 5+
