Review on Unleashing the Power: DC Comics Transforming Exclusive Accessories by Matt Mosley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A few defects on my

I ordered this for my Batman obsessed 4 year old and it's a huge hit. I'm talking about hours of play and that's great when friends drop by because there are so many places to play. The elevator is really cool and there are different rates for each stop. The different levels you can stop on from bottom to top are the garage level, the armory, the rogue containment level, the engine room, the evidence lab, the infirmary, and the flying computer. There are ladders, ropes, hatches, ramps and all sorts of fun stuff. It would have been a 5 star toy if it weren't for 2 flaws. The first and most annoying problem is that the lower left quadrant of the doors won't close. Without breaking the loop. I think we just have one warped block, but none of the other doors do, and it really lowers the overall quality for me. My son can't even close it himself, I have to do it for him. The second problem is that the prison door cannot be opened without falling off its hinges. Everything else moves and runs very smoothly, but I don't think a $100 toy should have these problems on day one. Assembly was easy, took me about an hour including applying the decals. I suggest making decals before assembly. It also requires AAA batteries, which are not included. They're also much easier to put in place before putting everything together. Overall my son loves it. As an adult I'm disappointed that the doors don't close and open properly but everything else fits really well and it looks really cool in my son's room with his other Batman toys, posters etc. Me
