Definitely the right Toys of the Year [Bestof2010]

Radio controlled excavators, long-range snowball launchers and entirely-automatic Nerf rifles – 2010 was an outstanding year for those who take their playtime seriously. These are among the most exciting toys we could get our hands on.

1. Solving the Smallest Rubik Cube On the earth
At 0.39 inches (10mm) here’s the smallest Rubik Cube on the planet and the smallest piece of the 80s you could have for your hands-this side of Simon Le Bon’s fake eyelashes.



2. TRON Controllers Make Any Game a TRON Game
Prince of Persia, Call of Duty, Red Dead Redemption-it doesn’t matter what you’re playing. Just know that it’ll be better with one of PDP’s glowing TRON controllers.



3. Hurl Snowballs 150 Feet This Winter With These Jai Alai Scoops
I will be able to understand not eager to be the fellow who brings a jai alai xistera to a snowball fight, sure, but that allows you to start tagging up your enemies (neighborhood nine-year-olds) at distances of up to 150 feet, well…



4. Who Needs an Indoor Ball? YOU Do, Apparently
Today’s Nerf guns are exceedingly complex, with automatic firing and reloadable dart magazines. But Nerf’s eureka moment arose from a decidedly more primitive scene: some cavemen chucking boulders around an office.



5. Hawk Eye RC Chopper: Your $65 Personal Spy Drone
Flying an RC helicopter? Sure, that’s fun for a short time. Flying an RC helicopter which will shoot both video and still photos? That’s good for a life-time of creepy stalking memories.



6. Solar Powered Transforming Robot Teaches Your Kids the $64000 Stuff
Namely: the awesomeness of robots. Secondarily: the fun of sustainable energy. The £13.00 T3 Solar Robot/Tank/Scorpion can help impart both of these lessons, guiding your child to a promising future as a sun-harnessing super-scientist (or a robot army-commanding supervillain.)



7. A Working 62-lb Remote-Controlled Excavator Can Hardly Be Called a Toy
Let’s say it is advisable dig yourself up a touch garden or terrorize the local rodentia. Or both! Well, meet the EC280 Excavator. It’s a tiny little monster with a kickass demo soundtrack. Everything about it is ridiculous and beautiful.



8. So Here’s What Nerf Guns Are Like Now, Huh?
After discovering video games, I didn’t really keep up with my old friend Nerf. But last night I got to shoot (and get shot by) the Stampede, a new, fully automatic Nerf rifle with a tripod and replaceable magazines. What!?



9. 10 Classic Sci-Fi Toys
When you grew up inside the 60s or 70s, you grew up with the futuristic creations of Gerry Anderson on the TV. These toy replicas of his designs are screaming to be zoomed across the kitchen table and into the air.



10. Toys With Mental Illnesses-Seriously ” Oh, what gift to supply the bipolar six-year-old nephew this Christmas…I know! These German toys with mental illnesses would please the little tyke. Would he like the depressive turtle Dub, Kroko the water-phobic crocodile, or the personality disorder-affected sheep Dolly?
