First Peek at Hasbro's Relaunched Millennium Falcon

This, is Hasbro's new Millennium Falcon, unveiled to ExtremeTech's Brian Heater in a Manhattan hotel yesterday. The only reason the toy giant reworked it was because the original mold broke, which made us chuckle. Thirty percent larger than the original, it's got room for up to 18 action figures—and Han and Chewy (the only two characters I like) are thrown in for free. You can hear the late Sir Alec Guinness' disembodied voice Obi-wanning it, and dazzle yourself with the flashing lights, but cross your legs, Star Wars fans, because it's not out until July. There's also a whole bunch of Clone Wars merch on its way, including an AT-TE walker and some helmets, check out ExtremeTech for a video of that in action. [ExtremeTech]

Stunning Hasbro Millennium Falcon Jumps Out of Hyperspace

This is THE Millennium Falcon toy that never arrived when every 9-yo kid wanted it in 1977: the 2.5-foot Hasbro's Star Wars Legacy Collection Millennium Falcon, worthy of the most mind-blowing SW collections. It's probably the most realistic Falcon toy you can buy this side of an actual prop, with LEDs everywhere, sound, movable parts, and absolutely every detail imaginable except real engines. And when I say every detail, I mean every single detail, as you will see in the full hi-res gallery after the jump. More »

HULK LIKE OPERATION GAME!

Remember "Operation," that buzzing fishing-for-organs game we played with as kids? Well, Hulk fans will soon be able to dig around inside their hero with a pair of electrified tweezers too, when Hasbro brings out their Hulk-themed version. Clumsy surgical action will make his eyes glow green and he'll howl apparently. What do you think of that, Hulk? HULK WARN YOU, ANESTHETIC BETTER BE REAL STRONG!

Kota the Triceratops Is Amazing, Eats Deep-Fried Pleos for Breakfast

I'm in awe with Kota The Triceratops Dinosaur, a $300 fully articulated 40-inch-long robot in the shape of a real-sized baby triceratops that, according to Playskool, any kid can ride. Yes. Full size. Baby. Triceratops. Riding. Robot. Really, this thing looks so cool that makes the Pleo look like a bag of bricks. More »

Hasbro Room Tech Clock Wirelessly Wakes the Lamps in Your Room

Hasbro's Room Tech Clock, which looks like a mix between an iPod and a Goomba, is an alarm clock with a wireless link to the shroom-shaped Room Tech Lamp. When the alarm goes off, two things happen; the alarm clock will either stomp its fists on the table making an awful racket, play back the radio or pump out tunes from a connected MP3 player. Secondly, the Room Tech Lamp, which is styled like a shroom-Martian hybrid, will be activated, bringing illumination to your dank, dingy room. More »

Exclusive Video: Hasbro Tooth Tunes MP3 Toothbrush

Hasbro's Tooth Tunes toothbrushes have an MP3 player built in. Ya, they use bone-conduction to rattle the sound through your teeth for 3 minutes, making sure you brush for the American Dental Association's recommended time. The bristles are a bit hard, the head a bit small, and the handle sucks for reverse grip action, but I found it pretty damn cool to brush my teeth while listening to Black Eyed Peas. I wish you could swap songs, but they've got a pretty good variety of music. Gallery below, video above, and 18 song list, Including the Rocky theme, KISS, Queen, and Destiny's Child, after the jump.

Hasbro Projector, PVR, Other Gadgets for Kids

Man, kids today have all the luck (and I'm not just saying that because I feel old and crotchety). First they get tailored-for-kids cellphones and video cameras, now we have Hasbro churning out an entire entertainment system that's kid-friendly. We're talking a fully-working projector with built-in DVD player here people. The Hasbro Zoombox DVD Entertainment Projector displays images sixty inches or larger, and AV cables allow game consoles to be connected as well. Sure the quality may not be that great but at less than $300, this is probably the most low-cost projector on the shelves. It'll be sold exclusively in New York and online through the HasbroShop this December, and be available nationwide next year. More »
