How to Train your Dragon Toys

There are so many amazing films out this year.  One of them being ‘How To Train Your Dragon – The Hidden World’. We love the ‘How to Train your Dragon‘  franchise and we also love How To Train Your Dragon merchandise.

Giant Fire Breathing Toothless

Lights and Sounds Toothless

Grimmel & Deathgripper.

To celebrate the release of the new film we were sent a Giant Fire Breathing Toothless, Lights and Sounds Toothless and Grimmel & Deathgripper. If I am being honest regardless of the fast that my girls enjoy the ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ franchise I was not sure how they would respond to the toys.

They have never been the kind of girls to play with dragons (their choice not mine). When choosing a toy from the toy shop I can firmly say that they wouldn’t initially choose these toys. However when I showed these these products to them they were delighted, asking could the play straight away.

The Giant Fire Breathing Toothless and the Lights and  Sounds Toothless were without a doubt a big hit, the giant fire breathing toothless was huge measuring at  20 inches long and with it’s shimmering blue colour it looked pretty impressive!!

It comes with a water dropper, two plasma blast projectiles, and an extra water tank (it also requires batteries which are not included). The Giant Fire Breathing Toothless and the Lights and  Sounds Toothless instructions are really easy to follow.  Add  water to the tank which then creates a magical dragon breath (this is activated by pushing a button behind the dragon’s ear). it is really easy to do and my girls were very impressed.

The Lights and Sounds Toothless was also a perfect addition. This was smaller than the Giant Fire Breathing Toothless. With a simple press on the button on its back, it starts flashing blue and making a dragon noise. It also has beautiful fabric wings that pop open via a button on the back although we did find these quite difficult to slot back in.

Grimmel & Deathgripper

We have also received Grimmel & Deathgripper so Alfie was able to join in the fun. The Grimmel figure is the perfect size to ride on the back of the dragon. He comes with removable crossbow, dressed in his armour he is ready to take battle! Like the other dragons Deathgripper is really flexible with its movement. His wings move up and down as does his tail.

The most exciting feature for my children was the projectile – you place it into the dragons mouth, and with a pull on his left leg it shoots out – this provided lots of giggles in our house!! I am sure you can imagine how many times we done this!

I am really impressed with these toys. Interactive with little gadgets that my girls loved to mess around with. A dragon that has real smoke is pretty impressive. All that said I do need to add that they are quite fiddly at times and you need an adult to help with some aspects. If you are fans of the films then I would recommend these toys. It was also lovely to see my girls play with something a little different. Using their imaginations and creating their own little ‘How to Train a Dragon’ story. They have now got their eyes on some How to Train Your Dragon soft toys so they can take them to bed with them!

We have been sent these items in return for a honest review. Available from The Entertainer.

  1. Our kids love this movie franchise! In fact, we have an all black cat named Ozzy, but our kids have decided he looks like Toothless lol!

  2. The last movie scared my kids in theaters so we’ve been hesitant to go. I may love them more than my kids. The toys look great, too.

  3. My son watched that movie last weekend with his uncle and he said it was great. He was so excited telling me all about it.

  4. Giant Fire Breathing Toothless, Lights and Sounds Toothless and Grimmel & Deathgripper is an amazing toy! I bet my niece would love to get her hands on it 🙂

  5. I have never seen the film 🙁 I don’t have children myself, but will share this post with a few of my friends who do. I am sure they’ll find it very useful – their kids loved the film! x
