Max Liquidator Eliminator ONE




Play a practical joke on all unsuspecting swimmers with the Max Liquidator Eliminator by Prime Time Toys! This wild pool toy is a water shooter cleverly disguised as a swim aid for maximum surprise! Reaches up to 30 feet. Comes in an assortment of different colors.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Loads of Fun!
We have four of these and always take them to friend’s pools. They are ALWAYS used heavily. Kids from 3 and up can easily fill this with water and shoot it. It is easier than many of the other hydro blaster type toys that are hard to fill.

It is important not to shoot someone in the face though since the water can come out hard and sting.

The Styrofoam on the outside makes it soft and lightweight. The water squirts really far and keeps kids occupied for hours.

The smaller version (mini-max liquidator) works just as well, it is just half the size.

5 Stars Lots of fun for all ages!
We bought 4 of these because we had used something similar at a rental home we stayed at. We recently brought these to a picnic on a hot day. They were a HIT! I was surprised at how long a small bucket of water lasted and the kids were occupied and cool for the entire picnic! They LOVED these. The kids ranged in age from around 3 to 8 and were all interacting and having fun. They even got some of the adults in on the action. I definitely recommend getting more than one! They are compact, easy to use, and provide hours of entertainment. I’m just sorry these particular ones are no longer available. We would definitely buy more!

5 Stars AWESOME fun for boys and girls
This toy is a perfect toy for 3-10yr olds ( girls and boys – in the pool or the backyard with a bucket of water for refills……a ton of fun and they don’t even look or operate like guns! We put several out for a block party and before you knew it children that did not know each other were laughing and running around. CAUTION – you can’t just buy one (no fun!) buy at least two and preferably one for the whole family!

5 Stars Water guns and Grandma
My grandkids and also Grandpa enjoyed this water gun – so did the other children at the pool – they kept grabbing it and had so much fun I had to ask for it back before we left. As far as educational value – figuring out velocity vs. distance – how far away can you get and still hit your target! Highly recommend it but don’t get just one – unfair.

4 Stars Wholesome Fun
My son loved this toy. It is durable and easy to use. Lots of fun at a low cost.

4 Stars Our son LOVES this toy!
Our son is only 20 mos. old and he’s totally figured this one out. He loves anything with balls and the outdoors. He figured out how the ball drop feature works and can actually hit the ball with the club. The clubs are a little big for him, but he doesn’t care. I love that there is storage for everything.

4 Stars Great toy to introduce the game of golf!
This is a great little golf set. Love the way the balls drop right onto the tee. My daughter is not yet 2 and gets excited to play with it! My only complaint is the club handles tend to slip out the back of the ‘bag’. Otherwise super cute and fun! Comes in pink also.

5 Stars Great golf set
This toy is so much fun for my 18 month old son. He loves it. It offers great motor skill challenges. Thanks

5 Stars fun toy, not so educational
This toy is really great for kids to play around with. It’s safe and works at this age group. If you are looking for a kid to learn something, not so much, but really helps with hand eye coordination.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars You can’t go wrong with YAHTZEE!
If you haven’t played Yahtzee before, where have you been?? I remember playing this while growing up and still love it to this day. It is a game that anyone can play and great for family and friends. I picked it up recently, because we had lost ours in a move and the kids kept asking for it again. We enjoy playing it on weekends or evenings instead of flipping through the channels on the TV. It’s also nice that there is no limit to how many people can play. A TRUE CLASSIC of a game that it a must for your collection.

5 Stars Great Family Game! Highly Recommended!
“Yahtzee” remains one of the all time great family games. We have a lot of more complicated and newer games, but more often than not no one can agree on which game to play and we tend to default back to Yahtzee.

The rules are not too compliacted and the game play moves fairly quickly, but still allows for talking around the table.

Highly recommended!

5 Stars Great beginner set
My 8 year old loves this game she received for her birthday. It’s a noisy family game but lots of fun. I think 8 years is a very good age for this game and just about anyone adult or kid can play this game. It’s really nice that the rules aren’t too complicated.

5 Stars Entertaining for Both Adults and Children
Yahtzee is an absorbing game that can be enjoyed by adults as well as by children. If your company has an annual Christmas toy drive for children who would otherwise not receive a present, this would be a great gift to add to the pile. In addition to being fun, this game would help disadvantaged children develop their math skills, learn to estimate probabilities of getting various dice combinations, and hone their strategic thinking abilities.

3 Stars Yahtzee Game
This is an old school game that enjoyable for the family, however the cheap way they make these games nowadays, is just plain cheap..!!

Cranium

February 24th, 2010

Cranium




For 4 or more players

Cranium is an amazing party game that brings friends and family together through 14 fun and riotous activities. You won’t believe what your friends and family can do as your team hums, whistles, sketches, sculpts, acts, puzzles and even spells backwards to win.

Cranium’s outrageous activities are organized into four card decks: Creative Cat will have you sketching, sculpting with clay and even drawing with your eyes closed. Star Performer asks you to hum or whistle a tune, impersonate a celebrity or act out a clue. Word Worm requests you unscramble words, spell challenging ones, guess definitions, fill in the blanks and even spell backwards. Data Head stimulates your gray matter by testing your knowledge of trivia with provocative true/false queries and challenging multiple choice questions.

5 Stars cranium
I play this game with friends over 65 and it is fun because it challenges the mind and makes for a lot of laugher.

5 Stars Lots of fun for the entire family

This is a fantastic game for the entire family …… we loooooove it !!!

5 Stars Brain Power
We bought this as a gift for our recent college grad daughter… has provided several “forced family fun” hours for both us and other families….. great selection… will likely buy others in the CRANIUM series.

4 Stars good game, but a lot of luck involved
I really like the star performer and the drawing section, but the word and data sections are really a lot of luck, if you get a question you know that you win, but if you don’t there is not a lot you can do about it. Still a fun game to play. I would still like to try the new edition, maybe there have been some improvements.

5 Stars Great game for adults.
This is a great game for a group of adults. I say this because some of the questions are from things from the 80′ 90′ and some from before. We played a lot in christmas and had a blast although we noticed that some people who had played the game before new the answers to questions that were just to strange for anyone in the group to know. I found now that to avoid that cranium has some card packages you can buy to update your game!! Thats a great idea! Loving cranium just bought the WOW version of the game, as soon as we play it I will review it also.

5 Stars Lots of Fun!
I bought three of these puzzles for my three year old son. He absolutely loves them. The pieces are a great size and the picture has a lot going on. This was a great purchase.

5 Stars Our four year old Jack can do it,,,,
I was a little worried that this puzzle was a going to be to advanced for a four year old but once he got the boarder finished, he was on a roll. Great puzzle, beautiful colors !!

4 Stars Fun, colorful puzzle. Great for little hands ready for harder puzzles.
My 4-year old son has had this puzzle for three weeks, and probably assembled it 15 times already. He absolutely loves it and can do more and more of it without adult help each time. We had several of Melissa and Doug’s 48 piece floor puzzles and they were becoming easy for him. This was a great transition–the floor size of the puzzle is the same, but the pieces are about half the size, and the design is a little more complex. As with all M&D puzzles, the glossy finish and thick, sturdy pieces make them easy to handle, and hard to damage.

5 Stars Two boys’ review: Share the treasure with this floor puzzle
Melissa and Doug floor puzzles are very popular in our household. This particular puzzle, on the heels of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” trilogy, is one of their favorites.

We have two children, both younger than 6-years old, and highly recommend this puzzle for kids of the same age. The pieces are easy for young children to handle and the puzzle is very durable after repeated uses.

5 Stars Great Puzzle
My son loves puzzles and at the age of 6 he was able to put the puzzle together without any problems.

The puzzle is constructed very well and should last a very long time.
