Does he like games? The Bot Shots may be up his ally and maybe yours. Ideal bonding :)

*EDIT* Since you're in Ireland that may pose a problem...
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)

Weapon: Null-Ray Rifle
You could get him a Rescue Bots figure or two. They're EXTREMELY easy to transform (usually only requiring you to pull a lever or two). I bought a few for my 2 year old nephew last year and he still loves them. You can find them pretty much anywhere. There are currently six Transforming figures; Boulder, Blades, Chase, Bumblebee, Inferno, and Optimus Prime. If your nephew is a fan of the movies or any of the recent animated series, then Optimus Prime and/or Bumblebee would be excellent choices. But, to be perfectly honest, they're all pretty great. My nephew and I have a blast playing with them on the carpet. :grin:

I guess the only thing left is a good pencil\eraser set. Best Uncle EVER :KREMZEEK:
Really a 4 year old is gonna basically like getting almost anything. Walk down the toy isle and see what they have: Beyblade, Transformers, Hot Wheels cars.

I have a coworker with a 4 year old and he was telling me they've been watching the old G1 cartoon and his son loves G1 or as they call it gun Megatron.
I gave him a Legends gun Megatron to give him and I guess he flipped out.
Even the small things young kids enjoy.

I once heard a story from a fellow collector. He said that when he was about 5 or 6 years old, his dad's friend gave him a small train transformer. When he got the transformer, he absolutely fell in love with it, and soon, transformers as a whole. He pretty much credits his plastic crack addiction to the day his dad's friend gave him that little figure. So ya never know, Discharge. You may have unwittingly created a long time Transformers fanatic! :KREMZEEK:
