My little cousins turning 3 next month and I have a huge ass influence on him and he's loves yelling 'TRANSFORMERS!' ever since he played around with the Cyberstompin Bumblebee but he doesn't actually have any Transformer toys, so I figured I'd get him one or two. But I'm having a problem deciding what I should get him, I need help deciding if I should get him that Robot Heroes set that has like 5 or 6 figures, some FAB figures, or the Cyberstompin Bumblebee he fell in love with. Any suggestions?

If he is only turning 3, then Cyber Stomping is possibly the best way to go.

If he likes cars at all, you could nab him a Cyber Slammin' figure or 2, They are quite durable, and the littlies cant seem to get enough of the "pop-up" transformation. A Barricade I got to entertain visiting relatives has taken more punishment than any toy should, and just keeps going.

However a good smooth surface (preferably floor) is needed for them to work best.

cyber stomping and cyber slammer is my best choiuce, I think you should nab him one of each, like a bumblebee cyber stomper, BB cyber slammer, and barricade and bumblebee robot heroes since he fell in love with the cyber stomper. Maybe he'll grow up liking bumblebee

I have a 2 year old cousin and he has a ton of Robot Heroes. All I know is that he's already lost some of the pieces, but loves them so much. I don't know what the other things you were suggesting, but they might just be a better choice.

Well I got my little cousin barricade, he's 6 maybe too out of range, he kept it intact until my poopy cousin(6) that no one likes came and broke him in to 4. I was thinking hmm, I shoulda just helped another collecotr. oh well

I'd go with Cyber Stompin or FABS, with Robot Heroes he would most probably break them.

Great idea.

Just a quick note on the Cyber Slammers: if you're going to get him one, it might not be a bad idea to get him two (different characters, obviously), so he can crash them into each other. I had two Throttlebots when I was a kid for that basic reason (I think I still have them, but they're in storage). Of course, I was tall even at that young an age, so I'm not quite sure how the practicalities would wind up for someone shorter.

All of these are great ideas. If he's exitable and loves to smash and bash, I'd lean more towards Cyber Slammers or CSBB. If he's more of a calm child, go with Robot Heroes, FAB, or Softi n' Slumb.
