Zoinks!! Are You Ready for Another Mystery with These New SCOOB! Toys?

As a child there was nothing quite like a Saturday morning on the sofa with my sister to watch Scooby and his friends catch the bad guys. It seems pretty unbelievable that this cartoon is fifty years old and still as popular with children today.

As we are stuck in lockdown we love watching films during our breaks from homeschooling, but there are only so many times you can watch princesses. So one afternoon I decided to watch Scooby Doo: The Movie with my daughter and she absolutely loved it. As a child this film is the best thing ever, as an adult Fred and his one liners are so cringe but too funny. Pretty much since that afternoon my daughter loves watching Scooby and the gang solving mysteries and unveiling the bad ghouls and ghosts. It such a classic and still, fifty years on, is loved by so many children. 


So as you can imagine my daughter was really happy to learn that there is going to be a brand new film SCOOB! currently being launched in the US only. It will be coming to the UK very soon. However, in the meantime we have had a couple of toys sent over for her to play with. My daughter was kindly send the SCOOB! Action Figure Multi Pack and The Mystery Machine Playset - she very eager to open them. 

SCOOB! The Mystery Machine Playset, £20

The Mystery Machine Playset was the first toy to catch her eye and I have to admit I was excited to get it out of the box too. But that was a challenge in itself - it was soooo hard to get out of the box! None of my daughter's toy have ever been that difficult before and after a good ten minute trying to take off the packaging and those annoying plastic wires, I needed a screwdriver anyway. Once The Mystery Machine was free my daughter loved role playing with Shaggy and Super Scoob in the Mystery Machine. 


The Mystery Machine was a complete replica of the iconic van meaning that my daughter could get really imaginative with her role play. The Mystery Machine opens up to create a larger playset area and provide a lot more room for more mystery adventures for Scooby and his friends. Each side of the playset comes down and slots back into place when needed, but there is a way that they need go - my daughter didn't realise and was trying to force then back up. 



In this set you also got a 5'' Shaggy figurine and he fitted perfectly in the front of the Mystery Machine, and you will be able to get in another Mystery Crew in there too. But it is a shame that it the cab doesn't open up completely, so you need to either slide them through the top or in the window. The figurines with the selection of toys all have poseable arms and legs and it can be a little tricky to position them correctly in the front of the Mystery Machine. 





SCOOB! Action Figure Pack, £10

SCOOB! Action Multi Pack included five figurines: Super Scoob, Shaggy, Blue Falcon, Dick Dastardly and Two Rottens: Dusty Rotten and Black Rotten - they are a great addition for playtime with the Mystery Machine. All the figurines are 5'' and all have poseable arms and legs making play time a lot of fun. All the figurines have intricate detailing on them especially with the Two Rottens that looked really old and dirty, even my daughter asked if they were dirty and tried to clean them. We was a little disappointed that Super Scoob was too big to fit in the front cab of the Mystery Machine, however he could easily be put in the back of the van so it didn't bother my daughter too much. 




The SCOOB! Mystery Machine Playset is only £20 and the SCOOB! Action Mulit Pack is £10 which seems really reasonable for the hours of fun you can have. There are a number of different toys in the SCOOB! collection which are all compatible with one another, including some plush toys and much more. You can get these SCOOB! toys from Argos, Smyth Toys, and Amazon.
