Angry Birds New Toy Range Review (Sent by Jazwares).

This Summer toy manufacturer Jazwares have released a brand new range of Angry Birds toys to tie in with recent Angry Birds 2 movie release, and we've been sent a bundle for review. We've been sent 1 x Feature Plush, 1 x Game Pack and 1 x Catablind (Splat Ball)...

Excuse the pyjamas! Summer holidays are for relaxing... and throwing things at the door! I will start with the Splat Ball, or Catablind. We've been sent a green Angry Bird Piggy and he's proven very popular with my youngest.

I always discourage my children from throwing these at the ceiling, but somehow they always 'accidentally' end up there. At least we are in no doubts that it sticks well!


He's also had to have a wash about 15 times. It's quite a skill to get him to stick to the door and roll downwards - my 9 yo hasn't managed it yet.

The Game Pack (Or Mission Pack) contains 5 Angry Birds toys with moving faces. They all have a large button on the bottom and when you press it, they turn angry.

Although they are meant to look angry when you press the button, I can't help feeling like some of them just look like they are grinning...

The plastic is really good quality and although they're very small with rubber hair etc. they're hard and I wouldn't encourage throwing them. Included in the pack are 2 stand up cards, which my kids use as targets to roll the Angry Birds towards.


Also included in the Angry Birds Game Pack is a QR Code to expand your gameplay and add a bit of AR (Augmented Reality). Selected Angry Birds toys come with these 'digital unlock features'. Scan the product and unlock exclusive game content in the free downloadable app, Angry Birds Explore. It's great for fans because there is a lot to play with and it's varied - AR bringing the Angry Birds into your world, plus games, face changers and more.

The final item we've been sent is the 23cm Red Feature Plush. He's big and cuddly and supersoft - an ideal size for any child to hug. Packaging is great - almost entirely card, although he does have a cable tie at the back and tags on his feet.


The detail is good and the quality is really nice. There are no loose threads or unfinished edges which can fray.


If you press the plushie's hand then he makes a selection of noises - mainly completely unintelligible. He sounds like a grumpy parent getting out of bed in the morning!

The Feature Plush comes with 'demo batteries', which can often last a long time and I think they will in this case because the speech only activates for a couple of seconds. For replacement you need 3 x AAA batteries and a small Phillips screwdriver, but it's very easy to do using the inspection hatch on his back, just above his fluffy bird tail.

My boys are very happy with their new toys and so am I. Jazwares' Angry Birds toys are well made and a fair price, and will definitely please a lot of Angry Birds fans this Christmas.

    1. It is a very cute plush! The noises are soooo random - none of it makes any sense. It's exactly like the game :D
