4.0 out of 5 stars Basilisk Attack Playset, November 5, 2002

= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Harry Potter Electronic BASILISK Attack Action Figure Playset (Mattel 2002) (Toy)

The toy is discribed as "Harry Potter Basilisk Playset". The only problem is that there is no Harry Potter that comes with the playset! In order to fight the Basilisk you need Harry Potter with his sword! The box has a very attactive picture of Harry Potter fighting the Basilisk; but in small print it says action figure must be purchased separately. The web site does not say "action figures must be purchased separately". ... By the way, read the small print, not all the action figures shown on the box go with the Basilisk Attack Playset, nor do they tell you which ones do! Youre left to figure out that yourself. ...

4.0 out of 5 stars Action Figure Should Be Included, January 17, 2003

My main problem with this and other related toys is the necessity of purchasing separate action figures. I think the manufacturer could at least include the Harry Potter figure. Not only does this create added expense. It is often difficult to locate the accompanying figures, either in the same store or other stores. Otherwise, this is is fun toy for imagination and laughs.

This toy is good, my little brother liked it. He was just disapointed that it didn't come with the Harry Potter action figure. My little brother got a kick out of beating the snake especially because he just saw the movie, Harry Potter 2. The only bad thing is after a few tries, the head started having trouble falling to the side, like its supposed to when you hit its tongue. Of course, the is no educational value in cutting a snake's tongue, but I think that this is a pretty good toy.
