Big Screen Hearts Review

Big Screen Hearts

When I bought this for a low price, I knew it was a Radica and I own several other of their handheld electronic games and really like them. I have a knee issue which requires me to challenge myself, off my feet, and all these games are perfect.
I didn't know how to play Hearts until I went back to the computer and practiced there. I am so proud now that I can play this game ! Hearts is not difficult to learn. I am an adult and this is a card game.
Play Hearts on your computer and if you like it, you'll love the take along ( about 4 x 6 in.) version of the game. The cards are big and easy to read. The controls are easy to use and the game is lighted.
Check out all the prices, because I think they are all the same game. It has been fine for me to learn Hearts, but if you already know the game, you'll love it. Good for older people or low vision, too.

LEGO Star Wars ARC-170 Starfighter (8088) Review

As always, Amazon delivered the product in 2 days with Prime membership.
The LEGO 8088 Arc-170 is a remodeled and updated version of the original starfighter from set 7259 (now discontinued). This current model has a much longer wingspan and is overall bigger, with smaller pieces resulting in a more intricate design and tighter fit. The color palette is also very nice, however, the set does come with stickers, which I have chosen not to apply. Bear in mind that the three cockpit windows are technically blank, and the white window separation is achieved through stickers.
In the core of the Arc-170 is an exceptionally clever LEGO brick engine, composed of 2 interior gears; turning it lowers/raises the wings, reminiscent of the X-Wing. I personally feel the price tag for this set is a bit on the high side in terms of bricks:price ratio, but the well engineered engine mechanic is no doubt the cause of this.
When purchasing this set, one is essentially paying a premium for the additional labor cost used for design. Of the more recent Star Wars sets, this is the only one to incorporate Technic pieces on this scale.
Comes with 4 minifigs [2 clone pilots, the Jedi (whose head is made of rubber), and 1 astrodroid].
Conclusion: There are much better LEGO Star Wars models out there if you're looking for a good bricks:minifigs:price ratio. However, if you're interested in a more technical set that "moves" with not just wheels and kinetic energy, this is for you.

The heavily armored, multi-purpose ARC-170 starfighter is perfect for scouting missions and leading raids on the Separatist Droid Army. Take the battle to the Separatists by unfolding the wings to attack position and firing flick missiles at enemy droid starfighters! Includes two clone pilots, Jedi Master Kit Fisto and R4-P44 astromech droid mini-figures.
