Advantages: Provides hours of fun, loads for your money, suites a variety of ages

Disadvantages: String gets caught on magnet of helicopter

I brought the Tomy Aqua Fun Action Rescue Centre for my son for his birthday, and it seems to be the only bath toy he has ever really played with (usually he just sits in the bath tipping water over his head and doing lots of splashing).

I brought the Action Rescue Centre from Tesco it was on special offer for £7.50 (what a bargain) but I think it usually costs £14.50-£15.00. I have to say I would not actually mind paying the full price for because you get so much for your money.

The toy is for ages 3+ but I feel you could probably use it a little earlier.

The toy comes in a box with Tomy written in the corner and pictures of two divers a man in a boat and the centre itself.

The toy consists of two characters one diver and one rescue man, a station that has two platforms and sticks to the wall with suckers, and at the top there is a hole with 2 flaps and a button and when you put one of the men on the hole and press the button the flaps open and the man drops through to the bottom. There is a boat where both characters can sit in and there is a helicopter where the rescue man can sit in. The helicopter has a magnetic winch on that comes down and can pick up the characters out of the water if it connects with their head. Last but not least if that was not enough the toy also comes with a character of a shark.

This game can be played for hours rescuing the men from the sea, saving one from the shark with the boat or helicopter, landin the helicopter on the platform and the boat can also fit under the station so when you drop the man down the hole when you press the button he lands in the boat.

This bath toy will provide hours of fun, and even my older nephews have enjoyed playing with this when they stay over and they are 6 & 7.

The only disadvantage to this toy is sometimes the string for the magnet on the helicopter gets caught up and can be a bit fiddly to get out (but it is not a major problem)

Summary: Great toy will last a good few years, great for imagination
