Gogos Crazy Bones Toy Shopping - A Check List For Parents

With Gogos Crazy Bones taking school playgrounds by storm, you will soon be hunting high and low for these colourful little characters. If you are just starting out buying these toys, here is a quick check list to point you in the right direction.

• Gogos Crazy Bones are little sticker size packets of mini plastic figures. You will not be able to see which figures you are buying until the packets are bought and opened.
• The packets are quite cheap at only £1 but you need enough Gogos to play the game properly - one packet will not do!
• There are hundreds of these little characters now covering four series. The latest series is series 4, called Power and comes in blue packets. Half of the Power Gogos are metallic.
• If you can only buy older series the following information details the order they were released: series 1 (red packets), series 2 called Evolution (yellow packets) and series 3 called Explorer (green packets).
• Each packet of series 1-3 includes three Gogos and three stickers. The series 4 packets only have two Gogos and two trading cards rather than stickers. If your child is expecting a certain number of Gogos, make sure you buy enough series 4 packets so they are not disappointed.
• If your child does not know how to play with the little figures in one of the many rolling, catching or throwing games, make sure you buy a starter pack or one of the books available to teach them the basics.
• To avoid your child losing these little toys all over your house and you stepping on them inadvertently, buy a storage solution. There are two available - a metal tin that comes with 10 Gogos only available when bought with the tin, and a smaller bag that comes with one packet of Gogos. The bag will hold about 30 Gogos and the tin a lot more.

I hope the above checklist has given you a clue as to what you are buying and specifically what to buy. The Gogos craze is not going away any time soon.
