An ideal Lego gift for any aged racecar fan, allowing them to get up-close and personal with the ultimate dream car. This amazingly detailed (down to the floor mats!) 1:17 model of the incredible Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4icon [$60] comes with enough bricks to build an authentic coupe or Spider Gallardo, featuring a retractable roof that folds into the back. It is fun for boys but also makes a sweet display model for men whether they are looking to refresh a boring bookcase in their office or adding a little twist to their game room décor.

Son (7 yrs.) says: When I built the Lego car it was hard when I got to the doors but I finished it anyway. It was fun and exciting when I finished it, it took me one night and two days. It looks awesome!

Imagine no longer with the R/C Airsoft Battle Tank [$40-$90], and blast the enemy in your front yard with the powerful air motor turret on this R/C tank (uses self generated compressed air). Direct from Japan, this R/C battle tank is ready to bring your childhood battle simulation dreams to life in the comfort of your home or office.

Mom says: This toy is definitely a draw, our whole block shows up as soon as it appears outside.  There really seems to be no end to the fun our boys have shooting at targets, but be sure to have everyone wear protective eye gear.  Also, make sure your child is old enough to understand how to use this toy safely.

Son (7 yrs) says: This tank is my favorite remote control toy to play with outdoors. The best part is being able to shoot targets. I shoot cardboard targets and I can even shoot my action figure.
