Just stand a figure on the red platforms, of which there are eight, turn them, and something cool happens, like watching as a Batsuit vault spins into view or a cell door springs open. With that out the way, let’s take a look at what makes the Imaginext Batcave this year’s must-have toy. If you’re worried about space, don’t forget this set folds in on itself, so when closed it’d be two and a half feet by two feet. They have a lot of give, so if a child bends the arms or legs the wrong way, they won’t instantly break.

The Imaginext Batcave is going to be one of the hottest toys this year, so the chances of it selling out are higher than usual. Batman™ can 'power up' for battle in the power chamber, which lights up the figure with cool sound effects as kids turn the Power Pad. Younger kids really get a kick out of making things move, and Imaginext does a really great job of making fun accessible for youngsters who don’t quite have the same dexterity as older kids. Actually, as a general rule, you’ll never go wrong with superhero toys, especially when it comes to boys.

Kids can help Batman™ and Robin™ prepare for battle and complete missions from this awesome interactive control center, which features more than 200 sounds and character phrases, multi-color lights, and 5 exclusive Imaginext® figures! If so, you’re going to want to add the excellent Imaginext Super Surround Batcave to your gift list.

Featuring three ways to play, the playset can prompt kids' play with security checks from the Batcomputer, super-fun adventure starters featuring some of the biggest baddies, and breaking news about what's happening in Gotham City™. Then kids can tilt the giant bat symbol to move different areas of the playset so Batman™ can jump into action, either launching projectiles or 'flying' off with the Batwing! It’s all designed for younger kids, too, so you don’t need to worry about something being too complex.

Over 2 1/2 feet tall and 4 feet wide, this extra-large playset is sized for big-time battles (and it folds for storage!
