Why Disney's Playmation Will Be Top on Your Kids' Holiday List

Even if your child isn't the biggest Marvel fan, they'll get the hang of the Marvel starter pack (a Hulk Gamma Gear version will be released soon, a Star Wars version is set for release next year, and a Frozen version after that). The box states that Playmation is for kids ages 6 and up. I played with my 6- and 9-year-olds, and both got the hang of it pretty fast.

That said, my 6-year-old had some trouble deploying the Palm Cannon function. His arm just wasn't long enough to effectively maneuver the Repulsor Gear in the necessary motions. He still had a blast with it, but he was frustrated that he couldn't do one of the key movements.
