Sylvia recently received a fantastic new toy from Hasbro called the FurReal Friends Torch My Blazin Dragon. I first heard of the new animatronic dragon a few months ago advertised on tv and Sylvia mentioned that it was super cute.
A few weeks later we were sent the Torch Dragon to review and he has lived up to our expectations. The Torch dragon has a really fabulous feature. He breathes fire-like vapour, toasts marshmallows, makes sounds and responds to touch.
You can place water in a small compartment in the back of the Dragons head and when you turn the button on, he can and will breath the water out as a vapour which looks really quite realistic. Sylvia found this feature fun. What makes it even more exciting is that the Torch Vapour when it touches the marshmallow turns it red. That is really quite cool.
I was in hospital when Sylvia first opened her toy and she was so super excited to show me all the features and demonstrate the marshmallow toasting for me.
If you touch the nose of Torch or rub his tummy, he will respond with cute dragon sounds and bat his eyelids, and move his body. He is a cute and fun toy to interact with and Sylvia really found him exciting.
The dragons’ legs are also able to move and so he can change positions when required. I do like this fantastic toy from Hasbro as does my daughter. she has been toasting the marshmallow repeatedly and feeding it to Torch as well as just having general fun with her new toy.
I think the fact the marshmallow turns red with water is really educational and scientific and has opened up a new science concept for Sylvia and I to learn about together.
I really do like the potential to extend her learning through her interest in her pet dragon. Torch has also caught the interest of Casper one of our Bichon’s.
It’s certainly one I’m glad we were able to review and is now a part of Sylvia’s collection of new and lovely play items.
