Top Gun has been exciting audiences for almost 40 years, and now those fans can recreate their favorite moment from the movie as though they were Maverick or Goose.
Hot Wheels is releasing a set dedicated to the film in honor of the milestone. According to Mattel Creation, “They can recreate the famous inverted flight combat scene. Locked in and ready to rock, this authentic display showcases Maverick and Goose expertly performing the “impossible” as they invert their F-14 Tomcat over an enemy “MiG-28” (behind-the-scenes movie trivia – there’s no such fighter jet, it was actually a repainted F-5 Tiger). The wings move on our F-14, authentically replicating the real jet’s swing-wing design. Aviators, don’t just watch the birdie – become one of the elite and grab this 40th anniversary tribute collectible for yourself.”
The limited-edition Hot Wheels Top Gun 40th Anniversary Set will be available on July 23rd. So, if you have the need for speed, don’t act slowly if you want this set, or you will be Iced out.

Would you play with Little People figures based on 1979’s Alien? |

When I was 7 years old, my father thought it would be funny to make me watch Alien with him. He was wrong. And I got my revenge during my teenage years.
Anyways, had my dad come home with a Little People set based on the Science Fiction movie right after we watched it, I would have cried and had nightmares, even though they are cute as can be.
But that is me. However, will it be other kids who get the limited-edition collector set from their parents? Probably not. Because, as funny as their parents think it would be to do that, they know the consequences if they do. Therefore, they will put their little people to sleep before they play with their new toy.
The set comes with four figures: Ellen Ripley, plus 3 life stages of the alien: the facehugger parasite, the infant chest-burster, and the full-grown Xenomorph.
If this is something you must have, then you can pre-order it today on Amazon for $26.99. They will begin shipping out in August!

The Devil Wears Prada 2 gets little |

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is walking the runway into theaters on May 1st, and they are doing everything to promote the sequel and the original movie’s 20th anniversary.
One of the ways they are doing that is by teaming up with Fisher-Price to release a Little People The Devil Wears Prada playset. The set comes with four figures: Runway magazine editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), Andy (Anne Hathaway), Nigel (Stanley Tucci), and Emily (Emily Blunt), each standing 2.5 inches tall.
This collection is a must for fans of the film. However, I want it just for the Tucci figure. Is that not the cutest thing?
Little People is one of the ways. Another way is that Starbucks released a secret menu dedicated to the four leads. If you can keep a secret, then click here!

Which K-Pop Demon Hunters doll should be Mattel’s next one? |

K-Pop Demon Hunters dominated 2025. However, no one was prepared for the phenomenon, including the toy companies. So they are making up for it now.
Mattel is one of the companies Sony and Netflix teamed up with, and the toy giant needs your help. They are trying to figure out which doll should join HUNTR/X’s Rumi, Mira, and Zoey. Should it be Demon Jinu or Sleeping Bag Mira?
Mattel Creations says, “Jinu differs from the core line as he has new accessories and face deco, skin tone, hands, rooted hair, and a look not featured in the core line with an elevated outfit in premium execution and fabrics.”
While “Mira differs from the core line as she has new accessories and face deco with an elevated outfit look delivered with premium execution and fabrics.”
I am Team Mira. What about you? You have until May 26th at 11:59p PT to vote.

Would you buy your kids a Bridgerton Polly Pocket Compact? |

Netflix has teamed up with several companies to promote Bridgerton season 4. While it makes sense that they collaborated with Loungefly, Dove Beauty, NYX Cosmetics, Williams-Somona, and Funko make sense to me, Mattel does not.
However, the streamer and the toy giant released a Polly Pockets Compact dedicated to the Romantic Soap Opera, and that is perplexing to me.
Why? Because Polly Pockets is a toy for young children, and Bridgerton is for adults. Can you imagine getting it for your daughter, only to have her find the series on Netflix? You are going to have a lot explaining to do! And you won’t be able to do a show-and-tell with Barbie and Ken because Netflix hasn’t asked Mattel to release them… yet.
So I ask again, would you buy your child the Bridgerton Polly Pocket Compact? If you would and want to see what comes with it. then click here!
