Cheap Naruto Toys Contest

Hello my dear fellow readers! It has been a while since I set up this cheap toys blog, which mainly features cheap childrens toys. I have to admit that I have been busy, and it is tough to maintain this blog and regularly add toys which can be found online at a bargain. Sometimes, I feel that this blog is a failure but seriously I am not very sure how many of you are actually reading my blog and really buying cheap toys from my blog. My blog caters to cheap toys for kids, if only all those kids out there are surfing my cheap toys bargain toys blog!

Well that may just be a dream but you will never know.

Anyway I have decided to do some promotion for my blog. I hope that through this promotion, not only more people would know about my blog and maybe also frequent my blog. Recently, a friend of mine, knowing that I am a Naruto fan, ordered this cheap naruto toy from Amazon. Now wait, let me rephrase that, this naruto toy isn't really a cheap naruto toy, because the last time I checked Amazon, it is retailing it at US$115. You can view the details of this naruto toy here, which is a Naruto: Gaara Sand Coffin Statue. I am attaching the picture below for you all to see.


Let's just say that I didnt really fall in love with this toy. It is however in perfect condition and still boxed up. The picture of the gaara naruto statue was taken from Amazon. I have decided to give this statue to one lucky winner who frequents my blog. The rules are very simple:

1. To be eligible for this contest to win a cheap naruto toy which is a gaara sand coffin statue, which is open to anybody in the whole wide world, you will have to link to any of my cheap toy pages within my blog. You can choose any of my blog posts, link to it and give a brief write-up of the toy on that page or a short review of my blog. For example, you can link to my Cheap Pokemon Plush Toys post or to my Cheap Bakugan Toys post and just write a short paragraph on either the Cheap Pokemon Toys or the Cheap Bakugan Toys. This link can be from your blog or a website.

2. You can also include a link to this contest to invite more people to take part. This link must be a separate link from the one above.

3. After you have linked to my blog, please leave me a comment in this post with a link to the webpage which you have created that link. Remember to include your email address.

4. This contest will close end August and I will randomly pick one comment from this post below, check that the link has been properly done, and if yes, I will contact this person for his name and address to have the cheap naruto toy gaara sand coffin statue to be posted to his address. Oh and I will only close the contest if I have gotten at least 100 links or 100 comments in this post. I will extend the contest deadline if the participation rate is poor. Hope this is agreeable with everyone.

Thats all I have to say for now. Do email me if there are other queries. If you have some feedback on this contest, such as what the prize should be, if the rules need clarification etc. I do not mind giving out more stuff if the promotion creates more buzz for my toy bargains blog! For now, good luck to everybody on winning this Naruto Cheap Toy - Gaara Sand Coffin Statue!

3. Transformers

Now this toy needs no introduction. Currently still very active in the market with movies (another new movie coming up this year known as Transfomers: Revenge of the Fallen) still being produced. But if you ask me, you cant compare those new Transformers toy to those of yesteryear. Since when did Megatron morf into a T Rex? Totally not my style....Oh by the way, if you still own some of these old toys, dont think they cant be considered cheap toys now as Im sure there are many collectors out there...cheap become expensive....great deal! Especially if they are still in the box and upopened! Super valuable!

Megatron the bad guy or megatron the ugly beast....u choose! If u ask me I still prefer the gun!

4 Ghostbusters

Yet another name that needs no introduction. Peter Venkman, Raymond Stantz, Egon Spengler, and Winston Zeddmore fight ghosts with trusty sidekick Slimer! Dont think they still selling these toys now. Collectors items again! Where did those toys which I have last time go? Last movie was so long ago in 1984 believe it or not! Remember the toy when they even had a real size ghostbuster proton pack...those were the days man! Not to forget marshmellow man.... and the music....WHO DO YOU CALL? GHOSTBUSTERS.......

Anyways, I understand that there is also a new Ghostbusters movie coming out soon. Hopefully this would mean that there would be a revival of Ghostbusters toys! Let's pray hard that this wish would come through! Till that time when the Ghostbusters toys are released, tune in to the Bargain Toys blog where I will update you on the latest cheap Ghostbusters toys just released for the movie and selling at a bargain! Stay tuned......

News Post - New Rules on Toys Could Spell Doom

By Lea Ann Overstreet Allen and Clay Carey, Click here for full article in USA TODAY

Looming federal regulations that could force used-item retailers and thrift stores to trash many children's toys and clothing are getting a second look from the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The regulations, passed under the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act in August and set to go into effect Feb. 10, are aimed at eliminating lead-tainted cheap toys designed for children 12 and younger. They require all such products — clothes, toys and shoes — be tested for lead and phthalates, the chemicals used to make plastics pliable.

The main issue for retailers is the costly testing, which can run from about $400 for a small item to thousands of dollars for larger toys with multiple pieces, according to Kathleen McHugh, president of the American Specialty Toy Retailing Association.

Toys not tested would be deemed hazardous whether they contain lead or not, under the wording of the law.

Abby Whetstone, owner of Twice as Nice Kids in Denver, said consignment stores such as hers would not be able to afford expensive lead tests.

"It would affect every piece of inventory we have," Whetstone said. "We're a little terrified at this point."

The Consumer Product Safety Commission voted this week to work on exemptions to the regulations and evaluate the way they could impact sales from consignment shops, online retailers and even yard sales.

"We are working on a 30-day comment period where we will hear from consumers, manufacturers, retailers, anybody affected by the act," commission spokesman Scott Wolfson said. The review won't be finished by Feb. 10, but the law will still go into effect that day, he said.

Wolfson said there are some obvious holes in the act, which the commission will seek to fill.

Lara Lang, who has helped run consignment sales which raise between $25,000 and $30,000 a year for the Hermitage United Methodist Church preschool in Nashville, says the concept of protecting children is good, but she was critical of the act.

"How on earth are they going to enforce that? They can't. There are people who have yard sales. Are they going to police those?" she asked.

The changes would also affect toy wholesalers and distributors such as Challenge & Fun, a Massachusetts-based company that imports most of its products from Europe. Company co-owner Rob Wilson said he'd have to cut his 500-product line to 20 or 30 to meet the requirements. "Even there, if I have to spend $20,000 or $30,000 on testing, that's a big hit," he said.

Goodwill Industries International, among the charities that could be affected, is waiting for clarification before it starts changing the way it does business, spokeswoman Charlene Sarmiento said.

Carrie Weir, who owns Web-based Los Pollitos Dicen, a children's clothing line specializing in T-shirts, would be hit both as a clothing designer and a parent.

"We all want regulations to make sure our children our safe, but this law goes too far," Weir said.
