2022-05-14 02:27:21 By : Ms. Theresa Liu

Spring is now in full swing, and luckily for those needing to buy a gift this season, Hasbro has announced an exciting lineup of toys and games.

Buying gifts for loved ones is never easy, especially when those loved ones are kids. Interest in a particular type of toy or brand can change faster than the seasons, and some parents struggle just keeping up. Thankfully, Hasbro has announced a slew of new toys and games, encompassing a wide range of brands from Star Wars to Power Rangers and a few more in between.

While a good few of the toys in this gift guide are marketed toward a younger audience, there are a few in the mix that could certainly make their way into some adults' collections. Regardless of age, here are some of Hasbro's best offerings this Spring.

Hasbro's line of Forge Lightsabers allows kids to build their own lightsaber. Each lightsaber comes with a certain blade, cap, cover, and core, which can be mixed and matched with the rest of the range. Each lightsaber comes with its own set of sound and light effects, imitating their on-screen appearance. The Darksaber is one of the most unique lightsabers around, recently featuring in The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.

Hasbro's Darth Vader Forge Lightsaber functions in essentially the same way as the aforementioned Darksaber, with its own unique set of parts that can be swapped around with the other toys in the same range. Of course, as this is Darth Vader's lightsaber, the blade will light up a red color, and the sound effects imitate the lightsaber's representation in the movies.

Directly inspired by its on-screen appearance in Season 2 of Power Rangers Dino Fury, the Dino Knight Morpher is an oversized electronic glove that emits a range of sounds and lights. These effects change based on which direction the user is pointing their hand. For example, pointing the glove down emits a lightning sound and light effect, while pointing it upwards emits fire effects. Different sound and light effects can be unlocked by using the keys included in other Dino Fury Hasbro toys.

From his earliest gaming memories playing Spyro 2 on the PlayStation, to being obsessed with the swing-out animations in Marvel's Spider-Man, Cameron has always been, and continues to be, in love with video games. What started as frenzied childhood discussions on Star Wars Battlefront 2 has transitioned into somewhat less frenzied breakdowns on...Star Wars Battlefront 2. It's fair to say that video games are an integral part of Cameron's life, and hopefully they'll continue to be. You can find more of Cameron's work on Twitter @CamSwan117
