Roblox Action Figures Review: Collectible Roblox Toys
Roblox was the game my now 17 year old first played when he was little, back when we were still playing games on the laptop and tablets and gaming apps weren't quite the everyday thing they are now.
Fast forward a few years and Roblox is still very much part of our household, with my youngest son playing it on his iPad through the Roblox app.
One of the things I have always found interesting about Roblox is how much there is to do. You can create games, customise characters and avatars, explore different worlds and play with friends. There really is something for everyone, which probably explains why it has remained so popular with children over the years.
So when Jacob was given the opportunity to try some of the Roblox collectible action figures, he was absolutely over the moon.
He loves Roblox and he loves collecting figures, so putting the two together was pretty much a guaranteed win.
Roblox Collectible Figures
There are over 40 Roblox figures to collect, making these a fun option for children who enjoy building a collection and discovering which characters they will get.
We received three different Roblox figure sets:
Work at a Pizza Action Figure – RRP £12.99
Core Pack Circuit Breaker Figure – RRP £7.99
Collectible Figure Blind Pack – RRP £3.99
The different sets make a great starting point for a Roblox figure collection, particularly if your child already enjoys playing Roblox and recognises some of the characters from the game.
Roblox Figures with Interchangeable Parts
One of Jacob's favourite things about the figures was that they have interchangeable parts.
Rather than simply having a figure that stays exactly the same, he could take the different pieces apart and create his own combinations.
This gave him much more opportunity for imaginative play. He had great fun experimenting with the different parts and creating characters that were completely his own.
I think this is one of the things that makes these Roblox toys particularly appealing. They aren't just figures to stand on a shelf. There is plenty of opportunity to actually play with them.
Roblox Collectible Blind Packs
The blind pack adds another element to collecting because you don't know exactly which figure you are going to get.
At £3.99 RRP, the blind packs are also a smaller and more affordable way to start or add to a Roblox collection.
For children who enjoy collecting, I can imagine the excitement of opening each pack and finding out which character is inside.
Of course, once you start collecting, there is always that temptation to try and find them all!
Digital Items for Roblox
Another feature that Jacob really liked was the fact that the figures come with scratch codes for exclusive digital items that can be used within the Roblox game.
I thought this was a nice addition because it connects the physical toys with the Roblox experience he already enjoys on his iPad.
You get something physical to play with away from the screen, while also getting an exclusive digital extra to use within the game.
For a child who already loves Roblox, this makes the figures feel much more connected to the game rather than simply being another set of collectible toys.
Our Thoughts on the Roblox Action Figures
Jacob was really pleased with the Roblox figures and has had lots of fun playing with them.
For him, they combine two things he already enjoys: Roblox and collecting figures.
I also like that they encourage him to use his imagination rather than simply keeping the figures as collectibles. Being able to swap the interchangeable parts means he can create different combinations and characters depending on how he wants to play.
The different price points are useful too. The smaller blind packs provide an inexpensive way to add to a collection, while the larger action figure sets offer more to play with.
With more than 40 figures to collect, there is plenty of scope for children to build their own Roblox collection over time.
Final Thoughts
If you have a child who loves Roblox and enjoys collecting toys, these Roblox action figures are a fun combination of the digital game and physical play.
Jacob particularly enjoyed being able to customise the figures using the interchangeable parts, and the inclusion of the digital codes was an added bonus for a Roblox fan.
I think they would make a great Roblox gift for children, whether you are looking for a larger action figure set or a smaller collectible blind pack.
For us, these Roblox figures were a great introduction to what could become a much bigger collection, and Jacob has certainly enjoyed getting started.
If you're looking for a simple game that gets the whole family talking, laughing, and occasionally debating some very silly questions, then the Would You Rather Family Edition Game is definitely worth considering.
As a family, we are always on the lookout for games that don't take ages to set up and that everyone can join in with, regardless of age. Between busy family life, health challenges, and trying to find activities that don't involve another screen, this game has become one of those easy go-to options that we can pull out whenever we fancy spending some time together.
