ROAR! Imaginext Monsters University Scare Factory

August 27, 2013 By Lena

Attention Scarers…. there’s a new monster in town: Monster Reid. And he’s here to collect screams from little kids all ’round the world. Better watch out! He packs quite a roar. After all, he’s learned from the best – the scariest monster ever – the one and only Sulley. Introducing the Imaginext Monsters University Scare Factory.

Do your kiddos love Monsters Inc. and Monsters University? Then they’ll adore this playset, which includes Mike, Sulley, 3 doors, 2 canisters, 3 pieces of mail, mail cart, garbage can and broom – essentially, everything you need to recreate the scare floor! Fisher-Price, you’ve done it again :)

Experience what a day with Mike and Sulley would be like at the Scare Factory. Visit the mail room and help sort packages; go to the Scare floor to operate the doors moving through the factory. Place a scare canister on the holder, rotate the disk and watch it fill…

The boys love their playset and have an amazing time immersing themselves in pretend play. If I had but one complaint – there are a LOT of little pieces (mail, canisters, etc) and they tend to get lost and show up in the strangest places. Hence, don’t be surprised if you find a small, plastic broom between your couch cushions.

The set retails for $44.97 and can be purchased at popular toy retailers across Canada.

Now if you’ll excuse me – I’m off to collect the little children’s screams. ROAR!

    Well he is a cute little monster. Nice toy but those little pieces would drive me nuts.

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 8:18 am

      I second that, Tricha. Currently trying to find a scream canister… it’s driving me bonkers.

    You little scary monster is really cute! My grandkids would enjoy this toy but just keeping a track of the little pieces would drive me crazy.

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 8:18 am

      :) Reid really loves the toy!

    I use to keep Sara’s Barbie set together by storing them in containers separately from other sets but I agree…the little pieces are hard to contain.

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 8:19 am

      :) I think the little pieces are what make it so much fun for kids!

    Love Reid’s expressions ! I couldn’t buy this for my grandkids as much as I would like to – the little pieces would either get lost or eaten by their dog LOL ! Besides, there are enough cars, Skylanders and lego bricks to get lost or stepped on as it is LOL

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 8:20 am

      Ah, stepping on Lego bricks! I feel like I have permanent scars under my feet from doing so :)

    That is one cool playset! LOVE IT! Sometimes it’s hard to find playsets that are geared towards boys or at least have them seem kinda unisex, but I really like this one!

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 8:20 am

      So true, Jeannie! Your kiddos will love it!

  15. Trina Goodwin

    To cute … this looks like a ball of fun !

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 2:21 pm

      The boys love it!

  16. Judy C (Cowan)

    August 31, 2013 at 2:10 pm

    Okay I gave in and showed this to my nephew, now I have to figure out where to buy it because he “really needs one for his birthday”

    • Lena

      August 31, 2013 at 2:22 pm

      LOL! You can find it at Toys R Us or Walmart, Judy! Good luck!
