ISO "Space Ship" for 4 yo

[DrSally]

DS wants a "space ship" for his bday. I'm assuming he's wanting something like a rocket ship. Does anyone have one they really like?

How about this one?

I would go with this one!!!! My 4.5 year old plays with it EVERY time we go to Target! If he hadn't gotten the Imaginext Bat cave for Christmas he would have been getting this space shuttle set! Check your local target store cause I know the price was less than what they have it listed for on Amazon.

Looks nice, esp. for this age range. How much lower have you seen it for? I was hoping to spend $30 max, since he already has so much for his bday and just informed me that he didn't get the rocket ship he wanted for Xmas.

We have that one- I think it might be a bit young for a 4 year old. DS1 was 4 when we got it for DS2 (who was 18 months). DS1 plays with it sometimes but he definately loves his Matchbox Megarig Space Shuttle more. (DS2 does as well) http://www.amazon.com/Matchbox-Mega-Rig-Space-Shuttle/dp/B0014412KI Unfortunately I don't think the Matchbox one is available anymore (for a decent price) unless you find it on craigslist or ebay. I highly recommend it if you can find it.

The Imaginext one should not cost $64. I think you can find a better deal b&m. It'd get my vote.

Hmmm, I was wondering if it might be a bit young. I would love to get the Matchbox one, but since it isn't avail anymore, the price is really jacked up. I guess I'll go to Target and see if I can find the Imagetex one for a decent price.

More than $30, but what about this one: http://www.amazon.com/KidKraft-Fun-Explorers-Rocket-Ship/dp/B002MQE1SC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1261885327&sr=1-1.

Check TJMaxx/Marshalls for the Matchbox version.

We have the IPlay one and the Matchbox one. The Iplay one definitely gets more play time. DS is 4.5 now, and both boys love it. My older DS has a friend who is 4.5 also and never parts with the Iplay one while he is at our house- it's the first thing he goes for.

By IPlay, do you mean the original one I linked to?

I went to Target to look for the Imaginext one and could not find it. Of course I was trying to get through the clearance as well and get out of there to get home to DD. Does anyone have any idea where would find it? Is it by the legos, cars, or what? I did see a submarine by Imaginext on an endcap, but nothing else by that manufacturer.
