Review: Mini Beanz Comic Landing Pad

December 11 2014 By melbournemamma 34 Comments

What is it about boys (little & big) that makes them so obsessed with superheros?

 

My 4 yr old has been obsessed with Superman for the past two years and by obsessed I mean, he even had us calling him Clark (as in Kent) when he was dressed in his “people clothes” and not his Superman costume LOL.

 

Apparently he is going to BE Superman when he grows, so he can save people and fly around the world.

 

You can imagine his excitement (high pitched squealing excitement in fact) when a Mini Beanz Comic Landing Pad arrived at our door to review. 

Comic_Landing_Pad1

The Comic Landing Pad is the perfect bean bag to catch your little (or BIG!) superhero. Made in a size that would be just as comfy for a toddler as it would for an adult, our COMIC LANDING PAD is an absolute must have. Designed here in Melbourne with imagination and fearlessness at its heart to embrace the essence of childhood that we should never grow out of.

 

It is recommended that you will need approx 100–150 litres (1-1.5 bags) of beans to fill the bag – we have just over 1.5 bags in ours.

Once the bag was filled, my son was changed in to his Superman costume quicker Clark Kent could find a phonebox to change in to his.

 

“Can I practice flying onto this bag mummy” he asked.

 

As you can see, it was hard to photograph someone who is moving faster than a speeding bullet LOL

The Comic Landing Pad is suitable for indoor or outdoor use, you can take this bean bag anywhere with the help of the carry handle. Designed with safety and practicality in mind, the removable cover contains a safety zipper as well as the inner bag that holds the beans having a secondary safety zipper.

 

My kids love to lie on the bag to watch TV and read books. It’s big enough to fit both my 4 yr old and his 7 yr old sister.

 

It’s also perfect for watching our favourite superhero – Superman (Christopher Reeve’s Superman of course!)

    The Comic Landng Pad would be a massive hit in my house! My four year old is superhero mad and also getting pretty good at “reading” letters. This would be a great addition to our play room. My insta account is sallydoig

    How cool is the Comic Landing Pad? I have 3 little super heroes who would have some wonderful adventures with it.
    My kids love laying outside in the sun reading books and are forever carting out blankets and pillows to get comfy. They also love building indoor forts and the Comic Landing Pad would be sure to be a centrepiece in their creations.

    The Comic Landing Pad – would be perfect for Master 10. Comfy and stylish! He’s more active than a superhero so this would be the perfect addition to his bedroom.

    All of the bean bags look tops, but nothing beats the Comic Landing Pad. And I don’t mean for my son. If anyone’s going to have a comic strip style place to crash it’ll be the biggest kid in the house – ME!

    I’m already ironing my cape and best on-the-outside underwear in preparation for my debut crash.

Based on the iconic 1970s Dodge Charger R/T, it’s packed with authentic details. The opening hood reveals a model version of the iconic V8 engine. Other cool features include moving pistons, wishbone suspension, steering system and air blower. There are even nitro bottles in the trunk to bring Dom's daring high-speed chases to life. Just like the real thing!⁣

“1959: Grace is a young mother with four children under four. All she ever wanted was to have a family of her own, but there are thoughts Grace cannot share with anyone in the months after childbirth. Instead she pours her deepest fears into the pages of a notebook, hiding them where she knows husband Patrick will never look. When Grace falls pregnant again, she turns to her sister, Maryanne, for help.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
1996: When Beth's father, Patrick, is diagnosed with dementia, she and her siblings make the heart-wrenching decision to put him into care. As Beth is clearing the family home, she discovers a series of notes. Patrick's children grew up believing their mother died in a car accident, but these notes suggest something much darker may be true.”⁣⁣⁣
