Fatherhood²: Review – The BOOMco Twisted Spinner

Posted on April 17, 2014January 7, 2018 by Henry Elliss

As any of you who have read one of my reviews will know, they haven’t been particularly inspired until this point. Usually because I’m asked to review stuff that doesn’t do much, or more likely because I’m just not a very good writer. Either way, I’m amazed that anybody has asked me to review anything lately.

Luckily, that hasn’t stopped people from asking – so I was very pleased to be asked to review a new range of ‘dart blaster’ toys from Mattel.

Photographer Dennis Stylist LinThe ‘BOOMco Twisted Spinner’ I was sent looked like an exciting contraption – so rather than do one of my usual boring reviews, I thought I’d go out on a limb and do something a little different this time.

Robert and I spent the morning testing out (read: playing with) the Twisted Spinner (which you can get at most toy shops, for around £25) and below you can watch our review – apologies in advance for my poor video editing skills, I’m sure I’ll get better at this with practise!

A big thanks to Mattel for sending the blaster to us in the first place – if you want to find out more about the range, take a look at their website or their YouTube/Instagram accounts.

Some lovely sunrises, lots of ice on the canal and a couple of rivers and lakes that were quickly merging together, at the expense of the newly-laid track. At least my wellies stayed strong!

One good thing to come from this week’s rail strikes (and the subsequent week WFH) was my daily sunrise walks - something I really miss when I have to go into London. Fingers crossed that 2023 allows for a few more of them.
