Tobar for Father’s Day 2014.

‘Founded in 1973, TOBAR celebrates over 40 years dedicated solely to finding innovative toys, gifts and gadgets. TOBAR is continuously searching worldwide to bring exciting; desirable and fun products which will have mass market appeal’ (TOBAR)

I have had a look at some of the gifts Tobar are marketing for Father’s day this year. The gifts surely are original and rather iconic so you are sure to find something for your dad or partner. I have selected a few of the gifts that would appeal to me.

Volkawagen Van.

I have been dreaming of owning one of these for years and I am still living in hope. This iconic van has spanned decades and has been a hit with every generation. The Samba diecast model is pretty much a smaller version of the real thing. The familiar two tone colouring, opening hatch style boot, volkswagen logo etc all add to the appeal. I would love this to take pride of place in a windowsill for all to see and admire but I know it would end up in my toyroom! This is an excellent gift for the volkawagen loving dad and very reasonable at £15.

Haynes Construction Books.

For the construction loving dad Tobar have some brilliant Haynes construction books from only £10. I would select the Thunderbird 2 Aircraft book for my dad as he loves their programmes and would be delighted with this book. The book is different from any usual construction book in that the actual model to build is included in the book, so very exciting for the receiver. The books have over 30 pages with relevant trivia regarding the subject and easy to follow instructions to follow. Father and son would both get pleasure out of this book with both the information and the model building.

Planet Kinetic Mobile.

For dads who are into their science and physics, Tobar have 2 different moving models, planets and atoms. Both move in a kinetic motion and either of them would look great for a desk top or workbench. I was fascinated with these types of models when I was a child and still am. The gravity defying motion always amazes me. These are only priced at £15 which is absolutely brilliant value.

Have a look at the website. I have found several items to put on my wish list including the Sweet Art Cupcakes – wow, these are gorgeous. Tobar – definitely worth a visit.
