Toys3 owner Bruce Weiner put his stamp of approval on the BRIO Waterway
Docking Set by choosing it when he gives a gift. "It's really nifty," he said. "I
haven't found a child yet who doesn't like the water — and this toy uses water.
"I'm always looking to find esoteric, not run-of-the-mill toys for the store. And
this is one I happen to adore for kids 18 months and older."
Weiner said the toy is "made by the people who make the
popular wooden train sets, but this is not an exten-
sion of the train line. It's plastic."
The Waterway Docking Set includes boats,
buckets, a pump, waterwheel, crane and two
levels of tracks.
$39.95.

A Reinvention
The Rubik's Cube craze of the '80s is back in the form of a modern, electronic
update. The original is still around, but Nori Klar of Warren Say Mor Prescrip-
tions — where both the older and newer versions are sold — says Techno Source
Rubik's Revolution is a hot seller.
The toy is actually six games in one, with the mastering of each level, unlock-
ing the next. The bold colors of the cube and holographic stickers add to the ap-
peal of the game, which can be played by those ages 5 and older. Batteries operate
the lights, sound and voice features. The cube is set up for single or multi-players.
Price: $19.99.
