The Star Wars Mustafar Volcano kit can teach kids about how volcanos really work.
You can almost hear the “Duel of the Fates” playing in the background with this Star Wars Mustafar Volcano Kit, which recreates the climatic light saber duel on the lava moon of Mustafar by Obi Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker turned Darth Vader.
The kit can actually create eruptions and lava flows as the two Star Wars figurines battle it out below with the lanscape melting and burning around them. What’s really cool about this toy – other than the pop culture scifi geekery of the toy – is that it’s also educational as kids can learn how a real volcano actually works while pretending that Obi Wan is opening up a can of “whoop ass” on his petulant and traitorous Padawan.
And for $25 at Toys R Us, can you really go wrong?
