What’s Inside this Hasbro Hay‑Baskets?

Picture yourself slipping into a world where Nerf guns score jokes, Transformers battle the breeze, and Monopoly deals cash‑and‑carry excitement into the clouds. That’s exactly what TOYBOX brings to our island on Friday Feb 1.

  • Seven iconic Hasbro brands: Transformers, My Little Pony, Nerf, Monopoly, Cluedo, Baby Alive & Play‑Doh.
  • 4,800 m² playground with activity zones, cool merch, foodie stalls & snack corner.
  • Super Claw” – Singapore’s largest human claw machine. Strap in, grab toys, and reunite with that one childhood feeling of phasing to win.
  • My Little Pony makeover: paint, claw‑clip hair extensions, tutu, plus a chance to design your own pony figure.
  • Cluedo Tudor Mansion: a real‑life escape room where your detective hat gets worn.
  • Interact with Optim us Prime, Bumblebee, plus Mr Monopoly and the Play‑Doh mascots – they’re roaming the grounds all day.
  • Monopoly fans can snack on the famed green house or a red hotel, or try their luck in a “Chance Vault” full of Monopoly money.
  • Starting Feb 4–6, Mr Monopoly will lead dragon dances for Chinese New Year celebrations.

All Ages, All Fun – Towering Enthusiasm from the Front of the Crowd

“It’s a playground where kids feel like they’re in a living version of the board game and parents can drop their adult worries from a few shoulder‑high steps away,” says Anthony Chong, 58, group managing director of Kingsmen Exhibits. “Everyone can step back, play, snap a goofy selfie, and dance with animated mascots.”

Counting the Crowd

The organisers aim for 100,000–120,000 visitors. That’s the size of a football stadium, minus the threat of stray Nerf bullets.

Who’s on the Guest List

Media preview (Jan 31) was full of characters that make you laugh: Mr Lau, a 31‑year‑old engineer who snagged two Nerf guns on the Super Claw, and his wife Sabrina Seah, a 29‑year‑old financial adviser who told us she simply loved the game because it let them relax as a couple. For Kayla Lee, seven feet of joy like picking hair extensions or a pony tattoo was nothing short of a dream.
