Roblox has taken the virtual world by storm. And if your child is a fan, getting them Roblox toys as a gift come Christmas or birthday season is a sure-fire win for any parent. They can assemble the ultimate Roblox collection in real life with action figures, playsets, and vehicles to buy.
Inspired by the iconic characters and experiences, these toys will ignite your kiddo’s passion for the creative online world and give them the chance to bring the action to life offline using their imagination.
What is Roblox?
With more than 50 million daily active players, Roblox is a creative gaming platform where kids can go to socialise in user-generated 3D worlds and play exclusive games. It’s like a huge online playground. It’s available to play online or via the app on Google Play or the Apple App Store.
Users can create their very own avatars to explore the virtual world. It’s home to millions of immersive experiences from social hangouts to fashion shows, and concerts to gaming. They can even have a go at creating their own games via Roblox Studio, available on PC and Mac, if they’re particularly creative!
It’s these popular online games and avatars that have inspired the Roblox toys you can buy IRL.
Is it free to play?
Yes, Roblox is free to play and you or your child can set up an account without it costing a penny. However, as with most online games these days, there is the option to use real-life money to buy Robux virtual currency to make purchases.
This can be used to buy items and avatar customisations, or to pay access to certain games. That being said, most games on the platform are free.
What age is Roblox suitable for?
Roblox comes with a PEGI rating of seven years and up. However, Roblox is a platform for all ages so that means you’ll find both children and adults playing on it.
If you’re concerned about your child’s safety online, Roblox has set up a For Parents section on their website which outlines exactly the cutting-edge technologies in place to make sure younger children can stay safe and have fun.
This includes the customisable parental controls where you can limit or disable your child’s online chat capabilities, set monthly spending restrictions if you are using real money, and restrict access to games that are deemed age appropriate. Users under the age of 13 automatically receive stricter settings but it’s still recommended to set up a PIN to limit the games they can access.

Review: "I recently purchased this for my 12-year-old son and his reaction was one I wish I could have photographed. He has told and shown me you can swap heads, torsos, arms, legs and weapons/handhelds. Included are the 6 figures, 6 swords, 1 shield, 1 cape, a collector checklist, and an enclosed code for roblox.com (it is a ‘package’ which is a virtual customisation option for your roblox avatar). In short, this was a great gift for my son that I would recommend."

Review: "Got this for my Roblox-obsessed son for his birthday and his face lit up. The figures are strong, not flimsy like a lot of these small characters and one thing I really love about Roblox figure sets is the digital download that’s typically included. The little accessories don’t last long in my house, they usually get lost on day one and this was no exception but overall, a great purchase that I would recommend to anyone with a little Roblox fan at home."
