10 of the best Roblox toys and merchandise
Our pick of some of the best Roblox toys kids can enjoy in the real world, including Jailbreak sets, colouring books and even Roblox themed clothing for a range of ages
For many parents, Roblox will need no introduction, but if you’re not quite sure what the phenomenon your kids are always talking about is, let us explain.
Roblox is a virtual game where players can join and create a huge range of 3D worlds which users all over the world generate themselves. The worlds can be themed to whatever sparks your child's imagination, including race cars, fashion shows, superheros and theme parks.
Below, we have rounded up a list of some of our favourite Roblox toys below, from multi-packs of various figures and individual characters, to Roblox backpacks and colouring books. Official Roblox toy sets often also include a special code which allows kids to redeem a virtual item within the game, too, joining the real and virtual gaming worlds together.
If you’re looking for more must-have ideas for little ones, we’ve got our round up of the best toys for 2020, tried and tested by our experts, too, as well as the best space toys for little adventurers.

1. Roblox Meme Pack, £39.99
Age: 6+
What it is: A mixed set of “meme” characters from Roblox. Includes character figures as well as extra accessories such as a sign, hat, dumbbell and shopping trolley so there is plenty for kids to interact with. There is also a code included which will allow kids to unlock a virtual item on their digital Roblox game.
Why we love it: This is a great set as there are a range of figures to choose from including the Clown, Mega Noob, Despacito Spider and other favourites. There's plenty of opportunity for play as kids can mix and match all the different parts to make their very own Roblox character.

2. Roblox ROB0340 Tower Battles: ZED Vehicle, £9.99
Age: 6+
What it is: A zombie exterminator duo, consisting of a super-tank vehicle and accompanying figure with weapon accessories.

The set averaged 4.8 out of 5 stars in overall reviews on Amazon and just like with other Roblox toys, a redeemable code is also included for the digital game.

We also like that the larger pieces such as the fences, ladder, ramp and glider allow more interactivity while children are playing, without needing to add other characters or pieces from other sets. It scored 4.7 out of 5 stars overall on Amazon from an impressive 1,600 reviews. Previous buyers were impressed with the "good quality" of the set and one parent even said their "son loved this at Xmas and still playing with it coming into April."

A fun design but also practical with handy mesh pockets to carry water bottles too.

With multiple codes kids will also be able to unlock lots of exciting virtual items within the game. One Amazon reviewer said there was also a good "likeness to the game version" and added, "The bits that you can swap around fit together nicely and the figures haven't broken when actually played with."

What it is: A 21cm-tall toy car with a removable roof, working headlights and incorporated weapon, plus 2 character figures and bank-related accessories, such as gold bars. 2 x AAA batteries are included with the set.
Why we love it: A fun, interactive set which was described as “sturdy and robust as well as a good size” and “durable” by parents who reviewed the pack on Argos. It would also work well with other Jailbreak sets such as the SWAT car, for children to make a cops and robbers scenario. Parents on Argos said their children “had hours of fun playing with it” and that they “knew exactly which car it was so the similarity is exact to the game.”

8. Roblox Pezsmistic The Dread Talon, £7
Age: 6+
What it is: A stand-alone figure of Roblox character, Pezsmistic The Dread Talon and 2 small accessories. Includes a redeemable code for the digital version of the game
Why we love it: This would make a great smaller gift or stocking filler toy for children who are fans of Roblox.

You can also take the character apart and mix and match sections with other figures so children can create their own new inventions.
