Easter is very nearly upon us and while we're sure plenty of you are excited to see how many Easter Eggs you get, this weekend just so happens to be a pretty great time for gift-giving as well. Heck, why not treat yourself, for that matter?

As always, we know things can be tough when holidays like this roll around, and that's why our 2024 Easter Gift Guide accommodates all manner of budgets for every type of person in your life, from family to friends (of all-ages).

Crucially, we've got hands-on with every single item listed below. Unlike other guides, you won't find sponsored items or flavour-of-the-month items that we've only seen in a press release; by getting to check these out, we can assure you that they're all awesome and that those you're looking to buy for - even if it's yourself - will be extremely pleased.

So, to check out some of this Easter's biggest must-have toys and games, click on the "Next"/"View List" button below...

Video Games

Spider-Man 2 - New Game+

Spider-Man 2's late updates include New Game+, Mission Replay, the ability to change time of day and brand-new accessibility features like Screen Reader, Audio Descriptions and more. We also added the Hellfire Gala suits for Peter and Miles - both of which are free for all players.

Why We Like It: Okay, so Spider-Man 2 might have struggled to live up to the lofty expectations of the wall-crawler's fans, but the sequel was far from a disappointment. Now, with New Game+ mode, there are plenty of reasons to revisit this one, though the biggest might be that Venom level.

WWE 2K24

Experience WWE 2K24’s bevy of spectacular modes, which includes a tribute to WrestleMania in 2K Showcase of the Immortals, MyRISE, MyFACTION, MyGM, and all-new match types like Guest Referee and Gauntlet.

Why We Like It: Pro wrestling is cool again and WWE 2K24 is perhaps the best instalment of this long-running franchise to date. Whether you want to finish your story or just kick some butt, this is a must-buy. For more WWE news, you can, of course, visit TheRingReport.com.

Kung Fu Panda 4

Kung Fu Panda Build-a-Bear

Prepare for adventure with Po from DreamWorks Kung Fu Panda 4! The high-kicking, noodle-loving panda from the popular franchise arrives at Build-A-Bear just in time for the new film. Personalize your DreamWorks Kung Fu Panda plush with his own outfits, sounds and accessories for more action-packed fun!

Why We Like It: Well, who doesn't love a Build-A-Bear? In the case of a character like Po, it should go without saying that he's a perfect fit for the brand, and we can't even begin to describe how cute this thing is in hand. Find out more at the Build-A-Bear Workshop website.

Kung Fu Panda 4 Motion Activated Plush

Kung Fu Panda Po 14" Motion Activated Plush. Includes 10 Action Sounds

Why We Like It: This is also cute, but perhaps a slightly better fit for those who like a little more action with their toys. Brawl with this adorable Po, and he'll make all sorts of fun noises, and we're sure your little ones will have a blast battling with him. Pick this one up on Amazon.

LEGO

LEGO Jurassic World - Dinosaur Fossils: T. rex Skull

Inspire dinosaur-loving boys and girls or budding paleontologist aged 9 and up with this LEGO Jurassic World Dinosaur Fossils: T. rex Skull (76964) dinosaur toy for kids. The first Jurassic World set made for display features a skull with an opening jaw, a stand with an information plaque, a hidden ‘amber’ piece at the back of the model and a 'fossilized' footprint.

Why We Like It: We're going to resist pointing out how "roar-some: this Jurassic World LEGO set is, but seriously, it's such a cool display piece, we can't recommend it highly enough. You'll find it on the LEGO Store website or exclusively at Target.

Why We Like It: We talked about this range of Disney ily 4EVER dolls in our Christmas Gift Guide and this latest range promises to be a must-have for collectors and Disney fans alike (be warned: they sell out fast). You'll find Cruella, Rapunzel, and Minnie Mouse exclusively at Target.

Disney ily 4EVER 18 inch Dolls - Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Ariel, Minnie Fashion Pack, Toy Story Fashion Pack

Disney ily 4EVER includes a diverse line of dolls, trendy fashions and aspirational accessories representing lifestyle themes girls love.

Why We Like It: Wish is a much better film than those box office numbers would have you believe, and we know a lot of kids were inspired by Asha's story. With that in mind, get them this magic wand from Target so they can bring the Disney Princess to life at home.

Wish: Playful Light-Up Star & Yarn Accessories

Recreate Star’s adorable onscreen moments with Playful Light-Up Star & Yarn Accessories. Motion-activated Star, lights up and makes adorable sounds, just like in the movie!

Star is the perfect size to bring on any adventure. Suitable for ages 3+.

Why We Like It: Of course, every Disney Princess needs a cute sidekick and that's where Star comes in. This light-up toy comes with a heap of accessories to recreate moments from the film and be prepared to fall in love with this when you find it at Target.

darth-vader-deluxe-version-star-wars-gallery-63d820fd3fd53-copy

The Star Wars collectible figure is meticulously crafted with a battle-damaged helmet revealing the scarred head sculpt of the former Anakin Skywalker equipped with rolling eyeball function allowing positionable eyeline, battle damaged chest control panel, LED light-up belt boxes, LED light-up Lightsaber, an interchangeable lightsaber blade emulating the weapon in motion, a pair of Third Sister’s lightsabers, and a rocky diorama base!

Why We Like It: We know Hot Toys don't come cheap, but this absolute beast of a figure has serious shelf presence. With LED light-up features and that broken helmet from Obi-Wan Kenobi's memorable finale, this might just be the best 1/6th scale Darth Vader figure to date.
