Would this be sufficient for party favors?

Anonymous
For 5 yo party, I’m piling up a bunch of action figures on the tables that the kids can play with. Can they pick one to take home as the favor? Or should I hand out something separate as well?

Are they new or used? Just sounds really weird to me

I can picture kids fighting over who gets what figure. Some will be able to handle it and others won’t. Hold some back and give those out as they leave.

They’re used. I got a bunch off eBay.

Sounds like a fight during and after the party. Nope

something separate and new, even if just $1. preferably all the same so there is no fighting over things. Used action figures is weird.

Just skip favors. Agree lots of drama.

Pick them all up five minutes before the party ends, and hand them out in bags as they leave.

I’d rather get a cool secondhand action figure than dollar store trash.

How is this any different from the matchbox cars that act as balloon weights and each kid takes a balloon home? I see post about that all the time and others co sign what a great idea that is to use the decorations as a favor and it is not crap. It sounds fine to me. But I do see that some kids might fight - so maybe pick them up and put them in bags before you end the party

I think it's a great idea and would do that or nothing. But make sure there are multiples of each figure. So like not just one Spider-Man because inevitably everyone will want that one.

A used toy played with at the party is not really a favor. That is you getting rid of them.

Agree with the PP that said its better than crap from dollartree
