What’s everyone getting their 7 nearly 8 year old boys for Xmas?

Lots of cheap bits for my 9 year old. He doesn't know what he wants. My 7 year old is having a retro handheld games console (eldest already has one) and science sets because that's what he likes.

DS was 7 in the summer.
He’s getting Harry Potter Lego mainly- the great hall from us, the train from one grandma and the whomping willow from the other.
We’ve also got him a Battle Action Millenium Falcon which was a total bargain on FB marketplace.
His stocking is mostly Harry Potter bits and pieces.

Football hoody
Books about football players

A lump of coal if this morning is anything to go by.
