Must be I used a special character, try again...
497 =
XXXXXXXXX. Colored cubes in
XXXXXXXXX. Top 4 rows
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
$$$$$$$$$ row of jails
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ ice. I HATE ICE!
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ ice. I HATE ICE!
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ ice. I HATE ICE!1.) The first move that destroys a jail, must destroy all jails.
2.) The only guaranteed way to destroy all jails in one move is with TNT/rocket combo in the first row above the jails. This will destroy 3 columns of ice too (unless you are in the first or last column when exploding them, then only two columns will be destroyed).
3.) Best results come from destroying ice in the first three columns or the last three columns. So set up you combo to allow you to do this. This is not always possible. If you can’t, that’s okay too.
4.) Now you only have 18 ice cubes remaining. . I HATE ICE!XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX

XXXXXXXXX
$$$$$$XXX row: released criminals, 3 escaped!
¥¥¥¥¥¥XXX
¥¥¥¥¥¥XXX
¥¥¥¥¥¥XXX5.) Study the board.
a. Can you build another TNT/rocket combo on the right side and drop it down to the right of the remaining ice? I HATE ICE!
b. Will you be able to match pairs of colored squares next to the ice? I HATE ICE!
c. Maybe there is a Rubik Cube/rocket combo waiting to be built?
c. This is the point where you need to access your knowledge from the first 496 levels you completed. You may start with a or b as your plan and then change your mind when 9 Red cubes come together. That’s okay too. You have 50 total moves, which is plenty. Be creative. If you can build a TNT above the heads of the released criminals, you may want to do that so when you break the ice underneath that criminal and he escapes the board, then that TNT falls down into place to blow the next column of ice off the board. Relax, enjoy.DO NOT LET THE ICE MAKE YOU PANIC! THINK BEFORE YOU MOVE. BE CALM. BREATHE! You’ve got this! 498 is calling you name out of fear.

Alastair Cameron, the “pairs” are pairs of matching colored cubes to break the ice. As long as you break one ice cube, the ice does not grow. Just played 497 again before replying because I wanted it fresh in my mind when writing this. This time did not get any matching colored squares by the ice but fortunately I was able to build a TNT and then build a rocket to pair them the second row up from the bottom and by “exploding” those was able to get rid of all the ice in one move.
It seems the hurdle with this level is giving in to the pressure of the ice. (My problem with ice too and why I HATE ICE) Remain calm. There are 50 moves available for this level, double what is needed if the Toy Blast gods are even slightly on your side.
Start with the TNT/rocket on top of the jail. If possible, build the TNT/rocket so it can releases in the second column from the right or the left side. This removes all three columns of ice at one side or the other. Why does this help? Two reasons:
1.) Can then build another TNT/rocket in that open space and take out all remaining ice or
2.) when discharging the TNT/rocket in the middle somewhere it’s harder to break ice on both sides of the opening. I found this at many levels, not just 497. BUT it can be done so don’t panic if you had to go through the middle. I HATE ICEOne other thing that will help: before releasing that first TNT/rocket combo above the jails, any rocket you can build that will fire down through the ice, helps immensely. BUT don’t release those rockets individually! Leave them so that when you explode the TNT/rocket combo, they will hit the lone rockets and send them through another column of ice at the same time as the combo takes out the three columns below them.
This is a list of what I try to do for level 497 and it consistently works for me. There may be other ways but I could not find one that was reliable every time. If you find another way to defeat 497, please share. I HATE ICE!
There are 9 columns and 8 rows.
In case you have forgot that since your school days: I DID NOT LIKE SCHOOL (Hate was too strong of a word for school. Hate fits perfectly with ice!)Row = xxxxxxxxx

Level 120
IMPORTANT: You do not need to clear all the pinwheels for the bottom pinwheel to be cleared and the elephant to drop.
Some guidelines that I use to be successful in winning this level in the allowed moves. The guidelines are helpful so you do not waste moves:
1. Missiles, TNT & Cubes
A) Do not make them unless you can not avoid it or you are not going out of you way to make them.B) If a missile, TNT or Cube is made, make it as far away from center as possible. That is so they don't get in the way of making pairs to clear a pinwheel.
C) Do not use them unless it helps maneuver the colors you need for a pinwheel leaf or you have no other practical moves.
D). IOW: Do not waste your limited moves on them.
2. To clear the bottom pinwheel, you need to clear the pinwheel on the left or the pinwheel on the right. In it not necessary to clear both sides.
In other words:
A). Clear pinwheel on left and pinwheel on the bottomOR
B). Clear pinwheel on the right and pinwheel on the bottom.
3. This level has been won with the pinwheel remaining on one side with the white blocks remaining on the same side.

The spinning bonus wheel just shows up on its own. It is possible that Toy Blast running on older versions of IOS do not have the wheel.

There are videos for all the levels above here but you can't get to them by clicking on the Wslkthrough menu. You can either use the Menu search, above right or go by way of a Google search "Toy Blast 900" replacing 900 with which ever level # you want.
BTW: I still hate ice.

Looks like anything higher needs to be put here. This is what o have:
Level 654
Clue: pair Rubic Cubes
Need two RC Early, when still have 10 lives or more left to clean up the remaining bubbles. If you can pair two RC a second time, piece of cake.Level 656
Challenge is to have 60 beach balls appear to pop. If they don't appear , they can't be popped.
A Cube/missile combo early on with many matching colors to the Cube, seals the deal. Once the combo has done its thing, there will be many beach balls and bubbles to score the level requirements while you concentrate on scoring the elephants landing safely on the bottom.Level 658
Don't bust thru caged eggs until you have built tools in top. Build TNT/missile in first row above a cages and it will open all of them and release the eggs. If you are able to release a second TNT/missile across the bottom to melt ice in the way then pair blocks to melt Choctaw otherwise use missiles to eliminate chocolate.
Remember goal is not ice! It is just a nuisance this level. Melt your eggs and pop the bubbles to move on.
If you were able to use the TNT/missile to open all the cages without using many lives, you will have this one!Level 682
Live a good clean life as a virgin and a lot of luck!Level 683
Make tools around the outside or a missile in the elephant column for later use when setting elephants freeLevel 725
Normally I try to pair the TNT with a rocket but in this level used the TNT as soon as it makes sense. So either right away or if another pig can easily be dropped in to range of the TNT then wait until It is dropped in place then blow them piggies up! For some reason this was the only way that I was able to complete this level (compared to waiting for a pair of TNT/rocket).Level 749
If you can pair a missile with a Rubik's Cube; it's all over but the hog roast!Level 794
Important: pop bubbles near ice right away, especially bottom ones (under rings)
Started with a TNT, lucky to get rocket next to it, build pair at beginning that cleaned up top/bottom in middle which set up another pair to clean up left/right in middle.Level 872
Failed many times and finally was successfully when paired RubikCube with TNT, THREE separate times. I did not purposely pair those two, thought the missile would have been the better choice with the RC but turns out I was wrong. So, start building those bombs!Level 958
Defies my logic but start making pairs at the bottom and work your way up. As soon as possible make Cube/missile pairs. It will take more than one pairing. I found my self stuck with a Cube/TNT pair at first and had to take it. Cube/RC pairs are okay sometimes. The sooner a Cube can be paired the greater the chance of passing this level.

Does anyone like the ice? Also, if you like any of the tips and/or hints, please "like" it so to motivate the player to write more. Don't be shy to ask specific players questions if you get stuck on a level without any hints. I have several written but was unable to logged in to post for a few months plus I have started at Level 1 on a new device and currently playing on four devices.
