Besides that, the packages say they're for, what, ages 4 and up? And they say that just to protect themselves from lawsuits -- the toys are probably okay for 3 year olds, provided they are responsible-ish. Just depends on the kid a bit. At 6.5, yours should be fine. I know I was playing with GI Joes before I was age six, and I did fine with them -- of course there was the inevitable broken thumb, broken crotch, or broken o-ring, but I had been taught a bit that toys cost money and that if I liked having them I needed to take care of them. I never blew any up with firecrackers, HALO jumped them off the top of the house, or melted them with the sun and a magnifying glass.

So go ahead, give a few (probably from a movie line, not MU), make it special, convince him it's special, and he'll probably treat it as such. But do realize that some are destined to break.
The TF's are also 4 and up which is kind of crazy cause I don't think they would understand the instructions, heck I don't understand them at times.
