Good toy for discounted price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as a gift for my daughter. I think she was quite happy what BB-8 was able to do once the app was downloaded. He moves pretty fast for a small toy!

Still learning, but quite funny!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little robot takes a little practice to operate efficiently, but he's fun to watch and quite funny if you apply human characteristics to his response noises!

Great little guy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This bb8 is awesome. You can control it with your phone or get the watch. Or you can put it on patrol mode and it will roam around on own.

Fun and simple to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son loved his BB8 from day 1 and loves how easy it was to use with his wrist band which was sold separately. Great gift for the little Star Wars fan in you.

BB8!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved the marketing and execution of Sphero's BB8. Very cool to have roam around. Just wish the sounds came from the actual toy instead of the phone app.

Star Wars In Real Life
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The hottest toy to come out when announcing TFA. It surely doesn't and won't disappoint any Star Wars fan. It's fun, it's cute, and just a real joy to play with.

This guy needs more stars....
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a fun "toy". I originally bought the non-battle worn BB8 and the Force Band. But, then caught the Best Buy deal for the Battle Worn BB4/Force Band combo for $150 plus a $50 BB card. Great deal. It takes a little bit of getting used to controlling him with the force band but is more fun than the phone/tablet software control. It runs too fast on hard surfaces until you get used to controlling it. It sometimes gets hung-up on carpet if the carpet is a bit tall/soft. It is a fun little remote control "toy" and is more durable that I originally thought it was going to be.

An entertaining companion
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.BB-8 although smaller than I originally thought is a fun little guy. He needs to be on hard surfaces to roll, and the watch Star Wars companion feature is neat.

Son loves it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son loves it, but it really drains the battery to iPhone or Android that is controlling it. Would like to record hologram messages...maybe next generation.

Worth the price of admission
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got very lucky finding this guy today. I went into my local store right when they opened and there were 3 on the shelf. I grabbed one and as I went to check out the other two were being purchased by the people behind me in line. -The package for BB-8 is very nice and it makes storing the droid easy if you want to keep it in the box or transport it. -The functionality is very cool. The second you place BB-8 on the induction charger he starts to look around and move his head which is funny to watch. -The app connection works well for mine and I have no issues connecting to the toy and controlling it. The toy moves great on hard surfaces and decent on short carpet. Once in a while BB-8 will need a little push to get him moving if your home is entirely carpet. -The tricks he can do are fun and the AR feature with the holograms works well, it also confuses my dog haha. My only gripe with this toy is the lack of an instruction manual. I am still uncertain on how to tell when BB-8 is fully charged or not. I checked the site but wasn't able to find anything, so I will have to further investigate. Overall this is a great toy with fun functionality. I grew up with My Pal 2 and now this generation of kids is growing up with BB-8. Worth every penny!

Great idea for a toy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoyed the initiative, input as thought they put in this toy however at times it can be difficult to drive depending of the latency of the device youre using and the surface it is under

Fun
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this when it was on sale. I couldn't see paying more than $25 for this thing. It's adorable and fun but it gets old quick.
