    We looked this item last year and for some reason didn't buy it, but this year can not omit very good black friday price. We hope kids will like this Christmas gift.

    this little BB unit is a great addition to remote controlled collection. I am impressed even though I feel we have the technology available to make a much better version of this little guy.

    Must admit that I'm a little bit disappointed by the size of functionality related to the price, but with licensed products it was to be expected

    This toy is way overpriced and it was a big let down. The sounds only come from your phone's speaker not the device nor does it project a image. So back to the store it went and got a refund.

    Too small for the price. Plus, didn't think the sound the unit makes would come from the app instead of the unit itself. That's disappointing.

    Its good to see kid playing with BB8. moves well, often disconnects, but works. The antenna should have been more strong. It broke after few times using.

    This is a great android. Its mobility is simply awesome. As real as it can be. All the sounds come from the phone, but they are all amazing . The best present for a Star Wars fan.

    BB-8 is a lot of fun even as an adult. It was especially fun to have BB-8 on while watching Force Awakens. The reactions are really cute and spot on for different parts of the movie.
