    Who did not want an r2 growing up? Now you can have one, he's tiny, but still you can own your own astromech pal. Best buy, best prices, best service, period.

    We had more fun watching everyone operate R2D2 this year than anything else. I can't tell you how many times everyone had R2 stomp and keel over! I have to say it was a little disconcerting when the droids "talked" to each other. It seemed easier to operate with the app on the cellphone as opposed to the wrist band. For the real Star Wars fan, this is a nice addition to the collection.

    For experience players

    Lots of training is a must before trying to go crazy with it. R2-D2 antennas can be broken easily if care is not taking. The head does fall off when run into things. A hard impact tends to cause the head to fall off and will break the antennas. This has happened to me twice. But the good news is Sphero does carry the head for replacement if needed. Like I mentioned earlier, lots of training is required when trying to control with a smart device. Personally, I prefer a remote control because controlling with a smart device can be very frustrated at times.

    I bought one of these for my nephew, he was so excited to play with it. I also had to buy one for my husband, because he was much more excited about it.

    I Purchased a R2-Q5 Droid when it was on Sale for Deal of the Day at an incredible price. A week later, there was a 3 Day Sale and decided to pick up the R2-D2 droid as well. Very Cool droids, completely different sounds and you can have them interact with each other. If your a Serious Star Wars Collector, I highly recommend these Sphero Droid!
