    This sphero is awesome. My son already had the BB8 and I was not too fond of purchasing R2-Q5 but boy was i surprised. The look of the droid is lifelike and controls are awesome.Almost to nice to play with. A must for any Stat Wars or Sphero fan.

    This thing is a blast. I can’t even lie and say I bought it for a kid. I’m almost 30 years old and couldn’t stop grinning while watching this zing around the floor. My dog would probably give it a zero star rating, but hey, opposable thumbs win.

    Even though I had the BB-8 and R2D2 by Sphero, I couldn't resist this little guy when I saw him. Performs exactly the same as Artoo, but with slightly altered "voice". If you need an astromech droid that appeals to your dark side, grab this.

    I keep this at our house for when my grandchildren come to visit. I also have R2-D2 and BB8. They all interact with each other and it's funny controlling them and watching them and the kids. Get a couple, they're really fun.

    I bought this during the Christmas holidays for a special price. I really like the shine and the glossy feeling to it. Much better than the R2D2. However, it does not produce the same sounds as the R2 unit. Sort of expected as its is not the same thing. The reason I did not give it a full 5 star is that it tips over very easily while driving.

    Wow, fun reliving the movies and having fun with the dark side of the force. The personality of this droid is amazing. Watch your favorite Star Wars movie and let your droid act out for you. This is a lot of fun for the whole family

    My sons love this droid and especially love how it is controlled so easily. I love that it is not very big so it can hang out in any room and not get in the way until of course it is on the move. We want to buy and R-2 D-2 some day.

    Love this little guy. I mostly use him and R2-D2 when I watch the Star Wars movies to see their reactions. My wife thinks they are great as well......cats, not so much, lol

    My daughter and i play with R2-Q5 and R2-D2 all the time. These are so much fun I cannot even explain. I bought an R2-D2 for one of my co-workers and his kids, and another one for my boss. These are really great.

    My daughter and I love Star Wars and we love R2-Q5. I have to tip my hat to Sphero for another great Star Wars product. This is so much fun. We laugh every time R2-Q5 falls over. Just like R2-D2 which we love just as much.

    Got this with an idea to check it out for a while, then gift it to my kids. But I don't think I'm finished checking it out YET. Way more tech in this pint-sized package than in early space mission computers.

    Along with the other sphero droid products, this one is simply amazing! what's unique about this one is that the body is fully metal. R2-D2 and BB8 are both plastic. it runs fast even in carpet. this is a great purchase. definitely worth every penny. A must collectible for every starwars fan out there.

    Great Toy for Any Star Wars Fan

    This is a great toy for any Star Wars fan. It's a lot of fun controlling this robot and making him interact. Kinda wish they would include a controller for it though instead of using an app downloaded to my phone as that means the kids can't play with it if I am using my phone. But that's my only complaint.

    As with any other Sphero I own they are all great. My daughter loves the connectivity through the app where they can all y’all to one another. Have all 4 Star Wars droids. Hope Sphero makes more.
