    Simply amazing. Price went down so grab the opportunity in completing your collections. I owned all of the sphero droids and love them all. If you are a Star Wars fan this is a must have toy for you.

    Not as cool as R2-D2

    Not as interactive as R2-D2 model and also moves slower. Still very cool. Smooth exterior almost feels like glass. Interactions between the droids and with the movies is very entertaining.

    Definately cool looking! paint and design is excellent! only draw back is it can't move smoothly without falling on carpets. unfortuantely it can only be put on shelves at our home, but this one purpose is worth it.

    I love the obscure droids from the Star Wars universe, so had to add this one to my collection. I love that the sound comes from the robot itself—same as with Sphero R2-D2.

    This thing is just spectacular. I did not just leave it in the box as I had to at least try it and let the kids play with it a little. Man it is cool, get you one, TODAY!

    Much better than the r2d2 I had back in the 70s which I also bought in the Sphero model too... I still miss that guy... but this is by far better with more controls and features.

    Cool toy, but not that much that it can do. It could do a lot more. I have wood floor at home and the droid could not make it over room dividers or area rugs, so it limited the space it could be used on.

    After hearing more about the negative or lack of features. I still wanted one and at 39.99 you can’t beat it. Hopefully there will be a couple of more upgrades soon.

    My kid loved the droid. I got it on a deal of the day for $49.99. He had a blast with it! and still holds it as a collectible on display. I would recommend it.

    The price was unbeatable for such a wonderful little droid. So many cool features. It feels like the filming droid was drunk down. Totally true to the film.
