WowWee - Minion MiP Turbo Dave Robot - Yellow

I guess I'm not sure how to start this review because it's a little odd but here we go... Upon opening the package which was in perfect condition with no dents or scuffs of any kind the little minion seem pretty cool. I went ahead and installed all the batteries with my little nephew who is quite excited at the time. I set it down on the floor and turn it on, turn the app on and he comes to life speaking his typical gibberish then I go to move him by pressing forward on the app remote... he went about 6 inches and stopped and fell flat on his face. My nephew and I both laughed out loud not realizing at the time that our little minion had just paralyzed himself. He was still speaking gibberish face in the floor and all... but his wheels would never turn again. I picked him up and set him up right and checked all connections within the app and replaced the batteries again with more brand new batteries. Nope... No turning wheels on this "Lemon Cart". Now my little nephew is not so excited but quite concerned. Not sure what to do, I explained to him that Dave the minion must be too tired to play, so we put it away for a nap... Luckily I had another toy or two in my "Lil'Man stockpile toy reserve" to take Dave's place. However I kind of forgot about Dave in the drawer where we laid him down to rest. A couple weeks later took him out of the drawer and tried again. Still nothing but a Lemon in blue Over'alls... I had planned on returning him but no longer had the receipt or box that he came in so I wrote it off as a loss. I'm sure that the Minions who stays awake and play are great... but my Minion sucked...

My 8 year old enjoys this little guy. Lots of options once you get the app and can program paths for it to go. The sounds get repetitive and borderline annoying. But thankfully, he only plays with it 10-20 min at a time.

My husband loves his Dave! He is not a techie! But he's wanting to learn how to play with his Dave the Minon!

I bought this for myself just because it looked like it would be fun to have. Boy was I right. It is hilarious to listen to. Now mind you I'm in my 70's but I like the Minions. I was having so much fun my wife got one for herself.I would give it 5 stars but the control app doesn't seem to work on my phone, and some times it take awhile to connect with my tablet. To us it is well worth the money.

Eight year old loves robots and minions so this was the perfect gift.

I'm a director for after school programs. I support introducing robotics and coding to very young children (Kindergarten & 1st) and I usually like WowWee products. But this falls short. Confusing controller, excessive Minion banter that gets in the way, jerky movements. Since I picked them up for $20 each I'll keep them but don't feel they are worth more than that.

Bought this for my nephew. He absolutely loves it.

It's so fun to play with. Just disappointed it didn't come with batteries.
