    Bought as Christmas present for the kids. Once we figure out how to down the app, BB-8 took off. Took a while to get use to the band, but it works great.

    its a fun novelty, the excitement of sharing a fun form of entertainment with family and friends and the skill that is involved helps this product become more than an expensive toy.

    I got this for my wife and she can't get enough of it! The only downside is you have to have the Force Band or the app to hear it make any noise. Other than that, you gotta love BB8!

    This little guy performs pretty well. The dog goes crazy for him and generally he goes headless, but that aside, he's fun to play with. Hardwood clearly a must for proper operation.

    Great toy! My son loves driving him all over the house and the autonomous interaction with other Sphero droids is quite entertaining!

    Got this for my sons birthday. I have not seen such pure joy on his face for quite some time. He is a geek and what better reward than a geeks toy.

    This BB8 Is kind of hard to control in the beginning but once you get the hang of it it's lots of fun..... just be careful with it, it's not cheap.

    We were skeptical about buying this for our 11 year old grandson. After talking to a sales associate we changed our minds. He loves it.

    This thing is pretty cool, takes a little getting used to. Watch videos on how to work it it's a lot easier. Overall it's a thumbs up

    This was a great gift for my daughter. This toy does require some patience as it takes time to learn how to control BB-8.
