Cracking toy!
My wife and I gave our 5 year old this for his birthday and he absolutely loves it! It does exactly what it says on the tin. It's an R2D2 that you can control remotely! It's very well made being nice and solid and has happily taken a mauling from my 1 year old daughter and still works a treat.

The inner geek in me absolutely loves how realistic it is. R2 beeps and chirps exactly as he does in the films and the controls allow me to mimic R2's movements perfectly. I have to say I've had many a go on this after the kids are in bed and I love it too!

I'm just waiting for a whole range of remote control astromech droids to come out. I'd be buying them for sure!

Bottom line- Don't think about it, just buy it!

R2 Does the Business

Little droid in the house!
How utterly sad am I writing this review on Christmas Day? As I type I can hear R2D2's little bips and chirps in the background as he makes his way up the hall. Massively realistic! Our six year old is completely captivated by it and I just wanted to let everyone know that this really is a bit of a bargain. I'm not sure how many serious falls it will survive but it looks pretty sturdy.

Of course I've had a little go myself - really simple for a small kid to operate and a pleasure to unwrap too - didn't take 5 million years to get it out of its packaging like most toys these days.

I'm not sure what the person who gave it 4 stars is doing writing a review before she's seen the child actually play with it. In my view, this gets five stars every time.

Back to the Christmas chaos...
