    Hero Droid BB-8 is big fun!
    I’m a pretty big Star Wars fan, so when I saw this I immediately went to YouTube and watched some reviews. They were all positive, so I took a chance and ordered this little guy. I gotta say, he’s awesome! Spin Masters did an excellent job.This BB-8 is heavy and well constructed. Initial setup is simple and intuitive. The instructions do recommend fully charging both the head and body prior to first-time use (which I did). Battery life is good. I get about 40-45 minutes of run time on a single charge.Controlling him is pretty basic with the included controller. And yes, the controller does look and feel cheap. This is only real negative I have to say about this product, but it warrants a mention because the actual droid itself looks so great...it just feels like it deserved a controller to match. His head will fall off if you hit something while moving too fast, but once you get the hang of the controls it becomes a non-issue. Besides, his head is magnetized, making reattachment super easy in the event BB-8 gets a little over zealous and runs into something.Overall I’m having a blast with this product. It’s a quality build, controls well, and moves great along a variety of surfaces (carpet, tile, hardwood). My kids love it as well and are having a fun time driving him around the house (5 and 7 year olds). I recommend this for kids and adults alike. It’s a fun toy and/or collectors piece. 5 stars!

    Reviewed in Canada on August 1, 2019
    My son absolutely loves this BB8 droid. This is the droid you're looking for! The controls are touchy so it takes a bit to get used to but once you do get used to it, it's not bad. My son is 3 and uses it pretty good, considering. The batteries in the head and body last for a while of play, the follow me mode is pretty cool- though if you don't keep walking he will run right into you! Ouch for the toes, he's heavy. He listens to the commands well, and if there's too much noise he will get confused. It is cute to watch my son treat this thing like his best friend, they talk to each other and all! I would recommend this to any star wars fan, droid fans, even kids who like to use remote controlled cars, fantastic!
