Fun toy for kids and Star Wars fans
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty fun toy for anyone that is a fan of Star Wars. Being able to control it with a mobile device is part of the fun factor and look forward to future updates. It does have a hard time on thicker carpet.

Christmas Gift
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a Christmas gift I was unsure about but the recipient loved it. As far as the functionality of the BB-8 itself, it is really cool. The app allows you to freely move the “droid” in any direction and allows for multiple sounds depending on a variety of situations. I did not get a chance to see the projection quality but the fact it has that feature is awesome. Even if you aren’t a gigantic Star Wars buff but want a cool remote toy and don’t mind the higher price point, one of these would be a very cool solution.

This is the Droid you're looking for
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little droid with good controls and some personality! Much better than the cheaper versions from other companies. Very solid feel and construction - still great how the head stays on and upright while it's moving. The cat definitely likes chasing it around. Also neat how it can interact with movies and do holograms on your iphone. The controls on iphone work very well and was pretty easy to sync/setup. The Force is Strong with this One.
