 
WowWee Roboreptile Robotic Reptile
Rating:  -
We purchased this for our sons 6th birthday. It is an absolute blast. He easily controls the reptiles actions using the remote control. The reptile behaves like a big puppy. The price is coming down on these things. I highly recommend getting one now before they are all gone.

Bought this for a 10 year old who absolutely loves it (once he got it away from all the adults who wanted to play with it)!! Don't have any problems with it moving on the carpet or anywhere else. Got this item when it was on sale for $24.99 and it was definitely worth it.

This toy is advertised as too rough (aggressive) and therefore not suitable for children ages 5 and under. That's laughable! This toy gets some smiles and giggles, because it resembles a tiny puppy. It is very gentle. Sure it swings its head and tail, but in a playful manner. It moves (walks) in an akward manner, again, similar to a puppy learning to walk. A child loses interest after about an hour or less. After the holidays, I'll keep it in its orginal shipping box and maybe in about 20 years, it'll have some antique value.

I'm not going to waste anyone's time by
writing a long review so here goes:
Bottom Line:
Roboreptile is fast, fun, and ferocious. He works best on surfaces that are smooth and hard, and he also works best in a well-lit location. He isn't the most advanced robot on the market, but he is very tough and resillient. I believe that this robot would be a much better choice for smaller children than Pleo, even though his capability to interact is considerably less.
Bottom line, roboreptile is a great robot and is very enjoyable to have around.

we bought two of these - one to keep and one as a gift for a family member. the first one, the box was pretty damaged, but the dinosaur was in great shape. the second one, the box was in great shape, but an arm was missing! returned to amazon and received a replacement in a decent amount of time which appears to be intact.
the cats really enjoy it. i set it on roam and let them stalk it. :) i love that it actually reacts to things in its environment. if you walk in front of it, it will "snap" at you! it's great interaction for the cats. surprisingly, they don't seem to be scared of the mechanical sounds it makes. i had to turn the sound effects volume down, though, because it was beginning to give me a headache.
i am sort of disappointed in how fast it seems to run through batteries. we ran out the first set in the first night!! (either that, or it keeps draining batteries after you turn it off...)
also, i was a bit worried that i wasn't going to get it out of the box when it arrived. there are two tiny screws attaching it to the packaging, and it took several tries before i could find a screwdriver small enough to fit in the hole to get to the screws. i thought i was going to have to wait until i could go to my parents' and borrow a screwdriver before i could play with our new toy, but luckily i finally found one that fit.
overall, though, it's a great toy!
