 
Hasbro FurReal Friends Squawkers McCaw Parrot
Rating:  -
I bought this toy parrot for my nine year old granddaughter after reading all the positive comments found here on Amazon. I had Mac in my guest bedroom for a month before our gift giving evening on December 22nd. When I took him out of his packing carton to see what he was about I was greeted with a cheerful "Hello!" and I was taken aback by this toys realism. After that first Hello Mac started his beginning repetoir and was soon breaking into song without the slightest provocation and at the strangest times (like 3:00 AM!) but he was strangely non-annoying and my husband and I found ourselves smiling and laughing over this little guy. Soon the time was coming near to giftwrap him and I kept finding reasons to put it off a little longer. I decided to buy a replacement for him so I would not feel so lonely when he went off to his new home. I came back to Amazon to find that it was sold out and most of the stores around me had empty shelves where Mac's brothers and sisters once sat awaiting their new homes and owners. I called my son on the 23rd to see how he was doing with his day of putting the toys together than my husband and I had given the kids. I could hear Mac talking away in the background and it was all I could do to not ask my son to put him on the phone, just to make sure he was happy and settling in OK. I guess the sadest thing was finding out that they had changed his name to Marty!!! Then, I realized something.....when I go and buy MY parrot I can name him Mac and hope to have the kind of relationship I had with "Marty" (Marty! Dumb name).
This wonderful toy is a wonderful new member of the family that will amuse and delight EVERYONE in your household no matter what their ages are. You won't be disappointed!

I wish that I had taken it out of the box before I gave it to my daughter - because you can program 6 custom phrases into it. If she had heard the parrot say her name unexpectedly, she would've flipped out! lol! She loves this thing, and has been carrying around with her since she got it. It's a little hit or miss whether you'll get the right response to the things you say, but it's still fun.

In my opinion, this item is not up to what the manufacture says it is...unless I just got unlucky and got a "lemon". The bird attracts a lot of visitors since I have it out on our screened-in porch, but no one has been able to get it to do the things "they" say it suppose to. Maybe this one just isn't the smartest one they made.

I bought this for my youngest son. My 3 older children and I had a blast programing the bird's phrases. We liked the automatic adlib conversations and the fact that you can program the remote to say what you want, when you want it. Everyone at my house can't wait until Christmas morning so they can play with it again!

Lots of fun, and a party favorite. This is my daughters, yet I have just as much fun with it as well!
