I said, no, too expensive and he got a little Bakugan transformer instead. But we always get him a present on his Dad's birthday so he has something to open too, so I ordered this on desertcart. It's a fantastic toy, and worth the money! They know don't they! They have an instinct for what is a good toy (usually). It caused us all great entertainment. It is educational too - he copies what it says sometimes so now knows it is a bi-ped and a bi-ped walks on two legs and can say Tyrannosaurus Rex. It goes into a kind of standby mode when not being played with, which is hilarious. It will be silent for a while then suddenly you hear this little voice "I want to eat you!" Recently, little one decided to spend his saved up birthday money and saw the blue one in a shop, so we got it. Unfortunately it was a French version! But also hilarious. I said I'd take it back and we would order the proper English version on desertcart - but he then decided he wanted to swap it for the red Pteranodon instead. So the red one was ordered, but meanwhile he had got quite attached to the French Triceratops as he said it sounded funny. So kept that as well - maybe he'll learn some French. Ouch - have now bought two of these - and he paid for one with his birthday money. Personally I think this green T Rex is the best of the three. But he prefers the red one at the moment. They all have some very funny sayings - some of which only happen when it is in standby mode. A really excellent toy that any boy will love. Review: simply transformer toy (and it does turn off) - Having bought a few real 'transformers' and found them too complex for my 2.5 year old, we grabbed this as it switches from car to trex in about 3/4 clicks. It's very tough, has bags of variety (although the voice is the same irrespective of which driver you select) and you CAN turn it off - hold the blue button on the right for 5 secs and it then says "goodbye" - just don't kick it in the night as it has a sensor which auto turns it on. You can also turn the volume to one of three settings which is a good idea. We've got loads of Wow toys, but these compliment them well as a noisy, flashier alternative. Great toy and plan to get more dinos and Vtech toot toot driver stuff for his birthday.
