Great Gold
I have this version of R2D2 and the larger one as well and find them both extremely capable and spot on as toy robots go. It autonomy features are remarkable. I say that as an engineer who makes decent enough autonomous devices, and the features in this robot are honed and responsive to a level that shames me. R2 is able to maneuver on deep pile rugs as well as hard flooring, a feat not too many robot toys can emulate. It's voice recognition is exceptionally well done and give R2 the endearing character recognized by Star Wars fans. Suffice to say that the product description for this toy is conservative at best, it does everything promised much better than one might expect or experience with other offerings. While its functions are somewhat complex, the same cannot be said of its operation. I would suggest that a five or six year old could easily master control of this robot and be able to use it to its full potential. But as it mentions in the instructions, keep him away from stairs and keep the safety on when he's on a table or something he could fall from. Falling over wouldn't likely harm the robot, but a fall from any height very likely would. That said, it is well constructed. It takes four D cell batteries plus four AA batteries and gets a lot of use from your average Energizer or Duracels. It doesn't suck batteries like a hungry vacuum cleaner as many toys do. Playing with the toy teaches the concepts of planning and programming on a rudimentary level, but is a good introduction on a very basic level. While youngsters love this, it's appealing to all ages. I gave my first one, the larger of the two from Astromech to my grandson and missed it enough to replace it with this one. They are equal in their abilities. R2 comes with excellent and easy to read and understand instructions, along with a 'cheater card' that reminds users of the commands it accepts. This is a wonderful toy and faithful to the original in looks and function.
