Sphero Star Wars BB-8 App Enabled Droid by Sphero

Product Information

Please note: The App is complimentary and may be modified or discontinued at any time for any reason without notice. The hottest BB8 remote control toy on the market. These droids sell like hotcakes at Christmas, and one can clearly see why. This app-enabled robot is advanced and authentic. The static display is very lifelike, and the size is almost the same or at least 75% similar to the real one. There isn’t a single toy with the same size and interactive features as the one shown on the big screen.

As I’ve said before, not all of them are the same, and the most advanced feature-rich model will be expensive. If your child is really into the BB-8 character, then it is probably worth it. The noises that it makes aren’t that loud but having a turn-off switch is certainly better. If you don’t prefer the delicate models, Sphero provides and want something simple, easier to control, and bigger, this is the one. It doesn’t have any choking hazard rating, which means it is perfectly safe for toddlers. This inflatable toy is also very durable and doesn’t lose air. The controls are easy to use, and you can also turn off the sounds. It doesn’t have a smooth surface, the Sphero. As you control it, it will make a lot of different droid sounds. Even if you let it sit for a while, it will automatically make some noises on its own. This one has embroidered accents with silky print fabric that highlights all its beautiful designs. As far as design, it is just like the movie.Some models are in-between with some interactive features but not as delicate as the programmable, trainable, motion-sensing, app-controlled models like Sphero makes. The results were amazing. They turned the original Sphero into a BB8 toy that was used in the movie. It has lots of cool interactive features and mobility. The Force Band is a really cool attribute because you can use this to control this droid by just moving around your arm, waving, pushing, and pulling. The best part is that it is the largest and most accurate version you will probably see on the market unless Sphero makes their version big enough. Till then, this is probably closest to the actual thing.

The features for these Droids depend on the price levels you are willing to spend. Normally, the features include authentic Lights, Sounds, and Appearance. It’s also kind of wobbly as it moves around, and sometimes it doesn’t move in a straight line. The rolling sound is rougher than most BB-8 RC toys in this list, and that’s partly due to the surface being detailed. This stuffed toy isn’t for a true BB-8 fan, but it isn’t disappointing. Great for small kids who like to throw stuff. It has a foam fill that makes it squishy, and the appearance is very close to the real thing. It is tough enough to stand up to typical toddler abuse. This BB8 moves better on hardwood floors and does passably on the carpet. Use the speakers and mic in your smartphone or tablet to listen and speak to BB-8 to create an even more magical experience, which will in turn help to build a stronger relationship as it'll recognise your voice.
