Great technology. Good learning tool. Fascinating for both kids and adults.

Doesn't like heavy carpet. Difficult to get out of the box.


General Comments

Just like last year's Robosapien, the Roboraptor is a fantastic piece of technology designed into a toy that's a lot of fun to play with. It's so realistic that pets often mistake it for a real animal. Children over about 12 years old will love it, but it may be a little frustrating to operate for children younger than 12.

It does use a lot of batteries, and even with fresh sets, they don't last long - around 7 hours of play seems to be the maximum you can expect.

One major attraction, at least for us and our children, was the fact that it has a 'roam' mode where you can just let it wander around and see what kind of trouble it gets into. The Roboraptor video here: http://www.robots-dreams.com/2005/10/raptor_plays_vi.html is a good example of what's possible with the Roboraptor roaming around by itself.
