I really wanted to like this toy and thought my 6-year-old grandson would, too. And even though it is very cute, has several pieces included, and the garbage bin container was a hit with him, the robot itself was not fun to play with. First, it is really hard to get the parts to attach and even when that is done, they fall off constantly while playing with it or while trying to get another part attached/reattached. They don't "snap" in securely because they don't go far enough into the "hole." They are ball and socket type attachments which allows them to rotate somewhat but I think the material (a more rubbery plastic than a hard plastic) doesn't make for a tight enough fit. Whatever the reason for the parts falling off easily, it doesn't make it much fun to play with. My grandson tried to be positive about it, saying it was still cute and since it was a "junk" bot packed in a garbage can, maybe it was supposed to always be coming apart (and that's why it was a "thrown away in the garbage" design). He insisted I give it 2 Stars, not 1, but he actually only played with it for about 5 minutes and he absolutely loves action figure toys. He spent a bit more time playing with the skateboard that came with it and the plastic chain (which he liked a lot), but used them with other figures he already had instead of the junkbot robot. I do not recommend this particular Hexbug brand item, it is not fun like other items they make.
