AMAZING especially considering with that discount, this is not much more than the Sphero BB-8 and this BB-8 is so much bigger, has many more features and comes with its own remote. Again, thanks for the review. Always nice to see reviews from fellow fans.
Great review. I've been having a ton of fun with this droid. Next year I hope Spin Master makes a BB-9E as a rival to this. Most definitely the Star Wars collectible to pick up this year.
Hold down the button on the remote for 3 seconds and he will turn around so you don't have to do the forwards backwards thing to get him facing in the opposite direction.
Might wanna mention the follow me mode does require an open space (It works fine, it just does run into things from time to time. he has no sensors to prevent it.)
Whoah! $243.80 after taxes? I got mine for $50+ tax on Black Friday last year. Love him. Got the big r2d2 one like him and the interactive Yoda that does everything. They all are fun at the same time.
Picked it up for $150 on Amazon. Important note, make sure head is oriented in the proper direction, or control will be horrible. And head does attach when bb-8 is turned off.
Bro I'm working on a working bb-8 I've been working on for 9 min now probably going to take 24 hour wow that's 1 day bb-8 is going to be my first star wars robot!
Thanks man! Of the two big RC toys I reviewed recently, I had a lot more fun with this one over the Batmobile. Having a physical controller was a huge part of that, I think.
I have the hero droid BB eight, and the Darth Vader, both of which you have reviewed. First of all, nice reviews. Secondly, I was wondering if you have ever seen the Star Wars legendary Yoda.
Gamestop your headquarters for Star Wars collectibles? Would you say that if they didn't send this to you? Gamestop stores don't usually carry alot of toys. Toys R Us, Target, Walmart and others have a much better selection of Star Wars merch.
Does anyone know if you need remote to work for voice commands? The remote I got doesn’t even turn on and bb8 won’t work, it blinks system error. Trying to figure out to fix for my son
You will need the remote for the voice commands to work yes. Depending on when you bought it and where you bought it from the battery inside is more than likely shot. I have two of these, the battery inside, although replaceable with a lot of effort, only lasts a certain amount of time. It needs to be charged at least once every three months, otherwise it just dies completely.
Yeah, I think it will. It seems to have a lot of power behind it. I might be concerned about gravel scratching it up if use excessively, though. But it does also seem to be a tough toy, so it may not be so bad. :-)
Dude I would have killed to have this droid toy as a kid.
What am I saying, I'd kill to have it now.
Yeah man. Back when i watched this in 2017, I got it. Still got BB8, even made my own afterwards.
Got this BB 8 on black friday for my 3 yrs son for this Christmas 2018 present. This will bright him up.

Oh wow, that would be so much fun if they did!
If my wife is watching.....hint hint 25th December, present idea? That BB8 is astoundingly awesome!
Haha!
Pixel Dan, you know it my friend! I got to have that!

That's wonderful advice! Thanks!!
Pixel Dan, I love you enthusiasm! This is an amazing droid and a great review!
The fact that this bb8 is so advanced I can only imagine that we not very far away from sentient droid
Edwin O'Gray ima be getting one of these
some dude is ready to put some ai in there lol
im 5 years late. never was a fan of star wars but this is the coolest star war toy i have ever seen.
I know what i want Santa to get me this year.
It's seriously fun. If Santa brings it, I think you'll love it.
Holy crap! That's amazing!! Thanks for reviewing this guy. Now I know I have to have it!
Thanks for watching!!
Awesome review Dan. Actually so far I would say the best one yet!
Wow, thanks!
You're welcome.
Just picked one up today. Still charging but I can't wait to try him out! Thanks for the upload!
That thing is AMAZING! Dan, i gotta have one. It's a shame it is not 1:1 scale but it is so AMAZING that i can forgive that.
Agreed, but it's close at least! And great fun, for sure!
Whoah! $243.80 after taxes? I got mine for $50+ tax on Black Friday last year. Love him. Got the big r2d2 one like him and the interactive Yoda that does everything. They all are fun at the same time.
I got it at Target last week for 25$ clearance repackaged. Works fine and is a ton of fun me and my kitten enjoy it a lot :)
A Great Review I just got mines haven’t opened it yet
Picked it up for $150 on Amazon. Important note, make sure head is oriented in the proper direction, or control will be horrible. And head does attach when bb-8 is turned off.
wonder when this little guy will be released here in germany, I so much want one ...
Bro I'm working on a working bb-8 I've been working on for 9 min now probably going to take 24 hour wow that's 1 day bb-8 is going to be my first star wars robot!
I got BB 8 before Black Friday for $51.00 what a steal
Same. Been waiting for the price to drop. This is a hell of a deal.
That’s awesome 🤩 have one coming I’m not sure if there is a remote or what I can do about that ?
you got one with no remote? i guess you have a nice statue
Very talented aurator Dan..great, honest review as usual. Cool toy
Thanks man! Of the two big RC toys I reviewed recently, I had a lot more fun with this one over the Batmobile. Having a physical controller was a huge part of that, I think.
How big is this bb8 compared to the movie scale bb8 ? Awesome review . It’s pretty amazing
with bb8, you awaken your inner child and your inner child gets to play again.
I love Star Wars and Darth Vader And BB8, BB9E 💖💖💖👍👍👍😂😂😂
Getting it for Christmas (me) Christmas 🎄
nice bb8 also spin master bought the license for monster trucks so mattel no longer can do them after next year
Currently playing with a sphero bb8 at work lmao
I love the Sphero one, too!
Thanks for a great review. Now just gotta talk hubby into it :) Shouldn't be too hard after seeing this.
I have the hero droid BB eight, and the Darth Vader, both of which you have reviewed. First of all, nice reviews. Secondly, I was wondering if you have ever seen the Star Wars legendary Yoda.
So dope! I want one. Thanks for this awesome review.
My oldest son actually bought me this for Xmas!
We need an r2d2 spin master
That is pretty cool looking.
The head does go on even if he’s off I’ve got one to
I love it
Looks like a lot of fun!
Bro where to buy?
This sucker is SO COOL... I definitely want me one of these. I just need to find me the one lotto scratch off that'll let me get one, lol.
Nice Video U deserve 1 million Subs
How long will batteries last if you leave him on in stationery mode?
I want that BB8.
Great review
The other BB-8 controlled by your phone made by spero’s head is magnetic
Another great review love it
Can u help me my remote doesn't seem to sync up, am i doing something wrong
Can this be bought on sites like amazon ebay or aliexpress?
Gamestop your headquarters for Star Wars collectibles? Would you say that if they didn't send this to you? Gamestop stores don't usually carry alot of toys. Toys R Us, Target, Walmart and others have a much better selection of Star Wars merch.

Umm where can u buy this bb-8?
where else when your 5 years late like me,, eBay!
They need to do this for R2D2. That would be cool.
They have
Can bb-8 go on carpet?
Yes. He can even go outside, just be careful of bumps. The magnets aren't the strongest and his head tends to pop off.
Damn I need one of these now I love it I work at ups and I saw this I wanted to take it so bad lol.
Haha!
Where do you buy it i really want it
Where can I get this gm from
Awesome review, I picked one up the other day, can't want to play around with it.
Where did you buy yours?
At a toy sale I worked at.
How much did these go for?.
You are amazing! Love youuuu!
OMG😍 I want it !
$229 - wow. It's 10/17/19 now and I got him for $40
I just picked one up at Target for 50 bucks too. Apparently it was an unopened online return, and they didnt know what to do with it.
Hi, do you know where can I get it?
Do you think it would roll on a side walk or street?? Love the video!
Yeah, I think it will. It seems to have a lot of power behind it. I might be concerned about gravel scratching it up if use excessively, though. But it does also seem to be a tough toy, so it may not be so bad. :-)
Pixel Dan awesome thank you. I'm debating on getting one. But of course I want to take it with me lol. Love the video man!
Yes - I had it on a baseball field - grass, dirt, etc
Is that the 200$ version
on sale at Target for $129!!
Yup!
It is great
Since I had GameStop at Christmas Mom said that Target and my mom bought it for me at Christmas
The baldy and magnetic are put the goo stuff on it it doesn't go on but you couldn't watch this they'll kick it on I saw that before it works

Hey Dan can you pin this comment you are the coolest I️ watch you when you post
*HeeEy GUys*
Frosty droid
It almost costs 500 dollars
Send it to pakistan
Nadie y entiende tio
Hmmm 2 years later I think that toy is about 15 pounds
A working one is still very pricey. Even a broken one will command quite a bit.
