Kung Fu Panda - Kung Fu Kickin' PO

 (5 customer reviews)

I bought this for my 2 year old niece who is a Kung Fu Panda nut and she loves it. Though, at first, it was a little scary to her since it does so many actions and has numerous sayings but, now, she loves it. It spins around, kicks and swings the nun chucks and brings many giggles and smiles. The sayings are numerous and varied and voiced over by Jack Black. This isn't a 'cuddle' toy since there is obviously a lot of electronics inside but would make a great gift for any young Kung Fu Panda fan.

Our kids love the movie 'Kung Fu Panda'; we love it! I saw this cute talking, kicking, spinning Po for a reasonable price and jumped at it for our 7 year old's birthday. Since just after birth, she has collected, carried, cuddled them- Pandas are her critters.

It lives up to it's reviews. Fairly good size, it's best to place the support leg, with the 2 buttons on the foot, on a solid surface, e.g., tile or linoleum. It states that it will scratch wood furniture. We've yet to hear the "50+" phrases, but it entertains quite well; however, the girls say the voice is a little bit different than Jack Black's. I don't know, it's pretty close to me, but they're the experts.

It uses AA's, seems fairly durable- one never knows about these robot toys, but it's lasted a lot of initial use. Overall, I think I love it more than they do. They play it for a while and then move on. No real educational value, but oh well, enjoy just for fun.

My 2 and 4 yr old love this toy, a boy and a girl. It reminds me of the effect that the Tickle me Elmo had on children. The balance is only good on a nice hard surface, so carpet is a no-go. Well worth it if you can find one under $30.
