My daughter was so excited to get this toy (she is 7). She asked for it for months. We took it out of the box and started playing with it. Didn't seem to be much like the commercial, BUT, you have to change the batteries they give you with her and then she works fine. My daughter loves it. She was a little disappointed that Willa din't hold more of a conversation with her, but still loves to play with her. The one thing I did not care for is that there is no volume control and she is very loud. I would recommends this to any little girl.
Having had problems finding the exact correct Fijit friend in stores or on line I turned to Mattel.com and thank goodness! My neice will be so excited on Christmas day this is all she wanted and it appears to be much more durable than i thought! It is soft and will be fun for her to interact with. Glad I bought it!
These are so darling! Gives a little girl a new best friend to play with and share with her little friends. So cute! My granddaughters are both getting one from Santa!
