| Though the appeal of this toy and the whole Star Wars thing is lost on me, my (...) nephew is positively enthralled with it. He continues to play with it months after I gave it to him. I was pleased to have a hit! |

| We are all having a good time with Yoda. Our adult sons and some friends who have visited have had a good laugh, as well as just enjoying it......the stories, his movement, etc. |

| Dominick love his Yoda. He has taken him to school for "show and tell" and he takes him to bed at night. Other than developing Dominick's memory function I don't think there is much educational value to the toy. |

| This interactive toy is amazing. It has such a huge variety of things to say and even understands your answers. Great buy and was the hit of the birthday party. |

I was surprised to see how lifelike, detailed, and animated Call Upon Yoda is. Yoda will occasionally nod his head, blink, move his arms, and even wiggle his ears while speaking to you. With the exception of Story mode, Yoda is very entertaining and fun to interact with. The Trivia and Answer Question modes are fun and easy to navigate through by pressing Yoda's left hand for "no" and right hand for "yes."
I do, however, have a few minor complaints. Because Yoda's eyes never really fully open, it appears as if he is always sleepy and staring at the ground. Also, the motors that move Yoda's head and arms are rather loud and detract from his realism. Finally, in Story mode, Yoda speaks with such "broken" english that the stories are very difficult to understand and not enjoyable to listen to.
All in all, this little guy is pretty cool and he looks great standing on a desk or shelf. I would recommend Call Upon Yoda to any Star Wars fan young or old. |

I was originally thinking of just getting the "Ask Yoda" version of the toy, but I found that this version has the "Ask Yoda" feature, PLUS 4 other interactions. It's too cool to NOT buy one.
I think an option to reprogram the sayings by sending new sayings to it would be even cooler. I want my Yoda to combine the wisdom of Billy Bob Thornton and throw out lines from "Sling Blade" for those 'special' occasions (maybe if I double click his hand...)
Anyway, if you're getting an exective desk toy, you might consider the simpler "Ask Yoda". If you're getting a toy for someone under 20, get this one. And if you work for an executive under 20, quick shopping amazon and get back to work :-)
The only drawback of the new version is that it takes C size batteries, not the more universal 'AA' battery. |
