| These Gravity Bots Transformers are perfect for the young kid who isn't quite ready for the complicated Transformer figures. My son is three. We purchased a few figures that said "4 and up" and "5 and up." I played with Transformers as a kid but some of these new ones are tough. Then I discovered the Gravity Bots! They transform enough that my son is still enchanted and I don't have to hear "mommy transform him to a truck, mommy transform him to a robot" every five minutes. The "automatically converts" concept is a blessing! We've purchased several for birthday parties. I highly recommend if your young one is starting to like Transformers. Older children may get bored with them though. Oh yeah, ours have been dropped several many times on hardwood and tile floors. They hold up well! |
Bought these for my 4 and 5 year old..wonderful!

| Whoever came up with these Gravity Bots is brilliant. After buying multiple Transformers for my 4 and 5 year old boys, and them not being able to transform them, and the pieces falling apart, these Gravity Bots are magnificent. Easy to transform, they can do it themselves, and the boys love them! We got Optimus, and Starscream. These toys are great for the younger boys! |
Good purchase

| This transformer is fine for age 3 and up. It almost transforms by itself. Older kids won't find it much of a challenge, but may still play with it since transformers are so admired. |
smaller....but possibly better

| ill admit, i dont own a single gravity bot transformer...but watching video reviews on youtube, sadly, i think these are probably much more fun to transform than the bigger (configuration level 3 &4) transformers. i have starscream from first film and optimus from second, and my god! they make the rubix cube look like a piece of cake. i would rather, yes im admitting this, i would rather own all gravity bots than purchase another 3 or 4 configuration level transformer. the new transformers are NOT the old transformers...if you know what i mean. |
Great For Toddlers or Youngsters

| These gravity toys are amazingly simple yet awesome for a young person who does not have the coordination, dexterity, or capability to manipulate the more difficult transformer toys. My son who is 3 has all of the gravity bots. My son loves transformers and I couldn't find one that could be morphed back and forth to meet his imaginative play needs. He was constantly bringing me the other transformers and asking me to change them for him...until now. These toys use a weight system triggered by a button nicely hidden button and automatically actuated based on position. My only caution is that if your child is fairly aggressive or destructive with their toys, these do have the potential to be broken easily if a child were to repeatedly try to force the transformation manually rather than let them do it automatically, and they don't have articulation. "Video Sharing" websites have good video reviews so you can see the bots in action. These are awesome and a good investment for the youngsters, buy one, you'll be amazed and want the collection. |
