This product is a piece of junk and a horrible choking hazard. As you will read the head and lower jaw pop off but also Donkey's ears come off. This was my toy but my two year old got a hold of it and broke the ear off in his mouth. I will be returning this product and will not buy another.(...) I strongly urge anyone who bought this product to write the CPSC about this so they can issue a recall on it.

I wish I could have given this one a ZERO for durability because it has earned it.
This toy has perhaps the worst design of any action figure/toy I have ever seen. It took my son less than 2 minutes of play to pop of the Donkey's jaw and then his head.
The jaw is not secured in place at all. It is meant to hinge open and closed to allow the donkey to "talk" during play. This is not very satisfying when the jaw immediately comes off. The head is meant to nod up and down and suffers from the same malady. The cheap plastic pegs holding it in place do not do their job. If you want a toy to "look at" and not touch then this is the toy for you...If you are looking for play value this one is a zero.

I was very dissapointed in this toy. I bought this toy for my 4 year old son.The package says for 4+, but doesn't say "small parts". My kids love Shrek and were so excited to open this toy. As soon as I handed it to my son the jaw fell off. When he gave it to me to fix, the head fell off. Every time I put it back together it fell apart a minute later. We both became very frustrated. I am very happy that I was there when the jaw fell off and my 22 month old didn't pick it up and put it in his mouth. I returned the toy to Toysrus and informed them that it was a choking hazard. I also called Hasbro to let them know that it was very poorly made and dangerous for anyone with young children in the house. I hope they change the design of this toy before a child chokes on it.

My favorite character in Shrek is Donkey. One day, I got this Mule Kickin' Donkey. When I started to play with the toy, his head popped off. When I tried to put the head back on, his jaw fell off! I told my parents about this. First they didn't believe me that the toy had a defect, they didn't believed me. But when I showed them, they were shocked with the toy. We went back to TOYS "R" US and reported this and exchanged it. I got Puss in Boots instead because he was my next favorite character and I liked it. The people who reported this, they were right! Down with Donkey! Get Puss in Boots!

We read these reviews but still took a chance with this toy when we bought the "Shrek 2 Action Packed Figure: Punchin' Shrek." The Shrek toy is great, very durable. But after only a minute or so of gentle play, Donkey's head fell right off. When reattaching it, his jaw proceeded to fall off. After reassembling Donkey repeatedly, we retired him to a shelf, to be looked at but not touched. :(

After finally finding this Donkey that my Granddaughter wanted so badly, I was very disappointed. I had barely gotten him out of the package and went to give him to her and his head fell off. She then picked his head up to hand to me to fix and his jaw popped off. Does Hasbro seriously expect children to be able to play with this character? Shame on them!!!!!!!!! My Granddaughter wanted a toy she could play with as she loves the movie Shrek. This toy is for display only because you certainly can't play with it.

(...) Donkey's head does not stay on for an entire play session. It is easy to replace, but with the parts being so small they can be easily lost. Nice to have to complete the set, but not very practical.

It is really cute and the waffle smells like syrup. Only drawback is when Donkey bucks if you don't hold the front legs he falls off the stand.

I have heard a lot of people complaining about this toy on this particular website, but I don't think that it's really as bad as some people say it is.Yes, the head and jaw can occasionally fall off, but it is surely nothing that you cannot fix in just a matter of seconds.I don't know about you other people out there, but I find this toy somewhat enjoyable and durable.
