***********************************

I ordered this for my nephew's 3rd birthday. When it arrived, I tested it out and even put in fresh batteries. Something was wrong with the one that I got because the voice was garbled and slurred, and the movement was choppy. It seems to be a fragile bank, but since my nephew loves Darth Vader, I quickly asked for a replacement. Amazon.com is great with exchanges because they handled my situation immediately and shipped out a replacement just in time for my nephew to receive it. Otherwise, Darth Vadar is menacing-looking, the sound is unreal LOUD, and the fact that the light-saber lights up as Darth Vader lifts his arm up and around is so cool. Oh, his cape thing is made of soft rubber so there's some movement to it too. The other reviewer said there's no movement when a coin is dropped in...I think that's a defect in his/her bank cuz mine goes through the whole song and dance when I drop a coin in.

My 5 yr old son got this for his birthday. It is very detailed. When you press the button, you hear the Empire March, then Vader says "Impressive, Most Impressive, but you are not a Jedi Yet". then he raises his lightsaber, which lights on and makes the lightsaber sound. then he puts it down and the march tune again. Bank mostly for coins, but no action when you put the coin in, only when you press the button. Could be a little annoying when your kid presses the button alot in a short time. No volume control on it, and it is quite loud. Overall, a cool bank

I was shopping for the Holidays and ran into this Darth Vader bank...once I pushed the button I laughed so hard! I just had to have it! The sound effects are cool! Yeah you guessed it - I'm an adult and I bought it for myself!! My spouse thinks I'm nuts but hey - It's Star Wars!

My son was estatic over this toy. He must have dumped a few dollars in change in it after opening it. Awesome sound, motion, and lightsaber. I just hope he's not coin dropping at 3 in the morning..it'll wake the house up!

Big hit with my 5 year old son. The Darth Vader Bank appears to be reasonably sturdy. No problems. Can't get enough of that theme song ...

My cousins have this bank, and whenever I'm at their house, and I walk by it, I just press the button! It's great, and it can teach you to save your money, too!

My daughter just lost her first two teeth and I gave her this bank to put her tooth fairy coins in. She absolutely loves it and so do I! I am worried after reading other reviews about it's durability because she would be crushed if Darth no longer worked.

It is the coolest money box ever. The words are clear & it is just amazing . Its picture does not do it justice, the figure is larger & has much more detail , it exceeded my expectations !!

I had purchased this bank for my 5 year old grandson. When he opened the box it would not function. The Star Wars bank was NIB but the batteries had been left inside and corroded the wires. Corrosion was almost solid in the battery box. Needless to say our grandson was disappointed. Amazon's return policy is excellent and my full purchase price was refunded.

This bank has great sound and light effects and has just enough motion to convey the formidable aspect of Darth Vader. I bought this as a birthday gift for a young boy who loves to read Star Wars books, and I know he will enjoy it!
