I bought this belt for my son last Christmas. He was 3 years old. The belt constantly fell to his ankles and I tried many things to keep it on including sticking a folded towel between his back and the belt, I could not prevail against this belt. He was so disappointed. We returned the belt and decided this year He will be over 4 years old and maybe it will fit. If not we can try when He is 5 years old. Anyway you look at it the belt is a dynamic idea...but should of been designed for the 3 year olds of heart.

My son earned this belt for finally being potty trained. It sat on top of the refrigerator for 2 months while my son would look dreamily up at it. He was so excited when he finally got to open it his 3 year old hands were shaking. He loved it, at first. Now he still loves it, but it frustrates him constantly. The belt does not fit around his waist. It is not even close to fitting, it constantly falls down around his ankles. He walks all hunched over when he wears it so it will stay up. I don't know what type kid this was designed for, but I can wear it, with a few extra notches to spare (and I am not petite!) He also gets frustrated because the "gas pellets" get stuck in the specially designed pocket. All in all this was not the great toy we thought is was going to be.

I got this belt for my 4 yr old. Its HUGE! I need to layer him up and put it on the last setting to stay on. Either that or feed him an entire box of hoho's/ring dings a day. That is a bit dissapointing. Other than this belt is 200% nicer than the belt that comes with the mask/cape/talking chest plate. (which is why we needed to buy this belt.) He plays with it maybe 2-3 times a week since recieving it from Santa. Would be nice if the company offered a delux set with all the nice masks, gloves, cape and belts vs needed to buy 3 sets from the same manufacturer just to get the right look.

My suggestion is get the muscle holloween costume and get this belt. That would be the ultimate play costume...but I couldn't find the halloween costume around Christmas... so santa had to improvise and bring this with the other sets. The belt is nicer than the glove set and the talking chest plate set.

My son loves everything batman. He even calls himself batman, so when his 3rd birthday came, we thought the perfect gift would be this utility belt. How wrong we were! The belt won't fit around his waist. We stuck a folded hand towel in the back to keep it up. The pellet foam gun, which turned out to be his favorite part, broke within 1 hour of play. He now won't wear the belt. He does however still play with the flashlight that came with it. Thankfully, I was more disappointed than he was.

I bought this belt for my son's 3rd Christmas and although it was too big for his waist - he still enjoyed 'the gear' that came with the belt. He has played with this belt many times over the years, and so have his friends. He's 5 1/2 now and wore the belt as part of his Halloween costume. Everything still works just like when we bought it. If you use rubber bands to hold the 'gear' down your little caped crusader is ready for anything. He played the button for people giving out candy and everyone, the people giving out candy, the other trick-or-treaters and Robby had a blast!

I bought the Bat belt for my son again. Now he is four going on five. I have learned that if I put the belt on him and pull it real snug past the last loop then use some duct tape for a few wraps, he can squeeze in and out of it real easy and it stays on him while he is playing. He loves it now. Bat tip. Pick a closet and hang a dark sheet down in the open doorway with a flashlight on in the closet. Then line up a few chairs with a sheet over them connecting to the closet entrance. Then hang a Batman costume with the Bat Belt and mask in the closet. Set some music playing from the first Batman movie. 1990. My son crawls through the chairs like a batcave entrance to find his costume waiting for him in the closet. Then he crawls back out to do battle with me while the music is playing. Sometimes I surprise him, he hears the music and runs to the den cause he knows it's Bat time.

I got this at Target years ago but within 10 minutes of play the flashlight broke. This upset me and I took it back, now I realise that I would have played with until it was destroyed. I wouldn't have bought it if I wasn't really little with money to burn a hole in my pocket.

My little boy loves it ! It was intended it as a secondary gift for Xmas but as soon as He saw it, he put it on and play all Xmas night and the following days (He even was sleeping with the belt). The quality, simplicity of use and the security are flawless. All of the accesories included are pretty beautiful, well designed and constructed. Highly reccomended!
