1.0 out of 5 stars Does nothing, right out of the box!, April 5, 2009

My son loves all things to do with dogs, so he HAD to have the mini wrex dowg robot. I bought it for him, and surprised him today with it, and he rolled it around a bit before we went out and bought some batteries for it.. Once we did, the thing turns on, makes a motor noise, and appears to be TRYING to turn the wheels, but even with the toy up in the air, it just wiggles the wheels.. they dont turn at all. It appears that all this toy is meant to do is go forward, but ours didn't even do that, right out of the box..

I'm glad my son loves dogs because he'll probably have as much fun just putting him where he wants a dog to be in his playing, but if you expect your toy to do more than "sit and stay" then this is not the toy for you.. Paid $6 at radio shack and feel ripped off..

The legs do pose, so at least you can make him sit in the pose you want..

Wrex spins around without direction...and that is it. He is the miniature version of another Wowee Wrex dog, so essentially he is a toy of another toy. The other,larger, Wrex has a lot of functions, but this product is more similar to a happy meal toy.

My son got this toy as a gift for his birthday. He loved it and played with it for quite a while before we even put batteries in it. Once we did put batteries in, he rolled it around once or twice before turning it off for several house. When he tried to turn it on again, the wheels spun until we put it down on a flat surface. The little bit of friction between the wheels and the hardwood floor was suddenly too much for Wrex, and the wheels stopped moving. The motor was still whirring like crazy, but the dog didn't go anywhere. We even tried changing the batteries for brand new ones, but it didn't help. What a disappointment - he probably had it on for a total of five minutes throughout the day before it stopped working.
