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.

Duping innocent citizens online has all the moral stature of child molestation. You acquire the patina of propriety while you spread your webs to ensnare shoppers who don't yet know how many petty thieves roam the Web seining for someone honest, naive, optimistic enough to 'connive' with them. Often, these dupes are led into increasingly criminal pastimes and find one day that they no longer associate with
Internet slime; now the ARE it.

If we all shun such misdemeanors and distractions from our just pursuits they will drift to the margines of concourse, there to linger in hope of sighting a stray.

We bought this toy for our nephew and then ended up keeping it for our son as we thought it looked so neat. We had watched the Wrex the Dog video review on YouTube and were not aware that we were only buying the "mini version". The eyes only roll if you press the nose, and when we turned it on to walk and "roll" like it says on the box, it didn't even move. You could hear the motor going but the dog stayed put. The limbs move if they are manually moved, and thats about as far as this toy goes. I agree with the other reviewer-- its about the quality of a Happy Toy Meal. Major disappointment.

Bought the mini wrex dawg for my 4 year old twin boys Robot Birthday Party and it was a huge hit. All the kids played with this little guy and my boys have played with him every day since. Love it!... great deal and a lot of fun for under $10.

This dog does not do what the videos state. I was extremely disappointed. All it did was walk very slowly. Not entertaining at all!

I bought this toy because of its resonable price. The dog is very durable but does not do too much. It walks, and is good for a young child. 2 to 5 years old. Its cute with rolling eyes.

What a waste! Don't bother with this one. It is "supposed" to roll around on the ground. And, while the wheels spin if held up in the air, they don't move when in contact with the ground. Thus, the dog does not move. My son got this one and the Roboquad for his birthday and neither one is worth a hill of beans. Find something else to waste $10-$12 on!

this dog is just awful. he does nothing. i think he is supposed to move because, when he is up in the air his wheels turn. as soon as u put him down the wheels stop moving but make a horrible noise. it doesn't matter what surface u put it on, it still doesn't move. i would give zero stars in all catagories but it won't let me. basically a waste of perfectly good batteries. we got it as a gift.
