i bought iz for my son, and its functionality went far beyond my expectations. every one of its features work great, from ipod playback to musical creation. the toy is extremely well designed, and is easy for anyone to use. my son wants a second to create even more intricate musical loops. id recommend iz to anyone

IZ has to be one of the _*best*_ toys out there. I have to admit, all it does is bob it's eyes for dancing, but the lights are awesome effects.
I especially enjoyed the "sound creation" mode. You could create different remixes and loops for all your favorite songs. I was especiialy proud of this and created tons of remixes...
When i first got this I was bummed because i ddin't have an mp3 or an ipod. But it actually did work with my CD player!

I really think you should get this.

It takes a little while to get used to the strange controls, but after 20 minutes study and creation, I gathered mum and dad, turned off the lights and showed them a remix worthy of a DJ. 5 stars!

I got iz for my kids for Christmas but we (ok I) couldn't wait. This toy sure knows how to keep you entertained! My kids play this little guy nonstop! They love the fact you can you constantly change the music by turning his ears in different directions and pushing his center tummy button. My son got Iz to make is crazy backbeat sound effect that had us cracking up! Now we keep feeding Iz different music from our CD player just to see what he will do next.

The best!! I brought this toy to my field hocky game, plugged in my iPod, and everyone went crazy! They should make them in school colors.

Iz is pure magic out of the box. I can't believe how cool this toy is. It does so much. You can play games with him, use him to mix a ton of different sound effects and music he has included PLUS you can connect him to an ipod or any outside music source to have him play your favorite music. While your music is playing Iz will add his own personal style to it. What a great toy.

Bought this toy for my little sister, and she is still waiting on it because I have not put it down yet! Ordered and received iZ within 24 hours of purchase even though some HUGE online retailers are already sold out. iZ becomes a 3-D tool for listening and creating music. Easy enough for a 6 year old, but entertaining enough for this 19 year old as well. Very solid purchase. Def. going to be the must have holiday toy.

This is a toy, a learning tool/toy, a fun diversion for ALL ages! Not only do *I* love it and can't seem to leave it alone (I am 48) but also several of the younger set in my life love it. I am ordering several for holiday gifts and birthday, for older and younger, in my life. I feel joy and have laughed out loud at the antics of iZ. I've also spent many hours now just making music with it. Using it with my MP3 player is also fun and just adds to the capability of iZ. I honestly am surprised at the low price of the iZ considering how it is made and its seemingly endless surprises. It's easy to use, built surprisingly sturdy, well priced, and I highly recommend it to anyone. If you're thinking of getting this for the holidays I'd say get it NOW as I feel it will be hard to find soon.

Yes, I fell for the marketing. I saw it spotlighted during the Christmas season and I thought why not. Well before you make the same mistake let me tell you how incredibly annoying this toy is. It is loud, frustrating and has no obvious on/off switch. Therefore my kids refuse to have it in their rooms because it will unexpectatedly go off in the middle of the night. It will play your ipod or simaler mp3 player but it adds so much noise that it really isn't worth it. It does not dance like it was advertised to do. In fact it will hardly stay in the position that it is pictured in. I will say that this was a complete waste of money and is about to be donated.

I'm a 6 year old and I like IZ. I like it because it's cool looking and it has cool colors. I like to play with it by making sounds and tickling it. My favorite thing that it does is that I can make it stand on one foot while it is playing the music. One of the songs I call the Iz song, the one that is like a funny ah ah ah ah ahhh ah ahhh song.

Well, I thought this toy was a cool concept so I bought 3 to give as Christmas gifts this year (for a 7 year old, 10 year old and 13 year old). I played with it to make sure it was living up to the reviews and I'm going to return them all. It's cute but I just don't think it's worth the money. You can make it play funky sounds but I can't see it holding a kids attention for that long. I plugged it into my ipod and was expecting that to be the greatest part (I thought it was going to dance) but it basically functioned as speakers and it's eyes bobbed up and down. Funny for a minute.
