Cute addition. 4
Pokemon toy is actually larger than what I would expected for being only 5 inches... On its head is a thin, small loop of string where one could hang it as a ceiling decoration, or otherwise. If you don't like the string, simply cut it. It's all one string, so it all comes out with a simple snip (though it will leave nearly unnoticable small holes where you cut the string... that look kind of like spider bite marks, heh). I don't find them bothersome, though.

This particular Darkrai doesn't have any legs/appendages, which was fine by me. However, its underside has a certain flat "stool" so that the Darkrai can stand up. The edges of its body (the "skirt") hide this stool, so it is undetectable upon first glance (such as the picture given for this Pokemon above).

Overall, though, a very nice buy (though a tad pricey). Recommended for any Pokemon fan, from the casual to the hardcore.

Happy Pokemon Fan 4
This was a Christmas gift for my son. He's a huge Pokemon fan and absolutely loved it. Especially because it was from Japan, and it is one of the more unusual Pokemon stuffed characters. It's a great piece in his collection.

Design Flaw Poor Seam 2
As many others have stated...the seam near the hose attatchment will rip even with very careful usage.
The first time we used the slide all 8 kids had a blast HOWEVER we never did set up the "tunnel" part because it kept falling over and we never bothered with the "ramp" part either. Tried the ramp but it was too hard even for the 8 year olds to get up over it because of how far you have to run to jump onto it is a bit unsafe too running that much on the water.
We went back to just the regular simple slide and they had just as much if not more fun on that one.

Aqua Jump Slide 4
My 8 year old son loves this slide. He has been the only child to play on it and like the other reviewers have stated, it would probably work best if placed on a down-hill slant instead of on a flat surface. He never made it past the jump into the pool.

Everything worked the first time we set it up and my son played for hours.

Take-down is a bit of a hassle but the enjoyment my son gets from it is well worth it!

For the price, it's a bargain!

This toy is did not last passed the first usage. 2
I ordered the Aqua Jump Slide and the Wave Racer Slide. My grandkids had fun with the slides but on the second time using them the seam where the slide is hooked to the hose busted on the Aqua Jump Slide. I was very disappointed because we only got one usage out of it.

Fun but not durable 2
We purchased the slide even after reading the reviews about seams popping. We thought we would just be careful. The seams holding the tube the water flows into are not strong enough and we too popped the seams the very first day. We have gorilla taped the whole seam but the water makes its way through that too.

Not so happy 2
This slip n slide came out of the box with a hole in it! We fixed it but the patch didn't work all that well. The kids were still able to use it and they liked it, but it didn't work the best because of the hole. The ramp didn't work that well either. Overall not very satisfied. It gave the kids some fun but it could have been better!

Great letter teacher, phonics, etc. lots of fun 5
My grand daughter loves this and Running on Zero, one for letter skills, the other for math. Both are fun, and teach the child. They challenge your child to try harder, for a better score, even though there's no grading involved (the way it should be)

Letterpillar - doesn't stack up to other Leapster games 2
While my 3 yr old and 5 yr old play this game some, it doesn't compare to the other cartridges we own. There is only one game on the cartridge. It is simple, and I'm not convinced it has much educational value, as do most of the other Leapster games we have. I recommend you buy the Draw & Write or the Letter Factory. My children fight / "take turns" over those two games and they are educational.

Great Beginner Game 4
My son received the Leapster system for his 4th birthday as a gift. It comes with this game. While this game isn't the most challenging, my son enjoys it. I am not sure at what level the previous reviewers children are at, but my son doing very well at school. Maybe they are academically beyond him. He knows all of his letters, their sounds, and can read three letter words. He can also write out all of the letters in the alphabet, uppper and lower. So while this game isn't extremely challenging, he still found it fun. I haven't found controlling the letterpillar to be difficult at all, as a previous reviewer said. The arrow buttons on the control respond fine when controlling the letterpillar. I think this game was great as a "free" game with the system, because it allowed him to get used to using the controller. And my son isn't electronically deprived. He uses our personal computer all of the time to play games. He also has a V-Smile with other games. We wanted this as a portable gaming system. Again, it was a good first, free game. I have nothing bad to say about it considering I didn't have to pay for it.

Very dissapointing 1
We bought this game for our 3 and 5 year old - they do not like it at all! It is a very boring game and difficult to maneuver the caterpillars - don't waste your money!!! It kept their attention for about 5 minutes and then they moved on. They love the SpiderMan, Nemo, and Disney Princess cartridges the best!

The most boring Leapster game yet. 1
I bought my [...] daughter this game yesterday, she played it for 2 minutes and hated it. I played it for 5 minutes and now understand why she didn't like it. There is only one game on the cartridge- you pick one of three letterpillar faces and then you are supposed to use the arrow pad to guide the creature to eat letters. Level one has 1 capital letter and 1 number on the screen, if you eat the number the letterpillar gets sick and it tells you to eat the letter. Once you eat the letter, another one appears, and so on. If you run into the wall or a brick, the creature dies and after the creature dies three times, your game is over. We have the Kindergarten cartridge and the Disney Princess Cartridge and both of those have multiple games on each one and are so much more interesting to play. Don't waste your money on this one!

Customer reviews

So fun, however... 5
I absolutely LOVE this game. I love the fast-paced hilarity that it creates. However, why don't they make refill cards? It's not quite as fun when I play with someone who's never played before, and I know the answer right away because it's a repeat. While 1200 puzzles is a lot, I would like to buy some more if they were available.

It doesn't pay to be a visual person 4
Mad Gab is a very fun and creative game. It's a team game whereby the team reads the totally random put together words and tries to guess what is really being said. For example: "New Disc Hollow Knee" answer: "Nudist Colony". It is great to watch as people clamor for the correct phrase or name, and as the card holder hears it he/she can't understand why the team isn't guessing it when they sound like they are saying it correctly. If you are an audio person you will have a field day, but if you are a visual person, you will have fits.

BEST GAME EVER 5
Great, great fun, and lots of laughter! We play this game every summer on our camping trip with 4 to 20 players, ages 7 to 60. The only problem that we have with this game is that we have gone through all the cards at least 3 times and need a 2nd edition!!!

If you are looking for fun for all, look no farther!!!

Good Brain Excercise 5
If you like word games and figuring out puzzles, then you will enjoy this game. It takes a bit of logic and a good grasp of popular sayings to figure out. Also, must not be ashamed of sounding insane when mouthing off phonetically. If on the other hand, you do not like word games and are not familiar with idioms, then you will not enjoy the game. As an educational toy, I believe it is a good exercise for the brain and for honing listening skills. Again, this game is truly for people who enjoy word puzzles, all others probably best to steer away.

stew pid gay meh may kiss nose hense in lassy our drawn cuh 2
in case you are wondering or are stuck on this example i made up from this game, it says "stupid game makes no sense unless you're drunk". that says it all. this game is rather stupid and annoying unless you are really plastered drunk, but then again, what kind of exapmle does that send to your children? "hey kids, if you drink lots of guiness you will have more fun!" i dont think so...though it would be a lot funnier, thats still out of the quetsion and beside the point. this is the perfect drinking game. one thing about this game that was really irrataing was the fact that the timer it came with was loud enough to shatter eardums within a 10 yard radius! utterly rediculus. do not try to follow the rules, i guerentee you wont understand, its much more fun if you just have a bunch of people and have one person try to figure out one of the stupid puzzels on the card [btw one side is SUPPOSED TO BE hard and the other easy...not the case...they are both equally stupid]. i do not recomend this game. it had a great commercial, but it gets really old in about 5 minutes unless alcohol is involved.

Playtime more thrilling 5
With this the play time with the Bakugans will be alot more entertaining.
Friends will enjoy it alot more.

The Battle Arena: Get Ready for Battle 5
Do you really need a Bakugan Battle Arena? Not necessarily. You can play on a coffee table with books bordering the four sides to prevent the figures from rolling off. Is it more fun to play when you have one? Yes. The bumpers are solid and the surface is uniform.

This is a 9 piece table that is easy to assemble 2 bumpers on each side that snap in, while the table folds out. At the far corners are the openings to shoot your Bakugan figures. The bumpers keep the marbles in play, instead of rolling off of the table to be devoured by an overzealous pet (such as my dog, for example).

You set your Gate cards away from you. The youngest player shoots first and then each player takes turns shooting their figures. Instructions on how to play are included with the Arena (in English and French - Impressive).

SETUP:
Take about 1 minute or less. Takedown is easier.

NOTATIONS:

NO BAKUGAN FIGURES ACCOMPANY THIS TOY. You will need a Battle Brawlers Pack or Starter Pack to play on this arena. Do not just give the Arena unless your prospective 'player' has the figures.

COST:

It costs $30 retail but can be purchased from Amazon for a lot less and you can get free shipping.

VERDICT:

Two thumbs up on the arena. It really does add to the ambiance of gameplay.

Minnie's treasure 3
I purchased this toy for my Grandson. When he saw this toy advertised he told me he'd "Been wanting this All his life". He's only six, but I guess when your that age it seems like a long time. He thoroughly enjoys setting up the battleground and playing the game. Even though he is young he understands the action and he and his friends have a great time playing when the weather is not conducive to outdoor play.

destined for a garage sale 3
This is not a bad product, but my 7 year old son has one and rarely uses it. Bakugan is the kind of game that you can just whip out and play on a table or the floor, the plastic arena is not needed. Just think about how many more Bakugan you could buy for the price of the arena!

The kids love it! 4
Great toy, the kids love it! The price is worth it, very easy to put together and take apart.
