Wonder Workshop Build Brick Extensions

If you have a kid that you are trying to get interested in programming, then Dash is a good buy. If you have a really spirited (crazy), mischievous (trouble-making), good-humored child that loves to do things like: Hide then jump out and scare you when you are holding hot drinks, Use whoopie cushions so frequently and violently that they break almost instantly, Use nerf guns for guerrilla warfare with a neighborhood gang of 6-8 year olds and sneak attack unsuspecting people, then they will love this. He can program Dash to sneak up on you, throw balls at you, then make Dash say something strange and then do a little dance. They are only ping pong balls so if they get lost under a giant sectional couch that seems to be a black hole of cat toys and lego pieces, you can easily replace them with more. Honestly, it really is a fun addition to the robot. I love watching him use it and laugh, and then call in another gang member to play with it instead of nerf guns, beyblades, or Minecraft, which seems to be the only things they think of doing these days otherwise.

Gift receiver was very excited to try out . Launcher was gift most wanted out of robot selections. Nice quality. Not only fun but educational toy .

On my 10 yr. old grandson's "wish list" for Christmas. As I have heard no complaints, I am expecting everything is fine.

Works as intended but Dash can't throw anything heavier than a ping pong ball. We use it to launch treats at our dog, but we were hoping he could play fetch with a tennis ball. Dash just doesn't have the power to throw the larger ball, but otherwise this is fun. Hard to aim and get the angles right, but that's part of the fun.

I got this for my niece for her bday and it was the first toy she played with after everyone left. Huge hit and her parents love it too!

It took some adjusting to get it to launch correctly. The first try was a failure as it launched backwards. Instructions would help.

Don't understand the positive reviews. Complete and EPIC fail of a Christmas gift. Dash is great but the launcher doesn't do anything. Maybe it's defective. Maybe Dash is. But when the robot executes the "launch" action the attachment that's supposed to flip the lever just lightly taps the lever. Nothing more than a jiggle for the ball in the launcher. My kids were SO excited as this was "the absolute best accessory we can get" and after an hour of Christmas morning frustration have given up and moved on to other gifts. Way to fail Wonder Workshop! UPDATE: After much effort, the launcher is now working. I will leave the original review in place for reference. My rating has been raised from 1 star to 3. I would only raise it to 2 stars, but my son does enjoy the limited functionality of it so we give it a "3". Even though we have managed to get the launcher to work, it still falls far short of advertised expectations and there remain several problems with this item: 1) Directions are not clear. Why do manufacturers refuse to use words and insist on using cartoonish drawings that don't look anything like the product they're supposed to be describing? A few words would go a LOOOONG way towards facilitating the setup. 2) The setup is quite "finicky". The connectors must be VERY FORCIBLY pushed into Dash's "ears". This requires so much force that it feels like one is about to break the toy. Furthermore, they must be aligned _just right_ in order to make that forced connection. 3) Even when you get the launcher attached to Dash, it must be in EXACTLY the single orientation that will allow it to work. Thus, it may require a couple of tries to get it connected correctly. 4) Once you survive the painful connection process, you have to deal with the inconsistent and fussy behavior of the launcher itself! a) There are two holders that supposedly let you hold extra balls that Dash can use to reload his catapult. However, the catapult design is faulty and these extra balls will not load. The problem is that after Dash launches the first ball, his head doesn't return to its original location and it keeps the catapult elevated. Thus when you attempt to "reload", the catapult is not where it should be and causes the "reloaded ball" to be knocked off. Thus, despite the claim of being able program the robot to launch three balls in a program, you can only really do a single ball and must manually load the launcher. b) The programming for the launcher allows you to "adjust" the launcher power. However, anything less than 80% of max power will not even get the ball off the launcher. We don't really understand the point of this feature unless it's to frustrate young kids.

The build was very challenging but worth it! My daughter loves it!

Dash is a great toy and this is one of the better accessories available

Tenemos los robots educativos Dash and Dot desde hace 6 meses y, sin ninguna duda, éste es el accesorio que más ha gustado de todos los disponibles. Se trata de una catapulta que acciona Dash mediante los movimientos de su cabeza. Se puede controlar de forma totalmente manual o mediante la aplicación Wonder que incluye acciones pregrabadas para recargar y lanzar los proyectiles. El único inconveniente es su elevado precio. Ni los materiales ni el accesorio en sí justifican un precio tan alto. Decepciona recibir una cajita de 18x12x8cm. aunque insisto que, puestos a comparar con el resto de accesorios de estos robots, este es el mejor y con el que más van a jugar, sin duda.

Regalo a mis nietos

La calidad del productoes muy buena pero el precio.....

L'accessorio integra il fantastico Dash e aumenta le possibilità di divertirsi con nuove funzionalità programmabili. I bambini hanno trovato estremamente semplice montaggio ed utilizzo, il sistema è robusto e ben progettato. Il venditore ottimo, pacchetto perfettamente sigillato ed arrivato in tempi molto brevi.
