Personally I like the off-button and the chance to play him in different volumes (from - quiet - medium - loud). Turned it appears highly talkative, what children and parents find great exhausting. With us he is only "Master". He is robust and has now been a few months behind them, without having to see it. From our practice: all the boys 1-6 feel it addressed, really play it can be but only after 3 or 4 years. This one can be used as Dino or aircraft act and is also regularly taken back into their own hands.
