My daughter is into anything having to do with robotics so when I saw the Robo Alive from ZURU I knew it would be a perfect gift for her. I was even more excited about them when I received a Lurking Lizard Robo Alive to review and include in our Holiday Gift Guide this year! They are for ages 3 and up and super affordable at $14.99 each! This toy is so cool and my daughter just adores it! It has quickly become one of her favorite toys and has provided hours upon hours of entertainment for our whole family. The Lurking Lizard we received is red and black, with yellow spots on its back but it comes in blue and green as well. It has realistic looking eyes and tilts its head just like a real lizard. It also is very amusing when it runs around the house looking like a real lizard. It is super cute and cracks me up. It does take two AA batteries to work and they are not included but the batteries last quite a while. We have been playing with my daughters Lurking Lizard Robo Alive every single day for over a month and have yet to change the batteries which is super nice! The Robo Alive Lurking Lizard has a motion sensor in its neck that makes it move and stop moving when the sensor is blocked. It also has a soft rubber head and tail that make it feel a bit more realistic than the hard body and legs. This is a great toy to keep your kids entertained and spark their imagination. The robotic technology they use to make the real life motions are pretty neat and I really have enjoyed having the Robo Alive Lurking Lizard toy. If you are looking for an entertaining toy this Holiday Season, then I highly recommend the Robo Alive toys by ZURU.
Disclosure: I received this product for free, in exchange for my honest review, which may differ from yours. Regardless, I only recommend products and services I used personally, and believe will be a good fit for consumers.
