Good idea but not so great
I thought it was so cute for my daughter but after I took it out the package it was horrible. I just couldn't figure out how to put it together. My youngest thought it was a chew toy for him. My daughter wasn't that impressed with it, she thought it was really cute but didn't like it.
Beware or your pet will be limbless
This pet comes wrapped in a cute package which shows how you "untwist" the legs and you can wear your pet just like a necklace. But once you unwrap this toy you see how easily it is for the pieces to be lost. The paws connect by a barrel style snap which means they are very easy to unsnap and for the paws to be lost. It would be nice if there was a safety cord that would still keep it together even if it became unsnapped.
On the front paws there is a TINY TINY rubber band that keeps the animal from being untwisted to the full length. If you find that your pet is not fully untwisted check for that tiny rubber band. The twisting reminds me very much of a balloon animal. You put the paws together and twist them and then push them up into the body. Your child will be really good at making balloon dogs after twisting this pet!
Beware that playing with it all twisted together is rather hard because the head does not have alot of stuffing to be held up straight. It is rather floppy which makes the play aspect frustrating for small kids when the animal is straightened out.
It is not a toy I would give to a small child. To easy to unsnap and lose the body parts and the unsupported head means it does not play well as a toy. For older kids to wear as a scarf would be a fun accessory to add to your outfit. A fashionista would love this item!
Not a favorite
While my daughter was very excited to receive the twisty pets cat, it quickly became a hassle. The cat comes apart so you can wear it. But the problem is that it comes apart all of the time. It kind of just twists together so when it comes untwisted it just falls apart. It’s a cute idea that maybe just isn’t executed the best. We are very grateful to have been given the opportunity to try it though
Very confusing
It took us about an hour to figure out how to take this thing apart to wear around your neck. It was very confusing and the directions didn't help at all. We haven't attempted to put it back together yet. My girls thought the unicorn was cute, and that it was funny to watch its legs fall off and then snap back together. Overall, I don't think this toy will be played with much. It was kind of a disappointment, because it looked really cute in the package. But who really wants to wear an animal as a scarf with all kinds of odd legs all around. It just looks strange to me. My girls though it was silly.
Could be better
I got this free for my honest review. First of all the idea is cute but the outcome is terrible. My daughter was so excited qhen she got it. But once out of fhe box it was downhill from there. The animal itself looks creepy and then she unconnected the feet it fell to pieces. It is not easy to put back together and the tail falls of constantly. If they could find a better way to execute the design it would be worth it. But to me it is a stuffed nightmare.
