I am not sure. I bought it for my nephew for Christmas. Sorry I couldn't help.

Ha! Yes... It does. But we have the opposite problem... This one doesn't attach at all to the figures hand. There is a $20 version I would look into if I were you...one that makes sounds as well.

I am having problems, too. Call Hasbro! They no longer offer Alphie (no longer manufactured) but they will send you a toy free. We got Elmo rocks. :) And it came very quickly. I am still bummed about Alphie bc my son LOVED it! We plan to take it appart and use an air gun (those canned air that you use on electronics) and maybe even use erasers (those work great at dusting batteries/electronics)...and hopefully that will help make him work again.

No this one is more like a frisbee but a little bigger. I did buy one that was larger & had a strap. Captain America Marvel Super Soldier Gear Stealth Fire Shield Toy by Captain America Price 14.99. Bought it in 2013.

These finger sleeves come off extremely easily. No, I would definitely not recommend for a toddler. They may cause choking.

I tried like crazy to get my little guy to latch. I had to use the shield to even make it work. I would try to pump and then get him to latch, and no such luck. I was never able to wean him off it. :( it only lasted three months though I ended up drying up, I don't think it was caused by the shield. I also found that the Medela therashells helped draw mine out some, wear them between feedings they also helped lots! Good luck!

I know my hand is much bigger but I just went and tried closing it with my hand in it. It didn't close and wasn't hurting. My 22 month old grandson hasn't gotten hurt playing with it. He got it for Christmas last year.

I wouldn't describe it as a toy and besides, it's pretty expensive. I hesitated a lot before buying it, and only gave in because my youngest (4 years old) copies his big brother in everything and I didn't want him feeling left out. It was a pleasant surprise for me that, after several months of play, Superman is still in one piece.So I'm inclined to say that probably a 2.5-year-old could play with it too, but not if the child still puts things in his mouth. In that case i'd suggest putting it off for a little while or writing to the company to inquire about the chemical composition of the model and its paint. Hope this helped.

Good question, I'm not sure about that. :/ I bet if you googled it you could find an answer somewhere. My son just turned five yesterday, so the tag is worn pretty badly. He's had it since birth!

Dear Jared, I have watched almost every single episode of Caillou (more then 250...) and I don't know where you got the idea that he is a failure as a child....I don't se thing in that way. For me, Caillou is a imaginative, curiouse, friendly, respectful child, with a lot of good values. It is far from failure, and much more close to the what I imagine to be a "perfect child". So, if you buy or not this doll, you son's life will be the same. Spend some quality time with him, give him good values and lots of love. That will make a difference.

My sister has had this since last Xmas 2013 & I just got it for my youngest son. It still worked great when he played with the game. After a year & still looks new. He loved it so much. I had to get his own set for Xmas. I did get extra darts too. For both boys to play with. Hope this helps!!

i couldn't tell you that. Mine never popped off. And both me and my son are pretty rough with it. Maybe you got a defective one because they're not supposed to come off.

I watched my grandsons play and this was never a problem. I will email your question to them and see what they say!

Did you ever find an answer to this?? Have you bought one? I was looking to buy the new one and have gotten two OLD ones (one from amazon, one from barnes and noble). I was going to return both in my quest for the new one but upon reading reviews... it seems the old one will accomadate matchbox cars better... but the elevator is more prone to break. I like the overall look of the new one - but I don't like that the elevator is smaller. I really don't like the idea that matchbox cars might not fit. I am going to call plan toys today and see if they can tell me. All I know is this was supposed to be the BIG christmas gift for my twins this year and now it's 2 days before Christmas and I have run into a problem I didn't expect to have.

"cosplaying" ?? If you mean kids playing, absolutely not. They are heavy metal and would hurt someone. Really cool though if you are looking for an adult costume compliment. I wore them for the whole party (kids theme birthday party). I ended up using clothing adhesive tape (the kind used to keep clothes in place in certain places) to keep them on. Otherwise they would have flown off when I was acting out my part. My cat was part of an Avenger style team who was a shape-shifter and really the bad guy :-) Lots of swiping with claws and the adhesive worked great!! The tape that comes with them does not keep them on. "cosplaying" ?? If you mean kids playing, absolutely not. They are heavy metal and would hurt someone.

No, it doesn't come with the shield. It says in the description that it doesn't come with the shield or red socks, (personally I don't think they should be allowed to have them in the picture), but it is still a good costume and the shield isn't very much to buy separately.

I just read your concern about Sophie being a choking hazard. I haven't taken the time to review all of the feedback on Sophie, but you have to take several things into account. You state that one reviewer found their child choking on Sophie's leg when they "walked into the room". Where were they and why was their infant left alone? The key to being a good parent is to supervise your child. Watch how they interact with their toys. There are many toys on the market for children under 3 that could become choking hazards under the right conditions. If you are leaving your child alone AT ALL they could quickly choke on something as benign as a blanket. My child has owned Sophie for 3 years now and I wouldn't even hesitate to buy her again. He began playing with her at 3 months of age. You have to take all of the ratings with a grain of salt......not everyone is the same type of parent. You can't shift the blame to the toy if you are not supervising your child to begin with.

I bought this item for my son and have not seen the items myself. My son has not complained and he uses then all the time as he plays regularly. Sorry I can not be more spesific. For value, it is a good buy.
