VERY COOL TOY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was really excited about this toy. when I got it I decided to test it out.it was great!everything worked VERY WELL!

Calling all spies!!!!!
Calling all spies! The Micro spy kit is really cool! The NIGHTSPYER mini-scope is great for snooping around in the dark. The voice scrambler is excellent for passing top- secret messages. The spy motion alarm is great for keeping secure areas secure, and the spy micro listener is great for listening in on secret conversations and picking up top-secret info. Anyway, on to the REVIEW. My favorite part of this kit is the NIGHTSPYER mini-scope because it's small, yet it's good for taking a closer look in the middle of the night. This toy is really cool! Buy it!!!

P.S. If it's too bright to use your NIGHTSPYER, you can go on a mission on [postopia website] . Look for the game called "Night Spy Mission" and go on a 4-level adventure for late night snacks. And look at the directions!!!

I love this toy!
This toy is really fun. My favorite attachment is the voice scrambler. My ten-year-old sister likes to use the Micro Listener. My eleven-year-old sister likes the Voice Scrambler, too. You should get this toy.

Spy Micro Kit
This toy is great! The NIGHT SPYER really works well. It can see in even the darkest places. The detector is nice and sensetive [and loud....], and it sounds even when there is a little bit of light. The voice changer lowers your voice, but besides that, it works great. The listener is the best thing in the micro kit. You can hear voices from REALLY far away, and through walls. The durability of this toy is ......ok, but it won't last long if stepped on or dropped. The educational value is bad because there is nothing educational. But it is SO MUCH FUN! Buy this toy! You won't be dissapointed!

A spy's best gadgets
Spy Micro kit is awesome!!! The Detector is great and sensitive, The night spyer is good for magnifying and seeing in the dark, the voice changer didn't really work but I still liked it, and the listener really worked! The only bad thing is that the voice changer lowers the volume of your voice and most of what you hear with the listener is backround noises but you can still hear better. I defenitly reccommend this item!! ... Read more

Teacher Review

This spy pen set will please young secret agent wannabes with its sleeksilver design and multiple functions that transform a working pen into alight-activated motion alarm, a flashlight, or a magnifying glass with bothlong-distance and close-up magnification lenses. The set includes a sturdy, silverplastic case to hold all the different components, including the large pen thatslides into the side of the case. The end of the pen unlocks the storage case,providing another secret function that kids will like. The pen's motion alarm isits best feature, with a nonthreatening beeping sound that won't be too loud forthe parents or younger siblings. A clearly written instruction sheet explainsall the secret spy functions, augmented with diagrams that will help even thenonmechanical parent outfitting a junior spy. Two AAA batteries are required(not included). --Marcie Bovetz, mother and former children's librarian ... Read more

FUN(...)!
THIS IS SO(...) FUN!(...) WHEN I AM SO CALLED "SLEEPING" (THATS WHAT PARENTS THINK I AM DOING). I AM ACTUALY STAYING UP ALL NIGHT WRITING OR DOING SOMETHING FUN!(...) WHEN I AM DOING SOMETHING I AM NOT SUPOSE TO DO, I PUT THE MOTION DETECTOR DOWNSTAIRS WHERE THE STAIRS ARE. (F.Y.I. MY ROOM IS UPSTAIRS).SO WHEN I HEAR THE beep,beep,beep. I'LL KNOW THAT SOMEONE IS COMING SO I HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO HIDE WHATEVER I AM DOING AWAY.

THE BEST SPY TOY EVER
It is a great toy .you can eisley slip it into your pocket and you can eisley replace the battaries. it has a wonderful telescope and comes with extra ink.it has a flashlightthat works wonderful. I think you should buy it because THIS IS THE BEST SPY TOY EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

great in the begining
i wanted it so badley, so i bought it. it was great, but i got tired of it. now i don't know where it is!!!

spy pen
I love this spy pen because it is so handy! Though there is a flaw or two! the first flaw is thatthe battery instuctions say they should be facing negitive, when they should be positive. and the motion sensor is annoying and goes of for every little movement and is LOUD! the good things are the light, the night light extender that looks like a cane, and the backup refill ink stick! the box is very handy because it has a special compartment for each piece (including the ink). the down side to the box is that it says it locks with the general ending of the pen, but when you think you locked it, it flips open. i really recommend this toy but not to anyone who expects perfection out of everthing

I Love spy pen
I like my spy pen a lot.it is a lot of fun.I like going and puting on the things it had.If there was a contest for the best toy and I was finding the best one I think I would pick the spy pen.All I am saying is I like it a lot! ... Read more

Editorial Review

This handy blue briefcase (cunningly labeled "Spy Kit") contains every tool a budding agent needs to root out any secret. The most vital piece of equipment is a listening device that amplifies distant sounds, perfect for eavesdropping on the enemy! Simply plug in the earphones, unfold the microphone, and point it at your target. Press the button, and you can hear every whisper. The kit also includes a penlight (requires two AAA batteries), and a combination telescope/microscope that can be attached to the listening device for more advanced espionage activities. Agents can keep track of everything they see and hear in the included notebook. The listening device requires one 9-volt battery and you'll need a screwdriver to open the battery compartment, but once everything is set up you'll be ready for action.

For pint-sized spies everywhere...
My son loves this toy! My husband and I thought that for what you get, its a bit pricey, but my in-laws bought it for our son this Christmas. It's pretty neat. The listening device works well. The microscope doubles as a telescope (you just look in the opposite end for each tool.) The whole thing snaps together into one cool looking spy instrument.

My second favorite!
I got this toy and it is so cool!

The listener works really well and has been dropped a 100 times but it never broke.

The light is cool because if you aren't alowd to be up or in a place your not supposed to be you can go there.

The microscope is tiny so no one knows what it is ( unless you tell them) at all which is cool.

The note pad is I think edible so try it.

The pencil is gold so that you can see it more cleary.

All in all, get this now!

Really works
The microphone works suprisingly well, and I didn't encounter any quality problems the other reviewers commented on.

In fact, this is the one toy my 8-year-old son played with the most after Christmas.

can you call this good?
it is not good.it is the badest toy i ever layed my hands on and a am not lying it is bad bad bad

Great SPY toy
This toy reall does work. There is a spy listner inside and it does help you hear sounds from far away. Also it has a flash light and a tiny looking glass.Along with that there is a note book to write down what you hear and it all fits into a little spy case. My brother, cousins, and i all played "spys" with it. My brother and i also spyed on our neighbor, but he cought us. It's a lot of fun to play with.

Editorial Review

Set up three secret spy trackers, draw a map on your control panel showing where each one is, and you will know where and when intruders (e.g., little sisters or parents) have entered the secured zone. That is the idea of the Spy Tracker System, and for the most part it works as advertised. The trackers are easily set up, an erasable marker is included to draw a diagram of each sensor’s location, and the alarm can be set go off out loud or silently. The only real weak point is that the sensors don’t always transmit through walls. Requires eight AAA batteries (included).--David Stoesz ... Read more

dont buy this
iv gotn a lot of spy stuff but this i STUPID i mean that in the werst imaginable way. AND IT DOES NOT WORK THRU WALLS. this thing is junk

Ok toy
My son is reall yin to spying so i thought this woould be perferct. It is pretty cool except half the times, it doesnt work. Also the lid where you pu t the battery doesn't close. This is fairly good toy, but it could have been better.

GET THIS TOY!!!!!!!!!!
this is the best out of all you will not be sorry if you by this toy! it works very well. the only problem is that there has to be light out.ohter than that it is a very good toy.

very fun and sneaky
the spy tracking system is very sneeky.i love it a lot but the problem is you have 2 turn on and off all of the sensors,i hide them all around my house and at my bed time i close my door and play but if one of the sensors go off that is near my room i run into my bed. ill promise u will love this toy.

Complaint about Wild Planet
This is a horrible toy!!! The day I bought it I had fun with it for about 30min. but then it broke! This is a review for all of Wild Planet's toys. DO NOT BUY THEM! They may be fun for one day or so, but then they begin to fall apart! THe night vision goggles, they are a green pair of sunglasses and a light on it. You cant even see in the dark! The Lie Detector Watch, give me a break! The only thing that does is give a "True" answer almost every time it's False! The waterball launcher goes like 10 feet and that's it! It's also impossible to use! You can always tell if a toy is bad if you see that it has been marked down MULTIPLE times. DO NOT WASTE YOURE MONEY ON WILD PLANNET! THEY ARE A WASTE OF TIME AND ENERGY!!! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Items like these "spy vision" goggles are immensely popular, in part because kids expect the same results they see on the big screen or cartoons. The goggles look cool enough (which may be all that matters anyway) but don't expect much. The adjustable head strap is fashionably padded, with a techno-looking pack in the rear. The pack actually just holds batteries. The key feature, however, is the eye-catching, acid-green lens. They are useless for deflecting UV rays, exploring underwater, or--not so surprising--penetrating darkness. What penetrates the darkness are two small, small light bulbs, dressed up in nifty pop-out compartments on each side. The goggles, though, to their credit, make everything appear cool and eerie--including the wearer. That's fun even without real spy vision. Required: 4 "AAA" batteries.--Diane Beall ... Read more

These are crap
These are not worth the money. The battery must be FREQUENTLY replaced and they tint enerything green

spy vision goggles
The spy vision goggles work like a charm. Me and my friends are always playing with spygear and we even have our very own club with a website. It would be nice if you could e-mail me if there are any sales on spygear or if any new things come out.

Very cool toy!
My six year old received the spy goggles for Christmas and loves them. Not only does he feel like a "real spy," his goggles now double as a reading light at night. They are easy on, easy off and very durable - he has a raucous four year old brother! People often do a double take when we're in public since he hardly takes them off. If you have a spy kid in your family, we highly recommend. Also, these are very cool and not very expensive.

not what I had hoped for
I purchased this for my youngest grandson. He was excited when he opened them. Things like "cool" were said. He and his older brothers went out last night to "stealth" in the woods on my property. When he came in he said he couldn't see anything.

Not their best...
Our family (and friends) love the spy gear from Wild Planet. This one however has never been a big hit with any of the kids. They use it as an accessory more than anything. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Heads up, future spies of the world! Here is your first step on the road to super-spy status: the ultimate in high-tech secret communication. Two headset LCD displays and two mini keyboard transmitters (with adjustable wrist straps) allow users to send text messages up to 200 feet and through walls. Just put on the headset, aligning the eye piece so that you can see the tiny screen, type the message on the communicator keypad (up to 22 characters at once), send to your fellow agent, and wait for a reply. How will you know when a reply is coming? A red light will flash in the eyepiece and the message will scroll across your screen. Good-bye, walkie-talkies; hello, eye-link communicators!

Not enough enformation!
There was not enough information about the item. If i knew what an eye link comunicator was i might buy it. It sounds fun! but seeing as i dont know waht it does or what it is i will not buy.
Thank you,
Cori

Eye Link Communicater
I just purchased the Eye Link Communicater last week and it was very fun for me and my friend to use. Although it may hurt your head after a while, because of the headset, it still made us want to keep using them. I think that this prodct is great and that Wild Planet Toys should keep making great items.

Worth It
This toy is a lot of fun. But it doesn't transmit at 200 feet, as it is supposed to. The head piece is a bit too tight(...) . As a result, it can be difficult to see the screen because you can't adjust the angle fully. Even so, my 8 year old sister and I love playing with it. We're glad we bought it.

A great way to practice spelling and reading
I bought these for my son, who is seven, and they are pretty fun, but he is a tad too young for them. I'd say they are for kids 9+. They are very cool, however, and the head mounted display really works. They are also imminently hackable as a simple wearable pda/communicator. It'd be cool to find other uses for these. Anyway, I had to put ours up for auction.

the most popular toy ever
I think that this toy is so much fun to play with because you can tell other people what you think and it is a great way to conmunicate with someone if you are in danger and you need help.I can't wait untill I get to go and buy my EYE-LINK CONMMUNICATOR so me and my cousin can talk to each other while we are in two different places at the time and I think that it is never going to stop being the top toy that I like in the toy catorgory.Ilove to play with this toy very very much.Thank you for creating this toy who ever made and ceep up mthe great great work I love your toy so so much. ...

Very Weak
This toy i very weak.When I brought this Ithought It would be fun.When I got it home,i used it right away.When i used it there was many AM raidio interference and when I was 10 feet away from my partner I couldn't hear him.This is the worst Walkie Talkie ever!

Kids love it!
We didn't have the same problems as everyone else with our spy link communicators. My 6-year-old and her best friend rode up and down our street with them and had a blast! No interference with any radio signals experienced here. I love the fact that the kids don't have to push a button to talk, then let go to listen. With these walkie-talkies, the voice activation leaves the girls totally hands-free to ride their bikes or do whatever and they can still talk to each other. One friend lost her walkie talkie and we can't wait to get a replacement. Yesterday they played with them for hours! Now, if toy makers would only add the cordless phone finder feature to these toys so lost ones could be found easier, along with an automatic shutdown of battery power after five minutes of non-use...

Spy Link
Geuss what kids! There is a new spy toy in town and its called Spy Link. Spy Link lets you hear better on what is going on from far distancis. So go get yours today tomorrow the next day or in 5 years because it is never gonna be out of stock. Or maybe it will. I dont know and you dont know so get yours soon I meen if you want it but if yall dont then dont buy it lol.

another Wild Planet piece of junk
This is not the first Wild Planet item we purchased that was defective, but it will be the last. One of the earpieces is nonfunctional, and the reception on the other is terrible. Unfortunately, we lost the packaging and cannot return them for a refund.

If you purchase anything of the Wild Planet items, be sure to save the packaging and receipt, as you will most likely need to return it.

NO THANKS
Terrible reception. I can't hear my son even 20' away!! This is the third Wild Planet product I bought and the last. They are not quaility products! ... Read more

BEST TOY I EVER HAD!!!!!
This watch changed my life. It was given to me as a Christmas presebt, and I take it with me everywhere i go now. I dont know what i would do without my watch.

hunk of junk
the lie detector is a lier. it is a big thing to have on your wrist for a toy that doesn't work

DON'T BUY THIS
I got the watch for my birthday and i was excited because i thought it would be so much fun. Ha yeah right! It took me forever to make it work and when it did it always gave the same read out, and then it broke! This watch is a fake, and the only lie it will be telling is tat it doesn't really work!!!!

I bought it and thought it would be fun to use and it was a little useful because of the time in 24 different locations but the lie detector answered the same thing for every time i used it then the whole thing broke. this toy is incredibly stupied.

ATM safe bank
This toy isn't as great as i thought I thought it would be good for putting money in as a "SAFE" but it fell off my dresser and broke about a week later. My recemdation is not to buy it.

a great toy
this toy is fun but it sometimes couts wrong i just got it today (it is 06/17/04) and i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not worth the money!
I bought this for my son for his birthday because he needed a bank for his money. It didn't keep accurate count of his money right from the start. We followed the directions to reset the machine, but it would NEVER register the deposits or withdrawals accurately. We were very disappointed and are in the process of returning it. It is a great idea for an advanced sort of piggy bank, but they really need to work out the kinks!

Great but must learn these tricks from the beginning!
My daughter was very excited about this gift but we almost concluded it didn't work - it started out with a balance of $16.08 and we couldn't get it accept any withdraws. Finally we figured out the following and now we are 100% satisfied:
1. To re-set balance to $0, hold down keys 1,2, and 3 simultaneously for about 5 seconds. (This is near the end of the instruction sheet.)
2. You cannot deposit and withdraw consecutively. You have to take the card out and re-start after a deposit in order for any subtraction (withdraw) to be accepted. (We figured this out through trial and error. Otherwise it will look like the subtraction function doesn't work.

Great purchase
I bought this with my birthday money and it was on of my best envestments. It automatically keeps track of your coins and hen inputing/outputing bills all you mave to do is tell the teller how much you are putting in or taking out and it totally keeps track of how much money you put into it. You can have up to $999.99 in at a time. Even though i could probblably force it open with out the atm card, i still think it is verry cool and verry helpful to keep track of your mone. I would reccomend this for people ages 10 and up. Alst the directions are pretty streight forward unless you are stupid; or a retard. Definetely a great toy. Works great unless it is already broken when you bought it. So if it doesn't work when you get it, its not the product its your luck. ... Read more

disappointed
My 8 yr old received this gift for his birthday, it worked for the first 10 minutes, then the listening device would not close, which meant it would not turn off, we had to remove the battery.
My son was very frustrated and so were we.

SPY MASTER!
Hello everyone, I am 9 year old Spy Master 008! I have a spy master as long as I have been alive. I never was into the I Spy toys or books, it just wasn't fun. But then I fond something good, something that didn't break. It was all of the WildPlanet toys. And trust me I am a spy master becuase I have the: Spy: visson goggles (new), tracker system, eye links, camera, wrist cam, spy bug, micro kit, tool kit, wallet, And everything else. What I am meening to say is: WildPlanet is FunPlanet!

HAVE FUN !

GREAT
Good toy once you figure it out. You have to push in the slot on a angle and that`s about it. You can even hear another person on the phone from a another room.

GREAT TOY I LOVE IT

Good Toy
I needed to figure it out first but then it realy worked. It is durable and fun. You may hear a fint beep but thats normal.
Good toy.

I HATE TO SAY IT DOESN'T WORK
I like wild planet's spy gear alot but It just doesn't work.
You have to speak into the bug like a microphone before you can hear some one talking. And it doesn't come assembled. You have to push a certain tab into a slit and it just would not go in.
That's where it gets the durability stars. Me and my mom put all our weight on it but it still doesn't go into tha slot. Doesn't break either. I was really disappointed with this toy. ... Read more

Flip the little blue switch at the top of this cool swim mask and you'll be able to see underwaterin the dark, because this mask has built-in headlights! Imagine two tiny waterproof flashlights mounted onthe top of a swim mask, and you'd have the Aqua Light Swim Mask. It's made of hard yellow plastic withblue trim, it has a standard black nose cover and an adjustable strap to fit junior swimmers ages 6 to 10.The lights are powered by four AAA batteries (not included) to be contained in a horizontal compartmenton top of the mask. The lights in the center require two tiny light bulbs, which are included. Thesecomponents are kept waterproof through the use of O-ring seals. The Aqua Light Mask heightensunderwater visibility, and is a cool pool tool for swimming at night. --Marcie Bovetz ... Read more

we bought this for our trip to hawaii .the lights were useless
and the gogals were great for about 2 houres then the hole thing was useless wile they did work thought what i saw under the water was amasing but i would recomend a basick speedo pare they show you just as much and last for years (depending on the amount of use).

wonderful! we took them camping and saw all sorts of night creatures in the lake- eels, turtles and fish. great in the pool too!! I am buying a second set for one reason - very durable by kid standard, but--the dog took them out of service!!

A good gadget
If you want to get a good look at what's crawling around in your backyard at night, if you have a strong desire to play a prank on your older brother at midnight, or if you just want a way to get to the fridge without using that REALLY, REALLY noisy light switch, has Wild Planet got a toy for You!!!! The spy night scope is good for taking a closer look at things at night. It features magnificaton and a pop-up light. And for those covert missions, there is a green stealth light that dimms-down the total radius of the light beam(and it looks stealthy). I've had this for a while, and it only takes 2 AAA batteries. And for those of you who are REALLY into Spy Gear (like I am), check out the SPY MICRO KIT, the XP-4 SPY PEN, the XP-5 SPY WALLET, and the SPY BUG.

very cool
In disguise this toy is a flashlight. Though I think this toy is very cool. There is two different features of this toy. The night vision feature and the telescope feature. 2 AAA batteries are required but the bulb is included with this toy.

Fun toy for the spy in the house
Although this is a flashlight in disguise, our 10-year old boy was really excited to get it when grandpa came to visit. This toy looks impressive with its silver plastic case. While not a 'solid' feeling, it feels much better than the other Wild Planet night vision scope -- and unlike the other scope, it worked right out of the box once we added batteries. It has some cool features such as the way that the light pops out smoothly when the button is pressed gives it a 'wow' factor. We can't speak to durability yet as we've only had it for a week but for [money], it's probably good for about two months until it gets dropped somewhere.

almost perfect, not quite
This toy was really cool to use and all, but the "night vision" advertisment was fake. It's not really night vision (its too cheap to be anyway)just a light and tinted lenses. Very cool though.

I love this toy!
This toy is really cool; especially when spying on people. There binoculars that have like a light beam that makes it easy to see in the dark. You can spy on you're brother with his girlfriend or the person in front you while you're in the car. All I had to do was but 2 AAA bateries in and I had no hassle with it. It's really fun! ...

Thanks to a high-tech cyborg-inspired design, there is noreal secret to playing secret agent with Wild Planet's SpyCamera. But it will still thrill young espionage fans. Theincluded sunglasses (a must-have for spies) are impact-resistant,UV-protected, and have cool mirrored lenses. A tiny, manualadvance camera and an important-looking flip-down viewfinder bothattach to the glasses. Also included is a roll of Kodak 110 colorfilm (12 exposures). Pictures are snapped with a handheld squeezeshutter connected by an air tube to the camera. Subjects willdefinitely hear the camera click, but at least there's no flashto make it even more conspicuous. Parental assistance isrecommended while loading the film, which is best used outside ona sunny day. --Diane Beall ... Read more

Really, really neat toy!!!
This toy is really cool!! It is really easy to put together and then it works great. My only complaint is the film. It has only 12 exposers and the pictures are not to good. Also, for the poeple that want to know, the pictures are in a circle and have the words spy cam at the bottom.

Tip:
Put the cord that you take the picture with down your shirt and into a pocket so you hit your pocket and it takes a picture with out people knowing...

FUN...if you take it apart
First of all, this toy a bit too expensive for the tiny piece of the camera that resulted when I took the thing apart. I see many users are not having lots of fun with this particular toy, SO I suggest a little imagination. Start by unhooking the "tube" that leads to the pump from the camera. Have a parent or someone responsible unscrew the grey part of the camera. From here you can see the annoying Spy Cam border which can be removed. You should be left with a tiny box no bigger than your palm. To take pictures, all you have to do is press the tiny button next to the slider. Make sure after you take a picture (in bright atmospheres) to not wind the slider because it will accidently get pushed in your pocket. (This is from experience) Only wind until you want to take the next picture.
The pictures actually DO come out great if 1) There is good lighting, and 2)you have decently steady hands. Otherwise they come out gross. Without the Spy border, the pics came out considerably big, which is a plus.
Unfortunately, I lost my mini camera so im planning to get it off of someone's hands for a cheaper price.

Anyway, I hope this information helps.

For the "sunglasses", you can just give that to the neighbor kids.

Junk
I bought this for my child and he was so excited....until he tryed it out. He was try to spy on some of his friends and he could not take pictures because when he looked at the picture it was more far away and could not see anything. I said he could use it for normal pictures and he said it is embarrassing but he still used it for nomal pictures......it had been two weeks from when I got that and we went to a birthday party, kids were laughing and the glasses sliped of his face and broke. He was so sad. I think those glasses do look really embarrassing and dont work on spying.

Forgetaboutit.
OK, one of my friends bought this thing last year so I got a chance to mess around with it. The point of it is obviously to spy on people, which is one of my little hobbies, being a nosy person. :-) However, this camera will NOT help you spy on people, for the following reasons:

1. The "sunglasses" are not one-size-fits-all, so they'll look strange on just about anybody. Plus, they're not real sunglasses, just plastic. "Why on earth is this teenager walking down the street with plastic sunglasses that are way too small for him on on?"

2. The "small camera" is bigger than a lens on the sunglasses and sticks out from the camera like a sore thumb. As if there was any doubt that it's fro spying on people, it says "spy cam" in big letters on it. Nice. I know I wasn't expecting cameras straight out of James Bond movies, but come on, they can do better than this.

Also, the photos it takes are shown in a strange circle thing centered on the middle of the photo with the words "Spy Cam" (kind of like a gun sight.) Funny, as there's no sight on the camera. Let's hope the camera was centered on that person! (You need to be careful of this, as the camera takes a picture to the right of your head. So if you're right behind a person, move to the left and take the picture.

Now for the durability. The glasses are OK, I guess, for cheap plastic sunglasses. The trigger switch (bulky pump that goes in your shirt) is HORRIBLE. You need to pump it a few times to make it hit the trigger, and by then the person could ahve walked away. Plus, a few days after my friend got it, the pump completely came off.

It takes 12-exposure 110 film, which is low-quality film. You're not going to get this processed in 24 hours, because most development places don't have the equipment, so they'll need to send it on to a bigger one. Plus, no flash = better take pictures outside on a sunny day.

All in all, I think this is a pretty stupid item for anyone who's serious about spying or even just out to have fun like I am. A regular small camera *WILL* work better than this one for both snooping around and regular pictures. Buy it for your "future detective" little brother and get yourself a cheaper and better camera.

(BTW, I'm not actually 12, but my parents don't want me giving out my username or info, so I have to use the kids review page.)

Pictures didn't turn out

This Water Gun is really fun to play with. I had seen another version at our Yacht Club and it was super cool. I went to Watch Hill, Rhode Island yesterday and got this version in one of the toy stores. There are only a few places it can leek, but it is still cool. It can't shoot very far but it can be used for close range attacking since it is so powerful. Also , It could be used to protect sonmody who is refilling their gun.
