New interactive, remote control BB-8 toy debuts at New York Toy Fair
Sphero’s BB-8 toy will be getting company soon—a toy company called Spin Master has unveiled a new version of BB-8 but much bigger! This new toy costs $180 (expensive!) but it won’t be hitting toy selves yet until this Fall 2016.
According to Spin Master:
This BB-8 will be much closer to life size than previous versions, standing at 19-inches tall. It includes a remote control (comparble to a Nintendo Wiimote) with a joystick to control it, but the remote is not absolutely necessary thanks to the fact this BB-8 is voice activated. BB-8 will respond when he hears his name, comes when he’s called and will even follow you when commanded to do so. It will also include electronic lights and sounds to match its on-screen counterpart.
