Description
This is the droid you're looking for! The unassuming hero from the latest Star Wars movie BB-8 is here and he's ready to play. With autonomous behaviour and authentic movement he acts just like the real BB-8 does on the big screen. This is the Special Edition Battle-Worn BB-8 with realstic wearing over his body. Hey, we can't always look our best, especially after many adventures.
Authentic movement
Guide the BB-8 droid across the galaxy with either the included and completely awesome Force Band, your smartphone or tablet for hours of endless fun.
Adaptive personality
As you interact with the BB-8 he learns and evolves, creating a character of his own that will keep you and your family entertained.
Autonomous behaviour
As his personality develops, so does his character. With autonomous behaviour built-in and the ability to listen/respond by reacting to your voice, you'll quickly fall in love with the charming BB-8 smartphone controlled robotic ball.
Holographic communication
Not just a remote controlled droid, the BB-8 Star Wars smartphone controlled robotic ball can also send and receive virtual holographic video messages through the dedicated app, just like his predecessor R2D2.
Inductive charging
Easy to charge, the BB-8 can be quickly charged via drop and go inductive charging on the sleek accompanying base.
30 meter range
With an impressive 30 meter range, the BB-8 can get up to plenty of mischief without you having to leave the sofa.
1 Hour battery life
Despite it's size, the BB-8 features an incredible 1 hour battery life, allowing you to keep exploring for longer.
Compatible with Apple and Android devices via Bluetooth
Operated using the dedicated application available for Apple and Android devices, the BB-8 robotic ball is controlled wirelessly over Bluetooth and comes with an operation range of 30m (approx).
Use the Force... band.
This is an essential accessory that makes an already amazingly fun gadget an absolute essential must buy for any Star Wars fan. Strap the Force Band on and use force gestures to move BB-8 like a true Jedi.
Control BB-8 with a gesture.
Force push, force pull and drive... only a fully trained Jedi with the force as his ally is up to the task. Is that you? Or somebody you know? Your App-controlled BB-8 responds immediately to your gestures for a truly authentic Jedi experience.
Authentic battle-worn Star Wars design
Make no mistake, the Force Band looks as though it could be a prop in the movies. With sympathetic styling and simulated wear, this thing really looks the part.
App-controlled activities
The Force Band isn't just about BB-8 but is an experience that allows you to go deeper into the Star Wars™ galaxy. Learn how to master gesture driving with a brand new adventure, view your collection of Holocrons found in Force Awareness mode, and explore more ways to play. The app has many features and activities and is perfect for the intrepid Star Wars fan. The Holocron hunting activity "Force Awareness Mode" for instance is similar in some ways to Pokemon Go, with real world locations providing a source for theoretical loot. And that's always a winner!
Start as a Padawan to become a true Jedi
After you've advanced beyond Droid Control, expand your abilities as BB-8 guides you through Force Training. Use the band by itself to complete Combat Training for Blasters, Lightsabers and the Force itself!
Compatible with Apple and Android devices via Bluetooth
Operated using the dedicated application available for Apple and Android devices, the BB-8 robotic ball is controlled wirelessly over Bluetooth and comes with an operation range of 25m (approx).
