So I bought two (provided by Argos employee at random) and they're utter crap. Build quality: 1/5. Fun factor: 1/5. Reliability: 2/5
Do not buy.
Bottom line: they look nice *on the picture*.

Very small and doesn't give much light, not worth more than £1
for the 7W models you need the lithium rechargeable batteries (99p) + Charge (Ebay) Of course not suitable for kids.
But the ones above with Alkaline batteries might be ok for Children over 8?
Very small, but my little one will love it worth £1.99

Cheaper, brighter but not as cute.
for the 7W models you need the lithium rechargeable batteries (99p) + Charge (Ebay) Of course not suitable for kids.
But the ones above with Alkaline batteries might be ok for Children over 8?
Range of colours too (UK only for pre xmas)
