But the code isn't valid for in-store collection; so why all the comments about where it is/out of stick?

I got mine for £79 with the force band (battle worn bundle) a few months ago at Tesco but that was a price glitch on the only 2 they had in store (yeah I bought both) and included staff discount so this is the cheapest I have seen on a 'real' deal, heat :sunglasses:

£80 for a ten-minute novelty gift is way too much. I owned a Sphero, which is what this toy is based on and it is very limited in what it can do.
If your house is carpeted, forget it. Wooden or smooth tiled floors only.
Having played with one at the Gadget Show this year, they are the same thing with a loosely attached head (stuck with a magnet) which comes off rather easily.
My teenage son was desperate to have one after seeing the film, but after 3 minutes playing with it, he changed his mind.
If you have the money and don't care about longevity, knock yourself out. But if you want value for money, I wouldn't spend more than £25 on one of these. There are better smart-phone controlled toys out there for less.
Hot for the price (they were £130 in April) but dead cold for the product.

For people that are into it, these things are hackable and there is a 3rd party app that allows you to modify and reprogram the thing. It's actually a decent app for kids and people that are into tech.
