Forest & Twelfth 5" Dolphin Sea Animal Toys – Transforming Action Figure – Changes from a Detailed Animal Toy to a Unique Robot Toy in Seconds – Great Gift for Both Girls and Boys (5" Dolphin)

My son loves these animal transformers. They do break if kids aggressively transform them, but my son still plays with all the ones he has

Love it! Son sleeps with it a lot!

I know these toys weren’t super expensive but they were atrociously bad quality. Some of the moving pieces were either lose or wouldn’t work (too tight maybe?). I got two others and returned them without even opening because this one was such a bad design.

Our kid loves these! Purchased first at a science museum but it eventually broke. So did his heart so Amazon, you got us! Purchased a replacement and he’s happy.

Forest & Twelfth have really found a pattern they like, seeing as every one of their transforming animals uses basically the same transformation with minor changes to how various parts are hidden. This results in a number of hilariously flawed robots with questionable design choices, but frankly I don't much care about that. These bots are full of character, and their animal forms have a far more animalistic shape than a good chunk of the classic Beast Wars models managed. It's debatable whether they're really worth an average of $15, but when you take into consideration that Hasbro's offerings in a similar size category run upwards of $25 the disparity seems fair. Definitely looking forward to expanding my collection of "deformers," if only because just trying to make them stand up and look presentable is comedically difficult.

My grandson loves these! We picked up the Black Bear as a gift to add to his collection...as soon as we opened the package, a leg came tumbling out. He was devastated, I tried to fix, but it just needed to be returned. The cross-section of plastic that had fractured was very thin and not stout at all. We have not given him the replacement yet. We unpacked it to avoid a repeat of the tear-shower, and it is in one piece. I just hope it is more sturdy than the one it is replacing. He has several others and none have broken, so we are hoping the break was a fluke...

My grandson is into transformers and when he saw the animal transformer, he asked me to get the dolphin. As soon as he got the toy, he would not want to leave it at home if we went out to run errands and it became his buddy to sleep with. Durable and easy to transform. I recommend this toy. Please make sure your child is passed the age of putting things in the mouth. Small parts on dolphin may come off and can be a choking hazard.

Made veryyy cheap. Seems like something you’d get straight from the dollar store !
