Pretty Cool...But... December 8, 2008 It's a great-looking Futurama collectible, but you can tell it's not very durable. I would not advise using it alot or opening his torso door (it just shows the inner gears that make him walk, if you're wondering). It's made in China and you can tell. But if you're looking for a fun conversation piece of lovable Bender, this is a pretty cool one to get.
This ain't for kids; a robot that smokes ciggies and guzzles booze! February 15, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
There. Politically incorrect diatribe aside, this isn't for kids.
When I got mine, and upon removing the packaging of my lovable rascal, there was this funky smell and Bender had a slick feel to the case. So I'd advise washing it, and your hands, before really winding him up.
Bender is reasonably well built, and at 9" is a terrific size. And the reflective version has grown on me (I bought both reflective and matte versions.)
Best of all, he's educational because, when people ask, I say "He's the lovable rascal from 'Futurama', a show written by a bunch of folks with PhDs!"
Not a bad price, but wash or burn (and/or get high from the smell)...

Very cute, but not very durable. One of the latches broke when we first played with it. Not good for a child's toy, but any adult fan of Futurama would probably enjoy having this.
