🔮 Mattel Games Mystic Oracle 8 Ball Review

I was so excited to get this for my son, I had one when he was growing up. But it's such a failure. The triangle piece that actually shows the answer doesn't even show up, so it's essentially a paperweight. My son cried when he opened this today because it's rubbish and doesn't even work. Don't buy this.

Yes it is! No fuss, no fuss, no batteries. Now Mattel is selling this piece of Boomer memorabilia, and the same cryptic and sometimes nonsensical replies ("Try later") still pop up on the "clock screen". If it's too retro for today's kids, maybe their parents and grandparents will laugh at it.

It's useless. I don't know what they did to change it, but you literally can't read the result! If my family works hard enough, maybe we can read something, or at least guess. Not funny at all, just annoying. Save money and buy something else. It's now in the corner of my daughter's room, at the bottom of the storage bin.

The liquid in this ball is pitch black and appears thick; The answer is hidden half the time as the floating piece struggles to rise completely to the surface of the liquid. With enough effort, we can usually decipher the answer, but repeatedly spinning

We were hoping for a sense of nostalgia after purchasing it, but it was a HUGE disappointment. 90% of the time the answer die is in an unmarked spot. And a few times when it's in the right position, it's unreadable. If it's unreadable, what's the point of owning it? If you're looking for the same as it was over 50 years ago, this one doesn't compare, it's made in two pieces of lightweight, cheap plastic that are soldered together so the seam is visible right down the middle of the ball. , and…

This should have been a great gift for a child. Instead, it never worked properly and the recipient was utterly and justifiably disappointed. several clearly visible answers (Yes; It's doubtful; It's safe; Please try again, etc.). Instead, after the ball is shaken, the triangle slowly rises up and straightens forever. The answer is then difficult to read because the solution in the sphere is very dark, making the faintly printed and blurry text on the triangle almost unreadable. are involved in

Let me explain: the plastic this thing is made of is very resistant to damage. It took me a long time (two full minutes? I walked carefully) to shatter the outer shell of this juggernaut and my hammer, and even then it took me another twenty minutes to get inside and view the contents. and figure out how to get a small plastic icosahedron (essentially a 20-sided cube), a little treasure with all the fortunes on it, from a separate container of blue liquid. my steady progress was impressed…
