We're not a toy family trying not to buy too much plastic from China, but we were intrigued by this little monkey and waited for the hype to end and the price to return to a reasonable $15, and we love it it! Just a beautiful, well designed toy that's easy to fall in love with, the sounds are great, punchy. We'll probably get tired of it or it'll break, but so far just impressed! Well done! But beware of fakes. Many of the negative reviews seem to come from fakes. In our experience, a genuine WowWee toy will not detach or fall apart.
