Customer Review :
A classic.
Little can be said to describe this product. It's a classic toy of fortune-telling. Mine predicted that Bush would (sigh) win the second term in office, so it may be telling the truth when you answer the question. It also predicted that Obama and McCain would win the primaries, and Obama would win the whole thing, but we'll see about that. It's on my desk, and words cannot describe how awesome it is. My only grudge? after a while, bubbles form inside the ball and obscure the view of the predictions. I know it was cheap, but I just wish that it was better built than to allow bubbles to form. Wait, does that mean there is a leak in the ball? Oh man. Quality control, Mattel, quality control!

Age that enjoys the 8 Ball
It is fun for children to think of a question and then laugh at the answer that comes up. Adults like it too. Put questions on a piece of paper and put them in a draw. The "genie" with the towel around her head and too much jewelry on, rubs the eight ball and gives them their answer. It makes for a lot of laughter.

Magic 8 Ball adies in decision making
Even needed a little help making that critical decision? The Magic 8 Ball once again proves the test of time as a crucial management support tool! Seriously - the toy provides a little humor in an often time too stressful work place. And - if you don't like the answer you can always ask again and again until you get the answer that works for you!

Super fun but...
I love my Magic 8 Ball! It's so cool to play with it and my friends love it.
The only con I've found are the small bubbles inside and sometimes the answer cube doesn't give any answer. It gets stuck on its edges sometimes and not on the plain side to give an answer.
In general it's a great buy. Thanks Amazon!

Magic 8 Ball
I bought the Magic 8 Ball for my 10-year-old brother-in-law. I wasn't totally sure if he would like it or not, but he has been having fun with it. He and his friends take turns asking it questions and think of different ways to re-word their questions when they don't get a yes or no response. I was impressed that they were putting a lot of thought into their questions even though they know not to rely too heavily on the answers. I recommend this toy.

Love this water gun!
My boys, 5 1/2 and 10 1/2 both LOVE this gun! It's easy enough for my younger son to use and fun enough to keep my older son's interest. A++++

Great gun for a great price!
So I was out looking for cheap waterguns that my girlfriend's little brother and I could have water gun fights. I bought this on Amazon when it was 11.50 and I was unsure how much I would like it. As it turns out this water gun is one of the best I have own because of it's specs and price! This thing can shoot from side to side and frontwards. It goes a nice distance and I really like how you don't have to pump it several times to spray the water. The water capasity is also very nice. It holds a good amount in there and it also has a quick fill cap. All you have to do is insert a water hose and it will fill up in a matter of seconds. I liked this thing so much that I had to buy another one for my girlfriend so she could play with us! Good gun for a great price!

Old ones were so much better
I was trying to find a cheaper CPS version. This was the only one that fit the budget after days of researching. Its OK... It seems that the water guns are starting to suck. Try researching on water guns. Back in the days the power of the water guns was determined by how much air was pumped in it. Now the amount of air and most of the other water guns are limited. I'm very disappointed and frustrated. THERE ARE NO WELL MADE WATER GUNS ANYMORE

Killer water gun
I bought this for my son after he was pummeled by several different friends at several different pools this summer with their water guns. He no longer fears them or their worthless little toys. This gun blows all the others away. He can shoot them from the side and they have no idea it's coming, he can blast them with rapid fire and several other ways just as the description promises with a four-way nozzle. He loves it. He and his friends are 6-7 years old.

Customer Review :
cute, but huge and doesnt work on uneven surfaces
I bought this item looking for something to hang in the tub. I didn't like the net versions. I had wanted to install it in the tub so the toys could drain and they would be easily accessible. Unfortunately it doesn't mount to a curved tub at all so I had to mount it to the wall and put a towel under it to catch the draining water......bummer because it is very cute and better looking than the other options out there.....at this point it should just get a wire basket and put a towel under it. Ohhhh well!!

Not for Italian tile or similar surfaces...
It's very stylish and modern. Although it didn't stick to our Italian tile shower wall. The only solution to that problem would be to use the attachment for screws (but who would want to drill holes in their shower wall??) or use waterproof superglue -- and that's exactly what I did. Only you have to get the type of glue that is waterproof and the stronger the glue -- the better. Another thing is that the container for toys doesn't really hold all that much and the whole thing is pretty large in size, but it's mostly the base of it (the actual frog) that's taking up all the room...so pretty much it's just for "looks" if you know what I mean.

It's too big for a small tub!
We registered for this before my daughter was born without actually seeing it in real life. It is huge! I don't know anything else about it because we never used it and gave it to my sister-in-law. We have a small tub and it was way too big to try to put in there. So if you have a large tub I'm sure it is wonderful, but don't buy it if you have a small one!

Awesome product; skip the tape and use the suction cups
I've read some of the reviews here and I feel for those of you who can't get it to stick to your tub enclosures. We never used the tape but did use the suction cups and it has held up very well (and we have ours full to the brim). In order to get the suction cups to stick well you have to wet them on the back and wet the tile or fiberglass. This helps them to have staying power. Ours hasn't moved for several months now. In my opinion sticky tape doesn't work very well; it doesn't have enough strength to withstand the moisture. If you are inclined to use the sticky tape then I would also use silicon with it to get it to have lasting staying power (this is what is used on those pump dispensers that are seen in some showers). We used sticky tape and silicon on our pump dispenser and it is very heavy and it hasn't budged. Plus you can just scrape the tape and silicon off once you remove it one day. Just a thought. Enjoy!

Editorial Review :
Take your blasting skills to the extreme! This two-in-one blaster is more than 3-feet long and can fire foam arrows up to 35-feet. Aim with accuracy and pinpoint precision using the targeting scope. Two quick-reload clips hold a total of 12 streamlined darts, and there's even a fold-down bipod to help you steady your aim for those really important shots. Gotta make a quick pop at close range? Removable components rapidly provide one-handed freedom with a pistol-style weapon! In either mode, load up, aim, press the trigger, and watch the darts fly! Great fun with your friends at home or on the job! Ages 6 and up.
Customer Review :
A lot of fun for kids and adults alike!
What can I say? This gun represents Nerf's new N-Force product line as their flagship weapon. And the way this gun performs is great for the young, and the young at heart alike. The gun is split into two main sections, the long rifle part, and the shorter front attachment that can also function as a single-shot blaster. As far as the main gun is concerned, it functions much like an old bolt action rifle, with a six-dart magazine (which is quite cool, and it comes with two), and a bright orange handle on each side (works for lefties, as well) that loads the dart from the magazine and readies the weapon for firing. The one disadvantage of this is that it's awkward to aim the weapon and get your next shot ready, since the handle is so far back. This makes your firing speed a bit slower than one might hope, as those less strong (like kids) will have trouble priming it without bringing the gun down from firing position. It also has a "tactical rail mount" on top, (and a little optical sight made to look like a scope) which is just a bit wider than a picatinny rail (for those of you into guns), and with a bit of work (filing, cutting), can fit attachments (sights, etc.) designed for airsoft or other weapons. The back stock can be compressed to make the gun slightly smaller, and a collapsible bipod is permanently attached to the front. the handle on the gun is small (good for kids and those with small hands) but will also fit those with medium/larger sized hands (although not entirely comfortably)
Attaching the secondary blaster to the front of the gun doesn't improve range or accuracy, and makes the gun fairly long and unwieldy. (That "over 3-ft long!" selling point actually becomes a negative here.) If the secondary attachment is put on slightly at an angle or not locked in all the way (which is VERY easy to do) the darts can rub against the side of the barrel on the attachment and actually slow down, only firing about half as far as normal. It also makes the gun much heavier and front-heavy, and kids might have trouble using the gun this way (or at least, they'll smack it into every wall when they turn around) I usually leave this off, and just have it as a secondary single-shot gun.
Overall, firing distances were comparable to other nerf guns, with ranges (5 ft. above floor, straight ahead, no wind) ranging from 25-35 feet. With a bit of practice, and arcing your shot (firing slightly upwards), you can be at least somewhat accurate at ranges beyond that. And if you miss, that's what your other 11 darts are for, right?
Remember, be sure to always teach your kids proper gun safety, even with nerf guns! At close range, you could seriously injure someone if a dart hits their eye. My "testing group" (my little nephews and nieces) had a blast with this gun, along with my other nerf weaponry, and I definitely recommend this gun to anyone looking to step up their nerf weapons, and give their kids (or themselves!) and advantage over the neighbors/roomates!

Very disappointed!!
I just bought my two sons each one of these yesterday and already it is more of a headache than fun. It jams up constantly and really is a pain to try to enjoy. Would not recommend it at all--just a heavy piece of junk plastic in the shape of a gun that somehow sells it, but the real function of the gun, to shoot nerf darts, barely works.

nerf gun review
This was a good gun.The scope does not line up with the barrel, so you have to aim higher to hit your target, so use the rail on the gun, also some advertisements say the scope magnifies, but it does not. The Longshot shoots pretty far, but the second gun they give you doesn't make it go farther. It shoots just about as far as the other nerf guns. I got it to shoot 40 feet! But the Longshot gets jammed easily, but it is easy to get the jammed dart out. This is a fun gun.
Rating :    
Longshot CS-6
This is a great gun overall, but the extension is very bad, and the scope doesn't work. Putting on the extension might make the accuracy better, but not the range. If you want more range, take it off. Also, people say this gun jams a lot, but if you load it all the way, and hear the click all the time, it won't jam as much.

good gun
this jammed a lot and hard to cock made a bad gun. it cut up darts. but later its darts were replaced

Customer Review :
Mold stays inside of the toys.
Cute bath toys, but the mold stays inside the toys. Very dificult to clean. The water doen't come out easily.
Rating :  
Great tub toys.
My 9 month old daughter loves to play with these while she sits in her tub seat. Even my 5 yr old likes playing with them.
Only thing i don't like about them is that some of them are difficult to get the water out of them. They act as squirting toys but some of the water is impossible to remove from the toys. This means that they will eventually get pitched in the garbage if the water in side gets nasty.
Rating :    
Okay but not fab.
These colourful little sea creatures snap together but my 9 month old cannot do this as it requires a little more dexterity and strength than he has. The little bag is cute to hang on the side of his Bath for him to get the toys out of and it doesn't come off easily when he is putting things in or taking them out. They do squirt but it is way too hard for his little hands to squeeze them enough to squirt, and it takes some squeezing for an adult. Having said that they are colourful and therefore eye-catching to him, and they are great for chewing on and throwing around in the bath.

Terrible--buy elegant squirties instead
These are terrible. They are hard plastic, uninteresting for an infant. The elegant squirties are the way to go.

Various Flaws, Better Bath Toys Available
This is our least favorite bath toy. To start off with positive feedback--the strong point of this set is the great colors and shapes; they are really eye catching and unique. The flaws however, overwhelm the aesthetics. Our son is 18 months old and has a hard time squeezing the rather rigid plastic hard enough to make the water squirt out. He sees mommy squeezing water out, then gets frustrated that he cannot. Had we used them from the start strictly as floating bath toys, he might have enjoyed them at that level. Also, as it is tough to squeeze the plastic, admittedly, even for me--water often remains in the interior space of the toy. Sometimes by the next time we drag them out for bath-time play, we find that a skudgy sort of water is dispelled from the interior. And, because of the unique shapes of various pieces, it is rather difficult for little fingers to lock the units together. We prefer other bath toys including the easy kitchen items: baster, ladle, cup, tupperware w/lid, strainer, etc.
