Perfect for little guys!! This whole series of dinosaurs have been a perfect present for all three of my grandsons....and we adults love playing with them as well!!
One of my son's favorite "prehistoric" toys Granted it's not a dinosaur, but my little boy seems to love it just the same. He was always drawn to it in the store, so I knew it was a sure thing before I ordered it. I think a dinosaur would be a smarter purchase for someone who is unsure whether the child would like it, but if the child also likes safari animals (think elephants) it's probably a safe purchase. We have no problems with the push button or the sound mechanism on this toy as another reviewer did, but I have had that problem with one of the dinosaurs in the collection so I'm sure there are some faulty ones out there. Overall, we're completely satisfied with the mammoth and glad to have purchased it.
A big hit For my 4 year old nephew, this was one of those toys that caused every other Christmas gift to sit in the corner.
My 2yr old really likes it! My 2yr old got this one and another Imaginext Dinosaur for Christmas and this one is by far his favorite. He loves attaching the cart to the Mammoth and moving them around.
The reason why I give 4 stars instead of 5 is because the button to push down on to make the noise is not real easy. When you think it's pushed down all the way, you have to push a little harder to get it to make noise. Also, like the last reviewer I think the wooly hair is going to attract dirt and not stay very clean. But overall the toy is fun and very durable.
mammoth a miss - attached cart a big hit I like the mammoth but it's not a favorite of my two sons. They much prefer to play with the dinosaurs. The attached cart is a big hit and they contantsly drag that around so I'm not sure if it turned out to be such a bargain for me. I'm hoping it will become a favored toy and keep putting it out there but it usually sits on the sidelines. It just can't compete with the Mega t-Rex, Allosaurus, and all the other Imaginext dinosaurs. My only complaint is that this prehistoric animal comes with a patch of wooly hair, which is great for authencity but not so great for keeping it clean and hygenic.
