Customer Rating:      Summary: Too early to say Comment: I've read the reviews of others here and to be fair it's not that bad.
It is a bit fiddly and this aspect of the design should be much better although it might be more suitable to little fingers.
If you get one, I would suggest that you actually PUT BATTERIES IN IT and switch it on instead of using just the "try me" mode before you start complaining. Once you've done that the spaceship does issue commands and responds when you do them correctly. Go left or up or right. After a few moves Peppa will tell you to land and exclaim, "That was fun!" Not bad for learning left and right but not exactly rocket science either.
My daughter certainly enjoys playing with hers and really, isn't that all that matters?
Customer Rating:      Summary: peppa pig electronic spaceship Comment: This toy is quite heavy for little hands. Also it just says the same one sentence, nothing else, no rocket noises which would have been nice. The figures do not fit very well in the seat belts and fall out, they are too fiddely to put in the seat belts. Also the doors fall off.
All in all not a brilliant buy but it is hard when your kids see this stuff on tv and want it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: peppa pig rocket great value Comment: this toy is great value for money great sound effects a must have for anyone with a child who loves the tv show. very durable great sound effects. hours of fun for your child
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very disappointing toy Comment: This is the first review I have ever written, this product is so bad I felt I had to.
There are 3 seats on the spaceship, 1 for each of the characters included in the box, Peppa, Danny and George. Each seat has a small plastic seatbelt which clips on at the top and bottom of the seat. The seatbelts are incredibly fiddly to fasten and unfasten and you can't just leave them fastened as the characters are too difficult to put in their seats with the belts fastened. It is hard enough to get them into the seat without the seatbelt as their little plastic legs have to be in exctly the right position.
If you don't bother with the belts then the characters just fall all over the place as soon as the rocket is moved.
Once seated and belted in you then have the same issue trying to remove them from the seats, my 3 year old (a huge Peppa Pig fan) found this so frustrating she ended up in tears because she couldn't get them out.
The 3 doors to the compartments are very difficult to shut properly, especially for little hands.
The sounds are also very limited (but incredibly loud), one recorded speech from Peppa and some rocket noises and that seems to be it.
I think this whole thing is rubbish, a waste of money and your child will be bored/frustrated with it within minutes.
