Hasbro Buckaroo New Version for 2015 Game 4-5 years,Nylon/a,483803490

Not opened yet cos it's a pressie but had this game many, many years ago when I was small! Bought for my grandson and I'm sure he'll love it. No complicated rules to follow and great for fine motor skills. Can't wait for Christmas Day! The thing with this game you can play on your own or with others. Hopefully it'll keep him entertained for ages.

Exactly as expected.

Good game as ever, but I swear, it doesn’t buck as vigorously as it once did…! Very tame, very mild but still enjoyable with my little one.

Kids have lots of fun playing with it

After having this game as a child, I bought the new version for my children for Christmas to play. Unfortunately I was disappointed with the item. The instructions tell you to push the tail down to get the Donkey to stand but it would take us several minutes to get the Donkey to stay in place and when in place it would either buck after 1 item or not at all. Kids got bored of it instantly as it was no fun waiting for it to be set up. And as previous reviews have stated, when it does buck it doesnt throw the items off like the old version did.

AS far as I can recall the original Buckaroo used to properly spring up and launch the items of its back, whether this one is faulty or the spring action has been dampened down for "Safety" reasons I am not sure, I suspect its the latter. Aside from the dissapointment of the "Buck", its a good game to play for youngsters, but lacks the kick. I suppose its the old addage of "They dont make em' like they used to!!"

Bought for my grandson he loves it so much fun for all the family

I bought this for a four year old he was not impressed but the adults loved it
