Jakks EyeClops Bionic Eye

This is such a fun fun toy. It's educational... were amazed and kept looking for items to look at. It takes a bit to figure out how to focus the thing, and we didn't use the little plastic dishes to put things in, but it's just amazing to see your skin.. the carpet (ew!), lint, anything!!! Buy it.. we even took ours to school, and after our class of 1st graders played with it, two other teachers borrowed it to use in their classrooms!

This is a great "toy" for kids as well as adults. It takes some time to connect to your tv (I used a Panasonic 42" Plasma) and learn how to focus. The items can easily move out of focus so it takes a steady hand. However, the images are amazing! We were able to see stuff we wouldn't be able to see without the aid of a microscope (and we all know how difficult that is to use!). From denim to coins to skin (I couldn't believe all of the discolorations on my skin - I got a bit nervous that I should see a dermotologist. But when I looked at my arm without the Eyeclops, no possible cancerous growths were evident)

The Eyeclops is a great toy (tool) to use to explore a world we almost never get to see. Highly recommended (I ordered from Amazon for $40) but look for it on sale.

I purchased this for my son last Christmas (I paid around 40.00 new for it on Amazon, but noticed the price has doubled). We can great fun with it until the next day it broke. I know things happen such as this, and it was probably just "bad luck" for me---but I would not advise paying more than $20.00 for this.

This is awesome. Everyone in our house, kids and adults, like to check things out with it. Great for exploring our world up close. We've looked at just about everything. Some everyday things are quite gross magnified but thats what gets my son interested and makes learning fun. Way easier to use for a small child than a microscope.

Everyone in our house has fun with this thing. We have used it to look at just about ANYTHING. It is so easy to just hook right up, we stop and look at things when we are cooking, or cleaning, or someone just randomly comes across something and thinks, "hey, I wonder what this would look like blown up"!

AS long as you focus the eyeclops and then every once in a while make sure the focus didn't get messed up it is easy to see stuff. There are very clear instructions on how to focus and it is easy to do in seconds. My son at the age of 10 had no problems with it. The picture is always clear.
