Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)These little gear box wind-up toys (you can watch all of the action as it takes place - the toy has an "open" build) are soooo much fun. My son and I found these toys by Kikkerland while on vacation, and I decided to purchase them from Amazon. "Cranky" isn't as active a toy as several of the others in this series, but he can hold note cards, business cards, photos, etc., which makes it fun for a desk. My only recommendation to the company would be to consider adding a timer to Cranky... how cool would it be to have Cranky go off, and the note he is "holding" is the reminder for your next call or meeting? I really wish the photo of Cranky showed better colors. For example, my Cranky has red rubber feet and a bright yellow windup key. Very snappy! All of the keys and feet differ between the individual toys, so you never know what you'll get.
I bought two of the more active toys for my 8 y.o. son (Awika and Cosmojetz), and they've been a big success! I only recommend the toys for responsible children who do not beat up or abuse their toys. These are not Mattel or Playskool toys, but cool and fun? Yep, way more unusual and cool than your average toy. Recommended!

1580Chico Bicalho was born in Rio de Janeiro and studied at an elementary school where the football field had trees throughout, because the school was against cutting them down. Later he moved to Petropolis, RJ, an area surrounded by the South Atlantic tropical rainforest. He believes in having a spiritual life, in freedom, and in peace. He supports the theory that the earth is one living thing and feels that humans should understand nature, live with nature, and be equal to nature. He received a BFA in sculpture from RISD and MFA in photography NYU. Since 1995, he has been working with a group of friends on reforestation projects replanting native South Atlantic tropical rain forest trees. Chico lives in Rio with his wife, a graphic designer / industrial designer called Isabella Torquato. He wants to keep traveling, making art, and planting trees. Cranky wants to help you remember stuff by holding cards, pictures, notes, reminders, whatever you can wedge in its little claws. He dances to get your attention, kind of like those women in boxing matches who show the rounds cards. Nevertheless, Cranky's action is more exciting when he's not holding anything, since he isn't a bodybuilder, and the weight slows the poor creature down. Designed by: Chico Bicalho Features: -Silver, green and yellow keys, green, blue and white feet. -Material: stainless spring, PVC feet. -Overall Dimensions: 4.5'' H x 2.5'' W x 1.5'' D.
