Advantages: Good value, kids will love it.

Disadvantages: Quite basic.

It is quite unbelievable really that the original Toy Story film was released 15 years ago as it still is so enjoyable and fresh for kids today.
My two year old son got obsessed with the movie after watching it for the first time a few months back. He demands to have it on whenever we are at home and we both know it word for word now lol.
For his birthday we decided to buy him a few Toy Story character toys - one of which was this slinky dog.
At the time of purchase, the third instalment of the Toy Story movies had not yet been released so the prices of these toys may have been lower than what they are now. I bought mine form The Disney Store for only ten pounds which I considered to be rather cheap for a Disney toy.
When my son tore off the wrapping paper he was super excited and happy with this gift. On further inspection I found the quality of this to be top notch. It is basically plastic doggy's head and tail, with a slinky spring inbetween - and a string to pull it along wth.
The idea is very simple but it satisfies my little one.
He has had it for six months now and still plays with slinky dog regularly so it was certainly good value and a worthy purchase - although he does prefer his Buzz and Woody characters as they are a little more interesting.
I am definatly pleased with this toy. It is durable, good value, and will please any little boy or girl with a Toy Story obsession !

Summary: A lovely toy for little ones.
