Dom Robinson reviews

Poo-chi

Distributed by
Tiger Toys

  • Ages: 6 and up
  • Players: 1
  • Price: £24.99
  • Cover One thing I'm not going to do in this review is to label Tiger Toys's Poo-chi, or any other similar products released recently such as Sony's £1500 Aibo, as a 'cyber-pooch'. I detest the name 'pooch' for a dog and when I use the internet I'm not 'surfing through cyberspace', I'm just using a computer.

    Poo-chi is just as lazy as a real dog. When it wants attention it'll bark playfully and move expectantly up and down, while sleepy time leaves it lying down. He'll tell when he loves you as the circles in his eyes turn into love-hearts.

    The billing states that the more you care for him, the happier he will become. However at the age of 28, there's only so many times I can see him bark his head off, wag his tail and flap his ears, so it's most likely one for the younger kids.


    Poo-chi is able to sense light, sound and touch - it says here - but he mostly responded to pressing the button on his head and waving the electronic bone in front of his face. This can be placed in his mouth, but it doesn't seem to want to stay in there.

    While one Poo-chi alone can sing six different songs including "When The Saints Go Marching In" and Beethoven's "Ode to Joy", the classic tune used in Die Hard when the safe was finally opened. However, if you have access to more than one Poo-chi they can be placed opposite each other to react and sing duets.


    Cover Overall, At £25, it's not going to be the most revolutionary toy ever made but should suffice for a few days entertainment over a holiday period.
