This is such a classic, cute toy. I got one for my son for Xmas when he was 14 mons old and for one of his friends that was 18 mons old. They spent the entire Xmas party running around with the popper. When we take it to the park, the kids, even bigger ones, fight to play with it. I only paid $5 for each which I thought it was ridiculously cheap, I can see now they are $15 each, but still worth the $$ :)
