At first this toy was fun and harmless, that soon ended when my 4 year old (who will be 5 this summer) was stabbed in the mouth by his 6 year old cousin. Although the top edge is rounded, the combination of hard plastic and a sharp bottom edge easily makes this toy unsafe. Granted, kids shouldn't hit each other with toy swords, accidents do happen. It's unfortunate that a toy can lead to a trip to the ER and 4 stitches. The hospital staff insisted that my son was stabbed with a knife--not a plastic sword.

My son is 3 and he loved getting the sword and mask for his birthday. My one complaint is that the mask didn't fit very well and kept falling off, or shifting so that he couldn't see, no matter how tight I tied it. It would have been better if elastic I think. The sword is definitely cool enough. It makes neat sounds, and he still plays with the sword every day.

We bought this sword for part of my 3 year old's stepsons halloween costume. After all, Leonardo had to have something to carry! He absolutely loves the fact that it has soud effects and received numerous comments on it while carrying it trick or treating. He plays with it everytime he comes over to our house. My only complaint is that the mask is kind of cheaply made and one of the seams is coming loose. Nothing a quick stitch can't fix though!
