Classic
on June 17, 2025
Posted by: Rcart613
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Classic 8 Ball but glittery red. My children have had a blast asking questions and shaking to get a response. Of course “my reply is no” is the least favorite. Honestly, I’ve asked a few questions myself. Brings back fun memories of growing up.

Childhood memories!
on June 17, 2025
Posted by: Grandma
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I presented the magic eight ball to my 6 year old grandson by telling him that I used to play with my friend's when I was little and it was really magic! He was a bit skeptical but was interested. He first tried to ask a question of the magic ball while it was still in the box, turning it over to get his answer. His question was a little complicated so the eight ball's response didn't make a lot of sense. His father and I both asked questions next to demonstrate simple queries, and he understood the concept. We took the magic eight ball out of the box but had to caution him not to treat it like a bouncy ball or it might break. We all enjoyed asking silly questions for a few rounds, although I had to explain some answers to him. Phrases like "you can rely..." or "my sources say..." are a bit advanced for a six year old. I had a little problem (vision wise) reading the phrases, the red made it not clear to my old eyes. When it was time to end our game and put the magic eight ball away, my grandson asked where the off switch was!

Great new look for a classic toy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such an exciting toy for my kids to open! The packaging was easy to open, and the product is easy to use with the instructions clearly labeled on the packaging. I love that it’s a classic, easy to use toy, but I love the new red exterior, which gives it a new look compared to original magic 8 balls. My kids have had so much fun asking the questions and reading their answers. It’s sturdy, solid, and well made and can hold up to many shakes for questions and answers. We will be playing with this toy often for years to come!

100 Days of Summer... and More!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this magic 8 ball! My son is almost 5. Now that it's summer, we have been using it to decide on activities. Should we go to the pool? "Ask again later." Should we play cars? "Signs point to yes." This and a few hundred other fun uses! It's also been helping us with word recognition (which happens before reading!) as my son wants to look and have us read it. He can even recognize the word "Yes" now! This is such a nostalgic, simple, open ended, fun trip down memory lane for so many of us millennial parents. Lastly, just want to note the color & glitter design is really fun. Buy it!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great nostalgic toy for kids! Seems as durable as the original and has offered hours of fun for my kids. The kids love to ask the magic ball questions for better answers when they don’t agree with my answer LOL.

Magic 8 Ball in Ruby Red is as magical as ever!
on June 26, 2025
Posted by: Mamakortiz
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The classic Magic 8 Ball is back in a shiny glittery red color and we are feel nostalgic! I suddenly feel the weight lifted off my shoulders and have given all my decisions over to the Ball. No more worrying if I am making the right choice, just trust in the ball.
I would recommend this to a friend!
