Unlike the legendary BIGFOOT, the Imaginext® BIGFOOT The Monster is a life-like remote controlled monster friend for kids three to eight, with lots of personality, fun facial expressions, interactive phrases like "Wanna Play?" and much more. Featuring more than 80 actions and phrases, BIGFOOT comes to life with a kid-friendly foot shaped remote control that has easy-to-use, icon-driven buttons. With the simple touch of the remote, preschoolers can make BIGFOOT walk forward and backwards, elicit happy or angry emotions, fall asleep, throw a ball, exercise and even do a forward somersault and a backwards roll! BIGFOOT also features interactive touch points on his belly and mouth that will make him laugh or eat a leaf that evokes fun chomping and burping sound effects. The Imaginext® BIGFOOT The Monster will soon be available at retailers nationwide for approximately $99.99.
