LEGO Star Wars Yoda Minifigure Alarm Clock, 9.5", Red (Model: 9003080)

I had gotten the Darth Vader Lego Minifigure alarm clock for myself some time ago. I loved it! I was planning on collecting the others. My mother, though, needed an alarm clock--and she also really liked Darth. For her birthday, I got her Master Yoda. He is a little smaller than Darth Vader. Also, his lower legs are not able to move. However, he is much cuter in person than he appears in the product picture. He appears as he does in the new "Star Wars The Clone Wars" cartoon. When you press his head, you get a green light to illuminate the time (Darth Vader has a red light). His arms and hands are poseable. I have found the hands nice because you can have the figures hold things. The clock is easy to set, and because this one is smaller, it might be more ideal for children. The alarm is a beeping sound. Some people were disappointed it wasn't music or talking, but I find this better for myself. I am a deep sleeper, and I really need an annoying sound to wake me up. If you hit the snooze button, the clock will go off five minutes later. If you continue to ignore it, the beeping will increase until it makes a sound like a fire alarm. No doubt have you, Yoda get you up he will!

Most often people write a review just after getting the item/product, so really you don't know how good the item/product is. We have had this clock for almost 3 years now. We still have not had to replace the batteries (one concern I had before ordering it) and it is still working perfectly despite the countless times it had dropped to the hardwood floors from a bunk bed. I have been super impressed with this clock!! We also got the storm trooper one and it has the same review!

This clock is super cute, and manages to keep the time, so 2 stars for that but HOLY COW that alarm is terribly annoying. It's not even the traditional MEHP MEHP MEHP noise, it's this horrible electronic buzz that would yank anyone out of a solid REM cycle as an awful start to the day. It would probably work well for kids who sleep through their alarm, but I feel like that's an older demographic than the kids who would want a Yoda alarm clock.

I bought this for my 6 year old - whom is a huge Star Wars fan. There is a large number display, AND the alarm time can be seen at the same time below the time. I really like that this doesn't stay lit up all night long. If my son were to wake up and wanted to know the time he would just have to push on Yoda's head and it would light up. Please note that you can't fold Yoda's legs to make him sit down (not a problem for us, but might be for some people). I really wish this would have come with the Star Wars theme song as the alarm, not the standard annoying beeping that most alarms have (though I suppose that is the point of an alarm clock!)

Pros:- The backlight/snooze is green and bright.- Battery-operated = portable, our son often plays with it as an action figure.Cons:- NOT made in the USA, as stated in Amazon's description.- The buttons to set the time and alarm are on the backside so it may be a challenge for younger children to handle this task.- Backlight does not stay on for more than a minute (but that could be a good thing to avoid draining the batteries).- The unlit display can make the numbers difficult to read.- Would like to have this with a power cord option.

This is the second clock we have like this (the other is darth vader) and I like this one better. It is LEGO so my boys love it, however I like that the alarm only goes off for the minute. So when it's set for 7:00, it goes off at 7:00, but at 7:01 it stops. This is perfect for us as we are using it as an alarm to wake my son up to go to the bathroom in the night. If he doesn't hear it, I don't want it going off for the next hour; it's only a minute. The actual alarm sound is what I like better than the other one. This one has a beep pattern that increases in frequency the longer it goes off. The numbers are backlit in green when Yoda's head is pushed down. Would recommend it to others.

I have always been a fan of these Lego alarm clocks. In the past, I have used a Boba Fett and a stormtrooper. However, those got dirty and didn't hold up over the years. I swear I am a clean person, but I suspect these aren't meant to be kept for 5+ years. Luckily, I will never grow out of Star Wars, and this Yoda alarm clock fits even more perfectly on my shelf than my Boba Fett one. I also love the vibrant colors palette .

My 5 year old requested this for Christmas. He's ready to be a 'big kid' and set an alarm for school in the morning. This clock is cute and he loves it. I dislike that the numbers aren't very dark, it's only back lit for a few seconds when you push the head so you cannot see the time very well in dark places unless constantly pushing the head, but I can deal with that. No big deal. What is frustrating is the fact that the alarm won't sound. It's like the snooze is permanently stuck on. He's had it for 2 days and we've yet to get the alarm to sound.
