This toy arrived for my 5 year old today, together with a Gup-D. On balance, this is the better value of the two.
It lends itself well to imaginary play because both the front and back halves open up - the back revealing a control panel and 'tank' to put rescued animals. You can fit two or three of the characters in the Gup. Much Octo-fun to be had there :-)
It comes with a Captain Barnacles in a red jump suit. I wasn't sure about that because he never wears this in the series, but my kids didn't care. The character toys are nicely proportioned and pose-able and my daughter played with these more than the Gup!
You can wind it up for it to move along on the ground or in the bath but, in fairness, it's a bit big and heavy for this to work properly. It performed quite well in the bath but if you jiggled it around too much, it capsized. I think younger kids may get a little frustrated with this. It was reasonably easy to shake out the water - essential to avoid black mould ruining the toy.
The front hatch comes off quite easily, but is easy to re-attach. Not 100% sure if it will last the distance, but overall the toys seem well made.
At the end of the day, though, a good stab at the essential range of toys for Octo-fans everywhere...

Received the Gup this morning and almost couldn't get my 3 year old out the door to nursery! He Loves it already.
You can wind it up and it travels along the floor. You can also play with it in the bath!
My son loves anythign to do with the Octonauts so this toy was always going to be a winner.
The only disadvantage I can see is that I don't believe it will take long for the lid to get snapped off....we shall see.....

Got one of these for my 3 year old son today. He's a massive Octonauts fan so it's gone down well with him and he has enjoyed playing with the Gup A and Barnacles / Angler Fish. We got him a Kwazi as well but stopped short on anything else as we'd already been quite generous for an ad hoc (non birthday / Chrimbo) gift anyway.
He loves it but I'm not wholly convinced that the price matches up to the durability of the Gup and it will be interesting to see how long it lasts with some mainly water-based play.
[P.S. Didn't actually wait the 1 - 4 months quoted on amazon and picked one up in Toys R Us today. The range is in most big (and little) toy shops now so not sure why the wait is so long on this site...]

Poor quality, not durable, disappointing
Very poor quality. The lid comes off easily and cannot be re-attached by small children. I imagine the tiny hinges will break soon. Read more

MUST HAVE for little octonauts
My son (4 years old) loves his octonauts. The TV-series caption says "expore - rescue - protect" and in my opinion the series is educationally useful. Read more

Gup-A Octonauts
Son just loves the Gup-A. Seems to be well made and his imagination is going wild:)
Only wish it was available in the US but Amazon made it easy to get.

It is a very wonderful toy.
Since it separates without a part breaking with the material which does not break easily, even if parts separate, it can return to origin. Read more
