What can I say, this was a good price. But, you get what you pay for. DO NOT buy this for an older child. I bought this for my 8 yo, and he loves it, but the hat does NOT fit. I put it on my 2 yo, just to see, it fits him like a charm. The whip is kind of cheap, made of foam material, but, I didn't pay much for it, so I rally cant complain. Besides, my so likes it, and that was what i was hoping for.
