Product Description
Is there a doctor in the house' Poor Homer Simpson isn't feeling very well, so you'd better operate quick! His comical ailments must be carefully removed or he will die laughing. From bowler's thumb to trick knees, Homer's got lots of complaints to keep lucky physicians busy. Even better, Homer talks through his operations so he'll keep you in stitches if you set off the buzzer! Requires 2 "AA" batteries (not included).
Editorial Review
This Homer Simpson version of the fabulously fun Operation game is sure to have players young and old in stitches (well, not literally, we hope). Homer is laid out on the table and amateur surgeons must take turns to operate on Homer and remove a part from his "funatomy" as directed by the playing cards. Homer's ailments are unique and range from Bowler's Thumb, where surgeons must withdraw a bowling pin from his digit, to Pot Belly, where a saucepot is lodged in his gut. A successful extraction earns the surgeon a significant chunk of change. However, if doctors accidentally brush the tweezers against the metal edge during surgery, a buzzer goes off and Homer's nose lights up as he screams or says one of several trademark phrases, such as "Doh!" or "This is not good!" That's when the big guns are called in. The player holding the Specialist card for that operation gets to attempt the procedure again—but this time for double the cash. When all of Homer's organs have been removed, the doctor hoarding the most money is declared the winner. This Operation game is for one or more players and uses four "AAA" batteries (not included). --Cristina Vaamonde

 My Nieces Love This Game December 27, 2008
Jennifer Barthe (Boston, MA)
I bought this game for an 8 and 11 year old. They love to play it but unfortunately have lost most of the pieces. Perhaps the pieces could have been made a bit bigger, but then that would take away some of the fun.
great game for the family April 28, 2008
booklover (USA)
This is a great family game. The Simpson version really cracks my daughter up, and my husband and I have fun playing it with her. It's a good game for kids for learning to be steady and to increase hand-eye coordination. Homer says some funny "Homer-ess" kinds of comments. Definitely a hit with kids.
 Impossible to play but fun to listen to July 20, 2007
G. Wade (Brush Prairie, Wa United States)
We were so disappointed when we brought this home from the store - my childhood memories of playing Operation were crushed. The pieces are impossible to remove with the tongs! & although the Homer voice is funny, it becomes extremely frustrating to even the most steadiest of 'doctors'. My children will pull the game out & try to play but within minutes they are nearly swearing because it is so hard to get the pieces. If it wasn't for the funny voice, this would be a complete waste of money!
 For younger Simpson fans January 11, 2007

We bought this game for our grandsons (11 and 8 yrs). The whole family are huge Simpson fans and they collect all Simpson games. The game was OK, but only held their interest for an hour or so and I doubt that it will ever be used very much. It was way too simple for kids their ages, but I believe younger children might enjoy it more.
Not for 2 year olds! October 25, 2006

My son got this for his birthday when he turned 4. He is actually very good at it. It helps him gain better control with his fine motor skills.
Unfortunately, my 2 year old daughter thought it looked like fun too. Instead of trying to play the game as it is intended, she decided to chew on the little body part pieces.
The game is rated for older children, but 4 seems like an ok age to start. Just beware of getting this game if you have smaller children around who may try to hijack the pieces and eat them. They dont fit in the little slots very well once they are chewed up.
