The description seems to say that you can dial out on the toy, but it connects via Bluetooth to the mobile device to do so:

"Connects to your mobile device with Bluetooth® wireless technology to make and receive calls through your existing phone plan—no additional line required (Compatible with IOS and Android™ devices)"

Other than it making horrible noises, is there anything you’d want less on a kids toy?

Calling random people doesn’t seem like something that’s a good idea.

It isn’t for kids. It says so right on the page.
I’ve just re-read it and can’t see that it does. Reading it with that in mind however makes it obviously correct.

The closest I could find to it saying that was the customer questions, one of which was answered with, “This one is intended for adult collectors.”
