Has anyone purchased the Astro Orbitor spinning toy?

In August 2004 my family & I purchased the Astro Orbitor toy at Once Upon A Toy in Downtown Disney Marketplace. When we got home & put battries inside it & turn it on to see it move around it did not work. We tried everything & nothing happened. We were lucky that in December 2004 we were able to retutn it because it had been 5 months since we purchased it but we still had the reciept. Anyway I was wondering for anyone has purchased this in the past was yours able to work?
