Menace is our dragon. We all love him. He is snuggled every night and played with every day. He goes on every trip we take. I don't think we could live without Menace, so a replacement body has already been obtained to wait in the closet should Menace ever wear out his current body. We are a Catholic family and we don't usually endorse reincarnation, but in this case we will make an exception. We have given this some thought after six years with the same dragon. Menace still looks pretty good even if he has come down with a slight case of the Velveteen Rabbit Syndrome (he still has all his faculties, but you can tell he's been on many adventures and enjoyed many snuggles). Be careful if purchasing this dragon, he is "bitey" and "naughty" and will refuse to share any treat unless he really loves you in which case you can have a little bit. Also, he does not like to be called a "snuggle dragon" - that will cause a fit of biting and name calling and threats to use his fire. None of us has seen any fire yet, so we think he may be bluffing. He actually snapped at the valet at the Ritz-Carlton Maui one time for patronizing him. Menace is also very sensitive about the fact that he does not have any teeth, although we are rather glad of it because he can be so "bitey." Please only adopt a dragon if you will really love it. We worry about dragons going to homes unwilling to give the love and snuggles and treats and attention needed to feed and care for a dragon.

I recieved an early version of one of these outrageous fellows when i was barely four on christmas..i soon adopted it and based a love for dragons around it. It took place for a teddy bear in my life. Now it sits in my room happily, although I do not play with it as much, being older and all. But I highly recommend this toy for kids. The puppeting vaule is also great because of the moveable arms and great mouth, I had put on many shows for my family. GREAT TOY. Feel free to buy it for some little kid like i was.

As a dragon lover, I bought that dragon puppet about three months ago, and it's just beautiful ! This plump little dragon is really gorgeous, fun to operate, and really sweet to cuddle ; he really deserves to be the very next item on your dragon purchase list, and he's just perfect for any fantasy-related room deco, or as a lovable pillow-pal on your bed... You may pretend to be a dragon-slayer, if you want, but you'll be quickly overwhelmed by how soft and cuddly he is !...

My son was 8 months old and wearing 12-month clothes when he wore it for Halloween. The costume is really cute, but not very durable. The first time he wore it (for 2 hours) was fine. He got some food on it so I had to wash it. When it came out of the wash, part of the felt on the collar had ripped (although I washed on gentle cycle) and the unfinished seams in the sleeves were starting to unravel. After the third wearing, the unfinished seams in the legs were unraveling too. The crotch also started to pull at the seams, probably from my son crawling around. Also, I was never able to get the mask to go on. If you look carefully at the picture, the mask isn't actually attached. I think they faked it as there's no way you can get this on a child that can reach and grab. I debated putting the mask on him when he was sleeping, just to get a picture, but ended up not using it. So, for $15, you can get at least one wearing out of it and some nice pictures as long as you're not too hung up on the mask. I was disappointed in the quality of the costume. The seams weren't even finished and it's not that hard to do.

this fits great for a kid thaths 4,5,6 month then it to hard to put on if he is to big

I both this for my son thats 5 month old and He looks very cute it's very soft and the mask fits great it's great for halloween....

Anybody who reached this page must be a Mario fan who is aware of all the equipment required to use these cards. And for anybody who meets that description, I have only just pre-ordered them but I don't even have to try this new set of cards to tell you -- it'll be even more fun than Star Wars halloween dress-up!

You can bet there will be plenty of fun, creativity and hallenge in this new set, as I found in sets 1 and 2. It's cool to see just what Nintendo's current people can do with a great game like Mario 3. It is fun to see if I can come close to the pros' skill level displayed with the demo cards, and the new levels simply add more value than ever to this great classic game.

What classic Mario games' levels and ideas will Nintendo borrow this time around? What silly idea will this set's 'switch' power-up card come up with?! Or will there be some completely new suit or item Nintendo comes up with this time around? (hint hint to Nintendo's game developers -- INCLUDE A PRINCESS LEIA SUIT FOR MARIO) Will there be a new level that surpasses even that crazy new one with the flying beetles in difficulty?! Waiting to see just how creative Nintendo gets is, well, just under half of the fun of each card set -- the new levels are definitely over half the fun. Even more fun than fat guys like Mario and me in Leia costumes ... alright, no more disturbing visuals...

Almost as fun as fat guys like me and Mario in Leia costumes. Woops, no more disturbing imagery, I promise.

This costume is so cool! I can hardly fit this costume because I'm about 58 inches tall. Me, my sister, and my two brothers got our Star Wars costumes on (from Halloween) and bought "Electronic Tatooine Blasters" and played Star Wars in our backyard! When you're in costume, you feel as if you are the real thing! The blasters helped too!! We also played with the other neigherhood kids. It was a lot of fun! This costume is cool, neat, and really worth [the money]! I've been looking for Princess Leia costumes for weeks, and they are all $30, $35, and the highest I've ever seen, was $70! So I'd suggest you get this costume! Buy it, it's worth it!!

being homer is a great idea for holloween. me and my co-worker dressed up like homer and marge last holloween and we blew everyone else away.

the only downside of this mask is: it is VERY hard to wear: the thick vinyl not only makes you sweaty, but also has a strong smell. in addition, the holes/vents on the mask were so few and small that i had to cut out additional ones in order to breathe. i couldn't wear the mask for more than 5 minutes at a time.

This is great! Be Homer for Haloween! It's pretty light and the reast of the costume can be pulled easily from anyone's closet! This is great for any parent or teen in their later years of Haloweening!

i love the look of this costume and as the evil queen my snow white will shine for next year too

Precious! My sister bought this for my daughter to wear for Halloween last year. It is the prettiest and best made children's costume I've ever seen. The fabric is excellent and it has a real zipper unlike most childrens costume's. It is also very comfortable. My daughter LOVES it and still wears it all the time. It does cost more, but it is way worth it. Can't wait to get Cinderella for Christmas.

i dont like this toy...... i LUV it!!!!!! it is perfect to find things out and the magnifying thing is so cool!!!!!!!! i saw my mommy kissing santa last christmas shhh dont tell... lol! i think u should buy it. ti makes a great present

THIS TOY ROCKS!!! I MEAN IT'S PERFECT FOR UNSUSPECTED WATCHING AND ITS ZOOMY THINGY HAS A FAR RANGE OF MAGNIFICATION ...

I bought this one and the Emperor Penguin puppet for my baby... she loves them both.

The owl is awesome, soft... the head rotates all the way around via a stick inside. I can maneuver the wings and head at the same time with one hand, which really entertains my daughter.

This snowy owl is a part of my plush/puppet collection, and I don't regret the addition. The head can be turned and the wings flapped with your hand, and patches of velcro allow the wings to be folded back realisticly when not spread. The material is very soft, and the beak and talons are leather, not plastic. My only nitpick is that the feet have only three claws, when they should have four. However, this small inaccuracy shouldn't stop anyone from adding it to their collection.

This is one of my favorite owls and favorite puppets. You really need to see it to appreciate just how gorgeous it is. The only drawback that I have found is in trying to fasten the wings back into the "at rest" position. They seem to pull too tightly on the owl. Of course, that could just be on mine.
