Pretend Play Reviews

Well i really like this costume. But i must disagreed with hound562 for making such a bad remark. First of all the costume does look like yugi uniform because the costume is taking straight from the anime and not the manga. So i must figure hound562 is confuse about that. Anyway I'm happy with the costume so just buy it right now!!!

Ok, first of all I give the mask one star and the rest of the costume low marks. First of all the costume of this is suppose to look like yugi from Yu-gi-oh, but this costume does not even have the same outfit Yugi wears on the show, on the show his out fit is blue, and the shirt is white. Yugi on the show does not have a cape and he is not supose to be a superhero, he's supose to be a school kid who plays cards. I wouldn't buy this costume, you or your child can make the costume better for the cost of this.

This custume is grate for kids....

This is a lovely costume, but the sizing is quite deceptive on the site. Be sure to order size small for ages 3-4 (not 4-6) and size medium for ages 5-7 (not 8-10), etc.

This costume is so cute!! Especially for those chilly evening Trick or Treat nights in Ohio. Thank you!

BEWARE OF CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!

I bought this model several months in advance of giving to my son. We opened the package to find one of the tracks was broken, appears to be dry rot. Because this is the last item to install, we put the remainder together and had a good time working together.

ToysRUs.com won't do anything because the item was purchased more than 30 days ago. Was given ToysRUs 800#. Called them, but they won't do anything. Suggested that the model be placed in the original packaging and take to the store with a receipt. Was advised that they 'might' exchange or refund the item.

Took model to the store, they refuse to assist. It was not purchased from brick & mortar store, was purchased more than 30 days ago.

Now I have a very disappointed 6yr old boy with a broken model, and no one at Toys R Us will do anything to assist.

This model is a lot of fun to build -- easy enough for younger kids, but interesting enough for older kids. The end result, however, is a model and not so much a toy. The tread does move, but it slips off very easily. The dozer's front lifts and lowers, but isn't designed to actually push or pick things up. For a model, though, it's quite sturdy.

The model can be painted, as well.

The only drawback is that each of these kits comes with a screwdriver, so your collection of screwdrivers grows as you buy new models.

We purchased the farm and several farm accessories for our son, and he's absolutely thrilled with all of it. The attention to detail is what fascinates him most, and we've spent hours watching him pretend to plant gardens, harvest, care for cows, sell eggs, and raise rabbits. While it takes some time to assemble, it wasn't difficult and stays together as long as we keep it on a table or other flat surface. Playmobil and carpet don't mix well. Still, we're very happy with the purchase and our son's enjoyment of his farm. The educational value has been enormous to us since it's really encouraged J. to learn about real farms. We're taking a field trip next week to the university's argiculture department, and he's just so excited about the world of farming these days.

This farm is fairly expensive, and we got it as the major xmas present for our son. I am not very happy with it, and my son plays with it occasionally, but it definitely isn't his favorite. Here are my gripes: 1) Very difficult to put together, which would be okay if it stayed together, but 2) It falls apart easily. So, our main activity with his toy is that my son tries to play with it, and ends up with the barn in a number of pieces, and then he calls me to help him put it back together. 3) It could use a few more animals. For the price, they could have tossed in some chickens, maybe.

i think this is totally fun. my daughter is a litle young to get into the whole styling of the hair, but i sure had a blast. true, the hair doesnt crimp for crap, but you can make some pretty rad spirals. i also liked that the clothes were real fabric-they were more stylish and trendy that way, even tho they dont hold up to the wear and tear as well. polly is an all around great toy. my daughter is only three, and we have been buying polly for almost a year now. i found that even f she has a bit of trouble dresing them here and there, she is alot les frustrated than trying to dress a barbie at this age. they are like an easier version of barbie. and we actually havent lost any pieces, because i bought a plastic chest of drawers rigth away with my first polly purchase, just because i saw that coming.

i bought this toy with my money and i think it was a waste. her clothes slip off and the crimper does not even work. i played with this toy 5 times!

When set up, this train combined with the Builder Set makes an amazing train that my little nephews had hours of fun playing with. The colorful pieces are easy to attach and the fun part is it's creative and the kids can put the pieces anywhere on the blocks. I read the review below that complained that the Builder Set was not included (it does clearly state above that you need to "combine this set with the Builder Set") When you get the right pieces, it really works great.

What a disappointment. The pictures for the SquashBlox items all mention "theme kit". "Kit" making you think you have everything you need. They show children happily playing wiht their train, castle or animal. What they don't clearly show is that you are only purchasing the small accessory pieces, not the fact that you need to purchase the "builder's kit" which is not available as I can tell on amazon. I was so embarassed after sending this train kit to a friend to find out he only recieved soft wheels and other small parts, not the big panels needed to put it together. Do not waste your money or time.

For toys to be fun they have to be accessable to children to create "play space." This, like most Playmobil sets, has a lot of little pieces that tend to wander off. We've tried plastic containers to keep the pieces together -- but they always seem to get lost in the BIG toy box. Then when they do want to play, they can't find all of the pieces. Unlike some other Playmobil sets, this one lacks a place to put all of the little pieces together and put it up on the shelf. That said, the pieces are sturdy and the kids enjoy playing when they can find them.

Rabbits are adorable - especially to children - and this hutch, bunnies and set of kids is adorable - but it sends a really bad message to kids on rearing rabbits.

It is a common practice for people to buy rabbits for their children (especially during Easter), only to put them in a hutch outside and just feed them and that's it.

The chickenwire floor of a hutch his very hard on a rabbit's feet. They do not have padding like a dog, so they will often get sores on their feet.

Rabbits can also literally scare to death - so it is sometimes a neighborhood cat or raccoon that will try to get into the hutch that will frighten the bunny right into a heart attack.

Rabbits are very social, clean animals and quickly learn to be litter trained. If a pet is kept outside, they don't realize they are pets - members of the family. My rabbit stays indoors with me - safe from predators and from the heat (many rabbits kept in hutches will die of heat stroke in the summer).

He stays in a comforable cage when I'm not home - with litter box, wool bed, rack of Timothy hay and a water dispenser. When I am home, he plays with my dogs and runs back to his cage when he needs to use the litter box.

For a toy to be educational, it needs to have something new to teach kids, not the same old hillbilly ways of "caring" for rabbits. A hutch is great if you are raising your rabbits for food and/or fur - but I doubt that is what is the intended message of this toy. Rabbits are keenly intelligent and need exercise - rabbits kept in a hutch get bored, sometimes frightened and exposed to the elements. Rabbits in the wild play, feed and live in complicated networks of underground dens called warrens, where they relax and regulate their body temperatures.

Don't teach your kids that this is the way responsible pet owners care for rabbits. It's just cruel.

I bought this to go with my daughter's playmobile "123" house. She likes to play with these bunnies and sunflowers better than the house! All parts of this set come apart: the flowers from their stalk, the stalks from the dirt, the ribbons from the straw hats, the straw hats from the girls' heads... The bunnies are cute and come with little dishes for feeding and a little fenched in area. Also, the bunny cage is well made with little lattice doors that open and shut easily. Of course, the whole cage comes apart, too. THe set comes with two girls who have hands, arms and legs that move. The hands can also latch on to the fence pieces.

I love ALL of the playmobile sets and can't wait to buy more. The only problem is how to store them so the little parts don't get lost. For now, it's a tupperware thing, but I'd love to see the company come up with some nicer storage options.

I bought this toy for my daughter, she loves Polly! However it is very difficult to put together and doesn't stay together. I took it back and got a new one and have the same problem. If it would stay together she would probably love it...

I love this whole set. It is really cool. I love that there are haired pollys! Thank you for making them! I love this toy because the polly rides in a log! How cool is that! I love pollys. I love how you can dress them! Thanks for making them!I Love your vibrant colors!

This toy is cool because my Pollys can go on it and it's a log ride. I also like the car they ride in. But when they go down the car lands on the floor with a bang and tips over. Otherwise it's a pretty cool toy and a great addition to Polly World.
