Animals Reviews

We bought these action figures for our 3-1/2 year old son two weeks ago, and since then he hasn't let them out of his sight! They will stand on their own with a little work, but depending on how old your child is, he or she may not care. These are especially good for young Scooby fans, as they have no small parts to lose and seem to be quite sturdy. Considering the amount of fun our son has gotten out of these, they are an excellent value for the price.

I got this set the other day and here is what i noticed. the box is very collector friendly it is square with a mystery machine graphic across it with a window in the center. There are no twist ties inside and everything can fit back in well. on the yellow cardboard behind the plastic holding the figures in there are bios of each character with last names addresses and ages (all but shaggy are 16, he's 17 and scooby's 7). The figures are well sculpted and niceyly articulated but there is one glaring problem, the feet on these figures are not made for standing. they are not flat on the bottom (except scooby's). While some figures can be balanced in a standing position with some effort, others it is almost impossible (ironically fred and daphne). So these look great in the package but in my opinion thats about it

this is the cutest thing on earth besides my baby brother!!!

This Aisha plushie is the perfect gift for anybody who wants a special friend to play with! These adorable soft toys respond to users using lights sounds, and even movement. They are originally from the great website www.neopets.com, and now all the characters (not just the aishas) are ready to be taken to their new home!

My kids are huge Scooby fans and love this. I think the game is too short (5 minutes tops) and too easy for them (ages 5 and 8). Based on that, I think it's too much money for what you get. There are better games out there.

Not sure of why this game was so urgently requested by my third grader, I bought it only to find out that it really is fun! The name of the game speaks to avid Scooby and Shaggy fans of the appropriate age bracket but, the game moves quickly, play continues easily and one round leads quickly to another. For the price, its a perfect birthday gift with appeal to little sibs for recognition of the characters. No big challenge but great for kids learning the ins and outs of board game play.

first of all...this is only too loud if you put it on a table or a hard wood floor. this is meant to be put on a bed or rug. then the volume is just right!!!
second...my daughter loves this toy as it combines having a cute pet to play with as well as taking good care of a pet.

i recommend this product to any child with a vivid imagination.

My daughter received this as a gift, and although it's a cute concept, the electronic noises that is makes are so incredibly loud and annoying that I doubt anyone keeps the batteries in the thing longer than two minutes. I think it's actually dangerously loud, in that it may damage a child's hearing if used for a prolonged period of time and, with no volume control, what you hear is what you get.
That said, with the batteries removed, my daughter does enjoy playing with it.

I love the Raggedys and had the red-haired version as a child. This doll holds the same classic charm, but if the makers are marketing it to an "ethnic" consumer, which? It just looks like the same Raggedy with dark hair and eyes. Please educate your vendors to sell more realistic representations to the ever-growing "ethnic" market. Our kids see enough (what? "non-ethnic" representations) on TV. It's important that the dolls actually look ethnic if they are to be called ethnic, but dark hair and eyes do not an "ethnic" doll make. Got a brown-skinned Ann? An Ann with an Afro or braids or dreadlocks? Got an Ann with pretty Asian eyes? I'd buy any of those, but would not confuse my chocolate nieces with a doll that really doesn't look like them. Sorry.

I bought this horse for my 8 month old son, because I thought it was so cute. I sat him on the saddle, and he automatically grabbed hold of its mane and started bouncing up and down!! When you squeeze its ear, it makes a galloping noise, and whinnies. Not only does my son like to "ride"it, but he also loves to lie down with his head on it while he drinks his bottle. It's big, adorable, and durable enough to take the abuse it does.

With Animal Alley, some of the puppets are easier to manipulate than others. This one's arms are easily moved. It is soft and cuddly, like a stuffed animal, and is useful for encouraging language and teaching social skills. If you press on the nose, it barks, which seems pointless to me. The barking noise is pretty quiet. You almost have to put your ear right up to the dog to hear it. Overall, this is a loveable puppet. Beware of other Animal Alley puppets that do not have holes so you can move their arms!

Although this is simply a stuffed animal it has brought so much fun for my daughter! This dog is very durable and soft also.. she lays her head on it at night and looks at books. We renamed the dog "Pinky" and it is a great pet for little ones!

I live in Lawrenceburg, KY where the temp. on Halloween can be 80 or 50. This was a great find. It was thin enought, which I wanted, that you can dress you child in something else underneath based on the weather. It fit well and you could easily trim the bottom hem with scissors. I purchased the black and orange striped socks from Baby Gap and the outfit looked great! The hat is seperate so that it doesn't cover the kid's neck which is great for a small baby. My son was almost 8 months old last year when I used this and he is slim/tall child. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone.

If your looking for a fun, durable horse this is the one for you! The pose its in is just great, and wonderful for childs imagintion to explore! But, this defently is an overly priced breyer horse that isn't worth it, when you could just buy Hidalgo, or Cigar for cheaper.
