is the castle an OK toy?

I really wanted to like this toy, but it's just not that great. The figures are really cute, but the structure itself is very flimsy and collapses with any amount of play. It's only okay.

Yes, my great-grand daughter loved it. It lights up, and she's loves Disney Frozen, so she was very happy to get it for her birthday! So far I had only seen 2 smaller castles like this. One, Anna's and one Elsa's. This castle was almost more expensive but it was larger than Anna's. The kids can put it in the car and take it with them to play with. I would recommend it.

Yes, it is perfect size for the figures and it is made well, it closes up and you can take it with you to play at someone else house. My daughter loves it!

Yes. It is cute. I do think it is a bit pricey for what you are getting, but right now my daughter wants and plays with everything Frozen. It is very similar to any of the other magic clip dollhouses except that it does have a light up feature which gives it a little more appeal.

My 4 year old seems to enjoy it. Its not the greatest toy as far as quality, but I would buy it again because she loves frozen and she plays with the little dolls so its a nice addition.

After a few tries it did stay together. Anna's castle was so much better than Elsa's ice castle which was harder to keep together and harder to have the figures stay in place. It was a little frustrating, but my 4-year old granddaughter still enjoyed playing with it. I guess she wasn't a particular as me about everything staying in place.

Overall we have been happy with this house. The fences tend to fall off, etc. but no more than other toys we have. It depends how steady a hand your little one has or if you move the house around to another room. We don't really have any complaints about this. I love the cute characters, the accessories, etc.

Not at all. I bought this for my daughter when she was 3. She's 6 now and still enjoys it!

I think it's a good size set. My son only has this set and has enough to keep entertained.

It depends on the child. Although the set is adorable, it is limited in terms of figures. It only comes with Mike and his horse. If your child is good at combining different toys in imaginative play (adding in other characters from other sets), he will probably still enjoy this set. My 5-yr-old still likes it but he uses knights from a different set in order to create stories.

We bought the Castle for our grandson last month, age 7, also the set of Good and Bad Knights. A cousin gave him the battering ram. For Christmas, he is getting the catapult, and separate knight sets with the eagle, griffin, lion, and wolf. Thought the Ogre, with his size, might encourage too much overkill on the part of the participants and actually destroy the castle, so am not getting that.

Nothing really fits 'in' the castle- the turrets are narrow. When the castle is closed there is floor space for furniture, but because the dungeon and drawbridge and all are pretty detailed, all my son needs is the little knights and dragons (we bought the TOOB ones).

The wood furniture set does not fit well in the castle, but my granddaughter still loves playing with the furniture in the "courtyard" (in front of the castle). I feel it was money well spent.

It's well made. If she is too energetic and would rock too hard, that might be a problem. My grandson did that at age 2, he needed to be watched. He still uses it today and I watch him. He's learned to be gentle. I guess all children need watching to see how they will use the toy. I find it great!

The advertise for boys because usually it is boys that play with knights, dragons and monsters. If a little girl is interested in those subjects then it would be fine for them. I'm sure a knight, princess and dragons would be fine. It is a quality product and I would recommend it for any child who wants a castle.

Absolutely not! The one year olds that I purchased them for (3) loved it instantly. I think they responded to the color, the sound, and the buttons. It will be a toy they will play with for years...

It's is appropriate for 19 year old. Nothing like a toy. It has realistic stuff inside, as if taken right off the set of the movie.

My 4 year old nephew received this for Christmas and we have not had any problems with it. He is not remotely gentle on things either and likes to crash it into walls. Obviously it is a toy, it is not a high end model so I can't guarantee that you won't have any problems but like I said, so far it has held up.

This particular one is not, but it is an amazing toy and worth owning. Careful if you have young children in the house, there are lots and lots of parts to choke on.

Honestly, I would say so. My 4 year old lost interest in a short time. Goes back to it every so often, but not much.

5 year old has been playing on it for quite some time now . He has never complained. So i would say NO
