Seriously, why is this a "Boys" set? My daughter loves space, watches Cosmos, and has her room decorated in rockets and stars.

Because the vast majority of purchases and/or searches are going to be done by parents searching for their sons. Nothing wrong with catering to the market you are serving. If your daughter likes stuff like this, that's fine but it doesn't make it typical. Business cater to large markets and not each particular individual. Glad they put "boys" since that is what I was searching for.

I agree wholeheartedly! Too much of that pink and hearts stuff going on out there. Got them for my grandson because He likes space stuff, but my granddaughter likes them too.

I know it's silly, my son changed his favourite color from purple to red because of the sexuality of colors his classmates taught him.

I guess just because it's blue (shoulder shrug) it would work in any room. I love it

It's not. Don't let one simple word ruin your day or prevent a purchase that might make your daughter very happy to own.Get past it and move on. You can do it. I believe in you.My child still LOVES this bed set and we bought it last Christmas.The padding had stayed in place very well in the comforter afterapprox. a wash each month or so which was the only valid concern. Overall the set has held up great and we are still using it.

I don't know since it was for my grandson. I would assume that it is since there doesn't appear to be a girl version.

when kids are at the age that they really want to learn about the stars and are fairly willing to put in the time to get answers on the subject. curiosity is an interesting thing with them. I'm not being sarcastic or anything like that.

its very neutral. the set is basic and isnt directed towards a boy or girl. the legos are standard Lego primary colors.

You can have a boy or a girl and the adventures are not gender specific. The clothing items have both boys and girls clothing, although it might be a little bit more female orientated. That said, I think it is a great game for either gender.

I wholeheartedly agree toy should be gender neutral. I was considering this as a gift to a boy who requested it and even he was apprehensive that it was solely meant for girls so I decided to pass. I suspected he might be teased. Also, almost all reviews were from people who bought for girls.

Good question... I've pulled up some specs. Other than paint color and other decorative elements, I find no difference between the 'boys' and 'girls' models.

I should think so. We call her a 'she' but that is because I am mother to three boys, so like them to at least have a girl doll! So tired of pink = girls, blue = boys. Wish toys could be truly unisex.

I agree. All the marketing adds that say "what every little boy should have" is wrong! What about little girls wholike to help their mom/dad build/repair things? Pink or blue isn't necessary - perhaps green or tan would be fine.

Yes! My 6 yr.old nephew plays with it along with my daughter every time he visits. The colors are unisex, so it can appeal to both sexes.

Is it your contention that boys won't enjoy it? I didn't see where it said "girls will hate this toy." You are reading an awful lot into it.

Nerf makes the Blazin Bow Blaster that has a more boyish look to it. It's not exactly the same, but similar. Perhaps they made the Rebelle bow because so many young girls are watching Brave and the Hunger Games Series and are inspired by bow wielding girls. I am quite pleased that, for once, my daughter has a weapon style toy that her brother thinks is cool. Usually, she the one asking why there aren't any "cool" toys made just for girls.

The colors are more traditionally "girl" colors, but if your son likes all colors and doesn't care about "boy or girl" colors or designs, he will love it :)

It is definetly a little boy... :-) I was not so sure about how my daughter would react to that, but to be honest it has taught her a lesson ln baby boys and baby girls. She is 11 years old in the past 2 years all I have heard from her is how she is going to have a daycare when she grows up. She absolutely loves Zeb. He has been probably the most taken care "toy" she has ever had. :-)

I think he may be the perfect age- it actually engages their minds with lots of engineering concepts. One of our magnet schools (science, engineering,technology) uses this set in one of its units. It especially challenges if you let them create their own design after they are familiar with the ones in the booklet. Start with adult help, then let child get creative!

Sorry it's taken so long for me to answer this for you. I would not purchase this item for a boy - I think it's girly because it is pink.

I bought my daughter one and she is a girl. I am sure it was just a mistake that theirs turned out to be a boy!
