Nice doll, but the voice is not even close

Pretty disappointed in this product.  My 3 year old received it as a birthday gift and loves everything ponies but wasn't into this toy.  She noticed the voice is way off, for those who watch the show she sounds more like Princess Cadence than anyone and even that's a stretch.  Kind of hard to believe they wouldn't record the voice actress for this or just use existing clips from the shows.  If you can get past the voice itself the things the toy says is nothing like what Twilight says in the shows.

Its a great idea and the doll itself is nice but if you want to feature it as a talking toy you should at least get the voice right.

I got this for my six-year-old.  The doll has very stiff joints.  She is afraid to bend the arms and legs because she thinks they will break.  She has the Lark Beatrix doll, whose leg within weeks of getting it.  She still plays with it, with a duct tape "cast" holding the leg on at the knee.  I don't really know why I bought these dolls for my child, except that she really wanted them, and she loved the idea of the all girl rock band.  I really dislike the way the doll looks, with it's gigantic head and minuscule feet.  I mean, it's head is about the size of a grapefruit, and it's clothes and shoes are too small for a Barbie doll.  It's ridiculous.  I'm giving it three stars because it's not my doll, it's hers.  And she likes it.

I bought this doll for my 3 year old daughter.  She saw this doll at the store and wouldn't stop playing with it.  It was all she talked about before Christmas.  I was so excited to give it to her; however, once we opened the doll we were a little disappointed.  The dolls voice is a little choppy at times especially when she talks while raising her arms.  My daughter also gets bored with the doll quickly.  She does like the food and milk she comes with and she likes all of the really cute things the doll says.  I just purchased the Play All Day Playset(for $9.99 not $39.99) for her birthday in hopes that she will find the doll a lot more fun.  I didn't pay more than $24 for the doll and so for the price I am not totally unhappy.  I definitely wouldn't pay full price.

After months of my 5 year old daughter watching the commercials for this toy, "the potty doll" as she calls it was at the top of her Christmas list. When she got this doll for Christmas, she loved it...for about 10 minutes. It is an adorable doll, it is very cute to watch but for a true doll lover(she has about 40 dolls) it just didn't have much to offer. It is hard to dress, it is hard to find clothes to fit it and she doesnt sit well on the potty either. I think it is a cute interactive toy but as a baby doll that will provide long play time, its not very good. Dont get me wrong, the doll is adorable, and fun but it did not hold my daughters attention for very long. We also got her a cabbage patch doll and she plays with it everyday and sleeps with it every night.

I like the flexibility of the doll, but the downside is the hair. It's so coarse you can hardly comb. When you do, the hair falls off. It's so tangled I thought of cutting off the hair.

This doll does not have a really pretty face and the American edition dolls do not look like picture.  I saw the original prototypes for these dolls (which were darling) and the production dolls don't quite live up to expectations. Cheap wig.

I'm told by buyers that the European edition of this doll looked different but I haven't seen it for sale anywhere.

I bought this for my daughter after reading all of the glowing reviews about how wonderful the Only Hearts Club dolls are.  My daughter loves dolls and I have to admit, so do I!  I was fairly disappointed with this doll.

First off, the packaging was a bit cheesy and the ties used to hold the doll to the packaging were difficult to remove.  But, I'm willing to overlook things like that...that is until I tried to remove the doll's headpiece and found that there are threads holding it in that are impossible to remove.

Secondly, the doll is very lightweight and doesn't feel very sturdy...she is much smaller than I expected.  Everything but her head is covered in this strange felted fabric that makes it difficult to get her small clothes on and off.  I never appreciated Barbie's plastic epidermis until now.  I don't know how anything but fabric shoes would work on this doll.

Third, her outfit feels like it won't last long.  The tulle is scratchy and the sparkles end up everywhere.  The little dog looks like it was made by a 1st-grader.

I guess the nicest thing about this doll is her hair, which as any doll-lover knows is crucial to a doll's longevity, but I don't see this being a doll that will be passed-on to other generations.

Again, I really wanted to like this doll as an alternative to Barbie, but I guess we'll keep searching and see what we can come up with!

The doll is actually adorable, however within minutes of being taken out of the box (and handled gently) the head popped off! We couldn't even reattach it because the plastic connector is less than 1/8 of an inch in diameter and is down inside a hole in the torso. You can see it but you can't access it to try to reattach it. I looked on Disneystore website and saw at least 20 reviews of this happening to others- and it happened to the dolls they replaced them with, too. So unfortunately this cute doll is a dud unless you plan to keep it inside the box and never open it. That's not what my Tinker Bell fan had in mind.

My baby absolutely loves Chica so when I saw this plush doll I just had to buy it for her.  The only thing I do not like about this doll is the squeak.  It really does feel and sound like a cheap dog toy squeak.  Aside from that, it's an okay doll.

My daughter really wanted this doll after seeing the commercial so I broke down and ordered it for her birthday. When it came in the mail I was soooo disappointed. The doll is really really small - probably only about 4 inches tall and has disproportionately large head. When my daughter opened it on her birthday she took one look at it and put it down. She did not even want to play with it! The only plus I can think of is that I love the hairstyle of the doll. Other than that this purchase was a bust. Let the buyer beware.

I got the baby alive Hispanic doll for my daughter for Christmas. I opted for the Hispanic doll becuase I thought my daughter would learn a bit of the two languages as we speak French primarily in our home. I must have received a broken doll because our doll is nothing like the description. She does not speak English at all...you can press her bracelet a million times and no English. And when she does speak, her English is slurred and unintelligible. We have contacted Amazon several times and have had them decline a return. After 2 months, we are still wiating for her to eat and fall asleep. VERY DISAPPOINTING! Would not recommend at all!!! The reason that this rating received one star is because my daughter loves her death even though she does nothing.

This doll is very cute and life like. She just doesn't work well.  Repeats say my name a lot. Rarely recognizes my daughter as mommy. Say batteries are low often even though fresh batteries are in. She has gone hay wire several times...as her facial features moved uncontrollably with out cause having to reset her which takes about 15 minutes to do each time. Wouldn't recommend taking a chance spending the money. My daughter hasn't touched her since day 2!!

I really was looking forward to having a Melody doll, and was sorely disappointed in her once she was out. First, in the EAH webisodes Melody is a shorter character, but this doll has the body mold of an average sized EAH doll (I'm really big on show to doll accuracy). Second, Mattel has gotten really cheap when it comes to the EAH doll's clothes. If this had been a first addition doll (Apple, Raven, Maddie) the doll would have come with a skirt, shirt and vest that were all separate pieces. Melody came with an outfit that is one solid piece. The vest is sewn to the shirt front and the skirt in sewn into the vest/shirt combo. I would also like to point out that in the webisodes Melody wears tights, she doesn't have black swirls painted on her leg. Third, I really don't care for this doll's face mold. In the webisodes she has this cute round face with big brown eyes, and this doll has neither of those things. The dolls face is way to sculpted, she almost looks like a monster high doll, and her eyes are painted purple instead of brown. I miss the round faces of the original dolls. The only upside to this doll is she come with some really cute accessories; a belt with music notes, black clunky boots, and a very punk type of necklace and bracelet. A major hazard to buying online is the dreaded wonky face paint, but this doll came with beautifully painted features, which is why she has a tree star rating instead of a two star rating.

this is a rubber toy, not soft, and the voice is grating and artificial.  The one you're looking for is probably "Tumblin Stuart"

My granddaughter was delighted - and I admit this is a doll that is very pretty in the face.  She moves a lot, thank to all of her joints, but she seems a bit on the under-accessorized side.  She can't be posed to stand and her clothes on top are actually part of the plastic mold.  She's a sweet pretty thing but not produced to last.  We do like the shoes.

Possibly the worst Barbie we have ever purchased. The doll isn't capable of anything except standing (of course not on its own) and singing a short clip of a song over and over. The legs cannot move at all, and anytime the arms move it sings so the song gets extremely annoying very quickly! My daughter picked this as her prize for good grades and was terribly disappointed!!! I'm not sure why they even made her this way, to me it makes absolutely no sense. It is a cool function how the dress can change, but they should have copied their Princess and the Popstar dolls and made the dolls more playable. That doll did all the same things as this one, except the legs could move and the arms could be played with without the song playing, the song was longer, and we could stop it by pushing the button. I really wish we could return it, but unfortunately that's not possible once it's opened.

It's a really cute dollhouse, but as I've read in other reviews, the sound is SO muffled you can barely hear it.  The lights only work maybe one out of five times.  The stairs don't stay attached (even when clicked into place).  My daughter (2 1/2) loves the house, but she keeps telling me it needs new batteries... because she can't hear it.  If the sound and lights worked, I'd give it 4 stars.  If it came with an additional Disney character, like Mickey or Daisy, I'd give it 5.
