Beautiful Toy, and a Creature of Legend

This was sent quickly, and well-packed.  I very much admire ravens (and all members of that bird group).  They are intelligent, resourceful birds, and it is easy to see why they play such a narrative/symbolic part in the stories/religions of so many native people.  I greatly liked the review by a Native
(North) American woman who described this "toy" raven as meaningful in her People's culture, and added that when her child was playing with the
plush bird at home and squeezing it to make it caw, a real raven was attracted to the sound and flew down to investigate!  The bird's sound is that
realistic!  I'm very pleased with the raven, and with Wild Republic.

It's a great toy, I use it with a harness as a strap on. You may need a larger than average O ring for it if you are using it with a harness as I struggled fitting my "normal" sized O ring over and down the shaft. this has been my go to, even if the size prevents me from using all of it. The colors are beautiful, the lavender/purple/creamy white mixture is stunning and the quality is top notch. There's just enough bend to it but still feels very solid while wearing it. If you're looking to buy a toy that will last this (or the slightly less thick Flurry 02 also made by Tantus) are great buys.

What is there to say about Minecraft at this point? It's a phenomenon, and Mojang did a great job making sure their game got toys that kids would love. Mini plush animals and creatures, cardboard box heads, foam swords and pickaxes, and of course the action figures. As nice as it is to have a Steve, Creeper or Enderman, you gotta have some animals to go along with them! My daughter adores this set, and if she wrote reviews, she'd give it 5 stars as well. Some have mentioned that the price is high for six figures, but I actually think it's priced just right, provided you're getting this at regular retail or less. If it's anything more, shop around!

All six figures in this set look perfect, with the Minecraft-y markings of little squares here and there on their bodies to add some detail. Even the sheep, who could have been left completely white, and not many would've noticed, has a mixture of white and cream colored wool. Each figure is well-made, and will have a hard time breaking. All of the joints are sturdy and none of the figures we got had any loose limbs or anything.

Each of the figures is articulated differently, due to their different body types. The chicken can rotate its face, and you can move the wings up and down. Next is the ocelot, who can move his head around, and its tail is on a ball joint so you can adjust it. The tame wolf can move his head around, his legs can move forward and back, and his tail moves from side to side. As for the pig, its head moves around, and its legs move differently- the front legs move like the wolf's, but the back legs can move forward, so you can get it in a sitting position.

The sheep was my favorite of the bunch because of how they designed the legs. Instead of being able to move them around, the legs actually go up into its body a little bit, kind of like a pogo stick. I've been playing the game for a while, and haven't seen a sheep bound around yet, but man is it funny seeing this little sheep figure do that. Finally, there's the cow, who just like the others, can move its head around, and the legs all move forward and back.

These toys would make excellent birthday cake toppers, or you could use the whole box as a perfect stocking stuffer in a few months for "the holidays". Either way, if your child or grown-up-fan-of-Minecraft doesn't have this set, get it for them without worry. They'll be happier than a villager who just traded an emerald for 20 pieces of wheat.

I got this dragon for my two year old. It is exquisite. The craftsmanship on it is simply beautiful. The attention to detail makes this dragon stand out. He has a green, scaly, shiny body. His belly is stripy gold. He has green eyes and his mouth has four realistic feeling fangs. The great thing about the fangs is that they are a softer plastic so when you play with the dragon it won't hurt another person if the person wearing the dragon clamps the mouth down on someone else. The dragon has a bright red pointy tongue that sticks out. The dragon's wings stay up in the air by wire hidden inside the dragon, he also has two front legs and a pointy tail. The material on the dragon is soft and thick.

This dragon is easy to put on and comfortable to wear. My two year old (now three) easily put it on his hand and it is big enough to fit adult hands easily too. My son happily runs around the house with this dragon puppet on his hand, flying it through the air. We make it a special treat for birthdays and holidays to get our kids a new puppet from this manufacturer. We prefer not to get the kids stuffed animals because puppets serve two purposes: they are soft and cuddly like a stuffed animal but are also intricately designed puppets that really inspire a child's imagination. I recommend this dragon highly and the manufacturer of this puppet for their amazing and imagination inspiring puppets!

Santa decided to bring our 4yr old daughter a 'classic toy' this year ... the Giddy-up Fantasy Pink Unicorn head on a stick. Fantastic. It was a hit. The plush head is well manufactured; the left and right ears have push button sound-effect of galloping noises and 'magic sprinkles' as my daughter calls it. The control straps have a velcro breakaway so that the child's head/neck won't get caught if they fall.  The stick is sturdy and has a rubber end cap so it won't scratch most surfaces. (we have hardwood, and it left slight streaks, but wipes off easily with a quick rub of a sock or towel).  It's a nice addition to her collection of princess dresses and tiaras for imaginative play.

Well, overall this is a great toy. It has areas for more figures (sold sep.) and comes with a "Exodina" figure, aswell as 10 "Holo-Tile" cards which, when held in sunlight, views a 3d- animation of the monster. ;)

An amazing looking figure, this guy belongs in any collection! The details are great, and the cloak, though fiddly, is a really sinister touch. It has a lot of small, fragile looking and detachable parts though, so I would not recommend this for younger children, who will certainly break it. As a collector, this is certainly a grand figure.

Half the time I look at this and go, what the heck was I thinking paying $10 for a toy fox?
It's a beautiful wooden toy fox. My two year old loves it 50% of the time. I love it 100% of the time. I will not kid myself that I bought it entirely for her. She's just as happy with plastic. I'm the one who wants the toy room full of aesthetically pleasing wooden toys (incidentally fewer toys, because the wood are expensive).

It has rounded edges, a whimsical Ostheimer-like paint job, and is made of extremely lightweight but durable wood which has meant fewer injuries and table denting without broken pieces. This separates it from other similar wooden toy foxes.

This is a great collectible, more so than a toy; and certainly worth more than the double figures most of us originally paid when it came out. The one rather sad thing is that the motor is very loud; I am not sure if it would be durable under normal play use. It is a bit confusing because the castle was antiqued, and after some time, the paint looks as if it is dusty; but it is just the antiquing. However, I think it is a great collectible, very beautiful and I hope to always keep one in my family.

I admit it -- I bought this figure simply because it turns into a dragon.  I haven't even seen "Transformers: Cybertron," but seeing as I love Transformers and have a soft spot for dragons, a Transformer that turns into a dragon was a must-own for me.  I shelled out more cash than I care to mention to acquire one at a convention (though still not quite as much as Amazon is asking for...), and while this figure does have its flaws, I don't regret my purchase in the least, as it's a good figure for collectors and kids alike.

Scourge is a colorful figure, blending dark silver-brown with vivid orange, red, yellow, and purple for a striking appearance.  The facial coloring in particular is beautiful, as is the shading on the wingtips.  The molding is excellent, with great attention to detail, and unlike a lot of beast-mode TFs who look stunning in animal form but ugly in robot form, Scourge looks intimidating and excellent in both forms.  And if you're buying him for kids... he's nicely chunky and durable, without a lot of small parts that can get lost or break during play.  As a bonus, his tail detaches to form an axe, his cyber key function allows two smaller heads to spring forth in a special attack (though these can also be popped up manually), and with an added battery he can roar!

Scourge does have his drawbacks, however.  He's a bit top-heavy, meaning he's in danger of falling over on a display shelf if wobbled too much.  His transformation is ridiculously easy, simply consisting of standing him on his hind legs, flipping his dragon head down to his chest, and flipping his robot head up.  This is great for young kids, but something of a disappointment for people who enjoy a challenging transformation.  And his articulation is very limited for a figure of his size.  Don't expect to be able to make a lot of epic poses for him...

Despite the drawbacks, this is an awesome figure, and I don't regret him in the least.  Probably a pricey figure to buy a child, but a nice addition to one's collection, and one that will stand up for years to come.

This figurine is absolutely adorable. It's a bit pricey for what it is, but I couldn't handle how nice it looked. It's not really a toy to be played with--its only moving part is the head can turn, and sometimes its balance standing is questionable, but it's more a "to be seen and not touched" kind of thing. This figurine is of good quality, pretty durable. My only complaint is the price.

I got this toy the day they became available in stores, and I am still enamored with it, even though I am 20-years-old. I love the high detail of every part of this toy, including the accessories. He looks amazingly accurate as Orlando Bloom portraying our beloved Legolas. Also, he is very easy to maneuver. I got him to stand with his bow at ready, arrow loaded. The arrows shoot pretty far too, with decent accuracy! The dagger-slashing action is amusing when you squeeze his legs, but I must admit, just the sheer quality and detail of him amazes me most. This toy actually inspired one of my friends to read The Lord of the Rings, so it is educational.

First off, this stuffie is HUGE. The height and length,, combined with the antlers makes for a truly massive figure. The construction seems solid, though I can easily see the neck bending over time due to the weight of the antlers.
Overall, it's an excellent representation of the character and I know my daughter will love it.

This toy arrives in impressive packaging, making it an excellent gift to give or receive. My daughter and I were both eager to see what this toy was all about. We do not have any other Ever After High toys or books, so this was a new adventure for us. It is perhaps important to note that my daughter is age 7, and for her that means a total rejection of all things considered overly girly or babyish, including all dolls. That being said, this doll with her edgy look and funky clothes, immediately met her criteria for being cool. The doll is well constructed, and my daughter declared that she would never let her hair get tangled since it was so beautiful.

The fun really begins when you start to explore the book that houses the rooms and furniture that go with the set. It is packed with fun accessories and my daughter truly enjoys setting up the rooms to her liking whenever she takes the set out to play with. The furniture that is included can be built and deconstructed quickly by my daughter, so there is little drama when it comes to clean up time : ) My only disappointment with the set is that the DJ booth is made of cardboard. It never quite sits flat when it is opened up for play so that section of the book never really looks just right and doesnt seem to be of the same quality as the rest of the pieces. That being said, it has not yet ripped, and has never been a complaint of my daughter.

My favorite part by far, is the way this set packs up into itself and looks like a book that can be stored on a bookshelf. Once I figured out the ikea-style picture directions to get everything put away properly, it really was easy to do. I showed my daughter once what she needed to do to get it all put away and she has been able to do so independently since that time. One of my frustrations with other sets of a similar style is that they take up so much space and the tiny accessories are always getting lost. This concept solves all those problems and makes playing fun for both parent and child.

In the spirit of full disclosure and thanks to Mattel, we received this toy to try for free.
