Perfect preparation for Christmas5
My daughter loves Peppa Pig, so I was planning to get it her for Christmas. I gave in and she had it early. I'm glad I did now!!
The Christmas episode it fantastic! Peppa, George and their friends ask for ONE present each, and that is what they receive. Great in these times, and a perfect way to tell your child that you don't have a bad Christmas just because you only get one gift!

I really recommend this, a real joy to watch!

***** Stars5
A few weeks ago our family was new to Peppa Pig so I really didn't know which DVD to start with.

I was going to buy the Complete Collection (just released) but I think 9 hours of any TV hit is a bit too much for my 2 year old at the moment (not to mention a 30 year old trying to sort through 9 discs in order to find the favorites!)

I bought Peppa's Christmas a few weeks ago as a run up to the Christmas season and it has been a HUGE HUGE hit. Suddenly watching ITNG has taken second place and I never thought I would see the day.
Peppa is an 'ordinary' little piggy and the series is sweet & refreshing. It's not overly basic so I can see my daughter adoring this lovable character for a few more years to come.

I'm going to buy one or two more Peppa DVD's, just for variety and in case this one wears itself out!
Definitely recommended

Great DVD for our PP collection. 5
This DVD has one slightly longer christmas episode which my kids love watching all year long and 10 other normal episodes.

It's just as good as all our other Peppa pig collections (muddy puddles, flying a kite) which my 4 year old son has enjoyed for a couple of years and his 18 month old sister has now discovered.

Money well spent!

Any Peppa Pig fan should add this to their collection. My daughter is such a fan and anything to do with peppa pig is worth buying

Oink Oink5
We got this for my 3 year old daughter for Christmas. She loves it. It is very easy to play with as the whole top comes off. The accessories are good fun too. Much more playability than the push and go car or drive and steer car as the figures come out.

Only slight criticism is that the awning on the camper van keeps getting ripped off, but it is easy to put back in again!

Nice toy but not as good as could have been...3
Just received the toy today for my son. He is 4 and loves peppa pig. They make it extremely difficult to get it out of the box... you will need a screw driver, scissors, and a lot of muscle lol. The caravan top comes off but the doors don't open or anything so it is just like a big plastic box that the top lifts off of. Daddy pig does not stand his body is too heavy for his legs and this frustrates my son a bit. It's a really cute idea and my son loves it and said he is happy about it. But you have to pop the seats out of the caravan to have seats for the picnic table, the shower is just a piece of plastic it does nothing really, the sun shade on top of the caravan rolls out and in which is cool but it gets stuck a lot and you have to re-adjust it. The good thing is all the extras fit into the back of the caravan so you can pack it away easy. The characters don't really sit in the seats very well either. I would like this toy more if it had cost less. I think it is a bit expensive for what it does.

good preparation for starting school 5
I got this for my four year old daughter who will start school in August. She is already role-playing using this and just loves it. The house and campervan sets are quite good too. She doesn't even mind that we now have multiple Peppa and family figures. She's just turned them into extended family. Didn't know Peppa had so many cousins!

Peppa School Life ~!5
My 2.5 yr old loves this ! Loads of characters to complete her collection - She even trys the teachers voice !!! Would recommend this Peppa addition to anyone !!

Wonderful gift5
Bought this for my 3 year old for Christmas, she is a huge Peppa fan and thinks it is wonderful. Maybe it has something to do with all the charaters that come with the toy. Well worth the money for that reason alone.

Tardis Playset4
We bought this playset for our six year old son for a bargain price of £12.99. It is definately worth the price. Anyone that says its flimsy has not put it together correctly.It took about 45 mins to put together and you must make sure you 'snap' all the struts into the slots tightly. If done right , you can easily pick the model up and move it around. The sounds and light effects are FAB. The only thing missing is a character to play with which is a shame.My son isn't one for playing with toys much but this has seen a few hours of fun already so i would definatley recommend but be prepared to read some instructions to assemble properly !!

A stage for the Doctor4
Well, if you can avoid sending £40 on this toy - I got it for £10 as part of a multibuy - it's excellent value. Once assembled - and set aside an hour to do this - it's a far larger structure than you'd guess from the box. This is so different from most Dr Who toys which look better and more substantial in the box.

The toy is an excellent backdrop for kids to play with the various Dr Who characters. It's a bit like a stage. Paying heed to other reviewers, it's not particularly robust but sets the context for Dr Who-themed play. I'd recommend it and wouldn't mind one myself!!

Fantastic!5
I've gotten the toy yesterday although it took my friend and myself almost 2 hours to put it up (which was fun in itself, ignoring the slight problems already mentioned here i.e. getting the pieces out of their wired cages ;-)) I still love it.

I loved its details (the inclusion of the hammer definitely got a fan-heart-PLUS from me :-)) and the sounds, light effects and the fact that the core of the TARDIS really moves. What really got me were the explanations in the instruction manual about the TARDIS panel - all the sounds and effects are put into context of the series and it informs you what every panel is about. That's great BG info!

Well thought out design!5
This is a great toy, whoever designed it must have done it through the eyes of a child. The detail is impressive and so is the functionality. I think it offered great value for money and I think its great!

My review of the flight control Tardis4
The flight control tardis is a giant leap fowerd from the last tardis(tardis talking money box)It features glowing windows with inside interior lighting, It also features 6 different tardis sound affects
with flashing lantern, police telephone detail and inward opening doors.If you push open the doors you come to a boring space with a sticker of the tardis inside.You may think by that it would have every
thing a flight control tardis would need, but if your a person that likes to play with toys this is probely the wrong toy for you. If your a collecter then this is a perfect collectors tardis, over all I think that the flight control tardis is quite a disapointment ,so if you would like this toy, your waisting your money ,but if your totally mad about doctor who, then its totally Brillent!

THE TIME LORDS TIME MACHINE THAT'S INTERACTIVE.4
This is the latest in the raft of TARDIS toy's and models which have flooded the market. This one is one of the best as it has motion sensitive electronics so it will produce various Tardis type sounds. From the lift off when you place it on a surface to opening the doors it will. Produce the humming of the ships engines as on the series as well as flickering internal lighting. There are other neat tricks such as spinning it which will make the sound of the ship in the Vortex. All in all this is a brilliant toy and lots of fun for young and old fans. It's also produced for the new range of 5 inch figures but unlike the Tv Tardis only 2 figures will squeeze inside !.

Product Description

Get ready for adventure after adventure in the Tardis. With lights and sound effects activated by movement and doors that open to accommodate your 5inch action figures inside. For ages 5-105 years. Battery Requirement: 3xAAA batteries (not included). Dime

Great Gift5
It's really good how they manage to make him shut up into his little box, and at the push of a button he appears again.
My daughter won't go anywhere without him, which is fine as he's not too large to carry around.

Great Fun and Very Durable5
I purchased this for my daughter's fifth birthday having been put off the interactive WALL-E which is very flimsy and I would highly recommend it to other parents thinking of buying it, the transforming controls are a little stiff the first couple of times but after a couple of hours my daughter was opening him up and putting him back to 'sleep' fairly easily.

He is very durable having been bounced around the floor alot and played with constantly, also he's adorable!
