Very cute and loveable, small pieces a waste of space, December 16, 2004
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Barbie Fairytopia Dolls - Petal Pixies - Pink & Purple Mermaids (Toy)
These are very cute, although they mostly just bend at the waist so they don't do much. The small pieces will just get lost and you can't relly use them anyway so I would suggest just throwing them away with the packaging. The tops come off and get lost very easy becasue they're so small and it's a little weird to see small topless mermaids around the house. However, all that aside they're very cute and my daughters love them. They have both mermaid sets and the little fairies too.

Magical Mermaids are a winner in our home!, April 11, 2005

This review is from: Barbie Fairytopia Dolls - Petal Pixies - Pink & Purple Mermaids (Toy)
The first thing that I noticed that I didn't like about the mermaid set was the tiny accessories. They are extremely cute and a good idea for a child's imagination, but they are just so small that within the first day they were lost. My daughter has never been good about saving any of the accessories with any of her toys, and I have never been good about finding them. I almost wish I would have just left them attached (especially after the trying time we had just to get the accessories pulled off). Second, the little halter tops that both fairies wear are removable. As usual, my daughter pulled them off immediately and they are lost as well. This would be fine if the mermaids weren't so small, but now the little cloth halter tops are lost somewhere in one of the toy boxes (or somewhere else).
However, aside from those minor annoyances this really is a wonderful set. The pixie flower is extremely sturdy and it almost impossible to bend or break. And as tiny as these mermaids are, they are sturdy as well. As small as their little arms and fins are, these are two strong little mermaids. My daughter absolutely loves the mermaids and plays with them continuously. Every night they are put in their pixie flower, and greeted every morning. They also make a cute decoration, as the flower sits perfectly by itself. I would suggest though (if you want to keep the accessories) that parents keep a close eyes on all the tiny brushes, bottles, and mirrors. They can and will be lost by most young children.
The mermaids and flower still look new to this day and considering how much time and enjoyment my daughter has had with the mermaids, this was definitely $9.99 well spent. Although I cannot recommend some of the other Fairytopia fairies and mermaids, this one is a winner.

These are so cute. I personally like the purple one better. But thats only because of the pink one's hair do. I like to make it known that I am very soon to be 13 in my reveiws so that people know that some people never outgrow barbie. Any ways I really like these dolls even if thay are a bit expensive. I only have one complaint and that is, they have a little design on their forehead. Well thats all I hope this helped.
