This toy was much more fun than I expected. It was one of the surprise hits this Christmas. The dolls have many joints so they "flip" around the bar very well. There are many different ways to connect them and it is not too difficult for my 8 year old to do by herself.

I purchased this item on sale for about twelve dollars. I'm not sure it's worth more than twenty or so, though. It is difficult to attach the dolls by their knees. Also, the dolls are pretty much only useful for this purpose since they are so jointed. They aren't very useful in regular play.

Still, overall I think this is a really fun toy.

My neice and I got a kick out of this toy on Christmas, though maybe not for the right reasons. It is a fun toy but after a while the basic stuff got kind of boring for my 5 year old neice. So, she started seeing how easy it was to get the dolls to kick each other in the face using the device. Not in a violent way, of course, just kind of funny. We also found out ways you could connect the two dolls together to create a continuous loop. She played with it for hours, giggling hysterically all the while.

I imagine the toll will break within months because even as we were playing on Christmas, some of the components seemed a bit flimsy. Oh, and the dolls are dressed a bit provacatively (come on, a g-string?) so be sure to talk to the child about play versus reality. I certainly do not want my 5 year old neice trying to dress like these Barbies!!

Would I buy it again? Yes. Would I buy it if I did not have a decent amount of money and could afford buying throw away toys? No.

Barbie is a great icon and so what little gymnist wouldn't want a Barbie gymnastics set?!? There are too many pieces to loose and the Barbies just don't flip well. It's a pain in the rear for parents having to fix all the problems.

Held my daughters attention about 1 week. Nothing cool about it. Just makes the dolls fly over it. They had more fun laughing at how rediculous it made barbies look than they did using it they right way. Better stuff out there. It has already been thrown away and she just got it at christmas.

Having a small 5 year old niece that adores gimnastics...This was the toy to buy! Not difficult to set and use, dolls have many different flips. It's a fun toy.
