1.0 out of 5 stars Worst product concept ever. Amazon should be ashamed to sell, November 28, 2004

This review is from: Bratz Secret Date Electronic Game (Toy)

This is a [...] product, and [...]. The marketing for the "Secret Date" products, marketed to young girls, suggests to them that they have a "secret" midnight date with a stranger they don't know (the television ad shows the doll sneaking out at night with a man who appears behind a frosted glass door with a question mark over his face - suggesting that not knowing how you will be dating till you open the door/sneaking out to meet a complete stranger - is a good thing). The whole marketing focus suggests to young girls that they should have a secret rendezvous or encounter with a stranger.

It's just a truly horrific product, sending an almost unbelievably bad message to children.

This review is from: Bratz Secret Date Electronic Game (Toy)

Although I haven't seen the TV ad, I understand it to be rather inappropriate, especially for the age group recommended. The manufacturer suggests 6 and up and Toys-r-us says 6-10. While the general idea of the game, investigative in nature, would be appropriate for such ages, the specifics of the game require it to be for older children. Also, the overall marketing scheme may mislead some children. I don't know if the game itself (outside of descriptions on the box or in reviews) describes sneaking out for a date. If it does, then the game needs fixing. If not, then just descriptions, reviews, and marketing schemes need to be fixed. According to the manufacturer, the choice of "dates" is between 4 specifc boys, not "strangers" as the other customer review mentions. Again, this is an issue of the age group the game should be recommended for. Again, the most basic idea of the game, that of the process of elimation to discover an answer, is good. But much needs to be done to correct rather inappropriate marketing schemes (at the least).
