2.0 out of 5 stars Do you have a video camera, if so save your $$, August 29, 2005

Although the idea is fun the actual toy lacks a good visual image display of your toddler. We took ours back because the clarity is pretty poor even with the right lighting. If you have a video camera and a cd player save your money and plug the video camera into the tv, turn it on and let your toddler watch themselves dance and sing to any cd you put in. Buy them a pretend microphone and you are all set.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome for the toddler / child who loves music, dancing & being on tv, September 21, 2005

Our 2 1/2 year old recently has discovered herself in every security camera as of late so this toy is terrific! This was a gift that our daughter just loves! We had no problems plugging it into our tv because it has 3 color coded cords. The picture is NOT as clear as it shows on the box - but considering the price and that our daughter loves music, dancing and seeing herself on tv and as our daughter says "that's cool!"

If you get this make sure that you have all of the batteries. You'l need 3 AAA for the microphone and 6 C batteries for the Star Station.

Their are five special ways you can see yourself on tv regular screen, double vision, kaleidoscope ( bug vision ), color warp and a star. It comes with a Kids Bop cartridge that has 4 songs - SK8er Boi, All Star, Hey ya and Who let the dog out.

Now, hopefully down the road Fisher Price could joined forces with The Wiggles and have a cartridge with some of their songs . My daughter would really like that!

This review is from: Fisher Price Star Station Entertainment System (Toy)

I bought this for my 4 year old for her birthday and it is terrible. After listening to one song, she told me it was boring. I even bought some additional song packs, but they are not music that she relates to. She loves to sing and dance, but if she is singing, she can't hear the musical recording. The clarity of the picture on the screen is not what I would consider a high quality and the star image never appears on my screen. Instead it appears even darker then the normal image.

To make matters even worse is that you must put batteries in it and the instructions specifically state that if you do not turn off the device after each use, it does not turn off automatically. Therefore, you are required to turn off and turn on with each use.

Most of the songs are far over my child's head and even with buying additional song cartridges, I don't think we will ever get our money out of this toy.
