I recently purchased this set for my 10-year-old daughter. She was delighted! Unfortunately, we have been unable to figure out how to get the dolls to sing simultaneously. The direction sheet seems simple enough, but simply following the picture how-to is not adequate to ensure that the dolls will sing together. Otherwise it sounds something more like an acutal high school musical... In addition, her four-year-old brother got a hold of it and 30 seconds later Troy is a bilateral amputee at the pelvic region. These dolls are not like the ones in the era I grew up in whose legs could simply be popped back into place. Once, these dolls are broken they are fairly useless unless you have a reconstructive surgery degree from Mattel Medical School. I am still trying to figure out some way to salvage my $[...] investment with a little Super Glue, but I am not having much luck yet. If your child loves High School Musical, this is a great way to allow them to use their imagination and put on their own production. Just use great care if you have a little brother in your household.

I was kind of disappointed with this purchase. I searched around for the Troy doll for my daughter for Christmas this year and when the two dolls arrived I was so excited that she was going to have both Troy and Gabriella this year. However, when she opened them and began playing with them she wasn't as excited as I expected. I wasn't either. The dolls do sing but they do not sing together and if you don't press the buttom on their backs at the right time in sequence than the signing is completely off. Also, the tune that the two dolls sing to is completely different keys so it was a little disappointing. As far as playing with them as you would with any Barbie doll, they're great.

I got this for my 8 yr old daughter for x-mas and she loves it!! This was my first time ever ordering from Amazon.com and I didn't know what to expect! Everything went great, from ordering to getting the item in a timely manner, to the product being great.
I would recommend this product, when the dolls sing you can hear them clearly and they are just loud enough.

I was really excited about these dolls, since my young nice is addicted in High School Musical. However, my first disappointment was about the music. They barely sing for 10 sec! And after a while, Troy stopped singing. The product seems to be of good quality but I was expecting much more.

The prouduct was delivered on time and the price was great. Everybody else wanted more money, but Amazon had the best price and was in stock. Great job.

This was purchased for Christmas and I have to say that Amazon did an amazing job in getting it here very quickly. It was supposed to ship in 7 days but, in fact, arrived to me in 7 days. The dolls sing when you press a button on their backs, however the entire song does not play and they do not sing in unison as I had thought. The plastic "hold" for Troy on his stand broke the second time we put him on the stand, but my daughter really did not care about the stand. She takes him with here everywhere so fortunately that was not a problem. They have moving parts and are very flexible so they are pretty well made. All in all it's good.

Cute dolls. I don't think it is a big deal if you don't have them together singing. it didn;t bother my 5 y/o niece anyways. They haven;t had a problem with limbs becoming unattached or anything. Cute gift!

i got this when i was 7, i absolutely loved it!! but i put it in the tub with me (you know,for a little pool party!) and ever since, it sings randomly in the middle of the night!!

My 8 yr old daughter loves these dolls. Troy's leg sometimes comes off with rough play, but is easily replaced.

I bought this for my granddaughters 7th birthday, she loves the dolls, they even sing which I didnt know about till I saw them on web cam!
