4.0 out of 5 stars
Still, a little disappointing, January 5, 2001
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Play-doh Case of Colors (Toy)
Though the fun, durability and educational value of this product are all very good or better, I did want to emphasize one thing for potential purchasers of this product. When I received this item from Amazon (intended as a gift for a friend's four-year-old daughter), I was pretty disappointed that there were NO cans of blue but TWO cans of hot pink Play Doh in the set.
The Amazon description DOES include a disclaimer for the potential variation of colors in the set, so I'm absolutely not faulting them for not alerting consumers to this deficiency. It's just that, well, I didn't think that it would happen to me (who ever does?), so please DO be aware that they issue this disclaimer for good reason. It's not the end of the world, and I'm sure that the recipient won't think twice about the absence of blue Play Doh in her new, "ten-color" set (such as it is!), but it keeps me from being 100% satisfied with the product.
While I'm at it, I should also add that these are NOT full-size cans of Play Doh - they appear to be approximately half the size of the cans in regular sets. I did not see that information anywhere in the Amazon description (it might be there, but if it is, it wasn't in a conspicuous place), and it's a point worth mentioning somewhere. If you think that you're getting a good deal by getting 10 full-size cans for eight bucks, you are getting nothing of the sort. Better Play Doh values can be found elsewhere on the site, so you might want to keep looking for them if, like me, you're generally the type who likes to get her money's worth.

These are SMALL tubs, October 2, 2000

Great pack of fun colors that are hard to find, BUT the tubs are VERY SMALL - they are really party "gift bag" sized.
It's a shame that the description doesn't give you a better indication that you're not getting a regular-sized tub.
Other than that - lots of fun.

I found this toy to be the most enjoyable, long lasting toy ever made. Although it says for kids between the ages 3 - 8, I think that it is a toy for all ages to enjoy. Even at age 22, I use playdoh to make my imaginations flow.
