This set of Pollys is great. I love that the clothes have been improved. They are much easier to get on and off, and they are more durable than they used to be. If you're already a fan of Pollys then you will love the great improvements of the clothes and accessories. They don't tear easily like the clothes of the past.

I'm a mental health therapist and bought the Polly Pocket dolls to work with my clients who are children.

I have found them to be durable and easy to maintain since everything's plastic and easy to store since they're so small - a big plus in a small office I also see adults in! Even better the kids love them! They know exactly which box I keep all the Polly doll accessories in and make a bee line for them as soon as they walk in the door!

i thought this was a very good toy.it comes with 4 dolls and tons of outfits you defintely get your money's worth

I love pollies and this one is soooooo cool. I had two dolls that broke, (they were really old so don't freak out.) their legs popped off! I knew exactly how to fix them. I made an abulabance and I thought it would be fun to have a hospitlal. So I got this set with the dotor and it totally Rocks!

My 5 year old loves Polly Pocket... the accessories are easy for a little girl to lose but the toys are great. I see several complaints about the male doll being the doctor. One of the reasons Polly Pocket is so fun is that you can change their clothes!! Two minutes of swapping and any of the girl dolls can be the doctor! It's up to a parent to guide and foster confidence in their child to be able to explore any career (such as a doctor), and not up to the toy companies. Just my take on things.

The career outfits are a good idea. I hope they come out with more. Only thing is I would like to see the female outfits be more realistic rather then sexy in nature. Real nurses don't wear mini dresses. I am concerned for our girls being pressured or feeling their value is in being sexy. Any women who dresses like this on the job will get sexual harrassment. There is much too heavy of an emphasis for females to be sex objects in our culture. Most young females have no idea what they are provoking in or suggesting to men when they dress like this. They just think they are being pretty or cute. Toy manufactures play a large role.

I give this a somewhat positive review because most of the other Polly Pocket toys tend to glorify vanity and greed. This at least gives our girls something to think about and play act besides shopping and looking sexy. And while doggie sets and playground sets are nice, most children like to play act out what their fathers and mothers do.

I like, too, that they include a male. That allows for a more realistic play world in that our world does consist of males and he could be a father, husband, doctor, brother, etc. Hopefully they will come out with more career outfits for him and the female dolls. It would be nice if there was a girl doctor outfit as it is nice to have female doctors for us women especially. I am glad that the male outfit can go on the female but it would be better if she had one that was just for her.

A mommy and nursery set would be nice too as most women have children and can never get away from, and hopefully don't want to get away from, that job. It is one I am proud of and I hope my girls will be too when they grow up.

I almost bought this but the $42 dollars is a bit much for us. I only can afford to buy toys that are solidly positive for my child. When I buy a set it is a great value with fun yet modest clothes. I scrap the mini skirts and other skimpy dresses if their is one or two included. I might buy this later when I can afford it. It didn't quite make our Christmas list.

this toy is so much fun to play with. it is very durable also. I love to play with it. me and my friends play for hours.

Yes, the boy doll can only really fit into the lifeguard or doctor, but my 4 year old daughter puts the doctor or lifeguard outfits on the girls too. They're just a little loose ... but she doesn't even notice. However, she is a little sad that the boy can't wear any of the other clothes, but I don't think she's lost sleep over it (since the boy doll is a little larger than the girl dolls). She's so obsessed about being a doctor one day, that she's thrilled she gets to dress them up in a doctor outfit. She loves it.
