A Great Barbie Toy February 15, 2008 Randi Morse (Vermont) 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
My 3 (almost 4) year old is obsessed with Barbie. When we bought one of the movies there was a few of these cards in the DVD as a promotional gimmick. It worked. She loved the idea that she could design and dress up Barbie without having to struggle with getting actual arms and legs into small clothes. I managed to snag one on Amazon (keep searching, they become available, I promise!) for the great price and waited to give it to her until Valentine's day.
She loves it. We had fun organizing them into the carrying case and getting it all set up. Then we moved to the computer and got the program working. I thought she would have a problem sliding the cards through the scanner but she doesn't! She's learned how to do it well and has spent over an hour each day so far dressing up Barbie and showing off her clothing. She has even fiddled around with the "magazine cover" part and has asked to print out a copy of the cover to color (a very nice feature - it turns any Barbie outfit into a coloring page!)
I am extremely happy with this toy and want to let everyone know that even my almost 4 year old can play it and enjoy it, along with her mother!! Great toy Barbie designers - I am very, very impressed.

My 6 year old daughter loves it! She finds it all easy to operate and plays with it for a good period of time.
Easy to set up December 5, 2008 Shelly Kastner (Nashua, NH United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This product is great. I love the fact that it comes with a binder to hold everything. It was a very easy set up as well. My daughter is really enjoying it.
Like Fashion Plates? Try this out! January 2, 2009 Dawn R. Powell (Fredericksburg, VA United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I got my daughter some of the packs of cards for this game a while back - they were fun to stack and look at the designs anyway, and they were inexpensive, so we started with those. They come with a plastic frame where you can display your designs. She played with them a LOT so that is when I started looking at this set. Santa brought one this year and we have had an absolute blast with it. I installed it first on my computer (2008 Windows XP) Christmas Day, then took it to my mom's to show her (2001 laptop) , and now it is installed on my daughter's (ancient, Windows 2000) PC. We had no problems with installation of the scanner, use of the cards (the old ones or the new ones) or the software.
This reminds me a lot of the fashion plates I had as a kid... so many cool things to make! And the scanning of the cards, which I imagined would be a little more difficult than it ended up being, is as easy as scanning your credit card at the checkout. I can't think of any other video game I have seen like this - a toy that can stand alone WITHOUT a computer but then you can scan them in and create things on the computer too.
My daughter just turned seven and is just wild about the games, and I have made about a zillion outfits myself. I highly recommend this set.
My only "downside" is that the cord for the scanner (usb) is not very long. If you are using it on an older PC without front USB ports you may find it is a stretch to set it where you can reach it easily. However, a USB extension cord would solve this problem if it comes up.
my 5 year old loves it May 14, 2008 Joanne A. (Maryland) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We bought this for my neices 6th birthday, and she and my daughter had so much fun playing it we bought my daughter one when she turned 5. It is very easy to set up and they can play with it themselves with no problem.
