What We Think

Fun Factor:

Durability:

(what this means)

The Good: Soft, plush animal is cute and cuddly; online virtual world is safe and has many games

The Bad: Parts of the virtual world are under construction; online play may require registration by parent

In a Nutshell: A cute, plush stuffed animal with a code for a one-year subscription to a fun, interactive online world for kids
At a Glance

Ages: 6 and up
Requires: Online component requires computer with Internet connection
Cute, Plush Stuffed Animals
With large heads, giant curious eyes peering at you, bright colors, and a super-soft plush body, the cute Littlest Pet Shop VIPs will quickly be vying as your child's favorite playmate. The VIPs measure about 7 x 10 x 4 (WxHxD) inches and are weighted at the bottom so they can stand on their own.

An Online Virtual World With Your Own House
The fun doesn't end with this plush animal, however. Each pet includes a code on its tag that lets you play online at LittlestPetShop. com for a year. To play with the online component, you will need an Internet connection and sign up for a new account at www. littlestpetshop. com. There is no software to download as the game is completely Web-based and only uses a Web browser.

Parents may need to help their children get started by registering a new account. Once the account has been made and the secret code is entered, a virtual version of your adopted pet will be visible on screen. You can name this virtual pet anything you want, and the pet even has its own house and garden.

Moving your character around the virtual world is accomplished by simply clicking where you want your pet to go. There are various games within the world, symbolized by icons such as a soccer ball or water balloons, and that are accessible simply by clicking on them.

One game that is accessible early in the world is Water Balloon Poppin, a puzzle game that is both fun and promotes problem solving. When you finish, you see your score compared to high scores from other players around the world. If you have a high score, it is saved. Depending on your score, you earn kibble coins (virtual dollars) that can be used in the various shops to purchase items such as clothing, home decorations, and plants.

With these new purchases, you can feed your pet, dress your pet up with different clothing (your pet then walks around with the new accessories), decorate your pet's home, tend your garden, and perform many other fun tasks.

The scope of the virtual world is impressive. There are many places to explore, including the playground, the vet, the forest, the dock, and the village. At each of these areas, there are different things to do and different games to play. In total, there are 25 games, including Water Balloon Poppin, Pet doctor, All Paws Soccer, Horse Shoe Toss, and Miniest Golf. The world includes lots of activities to keep them happily occupied.

Keep Up with the News
A newspaper keeps players up-to-date on the goings-on of the virtual world. New games will be announced here, and high scores are also displayed. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like the virtual world is quite complete. Some features such as the "Home of the Day" section in the newspaper are still under construction.

Safe, Friendly Playing Environment
Parents will be happy to know that the virtual environment is designed to both fun and safe. Names are never fully displayed, and language is filtered to eliminate "bad words. "

A cute, plush animal has an added online component that makes it fun for a long time. With a virtual environment that is being added to with new games and items, the Littlest Pet Shop VIPs holds children's attention longer than traditional plush animals.

What's in the Box

cute toy4
my niece collects these. i got it for her as a gift. too bad she lives in a different state i would just loved she her face when she opened it. luckly i had it ship right to her and she just got it just in time for christmas.

If they like VIP's, they will like this for their collection4
Yes, this VIP was not as vibrant in color as it appears online. However, it was in good condition. It is a cute stuffed animal. But honestly, if a child wants a VIP, they want the code to play with it online, not so much for the stuffed animal. It did arrive in a manila envelope, but the condition was not altered by this. This is a great price for a VIP. I am happy with the purchase.

The Duck Without the Fluff2
The toy was received, and it did not look that new. It was rather smashed looking, like it had sat somewhere with other things that smashed it. It was not fluffy looking, like a new toy. For the purpose that it was intended, it was okay.

VIP Code Already Registered1
I purchased 3 VIP toys for my 3 kids. Two of them registered on the website just fine. The third one came back saying we couldn't register it because the code had already been used. I called Hasboro and they jerked me around for a week before sending me a postage paid sticker to mail the toy in to them for evaluation. My daughter was despondant--she'd already waited 7 days to play with her toy. I ended up exchanging it for another one at the military base exchange where we bought it.

Hasboro could not explain why the code on this sealed, brand new toy would have been already in use. They certainly did not seem to have a great deal of urgency to fix my problem. To top it off, their customer service rep got nasty with me and said, "You're the only person who's had this problem." Well, I hope I stay the only one with this problem. They could end up with a lot of issues Christmas morning if they're wrong.

Take your chances when you buy this toy. Some stores may not be as understanding as a military base exchange if you have to return it for a new one.
