Some kids may not have been able to complete the physics based game but the Sackboy poseable doll can easily be played with. His hands and legs bend and he would look quite nice on Barbie’s arm. But …
Moxie Girls are all about girls who are full of energy, self-confidence and expressing their creativity! We’re especially fond of their Art-titude Remote Control Car, which isn’t just a fun way to get Moxie Girlz dolls around town, it’s also been designed with black and white graphics for girls to color on and bring to life with their own creativity. And if girls ever get tired of their creation, like with other Moxie Girls products, they can easily clean it off and start again. The …
When Dora’s Explorer Girls Dora Links Doll was announced it caused a lot of stir, because that meant Dora was getting older and many didn’t like that. But once her images were released, a lot of folks began to simmer down when they realized that yes – Dora was older now and that the Dora Links doll is a sophisticated doll, that Dora herself would be proud of.
