Elsa's hair can also be braided and styled in different ways. The doll also features Elsa's signature outfit.

One customer wrote: "This doll is everything I hoped it would be! It looks just like Elsa from the movie, so my girl immediately loved it! The button to push for the song to play, is easy for her small fingers. She pushes it about 300 times an hour! It’s her favourite movie and favourite song. Elsa is very sturdy, my girl has thrown her around and played rough but the doll is still in perfect condition! Overall I am so pleased with this product."

Make bath time more fun with the Cars Bath Toy Set! Arriving in a box with a built in water drainer, the Car toys feature five loved characters from the film, that are suitable for use in the bath. There's no holes in them either, meaning they won't build up with mould on the inside.

One review said: "She loves these and we have tried to get different sets. They do not have holes in and are a very nice size not small really. She doesn't really use them in the bath because she loves just playing with them and recognising them when watching telly. They are perhaps a bit pricey but they are nice sturdy toys that will last a long time I would assume. She's had several sets for about 9 months now and apart from a bit of paint off some areas like a nose etc they are still good"

Cons

  • Paint might wear after awhile

One review said: "This is the cutest Woody and very close to the real thing. I was worried about what other reviewers said about his voice, but it sounds just like Tom hanks to me. He says “you’re my favourite deputy” and “there’s a snake in my boot!” Just like in the movie. He says other things too mostly from Toy Story 3 as if he’s talking to Buzz and I read that if you also buy Buzz they talk to each other. The only phrases he does not say are “reach for the stars “ and “someone poisoned the waterhole.” Also the buttons on his shirt are sewn in so quality there not the greatest but we are overall very happy with the purchase. And the best part is my 3 year old LOVES him. Definitely worth it!"

Pros

  • Unlock new phrases with other Toy Story characters
  • Like the Woody from the film

Cons

  • Doesn't say all Woody's famous phrases
