(More customer reviews)I bought this for my daughter's 12th birthday and while I think it has great potential for her to play with. (I haven't give it to her yet).
I opened it up to put batteries in it..and of course make sure it worked and see how it worked.
I was impressed with size and the way it works, lots of options, so I don't think she will get bored to quickly and I see it being a hit at slumber parties, etc.
One thing I think that would make this more appealing would be a card slot or some sort of removable memory so that kids could share their creations by email or on a website with other kids, this would probably jack the price up, but just having images confined to the toy itself seems like it is missing something in these days. Even a standard usb port to be able to transfer to the computer would be good.
***UPDATE
My daughter has played with this exactly once and it went back in the box never to be touched again, requires too much lighting, pictures are horrible and it is difficult to use. She really didn't like it. She has had more fun with the 20Q game that she got for christmas!
