What age range would you recommend these for? I think my niece is 8 next birthday, I don't think her mum would approve of Barbie, is she the right age or too old?

My DD chose these dolls with her 9th birthday money. So she doesn't think she is too old for them! She has enjoyed playing with them and would love the other dolls for her birthday.

Thanks very much OP, just ordered 3 sets for my girls for Xmas.

Managed to order two sets but the third set wouldn't work and was coming up at £29.97, took me ages trying to get it to say £19.97 on the reserve page. What I did was because the Alesha doll was out of stock at my 3 local stores when I was trying to reserve it at the store where all 3 were in stock it was coming up with £29.97, so I added the 3 items I wanted to my basket and when I clicked to check stock in my area instead of typing my postcode in I typed the area of the store where I knew the items were in stock and it worked OK and so reserved it for £19.97 (hope that makes sense).

Going to collect two sets later and will collect the other tomorrow.

Your welcome;) Hope you like them:D

Just picked mine up and they do look really good. Am tempted by another set!

If your wanting more outfits and accessories for your doll and you have other girls to buy for its probably worth buying another doll set and giving the doll away as a gift. Cos say for example you wanted two more outfits, its as expensive as buying a whole doll set.

Has anyone else noticed that the Bedwear outfit is classed as an accessory.

This means you can get the doll plus an outfit plus the nightwear for £19.97.

Have reserved mine and off tomorrow to pick up - my 7 year old's birthday is 4th December and my son's birthday is 11th December so have to grab any bargains I can.

Thanks for the recommendation though - I can't bear the new Bratz style dolls! Make me feel like we're expecting our girls to grow up too quickly...

Many thanks OP - just reserved for my niece, she actually showed them to me when we played 'look through the argos catalogue' last time I saw her :rotfl:

And thanks railill for the nightwear tip, doll plus two outfits for £20 fab!

Since i've got other MSE members buying this range has anybody got any ideas for me or others of a pretty storage solution for outfits and accessories? So far searching that big old web all i can find is something like this

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Russel-Foldable-Storage-Handle-Light/dp/B002NPBRU2/ref=sr_1_17?ie=UTF8&qid=1318860182&sr=8-17

...maybe in a smaller version as says large.
any better ideas would be much appreciated:D I'm not wanting to spend much. I know i probably end up at home bargains getting some plastic lidded tubs but id rather something a bit nicer:o

Thanks in advance!:)
