Don't be fooled - my new review

When I looked at the pictures of these little figures, they are built to look like the legs and arms bend, but they don't! The legs are shaped like the Lego man legs with sharp indentations at the hips which look like joints. The plastic is solid but you can't tell till you open the plastic and try to flex the hips. Similarly but not as distinct - the arms appear to separate at the shoulders - which ordinarily is where they swivel.The paint is "off" - not quite where it should be or straight on - in many places. I bought this set because the set that came with the expensive firehouse I bought for my office was too big and this set was a better fit. Unfortunately I can't use them because the quality is so poor that the children would be frustrated and I would be embarrassed to let them be seen.

Pros
  • Improves language and communication skills
Cons
  • The set may reinforce negative stereotypes about firefighters and emergency responders
