This is a great review Ras, thanks.  I remember the covering on the tipis to be plastic on the ones from the early 80's.  I found them very difficult to put together, so this material looks like a vast improvement and much more colorful.   :love:

Looks like a good value set like the Warrior Klickies and the rocky landscape  :)

Can you actually shoot arrows with that bow like it says on the box?

I'd like to know that too! :lol:

I never planned to resist the indians.. Am trying hard to resist the cowboys though.... VERY HARD.

I think that is sooo... not good.. I still have the ancient bows that shoot... Of course, we need to replace the "strings". Bah. Not handy at all..

Well I am glad I was able to make a decent review with so little time and effort on my part  :-[ I would have liked to have it more elaborate with more pictures but I scrambled this together last night before I had to deal with 25 crazy chicks who keep trying to escape. Its fine they want to get out but then I would have to deal with the queen chick (aka my wife) and her wanting to kill them for damaging plants. Then there is my loss of ability to protect them from predators if they sleep anywhere they want  8} Right now they are in our pheasant enclosure.

As far as the shooting ability of the arrows...I will find out. I have never tried with the old ones but this new style looks like it should work better with the heavy headed arrows.

You can definitely shoot these arrows, but it takes some coordination and practice... they're so tiny! It's really hard to hold them in grown-up hands.

Are the bows made differently? I couldn't imagine "shooting" them. :lol:

I've held this set in my grubby hands at TRU but didn't buy it.  I really wish I would have now.  I love the klickies and accesories in this set.  Next time I'm at TRU this village is coming home with me.
