5571 Bicycle Safety and 5573 Mom with Twins
« on: February 15, 2015, 02:37:28 »
I ordered these two sets from Toys R Us... they arrived a bit worse for the wear (shipped together in a padded envelope), but I don't care about the boxes anyway. 





So the Bicycle Safety Set is kind of cute.  It has a fair number of parts/ pieces fore $15.99 price tag.  It includes a boy and a girl (I love the little boy's outfit). The only drawback to it is that the little brown bike does not stand on its own (nor have a stand) so it either has to be held up by a child or rested in the bike rack.





I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

The mom with twins.  $9.99 price tag is a bit disappointing.  The babies can hold small items in their hands (though the ring-like toy was hard to get the baby to hold).  The stroller was a quick assembly.  Mom is rather ordinary (but she has twins so she can't afford to be extravagant).










Overall though they are two cute little sets to add on to the existing City Life.  I'm still excited to get the rest of the Daycare sets when they come out.
I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

Thank you for the review.
I love the stroller with the twins;   :love: I must look into getting that.

Lovely sets. I'd like to get the wooden scooter from the Bicycle Safety set one day. The twins are adorable, I got them as soon as they were available.
Thanks for the review!

Great review that bike safety set seems alright plenty of scope to build a good course for the kids to navigate and some interesting bikes and scooters, the outfits are nice particularly like the little boy with his nice hoodie and and the adult with that hair and jacket.

The twins look alright although I agree you don't seem to get all that much made me laugh what you said about Mum not being able to afford to be extravagant with twins poor Mum. Personally I know they're meant to be twins but, I think it's a bit of a fob off getting two babies exactly the same I'm sure they could have made them look like twins and given them slightly different outfits or something just to provide a bit of variation, maybe just me though?

Thanks for the review - I can't get over the new babies hair.... Hate it.

I think you are right DrDalek6 - it's a pain to get two exactly alike babies... They could make the shirts different, at least in terms of color...

Cute sets, thanks for the review leefert .

They are twins, how else does geobra demonstrate twins?
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Different color shirt? That'd work. For two babies in the same stroller.. same heads..

Precisely it doesn't have to be a major difference besides how else are you going to tell which twin is which if you're a tired parent
