to be astonished no one has owned up to owning a Barbie fairy Topia remote doll?

[LowFat]

I posted in products to see if anyone had one, and despite shameless self-bumping no one has replied.

I though Barbie was really popular!

Haven't got one LowFat but they sound cool, what do they do?

I think DD1 had one last year but between DD1 and DD2 they pulled her apart. Is she the one that lights up?

My dd has a fairytopia doll I think but it's not a remote one - whatever they are.

I think i might have one! Bought one in boots half price a couple of months ago and have put it away for dd Christmas present. Are you talking about the Barbie that can be used with a DVD game as a remote control?

We've only just started letting DD have barbie (wicked parents that we are ) so this was a bit disapointing.

DD wanted to watch the

Our daughter got it from her grandparents for her birthday, but we have not actually played the game. She is only 5, and is more of an active player than a computer player if that makes any sense.

We got one and had exactly the same problems as you- it would work for a coupl eof minutes then stop. IT was really annoying so dd just uses it as a BArbie now
