Toys and Games Reviews of Pixel Chix Love 2 Shop Mall: Salon & Pet Shop
Customer Review: Our fun little Chix!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Got this toy along with one of the two story houses for my four year old after a whole year of her begging... she and I sit side by side playing (I'm 38)! I think the Pixel Chix is tons of fun! The lines in the screen have appeared for me as well, but only once, and only when I tried to link the two sets while the toys were on (so turn the toys off prior to linking, and then no problem). Sure, this is not The Sims... but hey, what a cute, quirky little toy for not a ton of cash! She's a bit sassmouthed... but I'd say 99% of the time the dialog makes me smile (especially now that my little girl is repeating her Chix's "YIKES" - TOO FUNNY!!). These toys are big fun in a wee package, so go for it... we're looking to buy a couple more sets... because my husband wants his own to play (boys just don't want to wait their turn, do they!). So... my conclusion... fun for your girl, won't numb mommy or daddy mind like some toys... this is a solid purchase! Enjoy!Customer Review: Problems w/toy

My daughter received the Salon & Pet Shop as a gift from her grandparents for Christmas. During shopping mode, only half of the girl's body would display so that you could not see what she was pointing at. We returned it to Amazon, and they sent a replacement. We never could get the replacement out of demo mode, so my daughter was unable to play with it. We also returned this item and are awaiting resolution of our problem. So far Amazon's customer service has been great regarding the problem. My daughter is hoping for a refund so that she can buy something else as a gift from her grandparents for Christmas.
We also cannot understand how we could receive two items in a row that would not work. My daughter has had a Pixel Chix house for years, and it has always worked properly. Mattel must have a manufacturing problem with the Love 2 Shop Mall.
Customer Review: Great , but not as great as it seems.

I like this pixel chix mall, but many people didn't like this one. Some people were over reacting, because they said "I did all there was to do in 5 minutes." I like my mall, but i've done basicly everything. I don't care, i love it. It's a fun thing to do when you're in sick, traveling, or bored. I think they over estimated it just a little. I think there should be levels, like someone metioned. It's odd how people like the other mall SO much more than this mall. Well, i might buy the food court and boutiqe one and connect it to the other. I think the recomended age should have been for 6-12 cause i'm 11 and i just got it. I still like the mall better than the car and i think the house too. I enjoy this toy and it's fun, but if you get it... know it's not quite as good as it seems.Customer Review: Reasonable Price, Poor Quality
Summary: 3 Stars
I picked this up on Amazon as a last minute gift for my little girl...and she was increadibly excited to get it. She loved playing with it on Christmas day. It worked fine that first day...but, by the second day, she came carrying it to me compaining of glitches in the picture. The Pixel Chick's body wasn't lining up. The only way we seem to be able to fix it is to shut it down and restart it...which lasts for just a few minutes. Then the problem returns. Unfortunately, it's just no fun when a toy is that troublesome. She won't play with it any longer, and it's a week old.Customer Review: This is kind of a dumb toy.

My daughter and I both thought that Pixel Chix were neat, so I bought one for her and my neice. The novelty quickly wore off. Basically, the chix work to earn money and buy cute stuff through problem solving and mini-games. Unfortunately, the programming is poor and it becomes extremely repetitive.
Both girls prefer Bratz Diamonds for the GameBoy Advance. The game has the same premise, but is by far superior to the pixel chix.
