Toys and Games Reviews of Radica Girl Tech My Photo BoothCustomer Review: WHERE'S THE FILM????? Summary: 2 Stars
My grade-school aged daughter loves this camera. It is always out and ready for when a friend comes over or she just gets the impulse to take a photo. I am happy because that is exactly how the toy is intended to be used.
BUT - When I purchased this item I ASSUMED that something as common as Polaroid film would be easy to find - but it is near impossible and I live in New York City!!! She got the gift over winterbreak - after the film ran out I set out for what I thought would be a quick trip to purchase more film. It took about three days and about 15 stores to find it. Then I stock piled as much as it as my greedy hands could get hold of - which was a pathetic two boxes. And you know what? It is not cheap film. I also bought some of the sticky film (which is a neat idea) but it DOES NOT fit in the machine - and you can't return opened film. That was a waste.
I don't know how polaroid keeps selling izone cameras when the film used for these cameras is near impossible to find!
Except for this film issue - I love it, she loves it and I would recommend it to anyone....but not having film for a camera is a BIG hurdle to overcome!
Description of Radica Girl Tech My Photo BoothGreat fun at slumber parties or when just bumming around with pals, this freestanding camera operates like a real photo booth and takes instant pictures of the whole gang. The tabletop unit is fairly big, standing about 9-1/2 inches tall, but, considering its capabilities, is still pretty portable. The photo booth uses Polaroid i-Zone technology and comes with a starter pack of six strips of instant i-Zone pocket film. Film strips feed through the slot on top of the photo booth and must be loaded separately for each picture. The photo booth tilts forward or backward for the best picture angle and has a mirrored screen so girls can vogue in front of it to see what looks best before snapping their shot. Once film is loaded, girls pull down the side handle and have about 6 seconds to get into their pose before the flash goes off. Once the picture is taken, girls can pull the strip out the slot and watch the photo fully develop. My Photo Booth also accepts i-Zone pocket sticker film or pocket fortune film as replacement film. This miniature photo booth uses four "AA" batteries?two for the flash and two for the timer?and is covered by a 90-day limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
