the songs of the hit movie "Disney's High School Musical" into
your home with its popular couple--Troy and Gabriella. Ideal for
ages 8 to 12, each doll plays a song clip from the movie and
comes dressed in a cool HSM outfit.
Introducing Troy and Gabriella
With red-and-white pants, a white jacket, and red jersey, Troy
Bolton is dressed to shoot some hoops for the Wildcats.
Duplicating an authentic outfit from the movie, Troy's doll-sized
clothes are removable and easy for the little ones to slip on and
off. His arms move smoothly at the elbow--a good thing, because
Troy is not just a singer, he is also the school's star athlete.
Gabriella Montez, dressed smartly in a red dress with gold
jewelry, is coming out of her shell. Her dark hair is long enough
for little girls to style--they can pull it back in a ponytail or
even attempt a braid. However, her elbows aren't bendable and her
high heels fall off at the slightest touch. Both dolls have a
pushbutton on the back that plays the song clips when pressed.
During the testing process, the button was accidentally pressed
more than once, which caused Gabriella to sporadically break into
song. With textured hair and HSM outfits, these 12-inch dolls
possess an incredible likeness to the characters.
Duplicating outfits from the movie these dolls also play song
clips from the movie. View larger

. Not Your Average Dolls
Kids who love High School Musical will enjoy singing along with
these two. Not only do they sing a duet, they can also be played
with and dressed like a regular Barbie. As a refreshing
alternative to run-of-the-mill fashion dolls, Gabriella and Troy
have clothes that replicate the outfits in the movie. Their limbs
move smoothly: Both the dolls have posable knees that snap easily
into place and Troy's arms can move into any position. Two
separate stages (included) hold the dolls up as they sing, and
children can create a performance area. Additional High School
Musical characters are available for purchase.
The Audition
As the dolls were brought into the testing room for an impromptu
audition, it became easy to see why the musical is so popular.
Breaking Free, the song sung by both Troy and Gabriella, rings in
your ears long after the sound clip stops. The dolls can sing the
duet together, by pressing both the buttons at the same time, or
they can sing individually. Both their voices sound just like the
musical and kids will enjoy belting out lyrics with the dolls.
The sound clips are a little short in length, but their voices
are loud and a full-length song might irritate some parents.
Fitting Troy and Gabriella on their individual stages proved
difficult and Gabriella lost a shoe in the process. Despite some
minor drawbacks, these performers passed their audition with
flying colors.
