Valentine's Day Gift Giving Guide -- Gifts for Kids/Tweens-- The Cody Simpson Doll (Review)-

From videos on YouTube to overnight superstardom, Cody Simpson has made it into the hearts of millions of young fans, and now they can bring their favorite singer home with them!  The Wish Factory has created a brand new line of Cody Simpson dolls available exclusively at Toys“R”Us and ToysRUs.com.

Cody Simpson, the Australian born singer and songwriter is rapidly becoming a pop idol, approaching 2 million Twitter followers, 2 million Facebook likes and over 100 million YouTube views.  The teen star came in at number 13 on Billboard’s 21 Under 21: Music’s Hottest Minor’s for 2011. Simpson is now poised to ascend even higher with the recent release of his EP, “COAST TO COAST,” which features the Top 40 smash, “On My Mind,” as well as the classic heartbreak ballad, “Not Just You.”

Fashion Doll Collection: Cody always knows how to look great with his Aussie style of jeans and a t-shirt, whether he is just hanging out or he is going out, he makes it work. Now you can help him choose his clothes with these 11½ inch fashion dolls. The fashion dolls look exactly like Cody, complete with sculpted hair made to resemble his signature side-swept surfer do. The dolls feature bendable joints and each includes a pair of shoes, sunglasses, microphone, guitar pick and lanyard.

My Thoughts:

I remember growing up asking Santa for the new must have dolls.  First, it was Michael Jackson, and then years later the must have boy band dolls, N-Sync and New Kids on Block, were the must have item for young girls.  Surprisingly, I still have my Michael Jackson and Donnie Walhberg dolls, in hopes I would have girls and be able to share with them.  And, now with two girls, I know that they will soon be asking for the new "it" dolls.  But, for now, they are still too young to "really need" these dolls, as friends have them and my girls "must have" them.  Hehehe, I remember telling my parents that I needed the whole collection of N-Sync dolls in order to be able to play with them.  But, my parents didn't want to spend all that money on the dolls, accessories, etc., only for me to play with the dolls for a short time and then put away, as the next must have doll would be available.


But, right now, the must have doll that I saw many young girls and tweens going crazy for this past holiday was the Cody Simpson doll. Not familiar with Cody Simpson?  Then, you must not have girls!  Cody Simpson has been all over the television and is played constantly on the radio.  Every time his songs come on the radio or while my daughter is listening to the Disney Radio app, she goes crazy dancing and smiling.  I can't believe how she gets giddy over Cody, like so many other girls do.  I can only imagine how I was as a young girl, screaming with excitement every time my favorite boy bands were on television or playing on the radio.


If Santa didn't bring your daughter a Cody Simpson doll, from the Wish Factory, this past holiday, why not consider surprising her with one of the two dolls in the the Cody Simpson collection for Valentine's Day.  She will be over the moon when you hand it to her, as was Savannah.  She just loves her Cody doll, dressed in a casual t-shirt and jeans.  Even his hair is sculpted to resemble his true side swept surfer do.
