Pinypons are a series of collectable, interchangeable figures which were launched in March 2016 from Bandai. Pinypons can be customised in so many different ways, changing the characters clothes, hair styles and accessories. You can even change the facial expression of each pinypon by turning the head around and have them smiling, winking or frowning. Some pinypons even come with animals!

There is also a fairytale collection range of pinypons including little red riding hood, Mary poppins and Pinocchio. From June 2016, there will be a fairytale house for each of them ,too! Pinypon are also bringing out a princess range of figures, too.


We were sent a great collection of Pinypons to review. First of all we set up the pinypons fairy tree, Ellie's thoughts were "This looks magical and so cute! I can't wait to set it up and show the pinypons".
It was easy enough to set up and comes with easy to follow instructions. I did need to help Ellie with this as she is only eight years old.

The Pinypon fairies tree comes with all the pieces you need to make the tree itself, it also contains a little swing and a fairy, too! Ellie could not wait to take the fairy out of the packaging "Oh my goodness, she is SO cute! I LOVE her wings" Ellie told me very excitedly.


Putting together the fairy tree was easy enough. All the parts just clip and click into place. We followed the instructions and it was put together within 5 minutes. We noticed there are little holes in parts of tree and little flowers and accessories clip in those holes. Ellie loved decorating the fairy tree with the little flowers, hearts, stars and butterflies!

Ellie enjoyed putting all the little flowers together and clicking them into place on the tree! She thought the butterflies and hearts were rather cute! It was easy enough for her to decorate the tree in which way she wanted it.

The pinypon fairy tree is priced at £14.99 and comes with it's very own fairy and everything you need to decorate the tree, including stickers, which Ellie insisted had to be stuck to the tree.
The fairy tree also has little plastic stumps in which the fairy and other pinypons can be placed.
The pinypons have little holes in there feet and fit into the stumps perfectly.

Next we opened the pinypon figures and pet. Ellie was all "Oh my goodness!!! THIS IS SO CUTE" She seriously couldn't contain her excitement. You get one pinypon figure, some little accessories and a pet included in each pack. Each Pinypon figure and pet set costs just £4.99.  Ellie opened the Pinypon more tales figure next. She noticed it was little red riding hood and the big bad wolf! "I love her little basket" Ellie told me. This soon became her absolute favourite! The Pinypon tale figures include a fairytale figure and animal along with some accessories. These are also priced at just £4.99 each.

Next up are the single pinypon and blind bags. Pinypon single figures are priced at £2.99 and again, the pack includes a single pinypon figure and accessories.
Each pinypon has holes in her hair, hands and middle, which means you can change the accessories to whatever you pick. The pinypons themselves are made from hard plastic and are very bright and vibrand in colour! The details are awesome! They're very good quality and they are so pretty and cute (Ellie's words "pretty and cute").


The holes in the pinypon's feet fit perfectly onto the little plastic stumps on the fairy tree and swing.
Ellie opened all her pinypons. Once she'd opened them all she wanted to dress them up how she pleased. The pinypons all come apart and some of the clothes come off, you can also swap and change the accessories and even the hair! You can literally mix and match everything.
There are two faces on each pinypon, one on the front and one on the back! This is great because it means each pinypon can have a different face expression.They come apart easily and fit back together perfectly too. Each pinypon is the same size.
The hair covers the face on the back of the pinypons head. Again, the hair also fits all sizes, making it simple enough to swap and change each piece of hair on any pinypon. You can't tell that there is a face under the hair and makes it easy to change!
Each blind bag pinypon also comes with accessories and a figure, too! The thing with blind bags in there's a surprise and many to collect! Ellie enjoyed opening each blind bag not knowing what figure she would get next! It was a a lot of fun. The accessories fit perfectly into the holes on the figures. One size fits all - again, making it easy to make your very own, unique character. Ellie's favourite accessories are changing the hair clips and bags or flowers!
"Look mummy, she's winking! I love this face expression" Ellie said to me. She was so excited about the face expressions and how they can very easily be changed.
We have had hours upon hours of fun dressing the pinypons, swapping and changing clothes, hair, accessories and even facial expression! The accessories are also made from hard plastic and fit perfectly. You can make your pinypon as unique as you please with endless and many options. Each pinypon has holes in her feet (as do the pets) so they can fit onto, and stand on whichever accessory (The fairy house for example). A pinypon carriage and pinypon house is also available.
Ellie enjoys playing with these and likes how they all match and how the clothes and accessories fits every pinypon. She also told me how they're all friends and how little red riding hood is happy to have friends! She really uses her imagination whilst playing with these toys and I'm all for encouraging her with her imaginative play! The pinypons really do inspire Ellie's imagination!
Ellie said "I love that you ca mix and match all the body parts and hair. I LOVE the changable faces and I really like how brightly coloured they are. The little animals are cute, too!" She has literally had hours upon hours of fun with Pinypons. 
Pinypon also has a new magazine which is in shops now. The magazine comes with accessories - stickers, a whistle and a few other bits and bobs. The magazine is full of activities and information about pinypons!

I'd recommend Pinypons to any child that enjoys little figures and accessories aged 4 and above (bear in mind, the pinypons contain small parts). The is so much imaginative fun to be had! Pinypons are very affordable, there are many to collect and can be purchased from the Toy Entertainer Store.
