Review: "My little girl loves the My Little Pony movie, she was so happy to get this Sunny toy and be able to sing along with her favourite character. Great for any child who enjoys the movie, particularly if they're a bit of a superstar in training themselves! The only negative is that it needs 5 batteries, which seems a lot, but will see how long they last."
