This set was released in 2016.
Melody's Microphone Set
Item #DKH91
$38
This 1960s-style microphone amplifies girls’ voices, and has buttons to press that add an echo or fun studio sound effects: applause, cheering, and laughter. It comes with a tambourine that dolls can really hold, plus tiny sheet music with one of Melody’s favorite songs.
Requires 3 AAA batteries.
Since Melody hasn't arrived, Rebecca decided to time travel and check out what current celebrities are using to get to stardom. The microphone is slightly below chin level and the head swivels. There are four buttons: three are sound effects and one adds an echo like sound to anything that is said into the microphone.
The sheet music is just that, sheet music. I already wrinkled mine trying to get it out of the plastic. You could definitely create more doll sized sheet music by shrinking pictures from the internet. The dimensions are 2.9 x 3.9 inches.
My absolute favorite part and why I had to buy this set was for the tambourine. It is hard plastic with a rubber loop so that dolls can hold it and the jingles are actually metal and sound like a real tambourine!
Grade: B-
When Melody's collection was first released, I felt like this set was redundant to Melody's recording studio which also includes a microphone. However, this is a much cheaper and smaller alternative to the studio. I can definitely see girls having fun playing with the microphone and the sound effects, which for me does not add any value to my displays. I only bought this set for the tambourine which on it's own would have been an A. I was also sad to see the sheet music so easily wrinkled, even if though that is accurate to how real sheet music ends up after use.
