Product Description
This colorful pop-up environment is the perfect place for playing with all your favorite action figures. Kids create all the action, and the Play-Around Environment places them right in the center of it all. In this ship-shaped play area, your child can imagine that he's the notorious Captain Jack Sparrow, giving orders to a motley crew of pirate action figures. Portholes and surrounding blue "water" add to the fun.The Play-Around features pockets for storing action figures and accessories. A tunnel port provides crawl-through fun. Patented EZ-Twist technology allows the structure to fold down to less than a quarter of its size and makes setup a snap. Action figures not included. Measures 40"x 36" x 33"H.

 Do NOT buy this product December 26, 2006

My son got this for Christmas from the Disney Store. Everything we have ever purchased from the Disney Story has been high quality. However, this product is total garbage. The poles don't fit into the play hut. And when I tried to make them fit, the fabric ripped. He's had it out of the box for less than an hour and already the fabric is ripped in 4 places. If your son plays rough like my son does, do NOT buy this product. Such a disappointment because he was really looking forward to playing with all his action figures in this tent. If this would let me give it no stars, I would.
Looks great, but made cheaply December 3, 2006

My 4 yr old is really into Pirates and received this as a birthday gift. It is a really cool looking play around, and he was very excited to play with it. However....
The fabric this item is made with is extremely cheap. Within 1 week the sleeves that hold the poles at the bottom of either side of the play around ripped. This causes the poles to slide out of their holders and the entire play around to collapse. We duct taped each of these sleeves (if you can't fix it - duct it!) which has helped a little. However, now we have a Pirate ship with four duct tape gray corners.
The poles are very easy for children to remove, which is exactly what they do. More often than not, instead of having a play around, the kids pull out the tent poles and use them as swords to have sword fights (not exactly the safest thing).
I was very disappointed in this item. It had a lot of promise, but poor quality and design have made it eligible for the trash heap. Every "Pirates of the Caribbean" item we've purchased, unfortunately, has been similar. It seems Disney only licensed the cheapest manufacturers on these toys.
 Poor quality tent poles October 16, 2006

Purchased from KB, both the tent poles were broken before it was put together (one snapped, one split). The poles were made like a traditional pop-up tent--short pieces of plastic with metal collars, with elastic holding them all together. We replaced them with 1/2" plastic pipe, which worked but still an expense we didn't intend to incur when purchasing the unit. Obviously, it's not going to go back in the original box for storage. Otherwise, the toy is made from a non-woven fabric with lots of "Pirates of the Caribbean" symbols printed on it. I'm going to have to iron it to get the "ocean" fabric to lie flat, hope our grandson appreciates the effort.
