Nice game, but needs a little quality improvement
Posted 3/14/2010 by Nancy Hannan

Rating:

We received the Circa Baseball set in a timely manner, and when my son put it together for his birthday, he was very happy. Unfortunately, when he got ready to play, we discovered that the spring for the "pitcher" wasn't screwed into its post, so it took about 15 minutes for us to figure out how to line up the screw with the hole and screw it in. We have had to retighten this screw three times within the first two days. Then after using the toy for only one evening and one day, we discovered that the bat had become quite wobbly. I don't believe this can be fixed. It still works, though, and overall is quite fun. I guess we'll try to send it back to get it fixed if it becomes unworkable. Overall, a great product, just wish it had a little better quality control before shipping.

Nice Game.

Toy is fun, a little difficult to play, but I guess that makes it a challenge. Nicely crafted toy, which is really the reason my son wanted it.

Not exactly what I expected
Posted 8/7/2008 by Margaret M Crawford-Ryan

Rating:

This product felt rough and the craftsmanship was not so great. My husband sanded off the side of the shooting alley. (I don't know what this is called, but the long alley-shaped area through which you first shoot the ball is too thin for the ball. The balls got stuck in the alley before turning the corner into the game.) This made it feel cheap and put together rather shoddily. Perhaps it will last long, but that remains to be seen.

My children have had fun playing the game because they love baseball; however, it is quite difficult to get a "hit" because of the set up of the board. Also, within minutes the screw that holds the spring in place to pitch the ball backed out enough so it would not work properly. Poor design.

My son loves the game, but it only comes with two balls and I can envision one or both getting lost sooner or later.

Review for Circa Baseball
Posted 6/12/2008 by Randy W. Hunt

Rating:

Over 40 years ago my brother and I had a similar game made of plastic. Wood is better. Looks better, smells better, sounds better. It's in my office. Visitors can't resist taking a swing. It may be a mass produced product, but I think it is a work of art.

Great Product
Posted 12/26/2007 by Jessica M. Smith

Rating:

The product was a little smaller than I had expected, but it was very fun. It is great quality for the price and also adds to the nostalgia of America's favorite pastime!

So far we all like it! Seems like it will be a toy that will hold their interest for a long time. I like the fact that it is wooden and not plastic as that will make it last longer, too.

This toy has a great antique look and feel to it. It is a little smaller than I thought it would be, but that's ok.

Gift for grandson. He and sister play with it and love it! Little smaller than I'd hoped; but in the right price range.

Game is well made. It looks like an antique but is very useable. It is nice to see a toy that isn't electronic or requires batteries.

This is a great toy. It's great to look at, fun to play, and also provides a great whiff of vintage baseball nostalgia. How can you beat that?

Love the game! We had to open it and play even though it is for a Christmas gift. It repackages very well by the way.

We have gotten rave reviews from the new owner of this game! My friend said that her 7 year old son plays with it constantly and absolutely loves it! I plan on buying one for my 7 year old son for the holidays.

Good Fun
Posted 10/3/2007 by Mrs M. Thomson

Rating:

It's a fun and a nice looking toy. My six year old loves it. Also, it is good to have a good old traditional game instead of the flashy electronics that stores sell now days.

The Box Looked Good!

The box looked good! I bought this to donate to the Salvation Army Christmas toy program, but I think a 9 year old boy is going to be very happy on Christmas morning!

This was a gift. Not only did the child love the game, he and my child thought of new ways to play with it by using multiball baseball. This is the perfect gift for any child who likes baseball but whose parents want to have a non-electric game.

Review of Circa Baseball
Posted 9/6/2006 by Kate

Rating:

I bought this for my 7 year old nephew who just started playing T-ball. Not only did he love it, but my brother (his father) also was tough to pry from it. I wish they included a few more marble balls though because one had already been lost by the time I left. Otherwise, it's an entertaining product that doesn't make those annoying toy sounds!
