Horse Riding Barbie


Although Mattel has seriously lost ground as far as quality/durability is concerned, they still have great play ideas. This horse riding Barbie makes a great human for your Mattel, Breyer, Hartland or Marx large size horse. Her clothing is not nearely as well made as it would have been 20 years earlier, no hems, no shirt, etc. but we expect that nowadays. Oh Barbie, my Barbie, how far your star has fallen! Mattel, Mattel, wake up-before it's too late! Only Hearts Club Dolls clothing just put these to shame! My Barbie/Ken outfits from the 1960's will STILL last years longer than the outfits Mattel gives us today. sigh.Get more detail about Horse Riding Barbie.

BARBIE Collector Pink Label Barbie 2008 This instant


This is an OK doll, but just OK... honestly, how special can another Barbie doll in pink really be? I guess if you're new to collecting something like this might rock your world, but it's such a cliche at this point, and with Barbie struggling for survival, I don't understand why they keep going back to ideas like this...

Designer: "Look, Executive! Another Barbie in pink!"

Executive: "Good Designer! Good boy!" Pets Designer and gives him doggie training treat...

I wouldn't have bought this if it hadn't been on sale. I mean, there's plenty else to pick from, and for the price the skirt fabric is awfully stiff. She has nice earrings... and yes, she has panties, but who spends all their time looking up a doll's skirt anyway? The drive by media loves to make an issue out of Barbie and underwear from time to time, but other than that, you'll forget she came with underwear whether you leave her NRFB, or you take her out to re-dress.

Ah well... in the end it comes down to whether or not this is your taste. If it is, you'll probably enjoy it. She makes a nice addition to my fantasy display, but otherwise I'm pretty blah on this one, and I think a lot of other people will be as well.Get more detail about BARBIE Collector Pink Label Barbie 2008.

Barbie Collector Tooth Fairy- Caucasian Best Quality


I ordered this Barbie for my 6 year old for Christmas because she loves the tooth fairy and still has many teeth to lose--it comes with a pouch to put under your pillow when you lose a tooth. My daughter still carries her around and plays with her. She comes with a stand for so she can easily display her Barbie on the shelf. Very pretty outfit but fragile. It is more for displaying if you don't want the dress torn. Make-up is nicely done, I think it's the prettiest doll she has.
