Girls love it

Barbie dolls for my girls are their favorites. But add fairies and my 8 year old absolutely won't stop playing with them and she goes into her fantasy castle.

Pretty cute Barbie with basically no special features

This is a basic Barbie that doesn't have any special feature other than how she looks. She has a super cute look, with a moulded starry bodice and removeable skirt. She also has wings that attach via a plastic waist band and can be removed. One thing my little testers immediately liked is that when you remove the skirt (why do kids always do this first?) it looks like she's wearing leotard, so she can be an athlete too! Albeit a sparkly one.

She doesn't have any moveable bends in elbows or knees and his blue coloured (presumably supposed to look like pantyhose) tights.

Removing her from the box is not too difficult, she's tied on with elastic and plastic ties which can be most easily cut with a nail clipper or pet nail clipper. Like other dolls I've tried, she (baffingly) has plastic anchors in her head which are a nightmare to cut without accidentally trimming her hair.

I feel like she doesn't offer much other than inspiration and imagination, but those who love fairies will adore her anyway and she's a hit with children who love the fantastical and sparkling.

My only complaint would be that her shoes in the product pictures are shown as beautifully transparent, but on the doll they are an ugly white that makes the details muddy and looks out of place. Other than that, she does exactly what she promises, looks pretty and magical.
