Review: Muy bonita muñeca y buen precio.
Review: Underbar Barbie docka! Jättekul att hon är inspirerad av den första Barbie dockan Mattel lanserade! Hennes hår var jättefint och satt jättefint i en hästsvans som på originalet. Annars på andra dockor kan håret vara fult redan i förpackningen men hennes hår var inte det. Hon kom i en kartong och inte i en papperspåse, vilket var bra. Kartongen var jättefin och inga skador.

## Features

- ​Designed to reflect the world kids see today, this diverse line of Barbie Fashionistas dolls showcases bright and trendy styles that make for endless storytelling possibilities.
- ​Introducing the first ever blind Barbie Fashionistas doll! Barbie partnered with the American Foundation for the Blind to design a doll that accurately portrays someone who is blind or has low vision.
- ​She wears a satiny pink blouse and sparkly, ruffled skirt made with a fun-to-touch fabric! Strappy lavender heels add an extra note of style savviness to her sweet look.
- ​The brightly colored, high-contrast closures on the back of her top and on her skirt's waistband make it easier to dress Barbie doll!
- ​Her silvery aviator sunglasses are not only super cool -- they're practical too! The "lenses" shield her eyes from UV rays when it's sunny.
- ​Barbie uses her white cane as she explores the city. It's an important complement to her day-to-night outfit, which is perfect for a fun-filled weekend with friends!
- ​From articulated arms that make using the cane a breeze, to packaging that features the word "Barbie" in Braille, this Blind Fashionistas doll is lovingly designed in every way.

Diese Barbie-Puppe überzeugt durch ihre hochwertige Verarbeitung und liebevoll gestalteten Details. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das weiche, gut kämm- und frisierbare Haar, das sich ideal für kreative Rollenspiele eignet. Die Kleidung ist sauber genäht und lässt sich leicht an- und ausziehen – ein Pluspunkt für kleine Kinderhände. Meine Tochter war sofort begeistert und spielt täglich damit. Insgesamt ein sehr gelungenes Produkt, das sowohl optisch als auch qualitativ überzeugt. Klare Kaufempfehlung.
