my 10 yr old HAD to have this doll she got it for Christmas last year she loves it a lot and added this to her collections of mattel
The wings seem surprisingly durable, even after accidentally bending the opposite direction they were meant to when stuffed in her backpack. When she's played with it in public places, she attracted lots of new friends who want to see the doll. My 4-year-old daughter received this doll for Christmas, and we were all fascinated by how beautiful and majestic it was with the wings on. The plastic coupling where wings connect to doll has been surprisingly strong too. Even now, a month later, it's one of her favorite dolls to play with. She has never been able to put the wings on by herself because the plastic coupling is complicated for a 4-year-old, but I've been able to snap them on pretty easily, and my 9-year-old niece has also figured it out after some practice. The way the wings act is an awkward design feature - the wings fold in a couple of places and snap together so they are about half-size, and there is a button on the back of the doll that releases the wings so they open to full size, but only if the doll's arms are out of the way - best if arms are extended straight above her head. These days my daughter prefers to leave the wings off because they get in the way of the doll's ability to sit in barbie cars, but no other barbie is as unique as this doll, so it's still my daughter's favorite.
I bought this for my grandaughter and she loves it. Very pleased with the fast shipping and overall toy.
A beautiful doll, but one of the wings never clipped on. My daughter became very frustrated, and she's had a lopsided doll for the last year. I'm glad I bought it on sale last Christmas and didn't pay $18. I paid less than $10, so I was ok with the defective doll.
I bought this doll as a Christmas gift for my 3yr old niece. I've seen the doll and the wings are really big, but very beautiful. She LLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS it. Since she got it, she's been sleeping with the doll:) My sister (her mother) tells me that everyday she combs the hair and dresses her up. While visiting, my niece kept asking me to take off and put on the wings. It's a little hard for her to do it herself, but besides that, the doll was a great buy:)
