New Barbie- What are your opinions?
« on: Wednesday 19 October 2011, 11:56 pm »
Alright everyone, here we go!  What are your opinions?!?!
Here is the article:

Personally I like her- I feel like people are so diverse I enjoy diversity in dolls as well so children are not so surprised if their parents don't look that way and they see someone who does.  If their parents have colored hair and tattoos it is fun to have a barbie that is similar to them! :-)

I don't think many kids get those $50 Barbies as toys.

I am not a barbie collector but I like her a lot. It is different but it is cool to me that they are trying some thing new like this.

OMG, I LOVE her!!!!
My husband just looked at this and said 'That looks like you!'

My hair is blonde, though not pink (unfortunately).

Her clothes are awesome.

I love her dog - I have one of those. They came in little boxes with a food bowl!

I don't understand the controversy; to me she looks just like a normal girl these days.

Beautiful face paint too.

I wish I was able to figure out what the "hot toy" was going to be- I mean she was sold online for $50 and people are making a pretty penny on her!! Crazy!
