Review of Mattel Barbie Princess - Sleeping Beauty by
kineticspade
Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: none apart from hard to open loll
Well you are going to start seeing quite a few reviews of Barbie products from me, as my as my daughter has quite a collection, every time she sees something Barbie I have to buy it. So when she asked for this doll how could I refuse?
The doll came neatly packaged, and very presentable; the only problem I had was with getting the doll out of the box loll. Now I know that sounds stupid, but the amount of things they tie them to the box with is very ... ...everything out loll.
So in the box the doll came complete in a beautiful long dress, also wearing a tiara. The box also came complete with a tiara for my daughter to wear, and also a classical music cd that has never been played loll.
My daughter loves this doll, and will play with it for hours, she loves brushing her hair, and just playing with her, and pretending she's going to sleep like in the story. The good thing is also with this, when my ...

Princess Genevieve
Review of Mattel Barbie 12 Dancing Princesses Genevieve by
sarhackett
Advantages: Very pretty when new
Disadvantages: Skirt gets tangled in her hair. Skirt does not come off
Do you remember sunday afternoon's spent making your favourite barbie (or sindy) a new outfit? If you weren't that creative you could go to the shop and by a new dress for your treasured doll, all that has changed now though. My daughter had Princess Genevieve for Christmas and we all oooohed and ahhhed at her in her shapely box and beautiful clothes. My daughter had seen all the adverts on the TV for this doll, which some kindly relative bought ... ...and was beside herself with joy at receiving it. I think I was as excited as my four year old when I took her out, desperate to see how this lastest barbie piece of merchandise worked, I pressed the button on her back and was disappointed when nothing happened
'you need batteries, Mum' my baby said
So we read the instructions, utilized the screwdrivers from the christmas crackers and opened up the sections on the inner thighs of both of genevieve's ...

What a flop
Review of Mattel Barbie Tawny Horse by
kineticspade
Advantages: It does what it says
Disadvantages: its boring
My daughter really loves Barbie, and has a lot of Barbie stuff. So I thought I would buy her this for Christmas. So I struggled to find one with it been so near Christmas. I eventually found one, I did want the show jumping one, but they had all sold out so had to settle for this one. The horse is around 10-12 inches tall; I am useless at measurements loll. With a long blond main, saddle, a brush and a feeding bucket.
When my daughter opened it ... ...4 batteries, just under the horses belly, and switched it on for her.
As I have laminated flooring I thought it would be great, as I did think it might struggle to walk on a carpet. So the horse started clip clopping along the floor, it would stop then neigh, and carry on walking, that was if it did not fall over, which it did quite a few times. So now you want to know how my daughter liked the horse. Lets just say she played with it on Christmas ...
