as Marzipan in the Nutcracker

Let's start off mentioning she's absolutely beautiful! Pale skin and light hair, coupled with a darling tutu of soft pastel colors, and soft tiny ballet shoes makes her appear as the perfect ballerina! I wanted to write this review specifically to let others know about her strange flexibility: Her arms and her legs have no bending joints at all, but are all left in an elegant stretch with delicate curves by the hands and feet. The arms and legs can move up an down and all around from the shoulders and hips (the legs are able to do all sorts of splits and they move fluently), but it's the BALL joint at the waist that makes this doll so delightful as a ballet doll; This joint at her waist makes Barbie able to do a number of beautiful ballet-like poses and introduces a different kind of flexibility that I've not seen ever with American dolls, especially Barbie. This joint, coupled with her long, easy to move legs, makes this doll very fun to play with! I should note the shoes, even when tied, come off easily and can get lost in no time... The top of her dress is not so secure either, so when she is doing certain dramatic poses, she'll be flashing everybody! I remedied that little problem by sewing a very simple string strap on the ballet top that goes around her neck. Her hair is also done beautifully, with some small, tight and intricate little curls! Very pretty! Definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to play with her, either roughly or however you want, because she'll hold up like any Barbie doll should!

SPOTLIGHT BARBIE is just ........ BEAUTIFUL! THERE WAS ALITTLE PROBLEM WITH THE HAIR WRAPPED AROUND THE PONLTAIL, as it arrived undone. I WILL WRAP the hair part going around THE PONYTAIL and REENFORCE IT WITH HEAVIER THREAD TO SECURE. Other than that, she is just as GORGEOUS as I remember her. The SPOTLIGHT dress is exactly as the dress I bought in my childhood. It comes with a stand that goes around her waist. There is NOTHING like the ORIGINAL BARBIE! 💟 I gave a 5 Star Review since there was just a minor hair adjustment. THANK YOU. ☺

The box got damaged. But the doll is perfect though.

I am a Barbie collector and have been fascinated by the various lovely collector-quality ballerina Barbies from such classic ballets as "Swan Lake" and "The Nutcracker". This Barbie, "Marzipan" from "The Nutcracker", is authentically dressed for the role she dances, her hair done up in a stunning style. She has real eyelashes and is fully articulated, capable of many graceful poses. She stands on her toes in her very real-looking ballet slippers with ribbons, and has one of the prettiest faces ever, with delicate porcelain-like complexion and splendid makeup. A wonderful doll for the collector, or for the young aspiring ballerina, who will just love posing her. A real winner!

Llego en perfecta condiciones, es muy bonita y diferente a las demás Barbie. Me encanto todos sus detalles. Es muy hermosa.

I was looking for a vintage style Barbie, this one was $8 & free shipping. Right look, right price, done deal.

She is just so lovely! Her hair was a bit of a mess and her necklace was kind of gunked up, but those two things were very easy to fix. Other than that, she was perfect and the shipping was fast.

I ordered the solo in the spotlight Barbie and I got it quicker than expected which is great, my only minor silly thing to say is I thought I was ordering the Blonde one and received the Brunette, not a big deal it's still great. Over all the toy company did an excellent job in filling my order and I maybe buying from them again.

50年前に父にプレゼントしてもらって大事に遊んでいたのと同じなので購入しました 可愛いしスタイルもいいしまた会えて嬉しいです あの当時の他のバービー人形にもあいたい
