A work of art
I'm half cambodian and I'm very satisfied that the doll really looks like a replica of cambodian princesses. I'm amazed of the detail work on the dress and how the jewelry are well made. I bought one for my daughter and soon to buy more for family members.

A beautiful doll
I think this is a great portrayal of traditional Cambodian women.My sister and niece have this doll and I thought it was great.Very feminine and elegant looking princess doll.

A Beautiful Doll
When my friend bought me the Princess of Cambodia Barbie Doll, all I could say was "WOW! What a beautiful doll! Where did you get it?" I am planning to buy more to give to people I know whom would love it as much as I do. I didn't even know that Barbie Princess Collection even existed. I like how there is a brief description of the traditional "sampot" and culture on the back of the box. I am going to start collecting Dolls of the World 'The Princess Collection'. I am looking forward to see more Barbie Princess Colletion from different countries. ... Read more

I HATE IT!!!
This doll is a waist of money. If I would go back in time and know about this doll, I would think about flushing MY money down the toylet before buying this HUNK OF JUNK!

A Beautiful Character Study
I saw her in the store today. I just had to get her. She is very good education, the clothes are realistic to the time period as well. I thought she looked so gorgeous. I love herface, whicht he photo makes look European. But my doll is very Asian looking. She is the only WORLD doll i have. I only am getting the Asian ones, they are the mos beautiful.

Anyway you wont be very dissapointed in her. She is beautiful.

One flaw is that her hands are in a 90 degree angle for good.
Her legs can bend. The suit is one piece.

i give it on a scale from 1 to 10
9/10

fantastic doll.

A bit dissappointed at first, but then....
When I first saw the picture on amazon I thought this doll was a *must have* for any Barbie collector. When she arrived, though, I admit I was dissapointed that I didn't get that same "Wow" effect. However, after a few minutes of checking her out I determined I was indeed thrilled with my purchase! Being that I collect the Princess Dolls of the World collection, (and would have bought her anyway) I must say she is definitely one of the nicer dolls in the collection (and I am even considering buying a second to remove from the box!) Her hair, though not braided like in the pic Amazon shows, is indeed long (maybe somewhat braided or wavy, it's hard to tell) but gorgeous!. The dress (if you open the box) is not as nice,all one piece as opposed to the way it looks in the pic, but sadly, these DOTW dolls are simply a cheaper end doll and for the price, the dress is fine... overall I would give her 5 out of 5 stars for her appearance. The face looks more unique than many of the other Princess dolls and I personally think she does have a foreign look to her. Her eyes are hazel and her lips a nice dark color, her skin is also not so pale as typical barbie and definitely next to the Russian Princess, you can see her skin is certainly darker (perhaps not truly olive, like most Italians I know, but definitely not white). The box is a dissappointment on these as well. The new design makes them easier to open, however, most collectors will not even do that! I think it allows for dust to creep in easier..and when I did (I couldn't resist) open this one up I noticed the inner 'box' with the Italy backdrop on it was starting to warp already!? Brand new, huh...what will it look like in, say, 5 years!? Hmm... All in all, a must have for the DOTW Princess collector and a even a nice doll for any little girl (or big girl) to remove and play with! ... Read more

"Oh, Sandy..."
Barbie continues to bridge the gap between straightforward Barbiephiles and movie memorabilia fanatics with another great "Barbie as" doll. This is Barbie as Sandy (Olsson), from the 1978 hit movie musical about the 50s, "Grease." The scene is "Tell me more," and this is the second fantastic doll in Barbie's "Grease" collection. This doll looks every bit as gorgeous as Olivia Newton-John did in her most famous role, wearing a yellow skirt and cardigan, white blouse, belt, and shoes, and an adorable 1950s hairstyle, complete with flowery hair ornaments. This is the Sandy I was in love with when I was a kid, not that tramped out, Peggy Bundy version from the end of the film, ha. A necessary addition to the collection of any "Grease" or Barbie fan, or even someone who just thinks Olivia Newton-John was a hottie as Sandy. *ahem* Dare we hope for a "Xanadu" collection in the future?

great pop culture collectible
Although it does not emit a great amount of educational value, this doll is a great addition to anyone's collection.It looks exactly like Olivia Newton-John from Grease.Anyone who is interested in doll collecting and pop culture would love her.The only flaw is that it does not offer accessories or added special touches for the amount you are being asked to pay.

Just a plain looking doll to me?
The doll has a nice outfit on, but when i saw her in the toy store i was not impressed considering she is a collector doll and all.Her face looks like a $10 dollar mold doll, okay even $15 dollars but they usually drop after that looking doll.Nothing special here.I would stay away unless you are just into collecting mint dolls. ...

The Best Doll
Poison Ivy IS AMAZING! OMG I THINK THAT WHOEVER DOES NOT OWN HER SHOULD BuY HER (She will look great with my Barbie as Typhoid Mary)

Poison Ivy is just GORGEOUS!
I love the Barbie as Poison Ivy doll! She is just beautifully done! The face that gorgeous red hair and voluminous too! They should have given Wonder Woman that much hair too. I have Barbie as Wonder woman, (2004's Mattel's version) Batgirl and Catwoman. All I need now is Supergirl. But i'm not too crazy for the new Supergirl costume. I love the costume more closer to Superman. By the way does anyone know if they are making Ken versions of the male superheroes? ie: Superman, Batman and Robin? That would be really cool!Anyway if you are a collector by Poison Ivy it's worth it!

Red hair, green eyes -- what's not to love.
Poison Ivy has long curly red hair that is beautiful in the display box, but also meant for play.Her shiny long green gloves, boots, and bathing beauty leotard really do shimmer in the light.She is also wearing pale green fishnet tights.

No piercings, no nail polish, but wears a green ivy necklace that clings to all the right curves.Her green suitcase has a handle that Barbie could actually hold, with a picture on on it that does not do justice to this beauty.

This price is right for play, customizing, or disply.Though this is not considered a collectible doll, she is, in my opinion, the best of the character dolls.

She's so lovely!
I am a barbie collector and let me just say this doll is simply gorgeous! She sits in her chair really classy and her hair is so cute with the cat ears sticking up.

This doll is made for adults. Wouldn't reccomend giving it to a child under 14.

Good to see mattel making more ethnic dolls that are true to form!

BEAUTIFUL
My wife is a doll collector. She collects dolls of all kinds.This doll represents a black panther really well.The other kitty doll for some reason .. to me..just doesn't look like she's in her element.

WOW! What a beautiful face.
The lounge Kitty Barbies are so much fun to pose and actually the chaise lounge that accompanies this Kitty is lip shaped. This black barbie is so beautiful, and I'm very glad to see that they've used the Princess Of South Africa face mold on this doll as it is more authentic and realistic. I just love the one piece costume with it's leather and suede like materials. Of the two Kitties the black doll really steals the show. Over all this doll gets 5 stars, and she is a must have. ...

Stunning!!!
The photos of this doll do not do her justice.I bought the entire collection and she was last on my list because I just wasn't impressed with her image.But when I unwrapped her at home, I was amazed at how beautiful she was in person.Out of the three dolls, her looks maintain a sweetness mixed with the exotic.I always thought the shoe-chair was pretty cool too.

A unique idea
I thought this Barbie was very different and I liked the unique facial painting.It's good that Mattel is getting more creative.

Hmmm........???????
This is the worst collectors idea ever!!! Who came up with dis????!!!! A Barbie in a cat costume on a shoe shaped chair....alright then.......???????? ... Read more

Editorial Review

Skipper, Barbie’s kid sister, just barely passes as "Velma," the dowdy egghead from hit 70s cartoon "Scooby Doo." She’s a bit taller and thinner than the "real" Velma, but who else would try this? Barbie herself wouldn’t take the assignment, after she got one look at that orange-and-red monstrosity of an outfit. If the scruffy turtleneck or rolled knee socks didn’t make Babs say "ruh-roh!" the pleated mini-skirt sans undies would. So brave little Skipper is left to the task of wearing the stuff, holding up her mushroom hairdo in pride (or is she just trying to keep her over-sized spectacles from falling off?). She does, however, verify her identity as Velma by bringing along a velveteen version of Scooby-Doo (complete with Scooby snacks), and her trusty reporter’s notepad.--Diane Beall ... Read more

Scooby-Doo Review
This toy is a funny great weird toy. The good things about this is the Scooby-Doo action figure,The toy shoes are funny ,and the socks are ok. The bad things are the weird dress,the weird glasses and the,REALLY REALLY CREEPY HAIR ITS AS STICKY AS DOUNUT GLASE BUT WON'T COME OF AND THE SHAPE THEY PUT IT IN MAKES IT LOOK LIKE A UNBRELLA WITHOUT THE POST.

Nerd
I agree- They turned Skipper into a nerd!! She looks like a geek from some high school in some ritch town- Really. she is a helmet headed nerd faced geek!!

Scoobariffic!!
I don't know why everyone had given this doll a bad review,I think she is absolutely adoreable!She has the cutest yellow stocking and platform shoes.My daughter loves Scooby Doo and she loves this doll.I will admit the hair is a little weird but Velma is supposed to be a nerd isn't she?Any way it is a cute doll for a great Price.I reccomend it to anyone who loves Scooby Doo! ...

Yeah! Vote Barbie for Presedent!! :)
Totally sweeet! Barbie would make a much better presedent than like George W. Bush...(Just a joke):) She's one cool gal!
Later*peace

Madame President is wearing what??
Yes, we've thankfully gotten beyond the tight business suit which the 2000 version had (thus now enabling President Barbie to decisively move around her Oval Office) but it does not look like a 21st century women's powersuit either. Rather, it looks like something that might be worn on a 'vacation' (including the inevitable staged appearance).

Since President Barbie is also presumably encouraging girls to think about both photo ops AND policymaking, she should have been given a powersuit wardrobe. This will enable her to be taken seriously when she faces the Barbieworld Congress to advocate on behalf of girl rights.

In a world where grown women now have a wide variety of attractive business clothes to choose from (yes, including some oulfits with pants!), it seems weird that a toy publically intending to help kids think about their futures is fixated on past stereotypes of what is 'dressy' and what is 'casual'. Pants do not automatically mean casual lounging anymore.

Since Barbie also has pantsuits, surely the design team could have done better with this product. I like the other materials she comes with, but think that President Barbie is due for some serious wardrobe consulting.

Barbie is ready to take over the world!
I actually own the African American version of this doll, but there is not place to make a comment on her as of yet, so I will go ahead and make my comment here.

This doll is really pretty (African American Version) she stands proud and eager to talk to America. This doll's outfit is really nice (About time she has on pants!) and the bag and eye glasses are really classy. The box is really well put together as there is a Stand with 3 microphones for her to make her speech.

Great for the Collector and great for the little girl interested in politics. ... Read more

A very pretty doll!
I am happy with this purchase. I am not the craziest over the gown but this doll looks amazing redressed (and the gown is not that bad). Yes, I buy these dolls to remove from the box. This dolls has gorgeous pale porcelain skin and the thin collectible twist and turn body (as opposed to the belly button bodies the playline and SOME collectibles have- this means her hips are just a little bit slimmer). Her skin is gorgeous and I LOVE her light brown, softly wavy hair. Subtle makeup, and a high quality doll. I enjoy having her in my collection. The price is standard for the Silver Line collectibles. ... Read more

Vintage Kellys?
Nah, more like Kelly is playing dress-up in replicas of big sister Barbie's vintage outfits.

This set is executed quite nicely.The face paint is simple and sweet, not too grown-up or dramatic.The hair is nicely done, although Mattel could have spent a little bit more time on the bubblecut.The outfits are very well made, as close to looking like the vintage dresses as I would expect in such small scale.

I am happy with this set (bought it for my daughter's collection) but I do wish they had varied the Kelly dolls a bit more.Throwing in a platinum and/or a titian hair colour would have been nice. ... Read more

Editorial Review

The Barbie Toy Box is a basic and solid piece of wooden furniture that lets you clean up a room in a jiffy by throwing everything inside, and also has a cushioned top that turns it into a comfortable bench when closed. There is a locking hinge that lets you keep the top propped open to prevent pinched fingers. Then there are the cute, Barbie touches: thebox sits on four round, pink feet, has flower-shaped holes on the side, and the cushioned top is covered with a pink, patterned fabric. All hardware necessary for assembly is included, and the process goes quickly (though of course never quite as smoothly as you expect). All you need is a Phillips-head screwdriver, a little patience, and about 45 minutes. --David Stoesz ... Read more

Very Cute; Well Constructed
I bought this Barbie toy box despite the negative review saying it was hard to put together.If you've put together furniture before (and if you're a parent, you've probably put together lots--crib, bookshelves, todler bed, and countless little plastic things), then this will not be difficult.If you follow the instructions carefully, it is not complicated.It took me about half an hour total.Like the reviewer below I did have one bolt break while putting the box together, but there is an e-mail address on the instructions sheet for replacement parts, and my replacement bold was shipped to me the day I sent my request and it was sent next day UPS.Now, the toy box is finished and it is sturdy, durable looking and very cute, with lots of storage room.It is a superb addition to my daughters' room.

Don't Buy This!
This is a very pretty toy box.However, the bolts broke when it was assembled.It never made it into my daughters bedroom! We were very disappointed at the poor quality and materials.

Cannot recommend
I purchased this toy box for my daughter for her birthday.The box took about two hours to put up because it kept falling apart.Eventually, we had to use super glue and for the time being I am keeping my fingers crossed that it will stay together.The box would be better with wheels also.

First time I have purchased an item from Amazon that I truly cannot recommend for anyone to buy. ... Read more

A wonderful gift
I mentioned that I liked dolls to a new friend and when he saw her he had to buy her. She is the quintesential barbie. I would have preferred her in the black version but thats just me. Her beading and glitzy glamour is exquisite. I am so proud to own her!

Incompetent head of Mattel wants a big head barbie like his!
I truly began to question why is it that a toy that has weathered so many years and economic changes, and still is known around the world, would suddenly have features and quality that only an incompetent fool would approve of.Collectors have made Barbie a household word, and through them their children have carried the torch for Barbie.Seems only too fitting that people know why this is occurring. [...]

Another Holiday Disappointment
I was so hoping that this Holiday Barbie would be better than the 2003 doll, but alas, it was not to be! I did not purchase the 2003 doll because her narrow, elongated eyes were just downright scary! This was the first time that I had not bought the Holiday doll since 1988.

When I saw the 2004 doll in the store, I knew that I would not be purchasing her either! Her head is too big and her face looks like a hooker's. I did give her one star for the gown. I would buy the gown if I could get it without the doll, which ruins the overall effect. She looks like one of those $5 Barbie lookalikes that are sold in convenience stores.

I know that these big headed dolls are popular with the kids, but I hope that Mattel will consider the likes of collectors as well. After the outstanding Holiday Barbie of 2002, these last two years have been a big letdown!

Note: I have not seen the African American version in person. I am wondering if this doll looks better?
