As much as I love the Barbie line, the fairies always seem to suffer from design flaws. What you don't see in the pictures on amazon or on the box is that this fairy has all kinds of plastic pieces coming out her back. These pieces are so that the 'gimmick' of having the wings turn into a skirt in one motion of the arms would work. It makes the back of the doll kind of ugly and the skirt stick out weird in order to do the 'gimmick' movement.
I wish (and thought) this was more like the 3 musketeers barbies where the skirt does double duty (cape/skirt) but isn't attached to plastic pieces in the back. And like the Mariposa doll and other fairies, kids just don't like those plastic pieces in back. When you don't have wings permanently attached, they just fall off. All the time.
As others noted, getting this doll out of the package is a true pain. Getting the wings on the doll for the gimmick is even more annoying. Within 5 minutes, the wing gimmick trick no longer worked right and the crown fell off. I really wish they'd sew the crowns to the head.
So yeah, yet another failure. Instead of this doll, buy the new Mermaid dolls. Those have tails of soft vinyl that make the mermaid posable and much more fun to play. What girl wants to play with a toy that keeps breaking or has strange plastic pieces sticking out the back like a victim of strange experimentation?Get more detail about Barbie Fairy-Tastic Pink/Purple Princess Doll.
