Barbie Fairytopia Mermaidia Elina Doll

I got this toy for less at a toy store in my country! ha! Amazon your making toys too pricey!

Now I know why they these barbie's turn into collectors items!! If I would have known this when my daughter was born I would have bought this Barbie back then and stored it for her future enjoyment!! It sure would have cost me less, but that's ok I still think it was worth the price I paid to see her face light up when she saw the "Barbie that wasn't being made anymore" in her hands!!

It really is a good doll, I own it and the Nori doll. However, the tail doesn't cover up her behind in the back. Also, after the wings have been in the tail for several days, weeks, or months, they tend to get really crumbled when you pull them back out.
As I said before, I do like it but there are somethings about the tail that could be improved.

My 6 year old grandchild adored this Barbie Doll! It was her favorite Christmas gift. The doll is quite beautiful and it is very easy for the child to switch the doll from fairy to mermaid.

Zoe has had this doll for a year now, and still has all the parts. The fact that there are no tiny parts(shoes, purses) to lose is the best feature. She loved how pretty the doll is. She went as elina for halloween. I am giving it four stars, because it is somewhat hard for her to turn the doll into a mermaid. other than that, its the best.
