Barbie Careers Fashion Doll & Accessories, Made to Move Tennis Player Wearing Removable Outfit with Racket & Ball, 22 Bendable Joints

I had initially bought this barbie to swap heads with another barbie but she grew on me and after dressing her up I knew she was a keeper.The one thing I have a complaint about us that I've ordered three of these bc they're inexpensive articulated bodies. The first one I opened had a bad hair chop. However the pros outway the consA great alternative to those of us who can't afford a BJD but still want a good posable doll. She's slim and fun to pose, standard 11 inch clothes fit her, personally I took her hair our of the rubber band and she is just so fun and cute. As far a durability goes, she is flexible but some joints, namely hands and feet seem a bit loose. Holding her up her feet don't stay straight on my own, they're loose and tip forward without anything under them. I fixed this by "sueding" the joints in her ankles (a thin piece of moleskine placed in the joint to help it hold a position) her hands don't bother me much. However in some reviews I noticed that people were a bit upset due to her arm seeming to face the wrong way. This is usually not a defect and her arm is just rotated. My gals arm was totally backwards but if you follow how the joints move I realized it was rotated at the shoulder so I put her arm straight out and twisted it into position and she's just fine.If the doll is resisting movement, ensure the joint is facing the right way before assuming she's broken. I have accidentally done this with all of my articulated dolls where I tried to pose bur the arm was rotated. Don't force it, usually you just have to rotate the upper arm and her hands can face backwards or upside down, just twist it in the correct position.If the joints are too loose you can suede the joint or use a little bead of hot glue but ensure it is thin, you don't want to adhere the joint but putting something in the joint like that or even a rubber band will help with loosenessA big step for Barbie to start articulating dolls. I remember my old barbies where you had to snap her legs down to get her to sit. Loving the new articulated dolls. I put an odile (lavender dreamtopia mermaid) on one of the extras I bought so you rly can make a OOAK with these bodies.

Some people buy this doll as they want an articulated doll that's an athlete. She's perfectly fine for that. Her pale skin is flattered by the soft colors of her outfit. Her outfit is coherent and looks well-put together. She's wearing a sensible ponytail, perfect for tennis! and she comes with the accessories she needs: a racket and a ball. What's not to like!But I think a lot of collectors are buying multiples of this doll to use the doll's articulated body on other dolls which are not articulated (such as the fashionistas line). She's perfect for that purpose. Her ability to pose is excellent. Her joints are sturdy and well-made. She can move.Now, I just wish she'd go on sale!

Lovely facial detail. Top quality and very realistic functional movement abilities! Big hit with the kids!

Happy with the purchase, the item is exactly as described. It arrived in good condition.

She is the epitome of an athletic girl. Tennis racket fits well in her hand and the outfit is well made. Maybe better quality than some of the other outfits offered by Matel.

This doll has a very light skin tone for her made to move body type. She is cute but very simple in terms of her outfit. I use this doll for customising other dolls that have unposeable bodies and need a very light matching skin tone.

I purchased this doll to be a body donor for the Odile lavender mermaid. She is a perfect match and is lighter than the purple top yoga. All her joints move smoothly and there were no flaws. As for her head I put it on a static body and gave her to a 4 year old who loves her.

Prettiest doll I've gotten in a while from Mattel, I highly suggest this doll for any reason I believe I have 2 and they are both very pretty and well jointed not too stiff or loose.
