Just got my debut barbie last week and I can't help staring at it from time to time. It is simply gorgeous and it captures the essence of the original 1959 barbie. Simple make up makes it more appealing and classy. The zebra bathing suit is well crafted but I would recommend that you dont touch it coz there are some small beads/particles that comes off.
I have a big issue with the shoes. Just like the 1959 barbie repro (5oth anniversary series), the heel of the right shoe was bent due to the pastic thread that ties it in the foot. The manufacturer should have took extra care when they tied the nylon tread and when placing the doll in the carton box. But overall, this is a must have for all barbie collectors.

I bought this doll to add for my collection. It's a beautiful flawless doll and I love it so much, I had to get another one. I own a lot of repro Barbie dolls but this one is the best one. It's something that you can pass on for generations. The classic face, hair, the color and the silkstone material is just so perfect I love it. I will really recommend this doll to anybody, you will not regret owning it.

This Barbie was extra special. I gave it to my niece for Christmas, and she adored it! I collect Barbie dolls on a modest scale, and found this to be of higher quality than some, and exquisitely detailed. Also a lot of fun for those who remember the fifties and those who don't!
