I have a 12 year old daughter who enjoys collecting dolls with me. Each doll we collect has a special meaning for her. This doll is very pretty and will help her remember the year she turned twelve and the significance the American families place on the past and on the future in celebrating the millenium. The doll supposedly is in limited production so its a good idea to purchase it early before it is gone from the stores. The cost remains reasonable for a collectible.

I also will purchase the matching Hallmark ornament. I have been collecting these ornaments since they were released. Sometimes the ornaments are more stunning than the dolls they are based on. This may be the case this year.

Mattel should have issued a more spectacular doll for the year 2000, like those of the Holiday Barbie series. I think the designers missed a great marketing opportunity. While the doll is pretty,-the quality is mediocre in comparison to previous releases.

What a beauty she is. If you own Millenium Princess Barbie this doll is a must have. They just belong together. She is gorgeous. Her dress is a vibrant color of gold. All of the collectible 2000 dolls are worth purchasing. This is an investment that is well worth it. Thank you Amazon... you had the best price on this true gem!

I have Bought the Holiday Barbie Doll for my sister for the past ten years, and she looks forward to them each year. It seems that they get harder to find each year, So to avoid disappointed kids get them early. The value of the Doll does compare to the joy and memories they'll have.

This may not become one of the highest priced collectables of all time but it will bring back a memory of the turning of the calander from the 20th to the 21st century. For that reson alone I purchased it. I think you should get two one for your young daughter to play with (the clothes will no doubt get mixed up and the hair will no doubt get quite messy) and one to keep in the box for her collection. By the way there IS an African American version of this doll and the earlier complaint is obviously from someone who has some other issues to deal with. I counted a huge percentage of minority represented dolls from the Barbie line of dolls. I do wish that Mattel would make a few Barbies that had a normal body image instead of the waif look they all have. My sometimes comment to my daughter about how beatiful her Barbie looks is that she would look a little better if she wasn't so skinny.

Hi i was really excited with my purchase of the celebration barbie! It came in a nice box with padding careful not to dent the box too. My niece collects Barbies and I am thrilled to keep this in my closet till Christmas! Who can beat the price it was at one time a 39.00 dollar doll to hear my sister tell it.I got it for 6.00 at their amazon toy outlet sale and free shipping!YEAthe doll is delicate and any girl or grown girl would love to play with it although we most likely will put it in a doll case....sondra in Louisian

When I saw this Barbie offered at an outlet price and free shipping, I thought that it was a good buy. When this doll arrived, I knew that it was an UNBELIEVABLE buy! She is just gorgeous, with a gown that is probably worth far more than this doll costs. In a wonderful presentation box, this Barbie would make an impressive gift for a special little (or big) girl. I'M a big girl and I love this Barbie. She is the star of my collection.

My daughter enjoys collecting Barbies of all types. They are all still in their original boxes with the price tags on them. She really looks forward to the special editions, like the Celebration 2000. However her disappointment this year-was not being able to find a African American Celebration 2000 Barbie, to complete her set. She loves making sets of the special ones. I think the Celebration 2000 Barbie is pretty-but I have to say, I was amazed to find ones that showed a very slight difference-from the same company. You have to look very close to see these differences-we found some that had just a hint of different eye color or a tiny difference in the box color. But all-in-all we agree that the dolls are pretty. I hope that the quality of these dolls stays the same and the company knows how much these dolls are cherished.

Someone got me this doll when I was about six, and unfortunately at that time I didn't know about (or care about) collector's dolls. To me, a doll was a doll and you played with it like all dolls. As a result, the dress has been worn out and the doll is missing an arm. (actually that came from one of the little girls I know playing with it.) It's so gorgeous and I'd love to get another one. I still have the little ornament, and it's my favorite out of all the ones on our tree.

I started collecting these for myself, but after I had my daughter, I thought I'd share them with her. She loves them! I bought her the brunette (Teresa) Millennium version, which is just as pretty if not prettier than the blonde version. But I do love them both and I'm glad to have them both in my curio. What a wonderful Barbie to mark a time we will never see again in our life time!

I purchased several of these dolls! BEAUTIFUL! My wife loves the doll and we gave them as gifts! Our friend had a baby girl in 2000 and we gave her one! This doll made my niece very happy! Great way to start a barbie collection or great addition to your collection! Makes a great gift and a nice collectible! Five stars all the way on this doll! Dan
