My daughter was so excited when this doll arrived. Imagine her disappointment when she saw that one of the arms was broken. Unfortunately, like the reviewer in 2010, the damage was due to an underneath plastic moving part which made the arm useless. Apparently it's a defect they've decided not to fix since I made my purchase in May 2011. As you can see, my decision to buy rarely hinges solely on shipping issues but I must warn you. If you have this doll shipped, expect to have to return it at least once and get a new one.

Also, the doll's head has several plastic pieces in it which secure the head when it's in the box. You may find you can't pull them out once the doll is out of the box. Since they interfere with styling the mannequin's hair, you'll probably end up cutting them. If so you'll have to be very careful not to cut the doll's hair in the process. Once that's done, you'll have to press the remaining pieces into the mannequin's head or else they'll scratch your child. All this unnecessary effort and a hefty price too.

I admit it's a beautiful doll; that's why I bought it and my daughter really enjoys playing with it. But if I had to do it all over again, I'd buy it at a local store instead of having it shipped or better still, purchase a similar doll at a more affordable price from a different manufacturer.

It's a nice idea and was super excited to buy it for a christmas present. I came with both arms broken at the base. The arms are suppose to swivel a little bit so they can be polished and used with press on nails. The underneath plastic moving part was broken on both arms renering them useless.
