My daughter loves all the Barbie movies, so of course she had to have this doll as soon as she saw it. Normally I have no complaints about Barbie toys. This one, however, is driving me insane!! The stupid tailfeather thing is not attached to the doll. It snaps into a hole in her back. And falls out. Over and over. Every time she tries to flip them up so they open, they fall out. I have put the thing back in for my daughter at least a dozen times this morning alone. I am ready to chuck it out the window!!
Aside from the tailfeathers, this is a nice doll. The songs are cute and we are looking forward to the movie. I just wish the feathers were permanently attached to the doll, or stayed in better when moved.

Okay...the red panda is supposed to sing? Well it doesn't. I bought this doll for my 6 year old daughter and she loves it! She hasn't put it down all day. Everything is beautiful but the red panda doesn't sing. I am not sure why. Either way, the doll is a hit with my daughter (although the peacock feathers and the shoes fall off a lot). I think it bothers me more than my daughter.

I bought this doll for my daughter a few days after it's inital release, and she ADORES this doll. I haven't had any problems with the wings/feathers coming out of the dolls back, as the other reviewer did. My only problem with this doll as that it sings a bit of one or two of the songs from the movie. The movie hasn't been released yet, and I'm already sick of the music. I expected this, as a couple of the other "movie" barbies also sing, and while I'm annoyed, it is one of my daughter's favorite features about the toy. The clothes are beautiful, and the doll has been a good addition to my daughter's collection.

My daughter was given the Princess Luciana doll as a birthday present with the DVD and loved it so much that I bought this one as well. She goes to sleep with her sharing her pillow and listening to her sing in the dark. Yeah, the feathers come off fairly easily, but they snap right back in. Sometimes my daughter needs a little help with that, but it doesn't seem to frustrate her at all. I didn't see anything about the red panda singing on the box, so I'm not sure what the other reviewer is referring to. Her dress is beautiful and she is now a beloved member of the Barbie tribe.

My 3 yr old daughter loves this doll as well as the others from this collection. My issue with so many of the Barbie clothes is that they are too revealing and too grown-up looking for little girls to see and play with everyday. This doll's clothes are so pretty and girly. Suitable for all ages!

This was for my 4 yr. old granddaughter's birthday. She really had to have this one. I didn't know it was made in 2007 and you couldn't buy it in the store. So was very happy to find it on Amazon. She loved it.

The product was shipped quickly and was in mint condition/new. I was not sure if the doll sang all of both songs because without taking her out of the box (as she was a present for my niece) she only sang a snippet of one song. I emailed the company and they quickly responded. The doll worked fine. Once she is removed from the box and all the ties, etc. taken off, then the doll sings both songs. My niece loved it. Unfortunately my sister-in-law accidentally broke the doll's leg off the same day my niece got it and it doesn't go back on. Oh well, I think it was well made. My niece loves to sing the songs with the doll and loves the dvd about Ro.

This doll was a big hit with my goddaughter. She loves the fact that it sings when you press the button on the necklace and like most little girls who love this toy will continuously press the button, which delights her but may annoy some adults. The doll was sold in 2007 so when I received the shipment the battery was dead. I was concerned because the return policy stated that I could return the item if the box had not been opened but I had to open the box to replace the battery. I called Amazon and they noted that it would be okay to open the box to replace the battery and if it turned out the doll did not function after replacing the battery, I could still proceed to return. Fortunately, as I suspected, the problem was resolved by replacing the battery.

My daughter loves this doll and sings along with her all the time. The songs are just long enough where they don't drive you crazy after the button is pushed a hundred times.

If your daughter is into Barbie, this one is a must! She is beautiful and she sings. My daughter sings the song before bed each night.
