I am glad Barbie has gotten back to her roots as a fashion model . Barbie is a fashion doll and for the first time in quite a while she lives up to her billing. I am tired of short flat chested dumpy, plain and short dolls with sappy pets or phony joe jobs .
This doll is all about glamor! Her platinum hair is long and silky. her pose shouts attitude. Doll has the model muse body which allows her to wear much fuller skirts without looking frumpy. Her eye make-up looks like she just left the MAC counter. The boots she is wearing are remarkable pieces of shoe-making.. these are of a quality usually only found made for Volks or other BJD dolls.. the kind of shoes that usually cost more than this complete doll does! YOU not only get a fabulous doll, but she comes with a second outfit and , for the first time in a while, a good hair brush ! Best of all, Mattel did not sew her hair to
the box back, as they did so many times in the past. with the new see through box, you can see what you are getting.. and with Top Model Barbie you are getting one glamrous doll!

This is one of the prettiest dolls that Mattel has created recently. There is a plethora of Top Model dolls available.

The problems I think Mattel is having is that they are trying desperately to regain the doll market championship -- I don't think this will happen.

Taking the boots off is okay, but putting them back on made me think that mattel put them on and then made the stockings. Impossible, for sure.

She comes with a delightful array of items for a top model to be on site in any of a dozen places for a photo shoot.

There are so many doll makers now, that for Mattel to regain it's market shares, they must compete in the quality versus quantity race. Why not put out six pink label dolls (standard), 3 gold label, 2 silver label, and 1 grand special, and 2 Silkstone -- at the limitations they have specified.

I've been a collector for years, but it is extremely annoying to have a head pop off for no real reason except trying to put a shirt on the doll.

This top model rules the runway! This beautiful Barbie doll is featured in the popular Model Muse body. Dressed in the latest fashions, she comes in window-box packaging with a second outfit, extra shoes, purse, sunglasses, a special black hairbrush and shoe box with the Barbie silo-head logos, plus a model's black portfolio that includes a mix-and-match fashion booklet! What more could you ask for? Run away with her today! Stands 11 1/2-inches tall.

Upon seeing Top Model Barbie in the store, I knew she had to be mine. She's gorgeous and the clothing is trendy and unique. Then again, I'm an adult; I don't necessarily think that fishnets and stiletto boots are a good choice for kids under 12. The only thing that truly bothered me was that her shoes are nearly impossible to put on. Once I removed her boots, I knew I'd never be able to get them back over her stockings again. And I have yet to break out the needle-nose pliers so I can wedge her feet into the ankle wrap on the sandals. Still, Barbie's hairstyle is fresh and her accessories are perfectly trendy. Depending on what you're looking to get from this doll, she can be a nice addition to a fashion-oriented collection.

I saw the commercial for this doll on youtube last November, and I just had to add her to my collection. She is displayed on my bookshelf with my other dolls that are removed from their boxes. I dressed her in her second outfit last month, and took pictures, and changed her back into her original outfit. During Christmas, she wore a red holiday dress I made, and she looked good in that too. Every now-and-then, I brush her hair, but other than that, I don't do much with her. She'd be a great addition to any Barbie collection :)

This is a very unique and beautiful doll ... not your usual Barbie but very updated with the long legs, pose, make-up and clothes. Definitely a keeper!

Actually, I recieved the product in time but somehow I do not like the quality of the Doll and it seems like a cheap plastic doll. So I returned it back and got Holiday Barbie 2008 which is awesome...

This doll is absolutely fabulous just as a top model should be. Even though this isn't"officially" a collectible doll, I will still keep her boxed along with the rest of my collectibles. Love It!

KEN WAS TIRED OF ALL THE STUCK UP BARBIES AND DECIDED TO DATE THE TOP MODEL BARBIE, ACTUALLY WIFE WANTED IT FOR HER KEN DOLL SET UP... WORKS WELL AND THE WIFE IS HAPPY.....

Hmmmm i like barbies but i feel they're more for the smaller crowd (like 3-8 years old). but for the older crowd i would recommend bratz, or myscene. i USED to like barbies but now im over them, so im giving them to my cousins if they have a kid. I would say bratz are my #1 favorite brand of dolls. then barbie then myscene (because its hard to slip on and off clothes on the myscenes). I highly reccommend.
