Editorial Review

Barbie becomes Dorothy from the beloved movie The Wizard of Oz with a perfectly reproduced costume, right down to those famous ruby slippers. These high-heeled ruby slippers actually light up with a magical red glow whenever Barbie talks. Just move her arm or press her back to activate the included button cell batteries, and hear Barbie say, "Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore," along with "There's no place like home." She comes with her own blue hairbrush, a tiny basket lined with a checked cloth, and a plastic version of Toto that fits nicely in her arms. Also available (separately) are the Lion, the Scarecrow, Ken as the Tin Man, and Barbie as Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. --Marcie Bovetz

4.0 out of 5 stars If you love the Wizard of Oz, November 20, 2000

By A Customer

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars 

then you'll love this doll! My two girls ages 3 and 6 1/2 have watched The Wizard of Oz movie and were and still are enchanted by it. They thoroughly love this doll, so much so that Ihad to get two of them! Now they play Wizard of Oz together. I plan on getting the Glinda doll, but don't know when. The only prob. with it was with the hair ribbons, which my three year old lost one and I had to go to the fabric store and find a close match to replace it. The fact that the hair is stiff doesn't seem to worry my girls at all. I guess it's better than the frizz that you can get from other dolls.

5.0 out of 5 stars There's no place like home, July 17, 2000

In addition to Dorothy's ruby slippers lighting up, when you apply pressure, Dorothy says the following lines from the movie: "Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore" and "There's no place like home". When folks check out my doll collection, they always get a kick out of it!

Hi I hope my reveiw will be helpfull to you okay.... 1. the doll,Dorothy is made out of a srong plastic and has a normal barbie expression brown eyes and hair. Her hair is in the same style as Judy Garlands from the movie it is tied at the bottom with rubber bands wich are covered with blue bows.Her arms are bent at the elbow and is jointed at the shoulder her legs do not bend at the Knee and i'll explain why later.

2.the clothes,She is wearing the same blue and white dress as in the movie i compared the two and found no differances in them. she is wearing see-truogh socks and her famous Ruby Slippers wich are made out of rubber and are molded with glitter in them they also are identical to their movie counterparts.

3.the accsesories,Dorothy comes with her trusty dog Toto. Toto is in a realistic pose and is made out rubber. Dorothy also has her basket with her it looks real and is also like Toto made out of rubber and has a blue and white checkered cloth to put in the basket.

4.the special fetures,Dorothy has a button on her back wich when pressed makes her say "Toto I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore" and "Theres no place like home" both in a voice that sounds just like Dorothys and the same time she's speaking the Ruby Slippers light up acctually its Dorothys feet that light up just in case you lose the shoes.

i hope that this review was helpfull to you.
