The sword broke within 30 seconds of my daughter playing with it, and the tiara is hard to move down into the mask position (for my four year old). I found that if you squeeze the head and then push it down, it will work much better. The necklace didnt stay on at all and was lost within a few hours of play. The clothes and the tiara can be removed, but her legs are pink, not tan. And after two days of play, the dress is ripping around the shoulder!!! On the brighter side, the clothes are very pretty and it is easy for my daughter to switch the skirt and the cape around. I also love the pink boots, which come up almost to the dolls knees. Overall, my daughter loves this doll and there is tons of room for her imagination to grow. She is already getting into the story line. She doesnt care or even notice the doll is made with cheap plastic and was fine with a tapped sword, and really, her opinion is the one that matters!!!

The sword was in poor design. My biggest concern is that kids no matter what age put toys in their mouth when distracted. This sword is so poorly designed that there could be a chance that is breaks off in their mouth. <br /> <br />I do understand that it is designed age appropriate, but the sword was broke within minutes. It has very thin intersections between the bead like blade of the sword which causes it to break off. Very poor design in the sword, however the toy concept itself is a huge fun factor. <br /> <br />My daughter did not have any other of the above problems with the toy, and wish that they would off some sort of replacement sword. The sword is not repairable once broken. <br /> <br />The other thing about the faulty sword is it is the center piece of the character and this was quite disappointing for my daughter. She now pretends the doll has its own sword. <br /> <br />The doll itself is the typical barbie stock of adventure themed barbie. Rough clothes and plastic knick knacks. Less high end Barbie, more action figure stock. But this is fairly typical for this type of Barbie.

Sass Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:19:20 +0000 http://latesttoysandgames.com/?p=920#comment-509 My daughter recieved this Barbie for Christmas. She loves it, it is her favoite Barbie. I like how the boots of the doll are designed, they are easy for a small child to remove and put back on, because they have a high slit in the back. The sword that came with the doll broke within in a few hours, but my daughter does not seem to mind. She just likes making the cape into a fancy ballgown and then back to a cape. We own a lot of Barbies, and this one does seem to be the most fun because of the transforming fashion pieces. I would recommend it. Rating: 4 / 5 My daughter recieved this Barbie for Christmas.

Grand daughter does enjoy the doll. Rating: 5 / 5 Difficult to get out of the box, plastic ties were into the back of the head and when you cut them they still stick out of the head and are sharp.
