New Collector Barbie: Francie Fucsia ‘N Fur, Brazilian Banana Bonanza
July 10, 2012
It’s late and I’m sleeping in my shoes so I’ll just post the images with the new Francie Fucsia ‘N Fur and Brazilian Banana Bonanza by Bob Mackie and tomorow I’ll update this post with my oppinion.
Wow! Not a fan at all of the Mackie doll! She looks absolutely tacky and just too over done, but I love the Francie doll, although I wish they would have kept Francie’s signature hair style. Despite the hair, it is still a gorgeous doll!
Ok so here are my thoughts:
Francie: – not really a fan. She’s cute but, for me, she’s missing the wow factor. She’s just cute.
Banana Bonanza: – I don’t like it AT ALL! I might change my mind when I see some IRL pictures of her but so far not a fan at all. Way, way too tacky. I think the face sculpt is Lara.
Hi Diane! They were just sneak peacked for the members of the BC forum. They will be uploaded on the BC site and shop when they’ll be available for sale.

Francie is cute, I love that she is AA and also her short hair, she looks special.:)
Mackie is over the top but it is Mackie doll, so she should be over the top. I love her retro and happy vibe.:)
Are these dolls only available for the British/Eurpoean market? I can’t seem to find them in the USA Catalog/website?

I actually like the Francie doll. She’s got a retro appeal.
The Banana Bonanza Barbie is stunning! I have her and I totally love her!
