I never saw this one coming. I know Mattel likes to show prototype pictures of dolls and make them different when they actually go into production but the difference between the 2 dolls is HUGE! Not that I don’t like the final result. I’m actually more happy with the real images than the prototype that looked too playline for me, but I don’t understand the huge difference and why they didn’t chage the promo pic.

Anyway the new head mold looks amazing. A softer version of Louboutin. Love, love!

After days and days of expecting these pics to hit the net, here they are! The first images of the long awaited doll Barbie Mermaid 2012 by Linda Kyaw. What can I say…kinda disappointed. I don’t like the cheap plastic that her prop is made of and also not very sure about her face. Kinda looks like to playline to me. Hopefully we’ll have HQ pics soon so I can really decide if I want her or not.

What do you think of her? She’s Gold Label.
