Barbie Made to Move Posable Doll with Red Hair Wearing Pastel Blue Color-Blocked Top & Yoga Leggings, Flexible with 22 Posable "Joints"

I bought this Barbie doll for my daughter, and she absolutely loves it! The doll is beautifully made, with detailed clothing, vibrant colors, and high-quality materials. My daughter really likes the quality. She has like 100+ dolls and is very precise with her choice. She has wanted this doll and plays with it. It has moving, hands, arms and feet which is TOP criteria for her.The packaging was secure, and everything arrived in perfect condition. It also makes a great collector’s item for adults who grew up with Barbie. Definitely recommend for kids and collectors alike!

This doll has shiny, layered long hair the color of a new penny. The way that it's parted makes it look thick and natural. Her freckles are fainter than in the stock photos, but clearly visible. She has brown eyes with very well painted highlights, eyelashes, and reddish-brown eyebrows. Her lips are pink. Her head tilts up and down and tilts to both sides.Her body is much more naturally proportioned than the average Barbie. Her bust size is average. She has a defined waist but not tiny. She has curvy hips and thighs. The only body parts really out of proportion are the feet. I'm sure they had to keep them small to fit into Barbie shoes already on the market. I read that because her ankles are articulated, she can wear heels or flats.The dolls have some weight to them. The elbow and knee joints are large and obvious but don't detract from the dolls' appearance. I bought two dolls. Both have one elbow that doesn't bend as far back as the other. DON'T TRY TO FORCE IT. It's apparently supposed to be that way for some reason. The dolls are jointed under the bust but not at the waist. This still allows for natural-looking posing. The hips extend out. The legs rotate to the side with the same type of joint as under the bust. Elbows, wrists, knees, and ankles bend. Hands rotate. Arms rotate in the same way as the legs.The tops can be pulled down over the hips and legs to avoid disarranging updos or curls. I have a sundress from a 2014 Fashionista. It fits these dolls. I would think that all Fashionista clothes would fit these dolls except for the Petite Fashionistas.I placed an order for one doll, then canceled it and placed a new order for two dolls. I knew that once I had one, I would immediately want another. I bought mine to redress and photograph. Finally, we have an expensive, fully articulated doll suitable for photographing and displaying! DOLLS DO NOT COME WITH STANDS OR ANY OTHER ACCESSORIES.I'm used to Monster High and Ever After High dolls. Made to Move Barbie is sturdier and moves very differently from MH and EAH. I had to undress one to figure out how the arm, bust, and thigh joints work. If you're buying this doll for a child, I suggest undressing it and showing the child how the points of articulation work. The only joint that seems like it could be fragile is the ankle joint.The dolls have no shoes, jewelry, buttons, snaps or other small parts that could be dangerous to a child.I hope this review answers all your questions. If it doesn't, please ask me about anything I missed.

Update:I got a blue top this time to head-swap with Barbie Paleontologist. I really loved the pretty dimples of Blue Top Barbie. I hope to get another one soon. This one could even stand in flat shoes. Her ankles were just right. Some of the other Barbie Made to Move dolls had tricky little ankles with a mind all their own.Also the peg inside their heads are slightly different, so the neck on one doll looks shorter now.I just got Barbie Made to Move today. I read many reviews about Barbie Made to Move vs. Style Barbie. I just had to try her out. Most people who have the 2 dolls say Made to Move Barbie is a much better poser. This is very true.I liked the rooted lashes and 2-toned hair on Style Barbie the best, so I can't say Style Barbie is a loser. Style also has the bending ankle and can wear both flats and heels. Made to move Barbie has choppy hair. I like it just the same, because my real hair is not all the same length. I thought it looked nice.Made to Move Barbie can bend her knees all the way back and sit down on her knees. She can bend at the breast/ rib cage, but not at the waist. Style Barbie cannot do any of this.Style Barbie can only bend her knees to sit down in a chair.Made to Move Barbie can spread her legs out like in yoga or exercise class. Style Barbie can spread her legs very little in comparison.Made to Move Barbie has much sturdier looking joints except in the ankles, they are almost the same. One thing I did notice was one of her ankles turns inward like she needs her electrolytes. I thought it was the shoes but I traded their shoes around and noticed the shoes were okay. I still like the natural looking poses for this doll. She is a much better choice for those who love doll dioramas and modelling clothes.As soon as I got her out, I noticed one small dot on her foot and face both barely noticeable. To me personally, this is not a problem, but I thought I should mention it. The price was well worth it for this doll. The clothes are nice enough and stretchy so I can go ahead and pose her. I had a couple of pairs of Barbie shoes to try on her. She came barefooted. I was thrilled to find that her jointed ankle makes it possible for her to wear high heels and flat shoes made for Barbie. I have both branded and unbranded Barbie shoes that fit her. I was almost about to sell some of the shoes when I got her, but she is a keeper and loves shoes. The usual Barbie seams are kind of rough in places but that is okay, considering what I paid for her ($11.04). I consider this to be a really great buy.

My daughters favorite barbie! She loves that all of the body parts can move. It makes it easier for her to lose her dolls and have them hold things.

Great doll
