False Advertising...Inspiring Women Series: Katherine Johnson Barbie Review.
Left...what I thought I would receive...Right...what I was SHOCKED to receive. :(
What a disappointment. I checked ebay and the hair style is ALL OVER THE PLACE. It's NOT even close to the original. Mine looks like one of the worst examples with the WAY too long stringy mess. It looks longer on her right side.
The skin tone is not as 'rosy' as the promo doll. Its more on the yellow-ish side.
The dress is very poorly constructed. Look at the shoulder areas on both. The dress on the mass produced version looks like it was sewn for a much smaller doll.
The glasses have the worst screening of the design. Look at the right side ... can barely see the design. Because I pre-ordered on Amazon (BIG mistake)...I had no idea on the body style...which has the $7.94 Fashionista body only with the OLD articulated fashionista arms. Would it hurt Mattel THAT much to give her articulated legs as well?
Overall...this doll is a mess. She needs a total overhaul from new hair style/set. New body. Repainting the glasses and the fashion is really poorly made.
ZERO quality control.
I was so excited about this doll and this series. I hope the others (Patty Jenkins, the Chef, and the Olympian snow boarder) come out a bit better than this junk.
😔😳😞
3.5 out of 10.
