Title: Another Holiday Disappointment
Review: I was so hoping that this Holiday Barbie would be better than the 2003 doll, but alas, it was not to be! I did not purchase the 2003 doll because her narrow, elongated eyes were just downright scary! This was the first time that I had not bought the Holiday doll since 1988.When I saw the 2004 doll in the store, I knew that I would not be purchasing her either! Her head is too big and her face looks like a hooker's. I did give her one star for the gown. I would buy the gown if I could get it without the doll, which ruins the overall effect. She looks like one of those $5 Barbie lookalikes that are sold in convenience stores.I know that these big headed dolls are popular with the kids, but I hope that Mattel will consider the likes of collectors as well. After the outstanding Holiday Barbie of 2002, these last two years have been a big letdown!Note: I have not seen the African American version in person. I am wondering if this doll looks better?
