I've wanted this one for a while, and now Kwanzaa Barbie has finally come to join me.
She came with her box, but the box has been opened.
For now I will display her in her box.
I'd never wanted a Justin Bieber doll. I've walked right by them time and time again in stores (but I did buy one of the clothing sets for my other teen boys). But then someone on Facebook posted about how the prices of these dolls had been falling rapidly amid the recent troubles that the singer has been having. Someone else made the point that it would be worth the cheap prices just to get the clothes, and that caught my attention. I remembered seeing a JB playset that I liked on Vanessa's blog, and decided to finally search for one and I picked this one up since the price was right.
I need some doctors and nurses around here. My dolly infirmary is overflowing, and my dolls are not getting any help from me. I have a GI Jane nurse, but she came here without any of her gear. She would probably try to punch me in the face if I put her in this, but SOMEBODY'S got to step up and help my injured dollies.
Here are a couple of additional photos of my Phicen (that they are not calling Jinx). Also, here is a video of my Jinx vs. Jinx vs. Phicen comparison that includes some new photos and some video footage.
Hello from Spain: great puchases. I like the first Barbie. Keep in touch
ReplyDeleteThank you, Marta! I'm so glad to finally have the Kwanzaa Barbie. I've been wanting her for a long time.
DeleteI am so glad you found Kwanzaa Barbie. She is such a lovely doll with lots of hair. The other additions are nice as well.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the video compilation of Jinx photos especially Ken's cameo! Oh my... Ken's touchy feely behavior was hilarious!

Thank you, Debbie! Ken was more than happy to comply with helping to show how soft the Phicen skin is. :)
DeleteLove the video! Congrats on your Kwanzaa Barbie she is a beauty!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Brini!
DeleteCongratulations on getting Kwanzaa. She is a lovely doll! I love her.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Georgia Girl! I have a lot of dolls with this face mold, but Kwanzaa Barbie still really stands out to me. I think that she is just lovely.
DeleteThe Kwanza doll is great! Tell Ken thanks for that little demo! LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks The grandmommy! Ken said that the pleasure was all his. LOL!
DeleteCongrats on getting the Kwanza Barbie and the Bieber drum set!
ReplyDeleteHave to come back for the video; having connection problems ;-P
Thank you, D7ana!
DeleteLOLOL! Ken was enjoying that demonstration wasn't he? That was quite the pliable booty she has. I've seen some of those "She's Soft" Barbies that are soft and cuddley so the kids can snuggle with them. I wonder if it's the same material.
ReplyDeleteLOL Muff! I can honestly say that Ken has been all smiles since his time in the video. :) I don't think I've seen the "She's Soft" Barbies. I remember a Barbie years ago that was marketed as a Barbie that girls could cuddle with at bedtime, but that Barbie had a cloth stuffed body. As for the Phicen, I noticed that she was quite a bit softer than previous Phicens as soon as I took her out of the box. This one really is a huge improvement over the others (in other ways - I really don't care about the soft "skin", I'm just amused by it).
ReplyDeleteGreat finds. My male doll needs some clothes, I am going to check the Bieber discounts. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThanks Male Doll World! Good luck with finding discounted Bieber gear for your guys!
DeleteCongrats on adding to your stash. I love my Kwanzaa doll. Glad you invested in a Bieber set. He has some great accessories and the prices have been on point lately. Thanks for the link. P.S. Ken was having way too much fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vanessa! The Bieber set should be fun. I'll have to paint the drum set eventually. Yep, Ken was having a good time! That one normally hangs out on my desk at work, so he was glad to be back here with the others and seeing some action.
DeleteYou know what? Following you doll blogs is going to put me in the poor house. I had no Idea about a Kwanza Barbie! There goes my Paypal balance. smh
ReplyDeleteLOL Valsays! I know the feeling, because I have been enabled by my fellow bloggers on many occasions and purchased dolls that I never knew existed until they let me know. Enjoy your Kwanzaa Barbie! She really is a great doll.
DeleteWell didn't get the Barbie but I got the Kwanzaa Kelly doll she is super cute and has a little afro. Thanks for sharing!
DeleteYou're welcome Valsays! Kwanzaa Kelly is cute and I need to add her to my collection also one of these days!
