a better price than at the TRU store, so I purchased it.
So, let's really take a look at it! Here is what is comes with:
Shoes-grey/silver
A violin...with the name Barbie on it! (boo, boo, boo)
And the dress itself! Ms. D agreed to be our model again.
The dress is nothing special in my mind but some
people might like it.
Ms. D. will play you all a little tune.
Ms. D: I really can't play. I'm just modeling this thing.
This dress is just a little better than that astronaut outfit! It is nothing you
would ever really catch me wearing anywhere. I tell you that Mattel!
Even knock off companies are doing better clothing. I might have to write them.
I really purchase this for the violin. I can't believe that they put Barbie on it
that large! I have two barbie size violins but I need at least one more.
Let me show you my other violins in my collection.
I have the one I got when I puchased this set years ago and I also have
one from when I puchased a MGA Entertainment Moxie Girlz "Be True!
Be You" Rock Star 2 School Star. I think I got it last fall.
So let's compare the violins!
Moxie, older Barbie and new I can be...,
All are about the same size but the real difference is in the quality.
You can't really tell from the picture but the Moxie violin has
painted on strings on the violin. The bow is casted as one piece with
the strings painted beige. The newer I can be... violin is the same as the
Moxie, it has painted on strings. The older Mattel has real strings on the
violin and the bow!
Bow
The Back
Only the older Mattel violin has a back to the violin.
