Toys and Games Reviews of Wizard of Oz: Dorothy Barbie Doll
Customer Review: Disappointed a bit...
Summary: 2 Stars
Yes, the Dorothy is perfectly detailed, she is almost as great as the original Mego version... but, THE SHOES! YIKES! They are not detailed as the other reviewer stated, I'm wondering if this lucky person got another doll that Mattel is selling. The shoes that came with my doll are cheap plastic ones... no sparkles whatsoever. Would it have killed Mattel to add glitter to the shoes? Worst part to come... the shoes will not stay on the doll. If we put them on with or without the socks, they will not stay on. So basically, the best part of the Dorothy doll doesn't work. We were so disappointed, that we complained to Mattel. They couldn't help us with this particular problem, but offered us a generous gift certificate to buy something else. Of course, my daughter wants the Glenda doll.... wish us luck with her shoes!Customer Review: super-cute "Wizard of Oz" Dorothy doll
Summary: 4 Stars
First of all, the 2007 'Pink Label' "Wizard of Oz" collector dolls are starting to become quite scarce in certain areas; the Dorothy model is one of the nicest "Oz" themed dolls I've seen in a long time.
Using the regular 'open-mouth' Barbie head mold, Dorothy wears her long curly brunette hair in two braids secured by blue ribbons. Her blue gingham frock has a shimmery effect which evokes the bold Technicolor look from the movie. She wears blue socks with shiny red "Ruby Slipper" pumps. On her left arm, Dorothy carries a basket containing canine sidekick Toto.
The doll is nicely presented in it's windowbox, but if you prefer to have her displayed "de-boxed", the package also includes a dollstand. Truly a lovely piece for the OZ fan in your family.

I'd say you expect to much for $18.99. After all 1939 when you may have bought a detailed version for less went by several years ago. For the price Mattel has done an excellent job. The likeness and quality of this item for the price is commendable. If you want better you will find you probably have to spend anywhere from $60 to $100 plus. Do your homework before complaining. I understand when people complain if they spend over $50 and get junk. I don't when they spend less than $20 and still get good quality. Kids that enjoy the The Wizard of Oz ~ Judy Garland 1939 Classic (Import - English - All Regions) should love this.

I am very sorry that the user below was displeased that the shoes did not stay on. I bought this for my sister, and she just stores them in their box and displays them. Since it stays in its box, we did not notice that the shoes fell off or anything like that. She did comment on how gorgeous it was, though, and she was just happy that the doll had ruby slippers. She's easy to please and a Wizard of Oz fanatic, so she would have been happy with anything. Though if you're looking for extreme detail, this doll might not be for you. For the type who wants a fond memory of the movie and a doll to just display, then this will be fine.Customer Review: i want it!

this doll is so detailed from the replepca dress to toto and the beautful ruby slippers this is the new verson of the old 1999 dorothy doll (in the list)the 1999 dorothy is better if you wish to play with her, but this is a collecters one but the only thing bad about this one is the 1999 one has better loking ruby slippers then this one and the 1999 one has lite up slippers! so if you want one(like me) to play with then get the 1999 one or the new or both it don't matter as long as i get my hands on one!i'm a boy it sounds werid that i want one but i LOVE the wizard of oz! i say if you want it, get it 5 STARS!
