Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My 8 year old daughter loves Barbies, so we have quite a few. How many? I can't count them all! She loves the Barbie movies too and was very excited to get to review the Barbie in Pink Shoes doll.

PROS:

-It works like it's supposed to. The Barbie actually does what it says it does hold onto her hand with one hand, hold onto her legs with the other, and spin! You'll hear a clicking noise (perfectly normal) and once you spin her around two full times the skirt is changed! Spin it in reverse to put her dress back.

-You can remove her top. Unlike some other special Barbies, you can actually remove the top of this Barbie. This means that you can use other tops that you have to dress up your Barbie even more! You can not remove the skirt, but being able to remove the top is definitely good!

-Nice hair. My daughter loves her hair. IT's long, soft, and definitely nice!

-Rubbery legs. Rather than having the regular legs, this Barbie has rubbery legs. This is perfect as you have to hold her legs to change her dress so the legs are likely to undergo a lot of stress.

CONS:

-No accessories. Unlike some special Barbies, this one comes with no added accessories other than the tiara and necklace she is all ready wearing.

-You can not remove her shoes. My daughter loves the shoes but wishes you could remove them. Sadly, you can't.

-Not bendy. While you can move her arms up and down, and can rotate her head, that is about the extend of bendiness you'll find in this Barbie.

VERDICT: If you have a Barbie lover in your house, Barbie in the Pink Shoes Transforming Ballerina doll will be a perfect addition to her collection. This Barbie does what it says it will do and does it beautifully.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program As far as my kids are concerned, you can't go wrong with a Barbie. This Kristyn doll was a hit even before they saw the movie. Now that they've seen the movie, they enjoy recreating the dance scenes from it.

This Barbie does what it's supposed to do. When you twist the top and bottom of the doll in opposite directions, the skirt flips over and goes from pink to blue and back again. Because she's a ballerina, the toes are permanently on pointe and the ballet slippers painted on. Her legs are pink and bendy and the whole thing is realistic looking as if she were a ballerina wearing tights and dancing. She comes with a removable tiara and necklace. She's a great choice for any Barbie fan.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Whenever I write a review on a product like this, I always have to consider whose perspective to write it from.

My kids really loved this doll and they played with it for hours. Obviously they would give it five stars.

I inspected the doll and found that the way the skirt twirls leaves one end sticking up a bit and I think its not a very good design.

In the end I decided to give it 5 stars based not upon my "adult" reactions and ideals. Its not made for me, its made for my kids. And my kids really like it and think its just pure awesomeness. And it didn't break or fall apart on them. They can make up these stories for hours with their barbies. In fact, their barbies all have these personalities and behave consistently from story to story. Although the poor GI Joe I got a while back that is the same scale got conscripted to be a permanent adversary to Ken. Sorry Joe.

So I'm going to give it 5 stars based on their enjoyment. For a non-educational toy like this one, thats the main purpose and it accomplished it.

Honest reviews on Barbie in the Pink Shoes Transforming Ballerina Kristyn Doll

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My granddaughter is almost three years old, and already has received two Barbie dolls as gifts. Like most girls, she is fascinated with the hair, the clothes, and the shoes, and enjoys dressing and undressing the dolls for "special occasions," such as teas with her other toys, specifically stuffed animals.

Since she loves the color pink, this Barbie was particularly appealing.

This new Barbie was happily added to her small, but growing collection. She was intrigued by the two distinct looks the doll has. By twirling the dress to change the doll's looks, it's almost like getting two Barbies for the price of one. This feature is really a winner, since my granddaughter kept changing the dress back and forth and stayed involved for nearly an hour before going on to other toys. As the Barbie is fairly new, I can't comment on its durability, though her other two Barbies are still in like-new condition.

Barbie made her debut in 1959 and has been going strong ever since. It's pleasant to see that little girls still enjoy her charms.
