I feel mine looks like Princess Catherine and I am purchasing three more because I am more impressed with these dolls than the barbie basic doll I also recently received. I may be returning to the company in trade for my third stardollMoxie Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621838988788414732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-48286412451118314342011-12-07T22:32:22.144-05:002011-12-07T22:32:22.144-05:00The AA Barbie Basic screening is beautiful.

I ...Terri, don't you have any pull with Mattel? I think the Stardolls are beautiful, for some reason I was not drawn to them at all. I even went to the store, held them in my hands to see if we would bond. We didn't. I love the accessory packs and I will buy them all. By the way, the shoes fit the Monster High dolls perfectly. The frozen body has nothing to do with little girls. They want articulation like we do. At least let the dolls sit down! Maybe they posted the "dolls can't dance" since there was a recent line of dancing LIV dolls that had a lever that made them dance. If that was the case, it was probably a smart disclaimer. How do you only put two on pivotal bodies. What is going on other there?!!! If they were really smart, they would have an adult collector focus group and a young girl's focus group on just about every project they are considering. Maybe they already have this, but they aren't listening to them.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-217917876331578492.post-2923485835413970082011-12-07T02:10:03.861-05:002011-12-07T02:10:03.861-05:00I ended up buying one Stardoll at the barbiecollec...I ended up buying one Stardoll at the barbiecollector shop.

I think that Mattel's main target audience remains little girls.

I can't even find them in my local stores so I guess I'll have to make a trip to Toys R Us to find them.

The Basics ...Doll cannot dance? Oh no!<br />(So funny.)<br /><br />The Basics are not very exciting but I actually love #8 (lower left corner of your array) for her hairdo and face.

I'm shelling out more money because I like my girls to have articulation. So, I've purchased two Fashionistas and one Liv, just for their body. <br /><br />The other thing that's irritating is, the Stardoll who received the Liv body, is the only one who can wear the cute shoes that comes with the doll/accessory pack. The feet are much too big for Barbie's feet! <br /><br />The so called "model muse" body the Stardolls come with, has no movement from the waste down. They can't even sit! I don't know who's on what in Mattel's marketing department but it must be good stuff. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
