Description:
Sure to make waves wherever she goes, Mermaid Barbie®
doll wears a sheer bodice accented with beads and rhinestones in
iridescent blue and silver. Iridescent paillettes create the first half
of her shimmery tail ending with two different shades of pleated
organza.
Pretty picture, isn't it? I would like to see this doll in person. She comes with the rock display but the ad says she cannot stand alone as shown. I know many Barbie collectors do not remove their dolls from the boxes and this one is definitely a 'stay-in-the-box' doll. I can see this as a lovely 8X10 print for a doll room.
So what do you think? Is $100 a fair price for this mermaid beauty?
