BARBIE Mariposa Doll Mariposa is a beautiful fairy heroine just waiting to flit into your little girl’s life! From the all new Barbie Mariposa DVD, this doll encompasses the essence and beauty of our feature doll. Mariposa wears a gorgeous pink butterfly-themed skirt, bodice and tiara. Measures 12″ tall.
Customer Review: lady turtle
Such a pretty doll. Her hair is silky soft and the headband and wrap around shoes are so unique. Her wings do fall off too easily, but are easily put back on and Mariposa can be played with without them on. I am writing this review 10 months after purchase so here are the drawbacks. Depending on the age of the child playing with the doll the shoes are fragile and the straps break. If the child steps or sits on the wings when they are off, they can be broke in half;or maybe she bent them with her hands. And worst of all, somehow the neck has become limp. Her head will not stay up and it just flops around. Either the joint is a new type that doesn’t last or my granddaughter somehow broke it. Also the velcro on the little dress has lost it’s ability to stick and I had to get another dress. This doll is done.
Perhaps the butterfly dolls should be only for display. But most ‘little’ girls like to play with their dolls.
Customer Review: wings won’t stay on
My daughter got this for her 4th birthday. She really likes the Mariposa story. The doll, however, is not as popular. The wings fell off when we took her out of the box and while we can set them back on gently, with a small plastic butterfly on the back of the doll but, they fall off at the slightest wiggle. I don’t know if this is a design problem or just bad luck.
