She's really pretty and it's interesting that they put her on a curvier body. I miss the days when we could get a black label muse in a gown for $20-$30.
I guess they used the curvy body because she's a Marilyn Monroe reference. It is too bad all Mattel Creations dolls are more expensive these days, but I'd rather have her at $50 than their usual $75 😆
Just a small correction, you might have even known this and just misspoke in the video but this doll is on the "Music Muse" body type, not Model Muse. The music muse is a newer body type that they gave to the Mariah Carey doll last year, it's very similar to Model Muse except it's a little more curvy and shapely.
I actually didn't find this out until I was editing, but thank you for the heads up! I did notice she is a lot curvier as I was trying to put her on display. I guess since they were trying to do a Marilyn Monroe reference that it makes sense to use that body type.
Wow she's stunning!! I love that they're going back to what we've all loved about barbie and are giving us at least some dolls with that! Hopefully they'll keep it up and extend it to more dolls. Luckily my dogs, (at least the 3 that sleep in my room) dont mess with my doll stuff. I can leave stuff out on the floor all night and they don't care, just as long as they can get on the bed and sleep😂 so i don't have to worry about losing pieces to my dogs like you do with your cats. Speaking of which, eeeee you have a tuxedo cat!!😍 i had one all growing up and she was by my side and slept on my pillow every night for 15 years. So i have a fondness for black and white cats over others because of her and when i saw yours i got so excited! Unfortunately my current dogs don't like cats so i can't have any for now, but hopefully one day. Also yes that doll is such a Marilyn reference! That was actually my thought when i first saw her too! I haven't gotten around to seeing any Marilyn Monroe movies yet, but she's extremely iconic so her looks get redone all the time so i see references in many different places. But the doll is absolutely beautiful and hopefully you figure out a way to keep those earrings on soon so she can be displayed!
Yes, I agree, I hope they lean even more into Barbiecore! That's amazing your dogs don't eat doll stuff 😆 I have both dogs and cats, so the cats would fling small pieces around, and eventually they would reach the dogs who would then chew/eat what they found 🤣 it's like they set up a little scheme to get things they're not supposed to have hahaa. Anyway, I actually have two black and white cats! The one in the video is Alfie, and his brother Spotty looks almost the same but has more black spots (hence the name 😁). I guess I'm not super familiar with Marilyn, outside of her white dress 😅
@@KATCoh they definitely have a scheme together to get things😂 oh wow you have a spotted cat too? I had one! My parents had rescued a litter of 4 kittens before i was born, a solid black, a tuxedo, and 2 spotted, one had a couple of spots and the other had several. The one with several spots was actually my first cat, but after he had to be put down I turned to the tuxedo and like I said she was by my side for the first 15 years of my life. Yeah them going back to making barbie actually LOOK like barbie is amazing! And they're giving better articulation and accessories like they used to, instead of looking like dollar store knock offs. They're actually starting to put quality back into barbie. Mga still has better quality, (I am loving all the bratz releases 😊) but barbie is getting better than she has been the last few years.
The first thing I noticed when I saw her, was her retro eyes! I love them , I think she is a fantastic doll! I do have a minor pet peeve and that is the clear straps because they turn yellow over time. Removing them is easy, though you are altering a "collector`s" doll but I dont mind that. It`s a pitty thought that they made the beautifull Odile mermaids so pixelated. This is one of the most beautifull and interesting face molds Mattel has ever given us, people are going as far as to predict that Odile face is actually replacing Millie and Barbie in general. I have to say that I wont be mad if they do that 😁. I have seen some Millies that I really like though.
You're right about the straps, but it shouldn't matter if she's a collector doll or not. If you want to make a change to your doll, that's your business. You paid for her, she's yours! I wouldn't mind if Odile replaced Millie, but they would have to do the screening just right to make her feel like Barbie herself. Somewhere between this screening and the mermaid screening so she looks like herself, just in a new evolution.
Marilyn Monroe was in a film in the '50s called Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. In it, she performed a musical number titled Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, and she wore a pink satin gown with gloves and a white fur stole just like this doll. Also, Madonna made a music video in the '80s for Material Girl in which she dressed just like Marilyn did in the movie's musical number.
Using your phone looks really good to me 😄 I tried to watch your livestream but apparently my dog is not a fan of livestreams and he was trying to attack the TV so I thought it’d be good to not watch it and let him cool down. He’s fine with this video though 😄 Those annoying t-ties!! Yes, superstar Barbie is what I grew up with too! She really has such a gorgeous face and I’m so glad you waited so you could get her for way less than the space cowboy Barbie! I wish Odelle would be the standard Barbie face and not Millie, but oh well. Oh no I’m sorry the earrings are so loose on her when you removed those plastic pieces! I liked your unintentional pun and I am glad that the Fang Club usually does give early access so that to me is at least a win 😊
It could be your dog was hearing the occasional noise from my family in the livestream, even if you couldn't hear it. My cats were also meowing at the door a couple times 😆 he must have very sensitive ears! Someone else that commented mentioned there's a rumor Odile might replace Millie. Nothing concrete, but maybe Mattel finally realizes Millie is not popular and is oooold 🤣 Yeah, idk why they designed the earrings that way. They would have looked just as good with fully closed loops 🤷♀️ That's true, I wasn't thinking about the early access. That is a good reason if you're going to try for Skullectors and stuff.
Wow that's really weird. Are you guys in Canada? Because I checked the website, it's still $9.99 for the membership and $50 for the doll from what I can see.

Yaaas her eyes are one of my favorite features!!

I've heard Diamons, but I never knew the exact origins of the song. Thanks for the history lesson 😊 I've also never seen the Material Girl video lol.

Great review:)
Thank you! 🥰
Cat: Is this earring a treat for me?
Right?? 😆
Sorry to hear about your camara, I remember you saying it in your live stream. On a good note the video dose looks great!
Thanks! I still have to tweak things a little, but I guess it waa time for an upgrade 🙃
@@KATC Your welcome!! I can believe it, I take a long time to get used to anything technology
She is gorgeous, I’m upset mine came with paint missing on her eye and lips.
Oh no, that sucks! That's the bad part of only being able to order online :/
Girlfriend purchased the barbie 59 club membership with her gala collection pink premier she paid $16.00 for the membership and $85.00 for the barbie
