Barbie Exclusive 2009 GOLD Fantasy Series - APHRODITE

Super pretty doll!! Great to get this doll for my collection! They are not cheap for reals.

I'm giving it a 5, as it has some beautiful touches, but close to deducting a star for quality. These 2 huge names, Tokidoki and Barbie could do better. The little clutch purse especially, it really takes a dive here. A little cheap looking scrape of plastic. This could have, and should have, been so awesome, with each detail receiving the attention you expect from the brands. The dress too, how hard would it have been to make a gorgeous dress, with quality fabric, for this limited edition collectors doll? Come on, this dress is sad. BTW, I'm not a Barbie collector, left that after the tween years, but am a Tokidoki fan, and have come to expect great quality.On to the good! All that being said, would I still recommend buying it? Yes, NOW, before you have to pay any more for it. I love the Tokidoki collaborations, and they usually skyrocket in value pretty quickly, then settle out, and shoot up again in a year or 2 when the next one comes out. Not to belabor the whining, but I would have been a lot more upset if I had paid more.Her tattoos are beautiful, the little cactus pup is awesome ( there's that Tokidoki quality!) head pieces are cute. The shopping bag is good, if they could have given the same attention to her clutch....The graphics on the box are gorgeous and a full clear window for enjoying without touching.If your a TKDK girl get it, get 2, 1 for you and 1 for collecting investment.I'm glad I got this, but I do feel so sad about the disappointing issues.Uh oh, after writing this I went back to the product page, and now it's reduced to about $20.00 less than I paid for it????? Oh.......now REALLY sad face!

Paid $40 on Amazon, sent it to my daughter, It's on ebay for $80-100 now

This is a Tokidoki Barbie the pink hair one, there is a purple hair one that much more cost wise. They are just alike but I believe the purple one is either a gold level or platinum level Barbie..If your a serious collector then you might want to invest in the purple haired one.. all that said... this is a black level,and she is stellar. I think the pink is more barbie anyway so I love it. This one isgoing for $75 dollar retail so this price is a saving off retail. It has so much detail... tattoos on her back, arms are wonderfully done,and her jewelry and pet is all Tokidoki cuteness. Years ago they had a black level barbie depecting Alfred Hitchcock scene from the movie Birds,it was modeled after Tippi Hedron (I hope I spell her name correctly) it had her in that famous green suit being attacked by those evil ravens..it was $18 dollars when I brought it and now it worth hundreds..so black level Barbies this adorable are sometime worth more later as well. Either way its a very eye catching Barbie

I realize a lot of people buy these for collections and never remove them from the box. I am of an age where I don't want things in boxes anymore. I am fascinated by Tokidoki and this Barbie is fabulous with it. I particularly love the tattoos which are very precise and high color. The clothing has just the right attitude as do all the very well made accessories. The entire ensemble has just the right funky attitude. I love the facial features and the make up. I have never owned a Barbie before but I picked the right one to start! Even the box is Tokidoki perfect. Charming, whimsical and tons of fun. I got this for myself as a birthday present. It is delightful.

I bought it for my daughter's Christmas present in 2019. Absolutely gorgeous. She's taking great care of it. I got it at a steal, apparently, for $75 at the time. Now it's over $400. Yes the tail and top comes off with velcro. No her legs are not fused together. Yes she is jointed, but not like a bjd doll. Yes you can put shoes and other clothes on her. Her crown is sewn into her head so it can't be detached unless you cut it off. The earrings are really loose and dangly so they can be easily lost. Be careful. Her hair is of great quality.

Shes beautiful! Perfect for a collector! Arrived in pristine condition! Very unique Barbie

I'm not a Barbie collector but I had to have this one. The doll is very stylish and "eltonish". The packaging is very unique and colorful. My only complaint would be that the box has a tear on the bottom and two lower corners are dented in slightly. Also, the small front cardboard panel on the front has come loose. Not pleased with all that but I will keep it. I love the doll!
