Barbie Looks Models 4, 7, and 2 |
I am also grateful for the Barbie Looks dolls. Looks #4, #7, and #2 are my favorites from this line.
I hope Mattel continues to offer diverse lines. I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that the Shonda Rhimes Barbie will be produced and in sufficient quantities for everyone who desires one to purchase at retail. Mattel, can you hear me? "Shonda Rhimes is CEO of the global media company Shondaland... In her career, Rhimes’ work has been celebrated with numerous awards including induction into the Television Academy Hall of Fame. She has shifted the entertainment industry’s business model and changed the face of television." (Shop.mattel.com)
Happy Birthday, Barbie!
Update: Please sign the petition for Mattel to produce the Shonda Rhimes Barbie. Please sign it here.

Oh wow! The Shonda Rhimes doll is beautiful. I hope they release her too.
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely doll. I immediately knew it represented Shonda Rhimes without reading the description. Keeping hope alive that Mattel will produce it.
