Robyn from Barbie Life in the City

Robyn is a character in the Barbie Life in the City series.

Ebony-complexioned Robyn comes with a café kiosk with shelves and accessories. 

Robyn has a non-articulated petite body, brown painted eyes, rooted brown natural textured hair with auburn highlights, and paint-on black baby hair. She wears a pink fruit-print top with a pink skirt, and turquoise slip-on sandals.

The café kiosk

The playset includes a kiosk with shelving, a reversible "open" and "closed" sign, a cash register screen, and a service counter. A cup of coffee, a pretzel, a muffin, and a croissant are also included. Robyn also has a leashed puppy.

This photo of the top of the kiosk illustrates most of the café accessories and the puppy.

This is a closer look at the counter and cash register screen.

The kiosk, Robyn, and the puppy are illustrated on the back of the box.

Other Barbie Life in the City characters are also illustrated.

Two Brooklyn Barbie Life in the City playsets are featured on the back panel of the box.

Before she arrived, based on the prototype photos, I thought Robyn shared the same head sculpt as Brooklyn Barbie, but their sculpts are different. Robyn's head is marked ©2021 MATTEL. So she is relatively new. I am not sure if Mattel has used this sculpt before, but her face looks familiar. The toothy grin is a bit bothersome, but I can live with it until I decide to give her a closed mouth with acrylic paint. 

In the final picture, Robyn sits with Barbie Looks Model #10 for a complexion comparison.

Their complexions appear to be about the same.

 I pierced Robyn's ears with quilting needles, which are used as stud earrings.
