Barbie Rainbow Lights Mermaid DHC40

Shall we swim?

The little mermaid is good because you can play with her underwater and she will make an excellent company for a bathing baby. The princess of the underwater world has a tiara (removable), and her whole appearance is iridescent and fabulous: a cute smiling face without makeup, thick blond hair with pink strands, a bright bodice (plastic, not removable), and, of course, a tail. It is made of plastic and consists, as it were, of two halves: the back is matte pink, and the front is transparent, imitating fish scales in texture. The fin is attached separately.

Bright lights: tricky tail

A secret is hidden in the tail: if you click on the stone of the princess's necklace, it will begin to shimmer with all the colours of the rainbow, it looks especially impressive underwater. There are several flickering modes (somewhat reminiscent of the operating modes of a Christmas tree garland). Powered by 3 x AG13 LR44 batteries (included), battery compartment located on the back of the doll. By default, one “session” of flickering lasts 10 minutes, then the “sleep mode” will turn on, but by pressing the button again, you can turn it on again.

Peculiarities

Users note that the mermaid is made very high quality, and her hair is well stitched, and even after repeated washing and even soaping with shampoo, they do not come out, and remain silky and flowing without turning into a washcloth. The only inconvenience is that the doll's tail does not bend, so, alas, she will not be able to sit, and in order to stand on the tail, you need to lean on something. The little mermaid is not very mobile: only the head (in all directions) and arms move (they are retracted to the sides, they do not bend at the elbows).

Alternative: A cheaper alternative, the Sitting Mermaid is the Barbie Gem Kingdom Mermaid.
