BarbieMade to Move Fashion Doll with Brown Hair Wearing Blue Color-Blocked Top & Yoga Leggings, Flexible with 22 Posable "Joints"

This is one of my Granddaughters favorite dolls. She’s bendy. LOL. We have had tons of fun with this doll. She encourages my little one to imitate her poses. So she gets some stretching out of the experience. She’s a Barbie tried and true. Excellent quality as always.

The only type of dolls I will ever buy. It’s pretty tight to move her into position but I’ve gotten the hang of it now. These 2 are the best ones from my brief experience, I do not recommend the curvy brunette yoga doll, I do not recommend sue bird’s doll, I do not recommend the volleyball made to move doll. Just these 2. I don’t know about the other made to move dolls that’s either on here or unavailable on here because I don’t own them. I can only speak about the ones that I do own.

This was my daughter's favorite Barbie. All the joints are movable and "playable". The quality and durability are far better than expected - not cheap. The color has not faded, and my daughter says it's a cute toy and one of her favorite Barbies.

9 year old says it’s great! She loves it, it poses in multiple positions

Update:I got a blue top this time to head-swap with Barbie Paleontologist. I really loved the pretty dimples of Blue Top Barbie. I hope to get another one soon. This one could even stand in flat shoes. Her ankles were just right. Some of the other Barbie Made to Move dolls had tricky little ankles with a mind all their own.Also the peg inside their heads are slightly different, so the neck on one doll looks shorter now.I just got Barbie Made to Move today. I read many reviews about Barbie Made to Move vs. Style Barbie. I just had to try her out. Most people who have the 2 dolls say Made to Move Barbie is a much better poser. This is very true.I liked the rooted lashes and 2-toned hair on Style Barbie the best, so I can't say Style Barbie is a loser. Style also has the bending ankle and can wear both flats and heels. Made to move Barbie has choppy hair. I like it just the same, because my real hair is not all the same length. I thought it looked nice.Made to Move Barbie can bend her knees all the way back and sit down on her knees. She can bend at the breast/ rib cage, but not at the waist. Style Barbie cannot do any of this.Style Barbie can only bend her knees to sit down in a chair.Made to Move Barbie can spread her legs out like in yoga or exercise class. Style Barbie can spread her legs very little in comparison.Made to Move Barbie has much sturdier looking joints except in the ankles, they are almost the same. One thing I did notice was one of her ankles turns inward like she needs her electrolytes. I thought it was the shoes but I traded their shoes around and noticed the shoes were okay. I still like the natural looking poses for this doll. She is a much better choice for those who love doll dioramas and modelling clothes.As soon as I got her out, I noticed one small dot on her foot and face both barely noticeable. To me personally, this is not a problem, but I thought I should mention it. The price was well worth it for this doll. The clothes are nice enough and stretchy so I can go ahead and pose her. I had a couple of pairs of Barbie shoes to try on her. She came barefooted. I was thrilled to find that her jointed ankle makes it possible for her to wear high heels and flat shoes made for Barbie. I have both branded and unbranded Barbie shoes that fit her. I was almost about to sell some of the shoes when I got her, but she is a keeper and loves shoes. The usual Barbie seams are kind of rough in places but that is okay, considering what I paid for her ($11.04). I consider this to be a really great buy.

This is my favorite Barbie body ever, almost action figure quality in terms of range of motion. I don't like non-posable dolls, so the first thing I do with a static Barbie is put her head on a body that will pose decently, and Barbie bodies that meet that need are few and far between. This is the best of the articulated Barbie bodies on the market, and at a more budget-friendly price than an action figure body. Because of the way this doll is jointed, her hips are just a smidge wider than the other modern Barbies (not counting the newer versions with the different body shapes), so trousers or pencil skirts meant to fit the Belly Button Barbie shape might be a tad too small for the Made to Move body unless they're made of stretchy fabric. But aside from that, she can wear most Barbie fashions (and to be honest, I tend to make my own clothing anyway because I can't stand Mattel's current tendency to make most of Barbie's clothes pink, purple, metallic silver, and/or plastic looking!) The one major drawback to this doll is that most of them seem to have the glue inside their head that Mattel has been filling a lot of their doll heads with lately. Not only is this glue unnecessary to keeping the hair rooted in securely, it ends up leaching into the hair when it gets too hot and creating a greasy mess that eventually makes the hair next to unsalvageable. (If you can catch this leak early, a dry shampoo with cornstarch left in overnight then vigorously brushed out might help the problem, but it might not. Mattel, what were you thinking?!) This is not a problem for me since I normally buy this doll for her body and use a different Barbie head on it, but for someone else buying it because they want the whole doll, it can be heartbreaking. I am told the brown haired version of this doll (Bambi?) is less likely to have glue inside her head than the others, but mine certainly did. As for this Asian version, her original head was so packed with the oily glue that her hair ended up being unsaveable. I've removed all of her original hair and washed out her head to do a complete reroot on it. Most buyers who aren't into doll customization are not going to want to go through all that bother, so parents who are just looking for a toy for your child, be forewarned. (That said, there are all sorts of tutorials online for safely removing a Barbie head and putting it on a better Barbie body, and this is an exceptionally good body, so I highly recommend buying it anyway if you're up to 3 to 5 minutes of minor doll surgery. Trust me, when your child sees the cool moves this body can do, she or he will thank you!) I want so much to give this doll five or more stars, but that glue-head problem would be a deal breaker for me in any other doll, so I have to give the Made to Move a star off for that. Mattel, could you PLEASE stop using the greasy head glue, or at least switch to another type that won't ruin a doll's hair?! I live in the Deep South; the only way to keep dolls here cool enough year 'round to prevent your glue from leaking is to store them in the fridge, and that's just ridiculous!I am very much hoping that Mattel will produce their diverse new Barbie body styles with this sort of body soon, as well as a Made to Move Ken. Whether simply posing them for play or to use in dioramas, 1:6 scale room boxes or doll houses, or for display in action poses, the articulated bodies are SO much more fun than the static ones (which might explain part of the popularity that the Monster High dolls are enjoying and the slump in Barbie sales in recent years), and it utterly baffles me that Mattel hasn't moved in this direction much sooner.

I bought this Barbie doll for my daughter, and she absolutely loves it! The doll is beautifully made, with detailed clothing, vibrant colors, and high-quality materials. My daughter really likes the quality. She has like 100+ dolls and is very precise with her choice. She has wanted this doll and plays with it. It has moving, hands, arms and feet which is TOP criteria for her.The packaging was secure, and everything arrived in perfect condition. It also makes a great collector’s item for adults who grew up with Barbie. Definitely recommend for kids and collectors alike!
