Malibu Barbie
First introduced in 1971, Malibu Barbie quickly became one of the most popular and enduring dolls ever created at Mattel. Sporting for the first time a healthy sun-kissed tan and using the Stacey face-mould, Barbie tapped into the California surf culture with free spirited fun and frolic. Dressed in her trademark blue tank swimsuit, "Malibu" Barbie comes with her sunglasses and fuzzy yellow beachtowel, just like she did in 1971. She also comes with a bonus fashion. "Lemon Kick" is one of the most sought-after Barbie fashions of the era. Coming at the tail end of the Mod craze, "Lemon Kick" is a gorgeous two-piece playsuit made of sunny yellow pleated chiffon. It's comprised of sheer palazzo pants, matching solid yellow tap panties, a top trimmed with white braid and pink ribbon, plus a pair of cute yellow pilgrim shoes. This reproduction Barbie was created in celebration of Barbie doll's 50th anniversary, favorite dolls and period fashions return, recreated in loving detail. If you missed your chance before, or no longer have your beloved Barbie, now is your opportunity to reconnect with a long-lost friend! Each set includes a reproduction Barbie doll, and extra reproduction fashion from the era and a collector's booklet. Malibu Reproduction Barbie doll features a new, more accurate body sculpt, and the face paint and hair texture are almost perfect matches to the original. The Lemon Kick fashion is also lovely, and it's a vintage fashion I've always admired. This doll is available at a discount price from Amazon.com to take a look Click Here
