And I hope we see new designs representing other disabilities as well. I love that they didn't stop with just the height and size differences when it came to adding body type diversity to the line! :)jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-14434670615267335582019-07-19T18:58:45.307-07:002019-07-19T18:58:45.307-07:00Yes, I'm hoping they'll do additional doll...Yes, I'm hoping they'll do additional dolls with the prosthetics in other skin tones and eventually on a jointed body as well.<br />They've done a doll that's meant to look like someone with albinism, so maybe a doll with vitiligo will be on the horizon as well! :)jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-5084514431073807102019-07-17T19:14:47.037-07:002019-07-17T19:14:47.037-07:00I think they should've gone all out and gave t...I think they should've gone all out and gave this girl a MTM body. I saw someone customize her into one on IG and she looked amazing! The prosthetic leg was still straight, but she posed nicely otherwise. I'm excited about the idea of this doll as well and what it symbolizes to the future of dolls. :)Farrahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01131848005650508647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-20417367774861792732019-07-16T10:59:45.984-07:002019-07-16T10:59:45.984-07:00I saw that you published this a few days ago, but ...I saw that you published this a few days ago, but I didn't find the time to properly read this and comment. Busy life.<br />I do agree with most of what you said, it's a great concept for a doll, but it could have been better. Since they made 2 wheelchair dolls, they could have made also 2 dolls with a prosthetic leg. Also,considering that this is an unique body, they could have made an articulated version. Maybe Mattel just launched this one to test the waters and they will come up with better ones in the future. <br />I think that, overall, Mattel is moving in the right direction making dolls with different abled bodies. I hope to see more of this type of dolls in the near future. Also, I'd love to see a doll with vitiligo.

I wish they'd made this one jointed though!jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-9869673405833365422019-07-13T20:37:14.968-07:002019-07-13T20:37:14.968-07:00Love the idea of this doll JS, just don't like...Love the idea of this doll JS, just don't like the way it's been put together and hate the very obvious seam in the grey leg! And how come she has a pink foot at the end of the prosthetic leg, it looks kinda weird. I think Mattel need to research this better beforehand, if they are going to do it, do it well or not at all.<br />Hugs,<br />XXanaduhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06811340443530378970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-67248323347172378962019-07-10T07:42:45.766-07:002019-07-10T07:42:45.766-07:00Yup, I appreciate that they have this doll in thei...Yup, I appreciate that they have this doll in their most affordable collection, but at the same time have a hard time not wishing there was also a higher quality version.

Like you, I'm not fussed on her hair or outfit either and while the prosthetic leg looks good, I think it could have been designed a bit better but overall, I think it's great they are bringing out dolls like this.AlasseCarnesirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10014121062303198129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-90305942697935165512019-07-09T09:15:19.419-07:002019-07-09T09:15:19.419-07:00I did wonder if they picked such a short dress jus...I did wonder if they picked such a short dress just to maximize the buyer's ability to see the prosthesis through the packaging! :)jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-89767846298372335432019-07-08T14:00:53.940-07:002019-07-08T14:00:53.940-07:00I think it's great that they've included t...I think it's great that they've included this girl in the collection, I like how people with disabilities are being included in the dolly world. I agree that the dress is a little bit on the boring side, maybe they thought they'd been adventurous enough with the prosthesis so why bother with the outfit!! <br />She has a very pretty face by the way!<br />xxSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816580427584989752noreply@blogger.com
