RAINBOW HIGH Shadow Doll - Natasha Zima

The product arrived missing the boots.

This is one of the prettiest dolls in the Rainbow/Shadow High line, by a mile. The whole concept is excellent, making Natasha look like she has a snow theme. Her second outfit is better in my opinion than her first, although dressing her in it is quite tough. If you are unpacking and helping a child to dress her, it's a good thing to note that you might need to gently pop out her hands to get her arms in the sleeves, and then pop them back again. (This is something that should be done by an adult, with care, and not rushed, so that the pegs don't get broken). Her boots are also quite tricky to get on, and a child might also need assistance with this. Natasha has plenty of long hair to style and brush, which is one of the main appeals of these dolls. I have heard that some have paint issues on their make up but mine fortunately does not. She is a very striking and attractive addition to my doll shelf and I highly recommend her, both to older kids and to collectors.

A boneca é linda, veio com roupa para trocar, é toda articulada, mais a boneca veio com um lado dos olhos com os cílios abaixados, mas não que me incomode muito, não recomendo para crianças pequenas pois é uma boneca branca e pode facilmente sujar, e a caixa NÃO chegou nem um pouco danificada

Mia figlia aveva chiesto proprio questa Shadow High a Babbo Natale, con mia perplessità perché il suo pallore spettrale unito agli abiti bianchi la rendeva peggio di Morticia Addams. Ma un desiderio è un desiderio, non si sindaca. All'apertura mi sono un po' ricreduta: gli abiti sono ben tagliati e pieni di piccoli particolari accurati, il corpo è interamente snodabile, gli scarpini deliziosi, i capelli perfetti da pettinare. Trovo insopportabile la quantità di plastica inutile della confezione e continuo a interrogarmi se sia una buona idea o no inculcare più o meno consapevolmente alle bambine l'idea di dover essere maniacalmente attente al modo di vestire, truccarsi e acconciarsi. Ma tolte queste - secondo me non secondarie - perplessità, la bambola è veramente, veramente bella e meritevole di una spesa superiore all'ordinario. Però attenzione: il prezzo pieno è del tutto irragionevole e personalmente suggerisco di acquistarla in promozione.

SHE CAME IN EXCELLENT CONDITION SHE IS MY TOP FAVORITE 😍 SHE IS SO STUNNI G SHE LOOKS LIKE A BEAUTIFUL SHADOW ANGLE SHE IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND HER FOR KIDS AS SHES WHITE AND IT CAN GET DIRTY FAST IF KIDS GET THERE HANDS ON IT IDD WOUlD WAIT TILL THERE OLDER !! BUT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR DOLL COLLECTORs and she is my fourth one of this brand !!!!

She was so much larger than I expected—which I love! If you’re a mom or a gran who’s buying this doll sight unseen but for the photos on Amazon, she’s not at all comparable to a Barbie or Monster High girl—she’s more along the lines of a Blythe doll, if that’s familiar to you. Large head and more slender body. At any rate, she is lovely. I’m going to add a photo which shows scale in just a bit. I’m a big fan of grayscale dolls which all started back in the day with a Frankie Stein grayscale and this lineup of dolls is no different, except to say that they are, if anything, even prettier than my sweet old Frankie. I plan on picking them all up. This photo was taken before I unboxed her, but her hair is wonderfully soft, she is poseable, the clothes are sewn (!) and they’re really cute. I like her second outfit a bit more—those slouchy cloth (!) booths and the beaded tank and mini make me think of a sixties go-go dancer at the TAMI TNT show (iykyk) and she’s so worth the price for what you’ve purchased. As always, I think dolls like this are a bit more suited to adult collectors than they are to kids, unless you’ve got kids who understand the value of their toys and are careful when they play. I was a fussy kid who, at 54, still has all her dolls in various states of ‘very good’ to ‘excellent’ so I know I’m kind of an outlier on this point. I still think that a child of about eight will do well with these as long as they too are a bit on the careful side. If not, ten is more than big enough. Dolls are meant to be played with and loved, and kids will certainly do both with these. Getting Nicole next, then Shanelle, then Heather, then Rexx, then…yeah. Love them!
