New Fashion Fever Outfits

I found four cute new Fashion Fever outfits at Walmart today. The packaging is the smaller single outfit packaging from the last wave. This cute picture is courtesy of Forum member Cyano. I will post some pictures of the actual packaging in the gallery soon.

Barbie Shanghai Dolls

Just announced today to Barbie Fan Club members is a special international release of "Barbie Shanghai Dolls." Planned for an international release later this fall, there will be 2,000 of these Barbies available to Barbie Fan Club members. There are two dolls featured and they are styled with shopping bags and a puppy dogs with doggy carriers. There is a blonde doll and a brunette doll and they appear to have the Goddess face mold. You should have received an email from Barbie Collector announcing these dolls if you are a fan club member. I will post more information as soon as it is available. It appears that these dolls are playline dolls and look like Fashion Fever dolls with belly button bodies.

The Barbie Collector shop is offering a discount on the purchase of two or more Dolls of the World. Now might be a great time to pick up Sumatra. Be sure to use the links here at the blog! She is also on sale at Toys R Us online for $13.98 in the U.S.

The 2009 Barbie Convention Registration Forms Are Available!

I was really excited to receive news that the Barbie Convention Registration forms for 2009 are now available. You can download the form at the Yahoo 2009 Barbie Convention Group. Please note that you may have to register for the Convention Yahoo Group to download the form. Today is the first day of the 2008 convention in Kansas City. I can't believe it's been two years since my first and only convention. It was such a wonderful experience especially because it was in Los Angeles and just a short car ride away from me. The 2009 convention will be held in Washington D.C. on July 7th through July 11th. It will be very special and I'm sure a lot of surprises will be in store because of Barbie's 50th Anniversary! I do hope to get together with other members of the forum. It would be just fantastic to have a table with nine other Doll Cafe forum members.

Hope your summers are all starting off great! Here's a little Hello Kitty for your viewing pleasure!
