Wizard of Oz: Dorothy Barbie Doll

Product Description

One of the top ten movies of all time, The wizard of Oz enchants children of all ages. In the whimsical story, Dorothy Gale is taken over the rainbow by a tornado. Dorothy travels along The Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City with her Yorkshire Terrier, Toto, searching for the great and powerful wizard to help her find a way home.

Commemorate this favorite tale with a Barbie doll fashioned after Dorothy. She comes dressed in an adorable blue and white gingham dress, and even wears the classic red shoes from the movie. Doll cannot stand alone. Measures 12" tall.

I'd say you expect to much for $18.99. After all 1939 when you may have bought a detailed version for less went by several years ago. For the price Mattel has done an excellent job. The likeness and quality of this item for the price is commendable. If you want better you will find you probably have to spend anywhere from $60 to $100 plus. Do your homework before complaining. I understand when people complain if they spend over $50 and get junk. I don't when they spend less than $20 and still get good quality. Kids that enjoy the The Wizard of Oz ~ Judy Garland 1939 Classic (Import - English - All Regions) should love this.

This doll is a gift for a Wizard of Oz obsessed toddler :). The shoes (much complained about here?) are your typical Barbie shoe (and how well do those stay on?). The ones included were a red metallic finish (no, no glitter). The doll is very much in keeping with a replica other than they did not do her pigtails as in the movies---the doll has 2 braided pig tails with the braiding ending at her shoulders. She comes with Toto and basket. She does have translucent silver glittery socks and her socks in the movie are white (not being picky, just pointing out the differences). Her dress is a shiney satiny material.

The box is nice for a collector because there are no seams or tape to disrupt if you want to remove her from box or save the box, there will be nothing to compromise the shoebox style packaging.

I like that her whole body isn't hinged like other special movie Barbies (like Mary Poppins or Disney's Prince Eric). Dorothy has the joints of your typical Barbie.

Quite disappointed we cannot buy the Wizard of Oz DVD currently but we were able to TiVo it :) Happy with the doll and the discounted sale price on Amazon---I would not have paid the retail price on this as it is just a Barbie after all.




This doll is a great recreation of Dorothy. Extrememly accurate down to all the accessories. Great for collector or Wizard Of Oz lover.


Although the clothes, hair style and Toto basket match the movie and book descriptions, this Dorothy Gale looks much older than the character in the Oz stories. The only style discrepancy is in comparing Dorothy to the book in which her magic slippers are silver not ruby.


I bought this doll for my 2 1/2 year old because her sister (4 yrs) had received one. They both love the doll but it is my 2 year old's favorite toy. She carries Dorothy around with her everywhere and loves the Toto with the basket. (The shoes are cute but I hid them from her until she is a little older). I was surprised that she favors this one over all her stuffed animals.


I am very sorry that the user below was displeased that the shoes did not stay on. I bought this for my sister, and she just stores them in their box and displays them. Since it stays in its box, we did not notice that the shoes fell off or anything like that. She did comment on how gorgeous it was, though, and she was just happy that the doll had ruby slippers. She's easy to please and a Wizard of Oz fanatic, so she would have been happy with anything. Though if you're looking for extreme detail, this doll might not be for you. For the type who wants a fond memory of the movie and a doll to just display, then this will be fine.


The doll is cute but not as described by Amazon. First I bought it new from an Amazon Marketplace seller and thought they just didn't realize it wasn't the same version as the description. So I bought another one at full price from Amazon but it doesn't play any music at all. Please correct the description


Yes, the Dorothy is perfectly detailed, she is almost as great as the original Mego version... but, THE SHOES! YIKES! They are not detailed as the other reviewer stated, I'm wondering if this lucky person got another doll that Mattel is selling. The shoes that came with my doll are cheap plastic ones... no sparkles whatsoever. Would it have killed Mattel to add glitter to the shoes? Worst part to come... the shoes will not stay on the doll. If we put them on with or without the socks, they will not stay on. So basically, the best part of the Dorothy doll doesn't work. We were so disappointed, that we complained to Mattel. They couldn't help us with this particular problem, but offered us a generous gift certificate to buy something else. Of course, my daughter wants the Glenda doll.... wish us luck with her shoes!


I love the Wizard of Oz, and for Halloween I thought about being Dorothy, but I decided to be a cowgirl instead. Her ruby-red shoes are so detailed, and her dress looks so cute on her with her brunette braids and smile. And little Toto in his cute picnic basket couldn't get sweeter. I totally want this adorable doll, Dorothy, and her dog, Tot, from the Wizard of Oz!

this doll is so detailed from the replepca dress to toto and the beautful ruby slippers this is the new verson of the old 1999 dorothy doll (in the list)the 1999 dorothy is better if you wish to play with her, but this is a collecters one but the only thing bad about this one is the 1999 one has better loking ruby slippers then this one and the 1999 one has lite up slippers! so if you want one(like me) to play with then get the 1999 one or the new or both it don't matter as long as i get my hands on one!i'm a boy it sounds werid that i want one but i LOVE the wizard of oz! i say if you want it, get it 5 STARS!
