Disclosure: No compensation was received.
Mattel is releasing a whole line of Barbie, revolving around girl power.
Meet Hello Barbie:
Hello Barbie uses a speech recognition platform, to have a two way conversation.
Hello Barbie requires wi-fi connection and can be used for a hour before needing to be charged. Rechargeable batteries are put in the dolls legs and can mount to her charger.
This doll sounds like so much fun. I did ask: If a child says a curse word or something inappropriate, how will the doll respond? She said that the doll would respond with Lets not talk about that right now, or thats not nice. Parents can set up the software to avoid certain conversations. If you don’t want your child talking about relationships or boys for example. You can put that in your parent controls and Hello Barbie will avoid that conversation.
Look how cool Hello Barbie is.
Hello Barbie doesn’t have a official release date yet, but will retail for around $75.
Mattel is also releasing a lot of other cool Barbie dolls and toys.
New Fashionistas:
The new fashionista dolls:
New fashionista dolls are fashionable of course, but they have expanded to include different skin tones as well as hair colors and more. Girls have been asking for a bigger variety of dolls and now you are getting it.
These dolls are available now and retail for $9.99
New Dreamhouse and Camper:
Barbie will be living and traveling in style.
Barbie’s dreamhouse is back and has a better design.
For the first time in her Dreamhouse, Barbie will have a garage that opens and closes to fit her dream car. They have also updated the elevator so it is easier to use. You just pull a small lever up or down. Barbie’s dream house will come complete with all the furniture including interchangeable pieces. A end table can be switched with just a few pieces to become the bathroom sink or the kitchen stove. It will save space in the Dreamhouse.
Barbie’s Dreamhouse will be available in June 2015 for $199.99
Barbie’s camper is much like her Dreamhouse. From the outside it looks like a ordinary camper, but can pull out to be a 3 story house.
Camer includes a bathroom for Barbie, a pool with waterslide, a fire pit with sticks and marshmallows to add to the fun of camping.
This play set will be from the upcoming movie Barbie and Her Sisters in the Great Puppy Adventure. Available June 2015 for $99.99
Career of the year: Film Director
After spending years in front of the camera, Barbie is finally calling the shots. Plus so simple doing it with jeans, a pink top and flats.
Film Director Barbie will be available June 2015 for $12.99
There is so much more coming out for Barbie in 2015!!!
This would have been fun to see. Hello Barbie sounds like quite the toy, but at $99 she should be! If she grew more interactive I could maybe see it, but to me, it would get as tiring as the old dolls with a pull string it would be limited.
I do like the new fashionista dolls. I like how they have become more diverse and they are priced very modestly so more kids can enjoy or collect her.
