 Ice Water . . .REALLY?? August 19, 2010
Kennyandchristina
I am just wondering why . . .with all the technology we have . . .could this doll have been made to change colors with anything but ICE water?!?! I got this doll for my little girls' 5th birthday. This is the only thing she wanted for her birthday and has asked me for it almost everyday. It came in the mail yesterday and I let her open it early because I was just as excited as I knew she was going to be. She tore through the box and when she saw the doll she screamed!! It was so cute. I was so happy. But the joy was short lived. We . . .like everyone else . . .put the doll in water right away to see the hair turn pink and the tattoos and nail polish change. Of course, it didn't work. She was SO upset! Luckily, I logged on to this site to see if anyone else had experienced this and i read the review that said to use ice water. That review saved the day!! She likes the doll but constantly asks me for ice cubes so "Merliah can change to her mermaid colors." Really?? Come on Mattel . . .I expected way more from you.
 Ice is the trick August 14, 2010

After reading these reviews and the doll not changing color I deduced that temperature of your water is the key. We threw in a bucket of ice cubes in the sink of "cold" water and it finally changed color. I guess success will be based on the color of your tap water and if you are willing to add ice.
Well, at least my daughter is excited about the color change now.
Nice barbie-no color changing August 8, 2010
Irishmom
I asked my daughter what she would give this toy and she wanted to give it four stars. I obliged her, but think people should know that this toy does NOT do the color changing tricks it is supposed to. We bought two of these-one for my daughter and one for her friend. Neither of the barbies hair colors changed when subjected to cool water. The toenails and a few other things were supposed to change as well and did not.
Regardless of the color-changing being non-existent this is a nice barbie. It's also a good price for just a barbie these days.
A great toy if you don't mind that the color changing effects promised DO NOT OCCUR.
 Cool Mermaid Doll July 26, 2010

This is a cool mermaid doll with color changing hair and fading tattos. easily changes to human with a trick of her outfit. My little girl has lots of fun with this doll and loves it so much.
They Love the Barbie Mermaid June 20, 2010
J. Chelus (Tempe, AZ United States)
Both my 2 year old and five year old are having a lot of fun with this Barbie. It is made very well. And it changes from a mermaid to a regular girl. We tried the color changing with some ice. It works, but this is a kind of a gimmick that really isn't necessary. All in all I say it is a nice toy.
