 I should have never bought this thing!!! July 19, 2008
Mariposa headache
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased this doll for my daughter's 5th birthday. She loves Barbie and wanted this "beautiful fairy doll" for her collection. One of her biggest attraction's to this doll were the wings... but they have become MY biggest headache. They are continuously falling off, regardless of what she is doing with the doll. I feel like I am putting them back on every other minute when she is playing with this doll. It frustrates me that Mattel has put out a doll that is not up to their usual par. I would have returned this doll, but my daughter loves it so much that I couldn't do that to her.
What a piece of junk!?!? June 23, 2008

Yes, as all the other reviews say, the wings fall off constantly. I've designed plastic retention clips for automotive applications and can safely say that they designed the clips incorrectly. Mattel should be embarassed with how badly their designers blew this design and recall the doll - it is junk. Within the first 30 minutes of play, I put the wings back on 10 times and finally told my daughter not to try to play with the wings. What a disaster of a toy.
 Nice doll, but I'd pick the one with smaller wings June 6, 2008

My daughter has never seen the Mariposa movie, but fell in love with this doll because it's a fairy and a Barbie--the best of both worlds as far as she's concerned. We've had the doll about a month now and haven't had any problems with the wings just "falling off." They do come off if the doll bumps hard enough against something or if they're twisted just so, but definitely no falling off the doll with the slightest movement. They seem to snap onto the back of the doll quite snugly, but perhaps they will wear over time?
I do have to say though, that if I had it to do over again I wouldn't have bought this doll--I would have bought the Barbie Fairytopia Mariposa Doll which has much, much smaller wings. Unfortunately I didn't realize a version with smaller wings was available until I already bought the Magic Wings one. The only reason I'd buy the one with smaller wings is that even my daughter finds the size of the large wings annoying sometimes. Often she'll leave the wings at home or in the car when we go out, because although she wants to take her pretty doll with her, she doesn't want to deal with those huge wings!

I bought this Mariposa for my daughter's Birthday. Wings are hard to manage for 4 yars old, so I had to attach them every time.30 min after openning wings broke. They got compleatly loose in the place they connected to the doll. And I had to secure them with rubber bands. Now if wings fell off at least they stay on the doll. I called to the manufactury to order new wings but they do not make them as spare parts. But I will receive a voucher to replace this toy. I fill sorry for my daughter. She wanted Mariposa so much. It is a dissapointment.Unitl this product will be improved I wuldn't recomend to buy it.
