Thanks for the heads up on this. My Toys R Us and Wal-Mart are out, but I'm going to check Target now.
 
They are sold out everywhere in my area
 
Thanks, but I don't need another Barbie in this house after having 2 daughters. Luckily they have outgrown Barbie:)!

Yes, you did. You just weren't paying attention to the information.
 
You're right. I missed it. :cry:

I had the original (blonde) when it first came out and my sister got the dark haired one since her hair was black too. Had we only known what we know now...
 
We got one at Sams at Christmas. You may want to try there. And have you looked online?
 
it is sold out almost everywhere already. It was in all the sale papers on Sunday.
 
I predict they'll be up on eBay for hundreds of dollars very soon - if not already.
 
Well, they have the $3 one and then they have a collectors Barbie from different years and shows how Barbie has changed and that one is $40! I checked Wal-Mart today and saw it. I would love to buy one, but can't see spending that much money on something that you don't open!
 
you want to talk original? 2 of my sisters were lucky enough as little girls to get some originals...they still have them. these are the ones that were bald and you had different hair to put on them...they are really neat...my sisters are in their 50's now....I'm not sure why they were the only ones to get them since there are 9 girls in my family. I was too little at the time and I'm 47 now..OUCH

anyone that is still looking if you have a kroger around you I would check there
