Hey Barbie collectors and kids who love fun dolls! This is the 1996 Mattel Splash 'n Color Christie doll, a super cool African American Barbie friend. She comes wearing a cute two-piece bathing suit in blue with gold trim, plus she's got some gold earrings to complete the look. But here's the magical part: her braid changes color when you dip it in warm water! It's like a little science experiment and playtime all in one. When the water gets cold, the color disappears, so you can do it over and over. She also includes a brush so you can style her hair. Made in China, this is a neat vintage-style doll that's perfect for play or even collecting if you're into nostalgic Barbies. Just be careful with the water temperature and have a blast watching her hair transform!
