2006 Holiday Barbie Doll by Bob Mackie

Product Information

Her dress has Holly prints and motifs all over, and it couldn’t be more obvious that she’s a festive doll. Mattel made Holiday Barbies for collectors, and you can see the special address on the bottom of each doll’s box. She’s one of the Holiday Barbies that make collectors feel represented, seeing as she’s not wearing the regular English or American style formal gown.

Each Holiday Barbie has a unique accessory featuring festive symbols like Ornaments, Snowflakes, Stars, Holly, Fig Leaves, and more. It’s one thing to have a doll still intact – hair laid, dress freshly pressed – but to have it in its box is even better. Ruth decided playing with paper dolls wasn’t enough after observing her daughter Barbara’s love for them. The Holiday Barbie for 2021 shines in a silver gown with off-the-shoulder ruched sleeves and a metallic bodice with sculpted “gemstones. As you can see, the worth of Holiday Barbies depends on their year and condition and the year they were made.She’s also one with beautiful festive accessories, including a red, gold, and green headband complimenting her holly-style dropping earrings. In line with the growing consciousness on representation, Mattel designs three skin tones and hair colors for each Holiday Barbie though the physique takes on the original statuesque style. The Never Removed From Box(NRFB) has less than perfect packages but nothing too serious – a fraying here and yellow there but still intact.

While the Celebration Barbie welcomed the new Millennium, it couldn’t beat the anticipation of the Millennium Princess. There are some wildly different estimates about how much Holiday Barbies are worth across the internet. Holiday Barbies are more exquisite than regular dolls because of their fancy hairstyles, exotic dresses, fancy boxes. Also, unlike the other Barbies, their dresses are monochrome except for a few limited-edition two-toned designs.It’s a far cry from the Damage Box Holiday Barbie whose box has more significant wear and tear, although it’s never been removed. Online sales through auctions or old-fashioned ads fetch the best value, and it’s the fastest way to get a quick sale.

Apart from the fact that her pink ballgown captures attention, she has a fancy ribbon in her hair too. As exciting as a new year is for everyone, it doesn’t compare to the joy at the turn of the century, or better, Millennium.While they’re all valuable, the models before 1995 are the rarest, followed by the early 2000 models than the more recent 2010s since those are still very available.
