Just looking at her exquisite face brings joy into your heart. Who can resist her gentle smile and expressive eyes that seem to sparkle from within! Adorning her long, soft curls is a golden halo, while her flowing gown with golden trim swirls gently like a soft coud around her graceful body. A vision of happiness and serenity with her delicate golden wings, Angel of Joy Barbie is your own special angel to treasure and bring joy wherever she's displayed.

Review: Boneca impecável, completa e lacrada com todos os certificados de autenticidade. Chegou dentro do prazo! Perfeita para aumentar a coleção com uma boneca de 1998 com custo benefício.
Review: La figura es preciosa y cumple la espectativa de coleccionista. Pero la mía llegó con la caja claramente envejecida y doblada, chafada de haber tenido cosas encima. Totalmente inadmisible para quien busca calidad de exposición.
