| Mattel Shero Alex Morgan doll and some 2020 Fashionista dolls |
I do apologize for this fuzzy photo*. I'm leaving it to show the doll's appearance in a local Target store (for locals, this was taken at the South Philly Target). If you are a fan of the U.S. women's national soccer team, you might want to add this doll to your collection. You can read about her in this Barbie website post. If you cannot find her near you, you can order her from Mattel. I have no interest in team sports. I don't find this doll attractive - she reminds me of a homelier Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, doll by Arklu Ltd. However, she is on a Made-to-Move Barbie body so ... maybe if she was discounted enough, I might get her and attempt a repaint.
Aside - the real person, Alex Morgan, looks much better than Mattel's doll. The doll's mouth has an exaggerated V-shape. Then again, you can tell whom the doll is meant to be - if you know about soccer, etc. - so maybe a skilled doll artist could improve the resemblance? Maybe. What do you think?
*If I see this doll again, I'll replace this photo.
