Very pretty doll but it's super annoying that the swimsuit isn't removable. I don't understand why Mattel does that.

I Love this doll
I have the 35 year anniversary Barbie that I got several years ago as a gift. I used to collect many Barbies but had to cut back. I saw this doll in the Sports Illustrated Magazine and I had to have it for my collection. I have placed next to my 35 year Anniversary doll. This doll was original sold through Target at $25.00 but sold out. I got it on Amazon for $54.00 and I have already seen it higher on Ebay and the secondary markets.
