Claudia is such a beautiful woman and this representation of her makes her look like a geek. It doesn't look like her. How could they do such a bad job? I love her image as a model, and she was probably my biggest inspiration in the '90's because she's German like me, she was a nerd in school like me, lanky and tall like me, had poor self esteem like me, and yet found her strength and her confidence, and became successful and fabulous and admired by all. Pooh on those school bullies! I took modelling lessons because of her. So I am really upset by the Barbie of her. Claudine also happened to be my middle name, so you can see how she meant a lot to me.

[@Barbination]

I see! It’s just devastating to see a role model not fit to the standard she deserves! 😑 Well, we still LOVE Claudia that is a fact that will never change 🙌🏻💙 european pride for sure!

Oh my, Poor Claudia! Thank you so much for your honest review of her. The doll doesnt make her justice at all, not to her not to the Versace flowy extravaganza dress. The glow up really does make a big difference and I love how she looks in the Christie Dress so much! Happy New Year by the way!!!! ❤❤❤P xXx

Awwwww Arjen, I feel your pain, Mattel let us and Claudia down with her doll for sure, she gave RL Barbie Supermodel vibes throughout her modelling career she was the Barbie girl of the 90's, her doll should have been far better than this! I wanted to get one but upon seeing pictures online I became disappointed that my fave Supermodel got done dirty like this. I do remember Claudia mentioning that she has small hollow eyes and that her makeup was always focused on enhancing them to stand out more. However you brought her to life in your makeover well done she's now serving looks on the glittering runway of your pastel Kingdom. Keep up the good work. ❤🤗✌❤

[@Toywithme200]

In my opinion their playline dolls such as looks, rewinds, etc have better quality than these so called " collector" dolls. I'm not into celebrity dolls at all, but your makeover of her was lovely. 😊

[@Barbination]

Totally true! 🥲 which is just such a shame because these are expensive purchases which should be a treasure to keep and have in one’s collection

[@user-np5vy4ds5o]

I want to add, because i hadn't finished watching your video till now. Wow! You did a beautiful job with her make over. First thing i noticed was her lovely hairstyle and the arrangement you did absolutely removed that pumpkin head look she had originally. What a beautiful transformation. And all three looks were like "Wow!" . My fav for sure was the 'Groovy' look. They were all pretty but that 60's look with her new hairstyle was Oh my Wow! Great job Arjen. Mattel could take lessons from you.😊❤🎉

[@Barbination]

🙏🏻☺️🙏🏻 ahhww Thanks for the kind words! ❤️

[@robertosotoduarte7333]

It’s not an “articulated model muse body”, she is using a Pivotal body, which in my opinion es the best body for adult collectors. I’m just in love with how thin it is and the articulation is not ugly as in the MTM bodies.

[@Barbination]

Ah oke! Thanks for the info! 😉 ✌🏻

[@Bricio_Campana]

the pivotal body is LITERALLY the model muse body in an articulated version. It's literally the same body mold, with the same proportions but articulated 👀

[@Bricio_Campana]

@@Barbination Don't listen to him, you're right lol, the pivotal body is LITERALLY the model muse body in an articulated version. It's literally the same body mold, with the same proportions but articulated xD

[@iannis5416]

Technically you're all correct, this is an articulated version of the Model Muse body, we call the more simplistic articulation 'Pivotal', and this body is what we'd call the 'Pivotal' or the 'Pivotal Collector' body, and call the same articulation on a play-line body 'Pivotal Play-line' or 'Pivotal Fashionistas' since the new bodies with Pivotal articulation have the 'Fashionistas' torso with the sculpted underwear.

[@Bricio_Campana]

@@iannis5416 the articulation may be "the same as the "pivotal" playline but it has the realistic details of the model muse body, the markings of the bones, such as those of the foot, the ankle, the obliques on the belly, the shoulder blades, the lines of the neck, the marking of the thigh muscles, in short, an extra realism that the "pivotal" playline(articulated fashionistas body) doesn't have. the pivotal one has precisely because it is the articulated model muse version as only the model muse has these extra body details. Anyway, but I understood what you meant ❤🙏😋🙏❤

[@janetsplanet2947]

What an extraordinary job you did reinventing Claudia!!! WOW!!!! I agree, she looks the best in the Christie dress. I’d be curious to know what did you redress Christie in? Shes another beauty!

[@ValeriaNotJoking]

I think I just saw Arjen’s short with redressed Christie… she wore blue fairy dress. Please, check if I’m right😀

I love the pink dress on her. But the 60's style is groovy on her. You managed to save the doll with this makeover. Nice job.

As a Bratz collector & huge fan of Versace, the Claudia doll collab with Mattel actually made me consider getting her. I def. think they could of done so much more in terms of quality control & extra detail to make her feel more premium which is what she deserved. I saw in another collector’s review that their doll was sadly pretty bald in the back of her head. On a side note, the 90’s gold dress version of Claudia you mentioned that Mattel teased looks SO much like the dress Bratz used for Yasmin in their “Cult Gaia” collector doll. Literally the same dress but in silver!

[@Barbination]

Right! They look very similar in style 💛 Just too much gone wrong with the creation of this doll, from the head down to even the doll stand 🤦🏼‍♂️

I love the Christie dress on her but my favorite was the pink princess look. I didn't love the peaches and cream simply because, to me, it was obvious that the bust in the dress was way too big for her. Those 80s dolls had much larger busts that today's dolls.

There are two versions of hers, the Worldwide & the US one, it appears they made 5,000 of hers for the US and 1,000 of hers for the rest of the world, they even have different face-ups, where one has blue, sparkly eye shadow and the other one has a brown smokey eye, not sure which has what, but judging from their certificates Mattel Creations seems to have ended up sending you the US one, and she appears to have the blue eye shadow...

[@daisynieves1644]

I'm on the fence because, of her teeth. I look the color of her gown but, I think that when Barbie has a gown, she should come with a straddle stand. The Christie gown was my favorite!

[@nekoboygames7786]

Ikr, I don't understand why mattel won't give their celebrity collector dolls the right body proportion anymore. The dolls are made for adult collectors, so why not give the doll fuller chest. The doll looked kinda flat in the blue dress while the picture of the real person looked very curvy. I remember back in the days when they made the J.Lo doll, they made sure to give the doll those big latina hips that J.Lo had. But now they are being cheap and gives the doll one of their standard bodies.

I believe it is 1000 for US plus 5000 for the rest of the world. So there should be 6000 released in total. At least I think I heard this expanation already by some previous doll. Claudia also comes with two different make-up, one has pearl eye shadow, the other kind of brown. Not sure if that corresponds to the US/world releases though.

[@iannis5416]

That is the exact same info I've come across, but judging from the certificates it's the other way around, they made 5,000 for the US and only but 1,000 for the rest of the world(!!!). And it appears the US doll ended up with the blue sparkly eye shadow.

she is cross-eyed hahahhaha poor Claudia Schiffer

😆🥲

Hello 😃 Does anyone know of another Barbie Doll with the Articulated Model Muse body type like hers? 🤔

[@Barbination]

🤷🏼‍♂️

[@maririntsw1517]

that's why I never buy celebrity dolls, they are always hit or miss (and miss most of the time)

[@Barbination]

😅🤣

[@Tessthesess]

This doll could and should have been so amazing but it's just a hot mess. She is platinum (or? why 5000 dolls?) and I would expect so much better quality, the dress looks cheap (how would Versace permit this badly made dress?), her face is off, it's just a sloppy job! I totally agree with all you said. Having said all that though, you made her look like the supermodel she is! AMAZING! 🤩❤

[@Barbination]

Thanks hon! It had to be done! 💙😅

I wish Mattel just reproduced Barbie Claudia in the golden dress

[@Barbination]

SAME! 😑

[@_pyatihatochka_]

Hi! Does she have a dark scalp? It is kind a strange thing with blond hair

[@Barbination]

Yeah she does! I don’t know why actually!

[@Bricio_Campana]

You were unlucky, yours came from the first batch made, the UGLY ones with balloon heads and very small, close-together eyes. GENERALLY these are from the batch of 5000, the beautiful ones are from the batch of 1000 that were made AFTER the complaints, and Ms. Mattel did more better done with these 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Barbination]

Balloon HEAD! YES! that’s the perfect way to describe her head! 😆 why couldn’t I think of that 🤦🏼‍♂️ anyway! interesting! so the additional 1000 are “extra” ? hmm

[@Bricio_Campana]

@@Barbination yes, they are ❤😝❤, they came later and are more beautiful 🙏

[@asheslaree1713]

Ahhh her face is 🤨 but the hairstyle you did helped so much. Loved the groovy look the best. I wish the celeb dolls didn’t allways look so bad. They are just 9/10 terrible most of the time. I don’t hate Margot Robbie Barbie but that is like the only one. 😅

[@Barbination]

😆😅🥲 It’s always a wild gamble with mattel! Especially when you can’t peek at them first in stores
