Our take on the Mattel Barbie Color Reveal Doll

A Barbie Color Reveal doll is a surprise-reveal toy: you dunk the doll in water and a coating washes off to show the doll's look, then open the hidden accessories. Each doll is about 12 inches tall and made of plastic, aimed at kids 3 and up. The appeal is the unboxing moment rather than poseability or detail, so it suits young kids who like surprises more than collectors. Compared with standard Barbie Fashionistas dolls, it trades outfit quality and styling for the reveal gimmick.

Questions and answers

How does the Color Reveal work?
You place the coated doll in water and rub or swirl it until the coating washes off and the doll's look appears. Then you open the hidden accessory compartments.
What age is it for?
Mattel rates it for ages 3 and up. Small hidden accessories mean younger children need adult supervision.
Does the color stain?
Owners report the coating can stain hands, clothing and tub surfaces. Rinse promptly and have kids wash hands after the reveal.
Is it reusable?
No. The reveal is a one-time effect; after the coating is gone the doll plays like a regular Barbie.
How does it compare with a standard Barbie doll?
It is about the same height but has simpler styling and fewer fashion details. The draw is the surprise, not the outfit quality.
What is in the box?
One coated Barbie doll plus hidden surprise accessories in the packaging. Exact pieces vary by doll in the line.
Where is the Mattel Barbie Color Reveal Doll cheapest?
At Hobby Lobby, for $13.99, as of our latest check.
