THE BIRDS BARBIE DOLL BLACK LABEL COLLECTION Echoed from the set of the classic Alfred Hitchcock film -- the surreal and spellbinding Tippi Hendren, as beautiful socialite Melanie Daniels, in cinematic detail with the unpredictable birds. Ages 14 and over.
Great reminder for The BirdsReviewed by Alfred's Buddy, 2010-02-04
This Barbie brought back fond memories of Alfred Hitchcock movies. Our friends think it's kinda funny. Thanks for the memories. The Birds Barbie is Great!!
A Gift For A Barbie CollectorReviewed by Bonita J. Stanwick, 2010-01-31
I bought this as a gift for a friend who loves this kind of stuff. After seeing how cool it is, I bought two more! They recipients adored it. They arrived in a prompt and timely manner and were packaged very nicely. I would recommend this vendor as a reputable dealer with quality products.
This is great!Reviewed by Teddy D., 2010-01-24
My cousin is a huge Hitchcock fan so I gave her this for Christmas. She loved it!! She had never heard of the "black label" collection before, but I know she's looking at this collection now. She also loves Lucy, so I'd bet she also now has the Lucy/Ethel set. Great product!! We need more original items like this on the market, especially when they're directed at baby boomers. Mattel... you hit a home run with "black label"!
The ultimate gift for the Hitchcock fan who thinks he/she has seen

Well...
I saw this "Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds" Barbie doll and I knew I
had to have it! I love Alfred Hitchcock and this Barbie was
certainly a great idea for a great homage! The recreation of Tippi
Hedren is great... the falling hair after the bird attack... the
suit... the black birds... everything is so evocative, this is
indeed the perfect toy homage.
Naturally, this is a collector's item, therefore, it is not
supposed to played with. Children will probably ask "what happened
to her? Why the birds?" But the answer is simple: THE BIRDS is
simply one of the greatest films ever! I could not think of a
greater honor: to be released as a Barbie doll.
I'm not a doll collector... by this one captured my imagination and
I am already going to have to control myself when Mattel releases
more Hitchcock dolls. And I already have my favorite ones on my
mind:
REAR WINDOW - This Barbie recreates Lisa Freemont when she she
first appears.
VERTIGO - This Barbie recreates Madeleine Elster with the hairdo
and the gray suit she wore when she died... and the necklace,
naturally...
PSYCHO - This Barbie comes in tones of gray (since the film is in
black & white). This is a naked Barbie that comes in a
shower... screaming! LOL
Other Barbies I'd love to see...
Gloria Swanson from SUNSET BOULEVARD - The final scene... "Alright,
Mr. DeMille..."
Anita Ekberg from LA DOLCE VITA - The fountain scene!
Joan Crawford from JOHNNY GUITAR
Bette Davis from JEZEBEL or NOW, VOYAGER
Cyd Charisse from SINGIN' IN THE RAIN... the beautiful dream
number.
I guess I'd better stop now... or I'll go bankrupt. LOL!
Just Like the Movie - great for collectorsReviewed by A. Joki, 2009-12-17
This is one of my favorite of the Barbie Collector dolls. I was so surprised when they released this as a subject for a Barbie doll - it's definitely not for kids and kind of scary. But the box is beautifully designed and you really get a feel for the movie from it. I haven't taken it out of the box but I am very happy I purchased this and it is displayed right next to my computer.
