A Stunning Collectible Doll
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ken Dia de Muertos doll for 2024 is a gorgeous piece designed to commemorate Dia de Los Muertos. Our whole family was really impressed with the quality of the doll and the detailed costume and makeup. The box is also stunning. We used it as a display piece for the end of October and early November. It spurred conversation with my children about Mexican culture and the practice of remembering the dead, so in addition to being visually appealing, it allowed for educational moments as well. The only thing my kids were disappointed about is that I would not let them take Ken out of the box to play with him. Instead, this doll was and will continue to be treated as a collectible piece. This first year, Ken was displayed in the box, but I may take him out of the box next year and use the included doll stand.

Great collector doll
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an awesome collector Barbie to own. It means a lot to our family to honor one of our sons who passed away. Great job, Mattel with representing Mexican culture through your toys. This will be one that gets handed down!

Fun for both kids and adult collectors!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the sturdy, oversized packaging, to the intricate details of the face and suit, this is playable with other Barbies, but definitely worth taking care of. This is more of a collector's doll, worthy of the display case the box doubles as. I was able to use it to teach my daughter a little bit about the holiday, and the traditional wear and makeup of those who celebrate. Overall she had fun adjusting the clothes, fastening the belts on the hat and pants, and posing him in the box. We are keeping him stored inside the box when not playing, to be sure he lasts awhile, and because the box is a piece of art in itself.

Ken dia de muertos doll
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was beautifully crafted, throughtfully designed and absolutely a magnificent peice of art work. The box is something beautiful all on its own. The doll is absolutely gorgeous. At first we didn't want to open it and just keep it as a collectors item, but after some thought, it was decided to gently play with the Ken doll. Although I was initially worried about the paint and design wearing off, I'm so happy to report that it didn't. This doll has survived being out side in the 90+ degree weather outside on a play set as qell as the rain and colder evenings we have been having of late. As usual Mattel made a great product and it will last for a while for my family.

Great doll and attention to detail
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a great beautiful doll. My family and I love did de Los Muertos and have a few of the first dolls. This one added to our collection is great. Unfortunately I don’t let the kids play with it much, since I want to keep it as is for years to come

Great collectors item
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great collectors edition of Ken. The box that it comes in is sturdy and eye catching. The costume and facial paint that are on Ken are amazing. The quality of this item is quite remarkable. It would be fun for a little one to play with as well since it is so detailed.

Ken Día De Muertos Doll is breathtaking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ken Día De Muertos Doll is a beautiful, respectful homage to the Día de Muertos tradition, embodying both cultural reverence and striking artistry. As a collector, I was thrilled to add him to my collection. This Ken doll is more than just a toy; it’s a vibrant celebration of heritage, making it a true collector’s piece. Ken’s attire is nothing short of breathtaking. Dressed in a traditional charro-inspired suit, he wears a fitted, embroidered shirt and jacket adorned with intricate, colorful motifs symbolic of the Día de Muertos celebration. His floral embroidery and calavera (sugar skull) designs add depth and authenticity, capturing the cultural essence that Día de Muertos represents. The doll’s face is painted in a beautiful calavera style, with details so precise that it feels like a genuine work of art. His accessories are the perfect finishing touch. Ken wears a sombrero decorated with marigolds, the iconic flowers that symbolize remembrance in Día de Muertos. This, along with his other accessories, elevates the doll’s look and showcases the thoughtful design that went into its creation. The use of vibrant colors and textures makes him stand out and pairs wonderfully with the Barbie Día De Muertos Doll. The quality and craftsmanship of this Ken doll are exceptional. He comes with a certificate of authenticity and is housed in a beautifully designed box that highlights the essence of the celebration. The packaging itself feels like a collector’s item, ideal for display. For anyone interested in Día de Muertos or cultural collectibles, this Ken doll is an exceptional choice. It brings cultural celebration to life in an accessible, elegant way, making it a valuable addition to any collection. This Ken Día De Muertos Doll is a meaningful piece that will resonate with collectors and fans alike for its cultural significance, artistic detail, and timeless appeal.
