Mattel Barbie It Takes Two 'Malibu' Doll

This is a 2021 modern Barbie doll manufactured by Mattel, specifically from the 'It Takes Two' series featuring the 'Malibu' Roberts character. The doll is constructed of molded vinyl and plastic with a light skin tone. Her hair is platinum blonde, styled with bangs, and appears somewhat frizzy or unkempt in its current state. On her back, the doll features a distinctive 'Genuine Barbie' embossed logo on the permanent red/pink molded plastic sports top, which is part of the torso mold rather than a removable fabric garment. Below the crop top, the lower back and waist area are stamped with professional markings including '© 2021 MATTEL', '1186 MJ, 1, NL', and 'MADE IN CHINA'. There is also a small alpha-numeric code 'F07HF HJL60' visible on the upper back/neck area. The doll features 'Made to Move' or similar style articulated joints at the shoulders and elbows. The condition shows signs of play wear: the hair is tangled, and there are dark marks or potential ink stains visible on the back of the thighs near the permanent red swimsuit bottoms. This doll represents the contemporary era of Barbie manufacturing where clothing pieces are often integrated directly into the body sculpt for specific playline series.
