Barbie Signature Dr. Jane Goodall Doll Set

The item is a Barbie doll set, specifically the 'Dr. Jane Goodall' doll from the Barbie Signature collection. The Barbie doll itself is depicted wearing an explorer-style outfit consisting of a light-colored, possibly tan or beige, short-sleeved shirt with a collar and matching shorts. She has a dark accessory around her neck, likely binoculars, which are also visible separately within the display box. Her hair is dark brown and appears to be pulled back into a ponytail. The doll's facial features are designed to resemble Dr. Jane Goodall. The set prominently features a chimpanzee figure, which is a key element given Dr. Goodall's work. This chimpanzee figure is black and has intricate detailing to mimic a real chimpanzee, including fur texture and facial expressions. The packaging is a box designed to look like a jungle or research environment, with lush green foliage and a backdrop featuring a jungle scene. One side of the box, visible on the left, showcases the doll and the chimpanzee within this thematic setting. There's a label that states 'MADE FROM A MINIMUM OF 75% RECYCLED PLASTIC', indicating a modern, environmentally conscious manufacturing approach. The box also includes a black and white image of Dr. Jane Goodall herself, along with text identifying her as an 'Ethologist and Conservationist'. The right side of the box, which appears to be an open display section, contains additional accessories, including what looks like a pair of binoculars, a small blue notebook, and possibly a stick or tool. There are handwritten notes or quotes within this section, adding to the biographical theme. A white price tag is adhered to the top left of the box, indicating a price of '40.00' and 'The Gallery Edge' as the vendor. The overall condition appears to be new or very good, as it is still in its original packaging. The construction of the doll and accessories is likely plastic, given the nature of Barbie products, with fabric elements for the clothing. This item likely dates to the modern era, given its emphasis on recycled materials and the recent release of role model Barbies.
