Mattel Special Sparkles Collection Snow White Doll

This item is a Mattel Snow White doll, part of the 'Special Sparkles Collection,' presented in its original packaging. The doll depicts the classic Disney character, Snow White, wearing her iconic ballgown. The gown features a dark blue bodice, voluminous red and blue puffed sleeves with a shimmering, iridescent quality, and a full, bright yellow skirt overlaid with a translucent, sparkly yellow organza or tulle-like fabric. A large white, stand-up collar frames the doll's face, consistent with Snow White's traditional attire. The doll has black hair, pulled back slightly, and light skin tone, with painted facial features including blue eyes and a rosy smile. The packaging is a cardboard box with a clear plastic window allowing the doll to be viewed. The box's design is vibrant, featuring a purple top panel with 'Special Sparkles Collection' in a stylized script, and 'Snow White' printed above the window. The bottom of the box has a decorative border with pink flowers and a romantic illustration of Snow White dancing with Prince Charming. The 'Walt Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' title is prominently displayed on the lower front of the box. A Mattel logo is visible in the bottom-left corner of the box. The overall condition appears to be new in box (NIB), suggesting minimal to no wear to the doll itself. The box shows some minor creasing or shelf wear, particularly visible along the top edge, consistent with age and handling but without major damage. The plastic window appears clear with no significant scratches or cracks. The box's internal golden foil-like backing emphasizes the 'sparkle' aspect of the collection, reflecting light around the doll. The doll represents a nostalgic collectible and a product of mass-produced toy manufacturing from the Disney/Mattel collaboration, likely dating from the late 20th century.
