Okay, but DH thought they were doing Pairs because of the lift, lol.

I think it's "one size fits all" and it's very cute.  We already have an Ice Skater Barbie (or two) at home, but I'm thinking of getting it for someone else who skates.

Oh, I was just trying to be funny.

I did consider going to Amazon and write a scathing review on the toy as if written by an ISU judge as a joke (anyone see Bic for Her, or Three Wolf moon T-shirts, or 1 quart of milk reviews? Hysterical) but just too much trouble. Plus the serious Barbie people would track me down, and look hurt.

That would be funny to people who were "in" on the joke, lol.
