    "Fulla" Muslim Barbie

    Photo here http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/a-...5032135918.html

    SHE is the must-have toy this festive season, flying off the shelves. But the season in question is Eid al-Adha next month, not Christmas. Santa Claus means nothing to her.

    Fulla, the Muslim doll, is now thought to be the best-selling girl's toy in the Arab world, two years after she first came on the market, displacing her Western rival, Barbie, in shops across her native Levant.

    With thick black hair and large dark eyes, Fulla is the physical antithesis of Mattel's blonde, empty-eyed

      Yeah, I saw her on TV last night. What a beautiful doll she was. Mattel is going to make a doctor Fulla and a Teacher Fulla also..

          They are all over the toy stores here. I have bought a few of them and sent them back home to friends who are doll collectors!

                They are cute dolls actually,

                you can even buy one of the Fulla dolls with a travel set, luggage, and she's all dressed up in her black abaya, etc, and she has a trolley for her luggage, with high heeled shoes.

                or you can get her clothing separately too..

                  Everyone used to buy my stepdaughter barbies for bdays etc. She never played with them. She tried to like them you could tell..but she just would toss them aside.

                  Me? I was a spoiled only child , I had every Barbie there was, and every motorhome and vehicle and ken doll LOL. I think I secrectly even played with barbie till i was about 14. I used to sit and dress my stepdaughters barbies and try to get her into it LOL.
