Kelly Roberts - Barbie's Sister

Kelly first appearance ever was in 1991 with Todd, as I had mentioned before at Midge's wedding to be a flower girl, but as Barbie's sister was only in 1995, in the toy dealers 1995 Mattel Catalogue she was the "baby" of the family (replaced latter in 1999, for Krissy Roberts). She supposed to be in kinder garden age, around 4 years old, Measuring 4 ½ inches tall, She had a full head of glossy platinum blond hair, an established trademark of Barbie dolls of the time. Her facial features were screened in a fresh and simple manner, reflective of the real life toddlers she was modeled after. Adding to her charm and innocence was her "bottle-mouth" for inserting a bottle or pacifier, both of which came with the first Kelly. A fun addition to the "baby" theme was that her body was made to smell baby powder fresh! Kelly was no inanimate baby doll created to lie motionless in a crib. Rather she was articulated with jointed shoulders, hips, and head. This afforded many different toddler action poses. The New Baby Sister of Barbie came packaged with everything Kelly would need to become an instant fixture in Barbie's world: sleeper, diaper, hair ribbon, dress, tights, shoes, bed with movable rail and mobile, blanket, bottle, plate, spoon, jar, pacifier, rattle, toy bunny, comb, and brush.
