Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
according to the two MAs I talked to tonight, Barbie will be rereleased in June. I specifically asked if the doll would to, and they both affirmed that it would.
That could mean something, it could mean nothing, but they're saying yes.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
I asked the question to the Mac Pro team and Managers in NYC yesterday. None of them thought is was true at the exception of the release of a few Barbie dolls, maybe 500 but not many so that the value wouldn't go done.
They thought that I was speaking about the restocking that they got in April.
Considering all the new collections coming out in May-June, i doubt that they would be able to release the whole Barbie collection as well.
The Barbie dolls in some major stores, maybe.

I asked about the April thing, both said it was the orders placed in April being filled for the dolls etc.
*shrug* Ibought almost the entire collection, so I'm not sweating.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
So I found out the deal on this. Only certaing locations will be getting barbie restocks. They said it depends on how fast the collection sold where you were at, and if you got a restock in April. Turns out, not everyone did. The manager I talked to said she just got the memo last week for her store to get ready for a restock, not only with the makeup, but the barbie as well. She wasn't sure what makeup was coming back, but she told me she could put me on a list to receive a doll. So, not every location will be the same. Just see if any counter/store near you received a memo stating that they will get a restock. HTH!

its soo unfair! i live in the UK and the barbie collection sold out soo quick.. so i dont see why they arent bringing it back out here, even as you say they wont be restocking in every store just some. thats so pathetic, i hate mac for this i really do. I dont see why they cant keep the best collections out because they will get more money and sell out all the time GRRrrr

^I know what you mean. I wanted to get some more things from the collection but the counter I went to only had Fab Blush and I apparently got the last one.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
Perhaps all of us UK girls could email asking why they aren't releasing again here, then they might get the hint! I couldn't get any barbie stuff as I don't live anywhere near a counter and the website was manic! I'd love it if they released it again, all I'm asking for is the pearl blossom beauty powder! Plus the collections seem to stay up on the US site for so much longer than on the UK one, it's very annoying.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
Someone on Makeup Alley said that a MAC person told her that "Rocking Chick" will be back June 1, but that's all I've heard.
<Hope, hope, hope.>

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
Just a FYI....I was at MAC Pro NYC yesterday (5/25/07) & they had about 15 Barbies....for those of you who missed out the first time. I don't know that they'll ship, but it's worth a call.
PS...I still have heard nothing about an entire re-release, but we did get a second shipment of everything a while back (and have a bunch of it left). If they re-release it, I don't think that it's going to do so well. I know almost all of my customers are over the whole Barbie thing-as are most of the MAs I know too (myself included).

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
I hope they do restock it... I have all the e/s, blushes, & beauty powders, plus the doll, and Malibu Barbie lipglass, but... I would love to get all the lipglasses & lipsticks, plus a couple of backups.  I would have bought it before, but I ran out of money, lol.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
I saw dolls @ my freestanding store on wednesday. i didn't think they'd bring back an entire collection again, but this one was pretty popular and coveted.
I wouldn't mind getting another Fab blush, it's amazing. I don't ever get a backup of anything because I can usually find/create my own dupes, but this one was something I can't find one for. People recommended other blushes, but the finish and the pearl wasn't the same.

Personally, I'd like to buy some of my favorite items from this collection to give as birthday or Christmas gifts.
I wouldn't mind scoring another "Malibu Barbie" Lipglass for my own use, either.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
I grabbed another Style It Up lipstick the other day because I LOVE IT, and I really want a backup of Real Doll. I hope more are coming! I wanted Pearl Blossom as well.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
Is it going back on the mac site in june too & does anybody know which stores will have it? Is it true you can call a store and order over the phone and they will ship it to you? I can have somebody order it for me from the us.

Well, I was in MAC freestanding last week and several ladies were asking about the Barbie l/g and l/s. (No, I do not work there, but I was int the store for awhile.) I know the US online store still has eyeshadows as well as some department stores.

Yeah, one or two things (specifically Fab, Malibu Barbie, Rocking Chick & Real Doll)...other than those things, we have 2 drawers full of everything else. Specktra =/= the average MAC customer so as much as some of you need dupes of everything, my average customer could care less.

Re: Barbie collection back in June 2007???
I don't know about re-releasing it. My friend actually called the pro 800 number and they seemed clueless about it when she asked and the CS person said she didn't know anything about that happening and that it wasn't likely.
As you guys have already said, there are still quite a few eyeshadows floating around at the stores and there are still some available online. I'm wondering if those are just the overflow from when they restocked the collection before it was discontinued.
I also know that some of the stores got a new batch of the actual barbies in. When I was at the pro store on the 24th they had just gotten a shipment in and they were shocked and did not expect it at all. Of course, everyone was only allowed one doll per person and NO PRO DISCOUNT on the dolly!
I have a feeling they wont re-release it....but I would love the Malibu Lipglass! I got the Pink Poodle since I wasn't able to get the Malibu and I don't think it has the same amount of shimmer as the Malibu..... then again, I haven't seen Malibu in real life, only online...so I could be wrong.
