Barbie horse info needed!
« on: January 20, 2013, 03:42:20 AM »
Okay, so I got the name but other than that I can't find much info on this little beauty, her name appears to Pacifica, all legs have two joints, the neck and head also move and it's all manual, no batteries needed. I picked it up at the flea market today.

Originally it was $15 but I got $2 off. haha. Does anybody have any more info on this horse? My google powers are weak and all I can do is find images haha. Did I get ripped off or did I get a bargain or is itaverage? I thought she had a hair cut, but if she did it's awfully minor judging from the photos.

OOPS; Just ruined the hooves, I forgot about the joints and pressed down to try to get the head to go down so I could dry it better and scraped the bit of paint off her hooves. DANG IT. I can't have nice things. orz

Is she actually marked "Mattel"?  I don't recognize her but she is really pretty.

Looks like she is from the 2005 Barbie California Girl set.  For fun, here is a commercial (in German LOL).  She is stunning! Congrats!

There is an auction on eBay with one of these horses in good but not mint condition and missing a lot of accessories.  It's going for $9.99 at the moment, so it's probably safe to say you got a good deal on a relatively rare Barbie horse (I only saw one for sale).

*phew!* As long as I didn't pay more! I was standing there and staring at it, weighing up the cost and what not and trying to put shipping on it and everything. I think I'm mostly bummed about not getting it for $10.

Wow I had no idea these were even released, I'd never seen them, and yes- she is marked mattel! although mine only has her bridle and saddle, her hair is silky and uncut and she does have a few marks here and there but, it seems she's come from a super good home. Some little girl treasured her, looks like she was played with gently and sat on a shelf mostly.

She's gorgeous! I just found a battery-powered walking barbie horse at a thrift store like my sister and I had when we were little and I was so excited. But your girl is beautiful!

Thank you, her colouring is absolutely gorgeous, I'm noticing flaws in her now and wish I'd bashed the price down more. one of her back legs is kinda weak and her head is floppy.

You must have dallas! I'd kill for dallas- Except pay for her, I'm broke xDD, do you have any Idea of a price for my horsey?

Is that her name? I didn't know if she was hard to find or what, I actually found her at the Goodwill bins in Seattle and she was less than a dollar! I never find really good stuff at thrift stores, guess I got lucky this time.

Sorry, I don't know pricing at all for Barbie horses! I'm just getting back into the Barbie world since my childhood and I haven't bought a whole lot of stuff since I don't have money either! XD

If it makes you feel better it's the only thing in my whole life I've ever found at a thrift store that was actually worth anything. ;) And I had to beat back the crowd of people to get to the toy bin when the workers pulled it out! :lol: It was really just a happened to be in the right time at the right place kind of thing.
