Mulan


Matchmaker Magic Mulan 
Disney on head, Mattel on back
1997
String in back to shorten her hair.
Original outfit, no shoes.  Flat feet
Supposedly when you took warm water and wiped it on her face, something would happen. 
Tried it, nothing happened.
Mulan's face looks like she is wearing Kabuki Style make-up. (She has make-up lines) 
Thrift Store find.

  1. Try cool water. Maybe that will work. It worked on the shaving Ken dolls.

  2. Thanks Ms. Leo. I just tried it and nothing happened. Maybe she has been out of the box too long. Really wonder what is supposed to happen?

  3. I know this is late, but I have one of these dolls, and the make-up is meant to appear when the face is wiped with warm water. Perhaps yours was damaged in some way when you bought it?

  4. Anonymous, I bought the doll 2nd hand in the Thrift Store. So who knows where the doll was stored for all those years before I came across her. Could be something in the Vinyl.
    Thanks for commenting!

  5. Try soaking a washcloth in warm water, wringing it, then setting it on her face for a couple of minutes.
