Hannah Montana Doll

Ever since Disney launched its incredibly popular hit show "Hannah Montana," girls across the United States and beyond have been hooked on the lyrics, laughter and adventures of its teenage star. She's a girl who lives a secret double life in the midst of the chaos that is adolescence. During the day, she's Miley Stewart, an ordinary schoolgirl, but once the spotlight hits her, she turns into Hannah Montana, the young and upcoming rock superstar. Miley Cyrus, the daughter of country one-hit wonder Billy Ray Cyrus, is the actress who plays Miley Stewart, a.k.a. Hannah Montana. The Hannah Montana tour features songs and routines from the TV show, and tickets for it have sold out in minutes and at record speeds across the country, making it the most popular music event in America. 

The Hannah Montana doll is meant to bring that experience to life in your home. The Hannah doll is fully pose-able and has long, blonde hair that kids can brush and style. She comes with a handheld microphone so that she can sing along with her "fans" and a brush for styling. That's it for the accessories; the set falls a bit short in that department. She could have some school books and a backpack for Miley's persona, and since Hannah Montana is a musical character, it's surprising that every doll variation doesn't come with a CD or DVD, even the smaller sets. On the other hand, the fact that the doll comes with two complete outfits for both the Miley and the Hannah personas. 

The casual ensemble for Miley Stewart features a silky polyester lavender shirt with rouching down the front and triangular overlapping straps at the top. Over this, she wears a royal purple short jacket with black decorative buttons running down one side. Her belt has swirls of gold and silver on a dark background, and she wears it over a dark pair of slim denims and brown cowboy boots.

For her gig ensemble as Hannah Montana, the look is more flattering: suddenly, she's not the demure teenager trying to fit in; she's ready to hit the stage in a two-piece sleeveless dress outfit. The dress has a scoop-neck and is white with a rose-colored pattern, a fitted waist, a triangle hip skirt, and a black polka-dot belt. A pair of black pants and knee-high black boots complete the look. The outfits are chic and in touch with 2007 fashion trends without being too adult.

An added bonus is that the doll is standard size, meaning that Barbie and MyScene outfits will usually fit her. Not all of their clothes are interchangeable, but kids should be able to accessorize the Hannah Montana doll using toys from other brands. Also, the Hannah Montana doll has other sets and scenes on sale to add to playtime, including a concert stage for doing what Hannah does best – perform. For the price, it's a quality set, especially considering that the doll will work well with other doll sets. 

Remember, the sold-out musical adventure concert, "Hannah Montana / Miley Stewart: The Best of Both Worlds," will run throughout the holidays and into next year, so there's no telling how long this doll will be available in the rush of the season's frantic shopping sprees. In order to have a Hannah Montana doll for winter break (and maybe even a concert trip), it's wiser to order now and beat the rush.
