It's Elina, in an idle flying position. If you play it you can see her dance and change to rainbow form. I don't know how to make it into a gif or isolate the rainbow animation

hello guys, how long i've been thinking... the crest of courage and merliah's tattoo have very similar aesthetics, the crest of courage (which has no wiki page, i think it should have) has a real meaning, but merliah's tattoos have no meaning they just appeared in the 2nd movie. but my doubt is the aesthetics of these two brands have any meaning in real life? Does this symbol exist in any culture?
It is time to determine the best fairy character picked by us, the fans! All you have to do is answer the questions to vote, there are 8

6. Glee or Mariposa
7. Nori from Fairy Secret or Rayna?
8. Talayla or Henna?
Fairytopia figures were made for Kinder Surprise and I think they were in Italy, I'm not sure if they were released anywhere else though. One source says they were made in 2009 one says 2001, so I'm unsure about that too.
Character names from Barbie movies that have been changed in other countries. Brazil ver;
In the cinematographic world it is common that in the dubbing of other countries some things end up being changed, including characters' names, in today's post I will mention some of these adaptations, but focus on Brazilian adaptations.
Elina
In Brazil, our dear Elina had her name changed to "Fada do Campo" which means "Field Fairy" or "Garden Fairy". It is not known for sure why this sudden name change occurred, but this is how Elina is known in Brazil, and many do not know her real name.
Catherine Beadnell
In Brazil, it was not his name that was changed, but her surname, Beadnell was replaced by "Brito", for being a more popular surname, and Beadnell would end up not captivating the public. How do you think that sounds? Catherine Brito!
Enchantress
The sweet Enchantress had her name replaced by "Rainha das fadas" which means "Fairy Queen". The reason for the change is also not known for sure, but there is a theory that by translating her name, which would be "feiticeira" implying that she would be a witch, which would make the children confused, because how would the queen have that name when the villain is Laverna.
Sunburst
Another character from the fairytopia franchise with a changed name haha. Sunburst had its name changed to "Fada Solar" which means "Sun Fairy". The name change may have been due to the fact that Sunburst is difficult to pronounce, and its translation would be "Reluzente" that wouldn't sound good in portuguese either.
Mariposa
As we know Mariposa is a name of Spanish origin, which means butterfly, but in Brazil Mariposa was literally replaced by "Butterfly" Because in Brazil Mariposa means Moth, so they preferred to translate it into English which is more beautiful and the children associated her with a butterfly that is more beautiful than a moth. [extra information: when Prince Carlos calling her, he calls "Linda Butterfly" linda means beautiful, nobody knows the reason why, maybe for make it clear that he has a crush on Mariposa.]
Catania
Catania is not a very common name in Brazil, so it was replaced by a similar and more common name, this name is "Catarina" this is a name of greek origin that means pure.
And these are the names of characters that were changed in the Brazilian adaptations, did you like this Fun fact? Check it on my Tumblr:

Characters from Barbie movies who are/were disabled, you just didn't notice.
1• Elina
Elina is a fairy and was born without wings. Perhaps we hadn't noticed, that in the fairy world Elina would be considered physically disabled, as she was born without the member of her body that promoted her to move in the most normal way for fairies: flying. After all, Elina gained wings from the Enchantress, these wings would be your prostheses.
2• Princess Catania
Unlike Elina, Catania was not born physically disabled, but her disability was due to an accident, her wings breaking after the confrontation with Gwillion. Like other living things, when we break a part of the body, with the right care, when we got better we were able to move, which was not the case with Catania, who healed her wings, but could no longer fly, thanks to the anxiety and post traumatic stress, which left Catania without flying for 8 years. Your Pegasus Sylvie, was his only way to get around.

I am new to the Fandom but I have always been a fan of Barbie movies. As you can probably tell by my name, I was born for this!
*now edited for language
I've been watching videos on doll merchandise later and I just have to say, what the heck Mattel?
It's understandable that they wanted to shift focus from traditional princess stories to more fashion oriented ones (which, I personally don't agree with - although the LGBT undertones definitely persist), but why not make dolls of more of the characters beforehand if you wanted to sell merchandise anyway? It's not like there wasn't a fairly substantial market in both children and adults for a lot of the minor characters, and the few dolls put out of them kind of suck tootsie pops.
Hear me out here:
Fairytopia Franchise
Sunburst
Linden
Glee
Laverna
Enchantress
Dahlia
Nori (justice for Nori, seriously!)
Honestly, I wasn't interested at the time but I would kill for the special necklaces/charms from all of the fairies. Instead we get, well. This. :
12 Dancing Princess
A special full set of the 12 Dancing Princesses! Maybe a one time offer? It feels like the characters from this one were just forgotten about entirely
A Countess Rowena would also be sick
Princess and the Pauper
Where is our Preminger? Where, I ask?!
Swan Lake
Okay, hear me out here. An Odile doll. they could even shake up the hairstyle, a reskinned Raquelle.
Fashion Fairytale
What happened to Marie-Alecia? Where are her glasses? Why does she look like a 50s rocker lost all her makeup and merged with a terribly underdressed historical princess? You could even have the mannequins and little dresses, or make a bundle pack with her and Barbie, and their outfits to wear.
Mariposa
Henna. That is all.
Diamond Castle
Hear me out here, Lydia. I know she's a villain but dang, look at that design.
Also, you know they'd make absoltue bank on selling official "diamond heart" necklaces.
Princess Charm School
So, there's no Isla doll here because it appears that in all merchandise, Delancy was actually meant to be the third member of the patented Girl Power Trio (DVDs, patents filed for naming rights prior to announcemment, etc.) However, it's absolutely time to change that! Isla is kick ass and as a young teen it was super cool to see a Barbie character who was interested in music too. There's definitely a market for it now, even if only among adult audiences. (Seriously though, how weird is it to see this? https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/barbie-movies/images/a/ad/41MNY4fmQWL.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/500?cb=20140104023047)
Pearl Princess
1) Lorelei is a stone cold strong attractive woman (I am not allowed to use the acronym, according to guidelines.)
2) Does anyone else find it weird they didn't try to market some strange "hair studio" toy? Seems off brand for Mattel. Imagine having the power of Lumina, and tranforming your "favourite character"'s hair, or your own! It'd be some dumb pearl pin or spray thing, I think.
3) A Kuda toy would have been super cute! Imagine a little bathtime one, haha. Kids in the target demographic probably don't tend to bathe as much as shower but tactile, squishy things are super fun at any age.
Mermaid Tale
Calissa is pretty much a rip off Enchantress, at least design wise. I'm genuinely surprised they didn't try to milk this. Then again, I guess kids probably wouldnt find mummy dolls very cool.
Also, Eris.
The Pink Shoes
Where is Hailey????????
---
I feel like Mattel seriously underutilised characters they could have absolutely capitalsied on, even in a special appeal to an adult audience. Limited time dolls, for $200+ a pop? I wouldn't sign up (probably), but I know some people absolutely would.
Also, a jewellery range. Fairytopia especially. Imagine, one of Elina's necklaces, but real and official.
That's all for today, folks. What characters do you wish you could see more of in merchandise - and is there any merch that you think was an absolute flop?
Cheers

Just a little thought: Barbie Fairytopia is the perfect movie to watch right now! In the beginning of the movie, Elina and Dandelion find themselves alone at the Magic Meadow, because everyone has gone home due to a fairy illness. Sounds like self isolation and schools closing to me :) It is also very colourful, and perfect to watch in spring.Have you watched any Barbie movies recently?
Is there going to be a new movie with Elina? I have been waiting for it for ages and instead of a movie with Elina, we got Mariposa. I loved Mariposa but I really would love to see Elina again.
