The Matchmaker Magix Mulan Doll is a popular toy that is based on the character Mulan from Disney's animated film. This doll is part of the Matchmaker Magix line of dolls, which includes other Disney princesses such as Ariel and Cinderella. The Matchmaker Magix Mulan Doll is a highly detailed and articulated doll that stands at approximately 11 inches tall. It comes dressed in a traditional Chinese dress with beautiful embroidered details and accessories such as a hair comb and matching shoes. What sets this doll apart from others is its unique feature – it has a magical hair color change! When you dip the doll's hair in cold water, it changes from black to bright pink, mimicking Mulan's transformation in the film. This magical hair feature adds an interactive element to playtime and allows children to recreate Mulan's iconic scene.
My decision is for anything that I have to do in this life. So if I see this presence of the feminine face of God around instead of trying to follow what the Catholic Church says, I should be more open.
I m a Catholic because I, myself, I need some discipline, I need the religion, I need this collective worship that our religion allows, but at the same time, I m open to spirituality in general, and at the end of the day, I m responsible for my acts. YDSTIE In The Witch of Portobello, the main character is named Athena and she becomes a spiritual leader in the reemergence, I guess, of the ancient goddess religion.
This magical hair feature adds an interactive element to playtime and allows children to recreate Mulan's iconic scene. In addition to the color-changing hair, the Matchmaker Magix Mulan Doll also comes with other accessories, such as a fan and a mirror. These accessories can be used to enhance imaginative play and storytelling.
On my shelf: The Witch of Portobello by Paulo Coelho
To be honest, The Witch of Portobello is the first book of Paulo Coelho which I read. Before you react violently, NO I haven’t been living under a rock not to notice his works. I was simply distracted by all other books (a whole lot of other books hahaha). I know that he has written a lot of notable novels over the years and I was really excited that I now have the chance time to read one of his books.
I asked a couple of friends of mine on which Paulo Coelho book I should start with first and I got a lot of suggestions. But most of them recommended that The Witch of Portobello should be my first. So I followed that advice which brings us here to this post.
That is joy. Happiness would be feeling satisfied with everything she already had — a lover, a son, a job. And Athena, like me, wasn’t born for that kind of life. – Edda
I really want to like this book. I really really do. But I just can’t. It’s one of those books wherein a lot of people love, with the exception of me. I had nothing against the premise of the novel. I like that it talks about spirituality and discovering your true purpose, at least I think that’s the message I got after reading it. I found the “interview type” or “documentary” style of story telling a clever way of narrating different points of view. I think it was able to open up the story well. I just didn’t feel the connection with the main character Sherin / Athena and her plight.
Maybe I was just expecting too much from it, I wanted it to make me feel more inquisitive about my purpose and my beliefs since the story is mostly about the journey of self-discovery. Maybe I was expecting it to influence me in such a way that most books do after I’ve read them.
I won’t give up on Paulo Coelho’s works just yet. I’ll go out there and pick another book of his, though it would have to compete with so many other books that are clamoring for my attention (haha).

Reviews for "The Magical Journey of Mulan and the Matchmaker Magix Doll"
1. Jane - 1/5 - I was extremely disappointed with the Matchmaker Magix Mulan doll. The quality was poor and cheap, with the doll's hair falling out and the clothes easily tearing. The supposed "magix" feature was also underwhelming as it simply involved the doll's dress changing color when exposed to water. Overall, it felt like a poorly made and overpriced toy.
2. Mark - 2/5 - The Matchmaker Magix Mulan doll did not live up to my expectations. The advertised magical transformation was rather lackluster and the doll itself felt flimsy and fragile. It was difficult to position the doll as it lacked flexibility, and the paint on the face chipped quite easily. For the price, I expected a much better quality doll with more impressive features.
3. Samantha - 2/5 - I found the Matchmaker Magix Mulan doll to be quite disappointing. The concept of a color-changing dress was intriguing but the execution fell flat. The color change was hardly noticeable and lasted for a very short duration. Additionally, the doll's limbs were not articulated well, making it difficult to pose and play with. The overall quality of the doll was subpar and not worth the price.
