After debuting our Radio City Rockettes at last summer's Barbie Convention, the response for Rockettes have been really overwhelming. We offered replicas of these Christmas themed Rockettes in our last newsletter and we were surprised at how many orders we received.

We have decided to continue producing Radio City Rockettes each year through our newsletter and we're proud to debut the second in our series of authentic Radio City Rockette replica dolls.

This past Christmas season, we received tickets to see the Spectacular and this was the first time in years that we revisited Radio City. As New Yorkers, its sort of a tradition to see the Christmas Show at Radio City almost every year and seeing it for the first time in a long time really brought us back to our childhood. If you're a fan of Christmas then a holiday visit to Radio City for the Spectacular is an absolute must-see on your list!

2007 marked the 75th Anniversary of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular and that was celebrated by creating an entirely new show, along with truly gorgeous new costumes for the Rockettes thanks to the Swarovski company.

It was these amazing new costumes that we decided to create for our 2nd NiniMomo Rockette. These costumes are dazzling and brilliant on stage and our hand-sewn beadwork along with genuine Swarovski crystal accents really help to re-create this ensemble for Barbie.
