BARBIE & THE ROCKERS DANA

YEAR: 1986

PURCHASE CONDITION: Boxed 

PURCHASE DATE: February 2026

MOLD: Kira

OUTFIT DETAILS: Original. 

NOTES: This is the second series Rockers Dana. They're the ones who "dance," which is a pretty fun feature. I never had her as a kid, because the original Dana was my first Rocker, but I did have Diva and Derek from this series. I still have Derek, but not Diva, so I may go track her down. While I think the original Dana is far superior, I am a little surprised that I took so long to add this one to my set, because she's still superior to a lot of Kira mold dolls. 

BARBIE & THE ROCKERS DANA

YEAR: 1985

PURCHASE CONDITION: Unknown 

PURCHASE DATE: Unknown

MOLD: Kira

OUTFIT DETAILS: Rockers fashion from the 2008 reproduction Barbie. 

NOTES: I have no idea when I got this Dana. I'm pretty sure she isn't my childhood one. She's not in great shape, but she's still a Dana, so I wasn't getting rid of her. The boots on the outfit are not holding up great, which is disappointing, as they're not even 20 years old. 

BARBIE & THE ROCKERS DANA

YEAR: 1985

PURCHASE CONDITION: Boxed

PURCHASE DATE: Unknown, likely early 2000s

MOLD: Kira

OUTFIT DETAILS: Original

NOTES: My second childhood favorite doll! I bought this Dana boxed off eBay, not realizing she was a variant edition. I don't remember any details, though I do have an older photo of her marked "Spanish." Not sure if that means Spain or Spanish language on the box. She has some notable differences from the version I had as a kid, mainly the purple bracelet and silver earrings. I do love this Dana as a neat variant, but I need to buy a regular one someday.
