Sorry guys. This one’s for the girls. The Barbie Digital Nail Printer is part of Mattel’s new line of products called “beautronics”. This Nail Printer is designed to print images directly onto your fingernails using thermal inkjet technology and specially-formulated cosmetic grade ink.
Just insert your finger into the machine and a digital camera inside transmits an image of your fingernail to the computer. With the included Barbie software you can select from 1000’s of image designs and see a preview of the image you choose superimposed on your nail so you see exactly what it would look like on your nail.
If they want, kids can even upload their own pictures for use. The printer takes about 10-15 seconds for each nail. The Barbie Digital Nail Printer will be released in Fall 2009. No pricing yet, but young girls everywhere will be printing on their fingers. The Barbie tramp-stamp maker can’t be far behind.

Don’t buy it! I got mine yesterday and as badly as I want it to work it’s not very good.
If your child is small enough to be proud to wear their macaroni necklace, they will love this, otherwise without a lot of work – it will be embarrassing to wear.
Mattel is resting in public interest to sell this product and did not aim for quality.

Seriously “Elise”…if you didn’t like it so much, you should have just taken it back (maybe you did…I got tired of reading your post). Everywhere I have looked online to read reviews, I keep getting yours OVER and OVER and OVER!! I want to see others reviews, not just 1 unsatisfied customer. We KNOW you don’t like it!!!! Take it back…FOR REAL!!!
I completely agree with the comment above me. ELISE, YOU JUST NEED TO SHUT UP!!! You’ve posted EVERYWHERE! It’s so annoying! I don’t care that you didn’t like it, and I don’t care that your little girl didn’t like it. It looks awesome. Stop trying to convince people otherwise!!!

Maybe Elsie is just trying to help people. Maybe she doesn’t want us to make the same mistake. Really; paying that much money for something that probably is made crappy like the rest of the toys now adays is ridiculus. So maybe you should take her advise and (YOU SHUT UP?)
I think im going to get the Barbie Digital Nail printer for cristmas.
I think you guys were being very rude to Elise. Now the whole point of giving reviews and opinions is to help other consumers not to make the same mistake. So be thankful that someone cares enough to say the truth. She could have just kept it to herself and then someone else may have made that purchase and been just as unhappy. If you want it buy it. Obviously if is is made by a toy company it is not going to be for a teenage girl. My daughter is 7 and if I got it and it did not look exactly like on TV then she would not want it, so then do I bother….hmmmm. May wait till spring to see what’s what so she is not completely disappointed for Christmas…..
I am desperately trying to find the cost and how to purchase the replacement cartridge and white and ink setting nail polish?
Anyone have this information? Just trying to get all the facts before purchasing…
Thanks!
I believe anyone who spends over $300 (amazon selling)even $180 on a nail design machine is completely and utterly ridicuous. I can take my 8year old daughter to the salon and spend a day OUT with her 48 times. That means every month I can take her for 4years and get a superb job done instead of depending on a machine. Not to mention the fact that ink does run out and you have to purchase new cartridges. I mean honestly you could have spent $300 on something that would be of use to the child for more than just a year or two when they decide that they are tired of it as they do all toys. I dont see how someone would get their money’s worth unless it came with lifetime warranty promising replacement of any broken/malfunctioned part and replacement cartridges. Come 2010 I bet this thing will be done and over and will be selling for $30-$40…once the company is done raping everyone for $180-$300–as I see on Amazon they are selling for $380 since all stores are sold out. Either way just ridiculous. I’ll go ahead and get my daughter the complete wood entertainment center for her room with her new Sanyo Flat Screen TV I got her for Christmas. I am sure she will be much pleased as well as I seeing it in her room for more than a year as she will not outgrow an entertainment center and Tv.

people need to learn how to spell before they try to leave comments for others to read. Don’t be ashamed to look it up if you don’t know
how to spell it. You can also go to Adult classes. People spend their money the way they want for their kids.
