    >Mattel missed something here. The secret cipher could have been a big selling point for their target audience.

    While I agree a spy keyboard would appeal to all children, tacking the Barbie brand on it feels strange.

    Imagine a box saying "Barbie Keyboard; Now with 4 unique cyphers!" The two have nothing to do with each other, unless there is a Barbie spy line I'm unaware of... searching...

    Yep there is a "Barbie Spy Squad" movie released 2016. Of course.

    That sounds like my 4 year old, right down to the finger song she can sing along with in like 5 languages now lol. Those youtube videos of people with toys are nuts, some of them are like a modern form of story telling and really well made.

    Some shows I like of hers:

    - Miles from Tomorrowland, a family adventuring in space with bits of science and physics thrown in

    - Lost in Oz, it's decades later and Dorothy's daughter is into making gadgets and stuff, ends up in Oz. There's only 1 episode now but it's about to be a whole series on Amazon

    - Wishenpoof, another Amazon title , little girl can make wishes come true with magic but she's constantly discovering she doesn't need magic to solve problems

    - Barbie Spy Squad, it's decent even though all the other Barbie stuff I've seen is pretty fucked-up.
