Barbie lace and dress Dancing Doll

This is a box set from the Colorforms company, it is a 'busy fingers activity toy' as stated on the box.  It features Ballerina Barbie with lace on costumes, which means the clothing is tied onto the doll through the holes in the outfits with a string.  The doll is jointed, with a plastic bit that can be seen in the second photo. Not sure if it complete but the box says seven sets of clothing and there are seven outfits and twelve hats.  The date on the box and doll is 1975.
