The appeal of Galadriel is supposed to be so etherial and spiritual, while Barbie's massive powers stem largely from her being overdeveloped and small enough to fit in the hip-pocket -- a perfect material girl.
However, they are the Lasting Beauties, the archetypes, and have that semireal sexy/unapproachable quality.
God knows that if Galadriel has ever been portrayed, it was as a super femme enchantress. Just. Like. Barbie.
