Collectors were robbed of a great doll for the Twist N' Turn Barbie. The prototype used the Steffie face, had a fringe, and the t-shirt dress was sheer over another dress 😭

Mattel aren't making the line look good, when the new fashions are like the 'Wish' version of the originals! I can see the cheapness of the fabric through the screen! xo

This is the “Go Girl Give Us Nothing” from toys industry

When they were presented side by side, i feel so sad for Barbie today 🥺🥺🥺

I was born March 1959, too. Me and Barbie still rocking it !

Even Rainbow High did a better job paying homage to Super Star Barbie with Priscilla than Mattel did with this fashionista

These 65th Anniversary Fashionista Dolls doesn't feel homages. They're more like budget dolls that just references Barbie's past for old time sake. The quality in Barbies today is very disappointing. Also wondering if you're planning do a doll history video about Kira (Barbie's first asian friend) since you did Christie. I love Kira's face mold she reminds me one of my aunts.

What i really love about that Draculaura doll is that she's a collector doll that isn't in a mermaid dress for once

I agree, the clothes are just not what they were when i was a kid. I was telling a coworker about the Barbie Fashion Avenue line from the 90s. It was so chic! looked right out of vogue!

[patricerogers]

In total agreement regarding the fashionista line and the cheep tee dresses! Looking forward to actually finding the new murmaid dolls!

I am older than Barbie, so i remember her early days. As a doll she was ok, but the clothes was the star, with real zippers, buttons, snaps, no plastic except for shoes. Metal jewelry rather than plastic. I abhor these new Barbies that are half plastic. Velcro is ok. But only printed details on cheap material is so dissapointing. I can make better clothes out of socks and scraps. Sigh.

Hi Joey I agree there are some nice fashionista

[deanmartin]

Mum on holiday shoes! Love it!
With you on slogan T-shirt’s!

I don’t know….. Fashion Fever line of dolls were way more “fashionable”…. Same with the Top Model line which was available at mass retail!

[BlakeGildaphish]

"They were old MAIDEN-type of shoes?" 😆

[BrittnyShrub]

I wonder what the original designs for the fashionista outfits were. I can't imagine that they were that simplistic. Eta: I want 1, 2, 3, 5. Love the tribute Teresa doll.

The twist n turn insp one was originally gonna have bangs and use the steffi sculpt

Fantastic! I'm looking forward to the 60th anniversary of Allan.

Glad you mentioned Mh dolls I asked my mother for my first monster high doll and and my first articulated ken doll from the movie kinda reminds me of the old ken doll from the 80s/90s talking about his face sculpt

[perrilewis]

A better idea would remake the old outfits but in different sizes. Like a curvy body barbie in the Rockstar barbie outfit would be so good
