Found my second Allan woo. I don't think I've ever taken a photo of them together.

Barbie Mini Bs were a collectible line of Peek-a-boo Petites in the style of Barbie. One of these releases was a special edition giftset of Time Capsule Barbies: miniature versions of Barbies from throughout the years. These are absolutely charming and they fill me with delight.

In chronological order I believe these are as follows: my apologies if I am mistaken about any of these, but if so, please correct me!

1959: Barbie (debut)

1962: Brunette Bubblecut Barbie

1967: Twist 'n Turn Barbie

1971: Malibu Barbie

1977: Superstar Barbie

1986: Barbie and the Rockers Barbie

I think these are really cute but I think it would have been fun to have a little CEO Barbie as well! Barbie is so well known now for her careers I think that would have been a cool inclusion.

When vintage Barbie clothes have real sewn pockets those are for their doll-scale Virginia Slims

Barbies of the BPCL: 1960s Bubblecut Doll

In 1961, Mattel released a Barbie doll with a bubblecut hairstyle that replaced her original ponytail. She is otherwise identical to her predecessors and uses the original 1958 face mold. It's unclear to us whether this doll was released in 1961 or 1962.

1962 After Five - Silkstone Repro collection

1961 Brownette Bubblecut - Silkstone repro collection

I miss dressed Silkstone repros 😞

My latest Goodwill haul is Barbie outfits rather than dolls. The outfits are from a few different eras.

First, my blonde Bubblecut looks amazing in this outfit (I made the Barbie safe earrings, but will eventually make another pair since these are a bit bit - all the other jewelry is vintage Barbie):

I’ve never seen any of the Little Theater outfits in person before so I had no idea they were such good quality. Here’s my swirl ponytail Barbie in the Guinevere outfit, with the little storybook:

And I especially love finding Francie fashions, the ones below are modeled by my two Francies and one of my Twiggy dolls:

And finally, these palazzo pants are spectacularly 70s:

I did find some 80s outfits too but I’m saving them for when I post pics of the lot of 80s dolls I got recently.

When Bubblecut already reminds you of a grandmother, and then you find an outfit that gives her church lady vibes 😅

hiya! I saw you wanted some Barbie interactions - do you mean the dolls, the media, or the recent film? because I'm super curious about your opinions on any and all of those!

I'm always a fan of the holiday Barbies line - do you have a favourite?

Or a favourite Barbie film? HAVE YOU PLAYED ANY OF THE PC GAMES??

And what did you think of the Barbie movie?

sjdhsksh I'm so curious! :D

I collect barbies and love the movie so much we literally went out to get a dvd of it today since it released, and i have both of the main dolls that are modeled off of it and plan on getting the jumpsuit and skater ones at least but I do eventually want all of them. My favorites have to be my 1963 Blonde Bubblecut and 1963 Midge doll, which are both authentic though I do need to do quite a lot of restoration on them as said here.

My favorite's definitely the then and now swimsuit which I also have because it has such 2000s energy and I actually want to wear it so that's also something that I kind of plan on doing, I don't sew but maybe could find something similar and detail it or whatever,

I haven't watched any animated movies yet though its another i plan on doing and i also want to play the games but it's never really something i was able to do when i was little so i'd have to do it now

also not only her

I have quite a few I Love Lucy ones too which were originally made in the nineties and a Franklin Mint Diana with most of the clothes (thanks to mom who had it when she was younger and gave it to me since I'm into dolls) There's not too many of the Lucy ones and they aren't that much, so I do want to get all of then eventually as well and have around three now plus one I plan on fixing up a little and selling, though with her all I need to do it clean her and fix her hair so it's not that big of a job

Reproduction: Bubblecut Brownette - 2022

[barbielore]

Are there any dolls of Barbie’s parents or her aunt Millicent?

To my knowledge, no!

If you search for Aunt Millicent Barbie, you do get some hits, because of the stop-motion series Sam and Mickey. I haven't watched any Sam and Mickey content so I hope I am correct in identifying which Barbie is which, but I believe in Sam and Mickey Aunt Millicent is portrayed by a bubblecut Barbie repro.

(This is what's on the Wiki page anyway?)

The only older characters portrayed in the Barbie line-up as dolls, though, aren't actually related to Barbie. They're the grandparents from the Happy Family Neighbourhood line - i.e. Midge and/or Alan's parents.

They got a few releases in various forms, including with a kitchen playset.

Other than that, there are depictions of Barbie where she is in the guise of a celebrity who is older than she typically is, but none of her family.

Although - again, this is only to my knowledge. I may have missed one!
