The way people criticise Barbie for being “too sexual” because she has big boobs really bothers me. Like criticise the fact she was based off that other doll, fine, but big boobs don’t make a person, or Barbie, more sexual. That’s a harmful mentality that leads to actual women who have bigger boobs being harassed more and held to much higher dress code standards compared to other women. It’s not like it’s a choice, and if it was I don’t think anyone would want the back pain lol. Your mum’s collection is amazing, thanks for sharing it with us and for not avoiding the more difficult conversations that Barbie can bring up!!!
Totally agree - I “developed early” (I’ve been 5’7” since I was 11 lol) and was always held to a higher standard than other kids my age. So I’ve sort of seen both sides - I had big boobs for a 5th grader, but they’ve stayed about the same size 😂 Aw thank you! 💜💜
Barbies boobs arent even that big anyways people r js disgusting
The message "you can do anything but not everything" is great. I wish more people said it that way. It's more of a complete message.
YESSS WE NEED A PART 2!!!
Just posted it! 💜 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=tfUz2mn6wqN8B-Md
I love that you chose to tell a story with so many interesting facts!
We absolutely need a part 2! 💗
My (very small) childhood Barbie collection actually has a few of the ones you showed - Bathtime Fun Kelly, the blonde Sweetheart Barbie, & Tropical Splash Barbie.
Aw thank you! I think at this point I know basically everything you’d ever want to know about Barbie 😂 Did you keep them in the boxes, or did you actually play with them? The Bathtime Kelly doll looks like one I would have had fun with, I loved anything that involved water 😅
@@MeganWeller I played with all of them. Some a bit too much, because they don’t have their original hair style. 🤦🏻♀😂
barbie definitely did get married in around 2009-11😭i had a set where barbie and ken got married, with chelsea/kelly as the flower girl and staci as a bridesmaid LMAO
I thought I remembered that! But when I looked it up it said they were just “good friends” now or something like that 🤣
As a Barbie collector myself, I really enjoyed seeing your mom's collection! It's crazy how extremely rare a bunch of them are!
Holy crap your mom has the coolest collection I’ve ever seen. You have to do a whole video about all of the family members and decide characters that she has because she has more than most people I know, and I know people who go to the Barbie convention every year and spend thousands of dollars And I still think your mom’s collection of not Barbie is better
Omg there’s a Barbie convention?! I need to look into this, that would be so much fun! Yeah she said she liked to look for ones that were had more unique faces, etc - there are still so many I didn’t get to 😅 My aunt has a ton of “non-Mattel” dolls that are pretty cool too, I’ll have to go through and see about making a part 2 💜
This was so interesting!! 🩷
I was an only child growing up so my mum spoilt me with dolls, and playing with Barbies were everything to me! As I became a bit older I became more into Bratz dolls but they’re not around much anymore. So seeing Barbie dolls still being produced out there today is amazing! So nostalgic!
Thank you! Yeah it was kind of fun learning all the different facts, until I made this video I hadn’t thought about Barbie in forever! 😅💜
I loved this video! I didn’t grow up in the 90’s or with too many Barbie’s but as an older person I find the history interesting. Thanks for the vid Megan!! ❤
Aw thank you! I was born in the late 90s so most of what I remember was from the early 2000s, I always think it’s cool to learn about stuff from before then!
HOLY CRAP She has Tracy and Todd dolls in the box. I have never seen that in my life like I never knew anyone that had it in mind you I know a lot of the collectors like holy crap. Yo, your mom is awesome. I want my son to think that I’m the awesome mom to but He thinks I’m . crazy toy hoarder and maniac craft maker .
I didn’t even know who they were until I made this video 😂 She definitely is - I’ll have to show her all the sweet comments on this video! Haha that seems to be my dad’s opinion too - if it means anything I think you’re awesome! 💜💜
maybe she was a runaway bride!!
go barbie!
respect
Please make a a part 2 this was a fun vide🩷🤍
Aw thanks! 💜
Just posted it! 💜 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
I kept every single Barbie, My scene Doll+ any other doll including my baby dolls. I have the small dolls in a wooden Barbie box, with their dogs, horses, Mermaid babies and a suitcase full of Barbie clothes and shoes. I even have a Cindy doll, and Lots of Barbie's from the 70's and 80's.
I always thought I was so odd for wanting to hold onto my dolls, clothes and accessories until the Barbie movie, when I seen the millions of other people who collect, store, restore, Dolls and Barbie's. Makes my heart warm ❤
I never owned one single Ken, I never even thought about his existence. I had my Barbie married to a bungee jumping Action man. 😂
9:03 THAT OUTFIT IS ADORABLE OML
This was excellent! And yes, a part 2! Thanks ❣️💕
Aw thank you! 💖 I just posted it! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=pHuNeoTM4JyC5zMd
Girl you are adorable and your moms dolls are amazing. Give us a PT 2! 😍
Aw thanks! Hoping to finish the script tonight 💜💜
Wow I love that collection. I have around two hundred Barbie's. I started my collection back in the late 1980s when I was little.
Thank you! Aw that’s awesome! Definitely one of my favorite “Barbie eras” :)
WoW what a collection ! Yess please a part 2 !! ❤
I just posted it! 💜 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
Your mom sounds awesome😄
She is! 💜💜
💗💗 it's so cute that your mom is a big fan of barbieee
Amazing video! Loved all the footage of the dolls. Thank you!
Aw thanks, so glad you liked it! I actually just posted a part 2 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=pHuNeoTM4JyC5zMd
Wow nostalgia overload 😊❤❤❤ i forgot some of these Barbies. It's crazy how I remember certain Barbies!! The sweetheart Barbie i remember her dress and necklace.
This was such a fun video! I loved the idea for your mom, and i'd love a pt 2!
Aw thank you so much! 💜
Here’s part 2! 💕 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
PLEASE SOMEONE BRING ALL OF THESE DOLLS BACK 😩😩😩😩😩😩
I absolutely LOVE the early dolls of the late 50’s-early 60’s. They’re so chic in a simplistic yet effective way. They really epitomized the glamour of that era.
yay it's you!!!
always love to see you
💖
💜💜💜
I was wondering where you were!!! I’m not no one 😂😂😂. Only a couple minutes into this and I already love it. I wouldn’t be against more of these kinds of different video’s ❤
Aw thank you, that means a lot! I was kind of nervous to post this since I know people mainly subscribed for the craft videos, so I’m really glad that you liked it! 💜
That's A HUGE collectionnnnnn 300 DOLLS IS ALOT!!!
Tell me about it 😅😅 to be fair my mom has about 200, and the other 100 are my Aunt’s!
Yes part 2 and I also collect some old barbies lol not all cuz it does get expensive 😅
thank you so much for posting this its so cool to watch !!☺️
Aw thank YOU for watching it!! 💜💜
i appreciate all the effort put into this video!! its so cool
heyy!! i'm a doll collector so this was a really sweet video to come across!!! i was just thinking abt this earlier, honestly the thing about the 2016 reboot that's unfortunate is that the clothes,, there is still very much a lack of separate fashions for the different body types, particularly curvy, and the actual quality of the outfits has had quite a downturn as well?? i mean with the movie which is only naturally gonna get more people interested in the dolls i just really hope mattel maybe kicks it up a notch with the outfit quality, also perhaps bringing back more of the named characters like christie, teresa and midge (and allan ig, lol) but like yeah!! sorry for rambling but great video :)
Nice! Do you mainly collect Barbies? Aw man that’s a bummer - I did notice that it looked like the quality had decreased (I know I commented on it in the original script, but I cut it for time. I can’t believe Kelly/Chelsea has molded on clothes now 🤦🏻♀️) It seems like Mattel was decreasing quality across the board around 2016 - if I remember correctly they also “rebooted” Monster High, and there was the whole American Girl “permapanties” debacle 😬 I loved seeing all the new merch they’ve come out with to promote the movie - if they’re going to stick with trying to appeal to nostalgic adults increasing the quality definitely wouldn’t hurt! Thank you! 💜
I'm a new collector (like, just started) and I found that the best quality outfits for the curvy dolls are on the Looks and Extra lines. Though the Looks lines are pretty simplistic. I like the Extra line a lot more for the amount of details. It reminds me more of the Barbies I played with in childhood, but with more quality. Definately still within the "aimed at kids" ballpark. But I really do appreciate the time put into the designs and overall doll presentation. They feel a lot more substantial, and almost action-figure like rather than the fashion dolls I had in the 80's and 90's.
But there are a lot of doll lines worth collecting right now, like the reboot of MH, Rainbow and Shadow high and a few others. So I feel like if Mattel wants to keep a piece of the market after the movie craze dies down, they'll have to keep the quality up. FWIW, I just find toys these days to not have the kind of quality that toys in my childhood had. So I'm really hesitant to collect anything current. But I was very pleased with the new Barbies I bought, including the ones from the movie (that everyone complains about)
Loved your video! My mother would have loved it--she collected Barbies--she had about 300 as well, but not as extensive as your mom's collection. My daughter had the Pooh Stacy and the bicyclin' Stacy. Thank you for the nostalgia and fun facts. (Your cat is adorable!!!) :)
Ahh this is so fun! I loved my Barbies and Skipper! I was born in 1996 so Bratz took over at some point for me but Barbie is so iconic.
the movie proved to me that barbie is for everyone, not just girls or women. the creativity and designs are out of this world
I have Day to Night Ken and he doesn't just change his tie. He also takes off his vest and puts on a sparkly cumberbund. So he actually does make a bit of an effort 😊
Ok that’s a little better than I thought 😂😂
Some of the Barbie’s in the collection I used to have some of them I wish I could still have them but I didn’t lol
Nice! Did you have any specific favorites?
@@MeganWeller one was the wedding fantasy & some from the skipper collection I liked
Wow! A few of these Barbies I used to have, Becky was my fav one out all my Barbie dolls. Funny I do remember her wheelchair didn't fit to the first floor but the balcony one did, so I made a ramp up to the balcony by cardboard boxes, I was very creative on my dolls when I was a kid 😁
That’s awesome! 💜
Great video and yes, part two please!
My mom used to buy my sister and I only black barbies and she said she usually had to go to Toys r Us and special order them. So maybe some dolls are just more rare or there were only so many in store and then you had to catalogue order them.
💕 Would love a part two and three and four 💗 thanks for sharing this with us! So cool! Such an amazing collection. Also cute kitty 🐈⬛ 😂 💗
Aw thanks! I’m working on the script for part 2, hopefully I can get it up asap! (Haha thanks - Marty decided I needed help apparently 🤣💜)
I just posted part 2! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
I really enjoyed this!! ❤ I found a barbie at work so did a library barbie tiktok!
Thank you! 💜 Aw that’s great, I’ll have to look for that one! It’s been a minute since I’ve been on TikTok, I’ve been so busy looking up Barbie’s 😂😂
Cute Pebbles & BamBam! Still have my 1st 1963 bubble cut Barbie in grt cond Watched the tv show, Julia, as a kid. So pretty & that Barbie is worth something, if in good cond.
This is so awesome!!!
Aw thanks! 💜 I actually just posted part 2 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=pHuNeoTM4JyC5zMd
Love this video! Please do a Part 2.
do the part 2!! this vid was soo amazing
Aw thanks - just posted it! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
My friend next door growing up had growing up skipper. Lol her mom at the time thought it was better cause she had no boobs. Me, my mom, my friend’s mom and her were porch visiting. So my friend runs in to her house and brings out the doll to show her mom that the doll grew boobs 🤣 and the reaction was priceless! 😂
Omg that’s too funny 😂 I mean we all get them eventually! 🤣
Hi Megan, have various dolls from my childhood, from about 1967. Barbie and Stacie with their eyelashes. Barbie very arched feet and Stacie slightly lower. Also younger sister Skipper with flat feet. Francie (cousin) and two later Barbies. The shoes accessories and wigs were fabulous. Added to collection then in my daughters time years around 2002. While it was my passion, and I decorated a full beautiful house for her.. unfortunately was not her passion whatsoever.
Oh yes and a very plastic Ken with all the moving joints was given to my son around 90's. With all the Ken's action gear. He kept them company in a box for many years now.
A child therapist is buying it all, and while their is my mother's hand sewing and knit skills and great grandmother crochet work, my heart must be happy that its going to a very useful purpose. ❤
This was such a great video!!! 90’s baby here❤ First time watching your channel and love it!! I learned so much and the collection from your mom and aunt are amazing!!!
Thank you so much! I was born in 97, so I guess that makes me a 90s baby too (not that I remember much 😂) I’m so glad you liked it, yeah they definitely are!
@@MeganWeller 😂🤣😂🤣I’m not one to talk I’m 1996🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣lol
Maybe we are 2000’s lol idk 🤷♀️
Yes, we need more of your mom’s totally awesome collection❤❤❤❤❤❤ oh, and you too of course by the way, feel better, but if you don’t mind you need to get your fans what they want more of your mom! Lol. J/k
I’d love to get her to do a video if she’s comfortable! She’s been traveling a lot so it can be hard to track her down, but I can ask her! 💜
you are livin the dream girl!
It took me to adulthood to realise I can love both Barbie and Bratz for different reasons. Barbie is so wonderfully diverse now, though I don't know if there's a Barbie who wears glasses, and there certainly doesn’t seem to be an autistic Barbie! But yeah, I love dolls. I'd be interested to see a part 2 to this video. Maybe you could talk about the Barbie movies. My favourite was always Barbie As Rapunzel.
It’s great to see how diverse the brand has become! I think I had a teacher Barbie that came with glasses - I know I found a few pairs when going through the dolls I played with as a kid!
There’s definitely lots of Barbie’s with glasses and they recently released a Barbie with Down syndrome! So they are definitely becoming more diverse by the day
Though Im not sure how exactly one would make an autistic barbie?? since there’s no specific physical feature or anything for someone with autism. But maybe they could make a new character in the Barbie-verse with autism for representation someday 😊
Also I can tell you that Monster high has an autistic character named Twyla who’s really cool 💜
How would you even make an autistic Barbie? It’s not like people with autism have a physical feature that says to the world “hey! I have autism!”….🥴
@@FerrariCarr I know, but I was thinking along the lines of the down's syndrome doll, because they made her outfit with a lot of symbols and things. So for example, the doll could have clothing on that has a rainbow infinity symbol, which is the better symbol that represents the autistic spectrum (no puzzle pieces!). Or just canonically have an autistic Barbie character. If you wanted to though, any Barbie doll could be autistic, I get your point.
3:11 im 34 and i might just have became an adult, words of wisdom haha
💜 Wow! I love the top model barbies 💜
I ALREADY LOVE YOUR MOM FROM SEEING ALL THOSE DOLLS AHHHHH
MY MOM WASN’T ALLOWED TO HAVE BARBIES AS A KID SO I FIND IT ADORABLE TO SEE A MOM WHO LOVES BARBIES EEE
just started watching ur video... the native american barbie in the background is so beautiful
Some beautiful dolls. Thanks for sharing. From a UK collector :)
That was an awesome video😀. Please make a part 2
Thank you! 💜
Just posted part 2! 💕 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
I just got back from the movie so seeing this is great. Would love a part two.
The movie was so good, wasn’t it?! I did not expect that from a Barbie movie but I loved it lol - I’ll see what I can do about part 2! 💜
I just posted it! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
L❤ved the video! Thank you for the fun.
Omg Western Barbie was my very first Barbie.... looking for more!
The reason they are all called barby is so that each girl or boy feels that they have an original barbie that looks like them
Meghan is one of my favourite I subscribed her for no reason I mean why not ?
Great video! I used to be a collector and still have some in storage. :)
which era did you collect?
That’s awesome! My mom had most of these in the garage, but she said she wants to display some again!
Timeless 😍
This was a great and fun video.
As a Barbie collector myself, I’m so happy that all the facts/research in the vid is accurate!
Good job on this video I enjoyed it.
Thank you! 💜
Speaking of barbie who's excited for the barbie movie tommorrow
🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
I was never upset that I wasn't skinny like barbie growing up. I was like duh shes a doll I shouldn't look like her... same with the disney princesses that people complain about. Kid's brains don't work like that. They care more about hair and skin color. I honestly think that is just something that adults (and older teens) project on their younger selves without stopping to ask themselves if they really cared as a kid or if they would have asked for curvy dolls in the first place
Part 2 🎉 definitely subscribing
Working on it! 💜
Just posted it! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=pHuNeoTM4JyC5zMd
please do a part two!!
I posted it Friday! 💜 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
Your kitties are getting big
Yeah they are! I think Marty is like 10 pounds now, and Milly is about 12 (they look about the same but she’s always been a little more solid than him 😅)
I thoroughly enjoyed this video lol
Aw thanks! 💜
I’ve become interested in Barbie collecting recently and I’ve frantically been trying to find the Barbie’s that I now know are collectors items and their accessories. And I have some Barbie’s and clothing from my mom when she was young. And the angel face Barbie’s dress has to be the same dress I had for my Barbie’s. I’m worried I threw it away since I was like 9 and it was ripped and compared to the newer Barbie clothes it wasn’t as cool. But I know that’s the same exact dress it has to be!
Edit: OH I remember now that dress wasn’t mine it was in my grandmas Barbie doll collection. I completely forgot she had Barbie dolls. Oh gosh I hope she still has them I would love to look at them. As you were looking through your moms Barbies I recognized a lot of the clothing from my grandmas house.
We need part 2!
Just posted it! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs
Okay...so I pulled out my Barbie's yesterday and have three Jazzies. Thanks for the info because I had no idea who she was! 😂
Megan pls make more of diy jewellery videos.
Sitting outside the Barbie movie earlier watching your video! Pleaseeee do a part 2!
Omg that’s so exciting - I thought it didn’t come out until tomorrow! Hope you love it, I can’t wait to go see it! 💜💜

Very thankful your share❤
Can you please do a part two part really liked it.❤
Aw thank you! I’ll see what I can do :)
“It’s a great time to be a girl, Barbie!” 🩷💞🩰🎀🌸🌺🛼
Part two😍😍😍
Love Barbie since the 90's but wish a little more care was put into acessories like where is the Barbie brush that most used to come with.
I haven’t bought Barbie’s in a very long time, but I have heard that the quality has decreased 😢 I know Mattel lowered the quality on lots of their products around 2016 when the company was facing some financial issues. Hopefully the success of the movie shows them that consumers appreciate those details! 💜
This was a neat and interesting video, and I would love to see a part 2.
I hope your hand will heal soon.
Thank you so much! It’s been getting better, so hopefully it doesn’t give me too much trouble! 💜
You're welcome. *nods* Hopefully! 🤞
I just posted part 2! 💜 ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=1PXbX7bYg0jccyWs

Yes please girlfriend would like to see a part 2
I posted it Friday! ruclips.net/video/WrQFwOGU1kA/видео.htmlsi=pHuNeoTM4JyC5zMd
So sorry about your hand :( hope it gets better soon !
Thank you! 💜
There needs to be some sort of chart to keep track of Barbie’s family tree and names and friends lol
I’m sure someone out there has made one! I bet there are a ton that I missed 😅💜
Your so pretty
Aw thank you, that means a lot! 💜💜
I’m not sure if Barbie got married either but when I was little for my birthday, I got this Barbie that said just married Barbie and it was Barbie and Ken and Ken had a tuxedo and Barbie had a wedding dress it came with like a sash it said, just married and a bouquet but I’m not sure not sure
I've started collecting Silkstone Barbies in 2001 and stopped earlier this year. I have 40 of them. I've been collecting other fashion dolls during that time, hence the very few Silkstones. I'm slowing down.
The 1982 India Barbie is one of the most stunning Barbies. I remember her so well.
Some of the newer versions of Midge had a wedding ring as well
Part 2 please! ❤❤
