These 70s and 80s reproduction dolls make me so nostalgic for my childhood Barbies. PJ also is in such good hands with stylist mini Arjen!
🥹🩷🙏🏻 haha awe! Thanks dear!
I love P.J. with the Steffie face, she is a gorgeous girl and I loved her beach look!!! 💗💗💗
🥹🩷🙏🏻 Such a cutie and So happy she FINALLY ARRIVED!
Picture this…..It’s 1979ish in the USA and 10 year old Janet’s Planet is perusing the ever famous Toys R Us toy store. Naturally, I’m waltzing down the aisle of all the bright pink boxes that seem to go up to the ceiling and drooling over all the superstar dolls! Good times!!!!!!!!!!!!🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
I think PJ stands for Priscilla Josephine or Priscilla Jo!!!
AHHH 😌🩷 loving the ‘sophia’ storytelling and you had me with ya down those iconic aisles 🙌🏻🩷⭐️
Hey, I just wanted to pop in and say that Mattel has said that PJ doesn't stand for anything, that's just her name 😊

I had the 70s blonde P.J. She was my favorite. Hope they bring her back in blonde again ❤❤❤❤❤
Love the Blonde PJ tooo 😌
She is so sweet and beautiful 🎀💗💙
She is isn’t she 😌🩷 Love the nostalgia and ofcourse the Steffie face 🥹🙏🏻
Fabulous so glad you got Peanut Jelly 😂. Im just kidding. She's lovely✌ 😊✌
whahha 😆😆😆
I had P.J.! She was my first "older" Barbie.
🥹🩷 awe!
i just love sneaking peaks of your perfectly polished doll room !!!!! pj is a cutie ! this vid is awesome !
🥹🩷✌🏻
Penelope Jean is actually cute!
i never thought of what PJ might stand for, but Penelope Jean definitely works for me.
🩷😌🩷
My gosh she's stunning in that yellow gown. Just like the diva she is!! 💛✨
🥹🩷🙌🏻
My sister used to have P.J.! She had asked my parents why there were full stops between the letters and they explained to her that it’s her initials. And since then my sister called her Petra Johnson 😊
whaha!! 😆🩷 Petra Johnson!!! Ok I just laughed at this so hard! so random and actually kinda scandinavian 🩵❄️🥹
When I first saw P.J., she gave me the beauty queen aura. I am very glad that she is put into the superstar gown and has a crown on her head. She looks like a Miss Universe from the 70s!
😌🩷⭐️ Totally!
Oh Arjen, this video is simply amazing! I lovelovelove the story!
🥹🩷🙏🏻
I have the originals of Fashion Photo P.J., Christie and Barbie, and all three of those original dolls have rather sparsely rooted hair compared to what we're used to nowadays. It's also not super long, if you pull the curl straight, the hair barely reaches the doll's waist. The original Fashion Photo P.J. doll was the first time that the P.J. character was offered as a brunette, but she was also brunette in 1984 with Sweet Roses P.J. Two other P.J. dolls had a mix of blonde and brunette hair, 1983 Dream Date P.J. and 1984 Sun Gold Malibu P.J. The Whitney character came several years after the last appearance of P.J. in 1984, the first was 1987 Jewel Secrets Whitney. The following year we got Perfume Pretty Whitney and Nurse Whitney, and in 1989 we got Style Magic Whitney (who really needs to be reproduced, she is ICONIC).
I don't have this repro doll (yet) but I do have several examples of the original doll, and from what I can tell the bodysuit, pants, and slim skirt all look like they're made from textiles that are similar to the originals, it's only the sheer tricot overskirt that looks a bit off to me. The original skirt had a somewhat matte sheen to the fabric, whereas this repro skirt looks a bit shiny. The colors also look a bit darker than the original, but I can't really tell without having the repro in hand.
If you've never had a vintage original Fashion Photo doll, the bodies are super weird and kind of hard to work with. The doll was designed to be used with the Fashion Photo posing stand, and that mechanism works more or less as advertised, but it's really kind of jerky and not very graceful. They must have modified the mechanism for the TV commercial, or did some other kind of trickery to stabilize the doll on the base. The key feature of the doll's body construction is that the hip joint is connected inside to the neck joint, so that when the hips move, the head moves. This is similar to the 1971 Walk Lively Barbie feature, and is probably a similar internal mechanism. I actually had Fashion Photo Barbie as a child and I always thought she was funny because if you tried to pose her in a seated position, her head would spin around like Linda Blair in _The Exorcist._ 😆
Thanks for the PJ history! I was thinking PJ must be a variety of Whitney, or rather Whitney evolved from PJ
whaha yikes! 🩷 But thank you so much for the added info! So interesting to read and love all these fun facts!
You are so lucky to have her. Congratulations. And yes, we do need more reproduction dolls. Starting with Beauty Secrets 1979. And the1995 Jewelled hair Mermaid Barbies.
Oh gosh Yes!!! 🙌🏻🩷⭐️
Hi, Arjen! Long time viewer, 1st time posting here. My sister had a PJ back in the day, she decided PJ stood for Pamela Jane. Love your channel, stay awesome!
Oh wow! 🩷👏🏻 Thanks for the support darling! Pamela Jane also sounds so fitting! ⭐️
Peggy June!!! 😄
😆🩷
She is so adorable! ❤❤❤❤
🥹🙏🏻🩷
Loved her in the yellow gown!
💛💛💛
Love the bathing suit makeover especially the bracelet and anklet. She just needs more eye makeup 😅
😜🩷
I’d be in doll heaven at your place!!!!❤️❤️❤️
🥹🩷🙏🏻
You’re spoiling us with all of these wonderful videos ❤ thank you ❤
🥹🩷🙏🏻
I love the yellow dress I had the same dress in pink❤️❤️❤️
😌🩷
She is so cute. I have the original so I passed on this one. I also have the Christy and Barbie. They are cute dolls. She was my favorite. I love the greens and blues.💚💙💚
Oh wow, ALL originals?! 🥹🩷
@@Barbination Yes but in 1978 I was in middle school and still crazy about my Barbies. I never got rid of them. I’m old lol. 😀I don’t think I still have the cameras.
I never had a P.J. and, if I can't get an original, I will get this one! 😊
😍❤️✨
This is such a good review! I'm glad Mattel is doing more reproductions like this, all the vintage fashions are sooo cute. Also, I love all the little dress-up montage bits at the end of your videos; the set is really adorable!
🥹🩷🙏🏻 Thank you so much sweetie!
I like your Videos. Thanks.
🥹🙏🏻❤️
Love that robe from the Extra Fly line! So fun when you throw in fashion pieces from previous doll review/makeovers. Oh, and Happy Belated Birthday!
🥹🩷🙏🏻 Thank you darling! 🥳
Saw Pj on holiday and had to buy her. Beautiful Doll. I wish Mattel would re-release more of the superstar range. Love the makeover you gave her at the end.
🎀🙏🏻🎀 More repro’s please mattel! 🙏🏻
Your hoodie and hat match so well with the Brunette supreme, Arjen. A pastel pair made in heaven 💙💚🩵
Thank you dear! 🩷🙌🏻
Haha, that was nice! :)
Wouldn’t it be cool to have the original wardrobes of that time? Mint in box, of course! 😊
I think P.J would rock some of the 70s best buy fashions as well.
Oh absolutely!! The fashion, the quality, the fun colors! ah! 😌 just imagine
She's so adorable. I have yet to get any of the repro dolls but she's definitely one I'd love to have. 😍
🩷🩷🩷
I have this repro and I love her, my only peeve is the sheer skirt is so stiff and doesn’t lay as nicely as the original did. The sheer material on the original is super soft.
Oohh yeah that’s some really nice material, too bad the skirt is dropped in quality now 🥲
i feel like your facts are on point, Arjen.
Phew! 😮💨 haha Thanks Blake! 🩷✌🏻
I think she should officially named Penelope Jeane (or Jane), this suits her so much!
RIGHT! 😍🩷✌🏻
I have a PJ from 1978, she was in rough condition when I got her. Her neck peg was broken,her hair was dirty and stunk. But I wasn’t going to complain, I got her with about 30 other Vintage Barbie’s with clothes for $20 including a Stacey doll from 1965 and a Francie doll 1966 both patent pending in beautiful condition. I was shocked.
Oh wow! $20 ?!?! THAT IS AMAZING!! 😭🩷😭🩷 With all the epic finds in that lot! You’re so lucky! That must have felt like Christmas ⭐️😂
I've been waiting years for a Fashion Photo PJ repro, I never thought Mattel would actually do it. She is beautiful but mine came with wonky eyes. Not too thrilled about that. She absolutely reminds me of Whitney from the 80s, except Whitney always had blue eyes I believe. PJ having brown eyes makes her a bit more unique (you rarely saw brown eyes on caucasian Barbies back in the day).
Awe man really?! i’m so sorry, that’s not fun. I would actually loooove a repro Whitney 🩵 Especially a 90s hairplay girl
@@Barbination Jewel Secrets Whitney?
Love it 🎉

always enjoyable content. love the redress 💞💞

Peggy Jean or PollyJo, ,are two ideas I had for P.J. I bought the original doll in 1978. I adored her, I was a Junior in H.S, that is the 11th grade in USA. I was not supposed to still 'play with ' dolls. But I was working at a job, and bought her anyway: I mean if I was a boy and collected trains, no one would have said a word! I took her out of the box, that camera was terrible and the stand did not work very long. I did enjoy the variety of outfits and looks you could get with the extra clothing. Mattel used to do that very thing while /Ruth was still head of Mattel. They had a whole section of clothing you could buy as separate pieces, and use to mix and match to other clothes. The doll is still beautiful and a valued part of my vast collection. I enjoy your show, and admire many of your redone hairstyles. I don't always like your new choice of outfits, but we all have varied tastes. Thank you for your podcast, if that is what this is called.
Thanks darling! 🥹🩷
PJ: pictures Journey 😂
😆
Steffie face mold have always be my favorite since I got Busy Steffie as a child and Malibu P.J hav them still😊❤❤💘
🥹🩷 Waoo! Steffie is just the cutest!
OMG I wish this doll would not have been so limited edition 😭. I didn't get her and I thought she would be on Amazon but she was only sold on the Mattel website. The doll of my childhood dreams!! 😫💔. Anyway I really enjoyed your video Arjen and the Superstar outfit was gorgeous on her!! 👌. Thank you!!
Ooohhh man that sucks! 😮💨, I hope she will make her way to your collection eventually 🙏🏻🩷
I loved PJ as kid in the 1980s. Any Barbie with a Stefie facemold was (and is) always my favorite classic face. As for my take on her initials; so my aunt's name is Pamela, so i would think of it as Pamela Jane, or Pamela Jo (because my middle name is Jo). But Penelope is such a cute name in general. We used to watch the old Hanna Barbara cartoon the Misadventures of Penelope Pitstop, so when someone says the name Penelope, that is who i think of.
haha 😁🩷 Oh right! I remember binge watching wacky races when I was a kid! LOVED her!
Polly Jean is my guess x
😄🩷
I think Pepper Jones would be a cute extension of P.J.
Totally! 😍🩷
I got two of her as well. I also have two of the reproduction Super Star Christie. And I have gotten two of the Barbie the Movie dolls.
🙌🏻🩷 And I support that haha!
I managed to get her for Christmas 2023, from Meyer
Only wish I bought two.
🙈🙈🙈
Hi 👋 I hope you are doing well and that everything is going well for you and that you're having a happy week and a happy Tuesday 😌😊. I also hope you enjoy this doll 🎎🪆.
🥹🩷✌🏻 Thank you darling! Hoping you have lovely week yourself!
Gostei da Barbie com a saia brasileira! 🇧🇷
😄🩷🙌🏻
This is one of my favorite Barbies of all time. I was lucky enough to get the original about 20 years ago at a great price. It looks like they got the clothes and jewelry pretty close to the original. I went to the site to buy her and they were already sold out sadly. Hoping I can get her somehow. And I absolutely hate those straddle doll stands.
Oh wow! Well even though this repro is lovely, nothing can beat the original ofcourse 🙌🏻🩷
I know what you mean about getting two! I just ordered a Mariah Carey Barbie to keep in the box because I know someone is going to gift me another for Christmas, so I’m just going to open that one💕💕💕
😌🩷🎄 oohhh that’s so sweet! ENJOY my dear! a lot of people missed out on her 😅🙈 so you’re a lucky gal!
❤
I was planning on skipping this one. Tho I love the Steffi face, I don't like the hairdo. She just didn't seem old enough to warrant a repro. However, I didn't know about the additional fashions fixing the hair didn't seem problematic and looks fantastic. So now I guess I will need to get one.
🩷✌🏻
The "possible pictures" actually came with the original. You put them into the back of the camera. Then once you took the picture, you turned a wheel on the back of the camera to have the "picture" come out of the camera.
so cute! 🥰🩷
I think she suit Pia Jarnes
🤔😄 whaha !
Porsche Jane. That's my cousin's name and they call her PJ lol
hahha awe cool! 🩷✌🏻
I am so sorry that I missed this reproduction Barbie doll 😭
🥲🩷
She needs to be reintroduced into the barbie world now the ugly duckling turned beautiful im glad shes getting this resurgence
❤️❤️❤️
PJ 😍 how are you PJ? 🤭
😆
Penelope Juniper! It makes sense since Barbie’s full name name is Barbra Millicent! 😂 they have cute nicknames because their mom’s gave them such long traditional names .
whaha 😆🩷 RIGHT !!
Love this doll!!! I just saw her the other day on eBay and I was NOT tempted based on the price.
Arjen I’d love to hear your thoughts on Fashion Fever dolls, I’m starting to think about getting one for my daughter but they are so expensive 😭 The fashion packs are amazing but also spendy. I know they are not your style per se but if you have any FF dolls or any fashions I’d love to see them!
Well many Fashion Fever actually do have super cute outfits and pastel colors! Also love the Y2K make-up on them! But they’re so pricey 🥲 especially over here 🙈
I wish they made hwr hair longer like the photos art ❤ on the box 😢
🥲🩷 That would be so perfect indeed 🥹
How about Patricia Jane? 🤔 I knew Mini Arjen would work his magic and turn her into a fashionista with that yellow gown. I have to be honest though. While I liked her wardrobe pieces, especially the over skirt, the doll didn’t appeal to me like other friends of Barbie. Maybe it’s just me but she lacks “personality”. Anyway, I always enjoy your videos and await the next one with bated breath. 🩷🌹🩷
Awe Thanks dear! 🥹🩷 You’re always too good to me 😌 Patricia Jane sounds like a decent american name haha which would fit her perfectly! 😆🩷
Oh my goodness I have a blonde sort of version of her! She has pink clothes and a stand that moves so she can pose. She also has the photos and a camera. Of course I opened the box and botched all the stuff so I could use the stuff I wanted 😬🫠. I’m still a little girl trapped in a 46 y old body. I am never going v to grow up if I can’t open and play with my Barbies. 🤷🏼♀️🩷🤓
Oooh so you have the actual 🎀 BARBIE 🎀 from this doll line! that’s amazing! And you’re never too old to do anything in life. It’s one you gotta live in happiness and Barbie is simply just a part of that ☺️🙌🏻⭐️
@@Barbination thank You so much. You are so sweet to always being on top of replying back 🫶🏻. I truly appreciate that. Today is my 19th wedding anniversary and I have to 1. Finish my 9 year old daughter’s 1:6 scale horse tack room that I’m giving her for Christmas 😬. 2. Roll a million tiny Swedish meatballs with my daughters which takes a whole day basically. 3. Make my own Glögg from scratch (it’s like the Swedish version of mulled wine) and the cool thing about living in CA is that I can pick the oranges needed right off of the tree in our back yard 🤗 so it’s all organic. 4. Wrap every single present and make sure that they are evenly dispersed so that none of my daughters feel like they did not get as many gifts as the others 🤯😱🫣 🎀. They all like different things so I can’t just buy them the same gifts 🤷🏼♀️ #momofgirls 🤣🩷. Tomorrow is Christmas 🎄 here in Silicon Valley, California so as long as I’m done by then I am good 👍.
I wish You a glorious Christmas with Your loved ones and that You get many Barbies/accessories and pastel colored gifts 💝 under the 🌲. Oh my gosh! I have to somehow show You my photos from when We went to Maui and met my girls’ mermaid 🧜♀️ instructor named AQUA (for real, that’s her name!). She had a jeep painted mint green/aqua and pink like a Barbie jeep. She looks just like a Barbie too and teaches mermaid swimming classes (which all my girls have perfected BTW 🤗) with mermaid tails. You totally need to go to Maui and meet Aqua!!! I was so blown away that there actually were other adults like me IRL 🥹🩵💗❣️
God Jul from my family to Yours!
The blonde PJ was prettier 🎉
👀😄🩷
I bet some Smart Azz Barbiestan named her Plain Jane...so P.J. 😂
BWAHAHAHA 😆🩷 I just almost peed my pants from laughing 5 min 😂😂

What are you gonna open up Barbies behind you
whaha! 😆🙈
My dolls always float on those stands. Not a fan of those.
Ugh! I don’t understand, like didn’t they test these out themselves and notice this?! 🤦🏼♂️
Her face is not like it was in 78.
They will never be able to reproduce the iconic and detailed faces they did back in the day 🥹
You made her look better. Her hairdo was awful.
😆🩷
Pj was always a brunette they only changed it to blonde due to Malibu!
Aaaahhhhh ! ✌🏻 here I am thinking she’s a natural blonde haha 🤦🏼♂️
Live Action P.J and Talking P.J were blonde too.
