- Today I go over the younger siblings of Barbie from their beginnings in the sixties and how they developed over time. #barbie #toycollection #vintagetoys #toycollector #doll #barbiedolls
Fun video! I recently visited a friend I grew up with who was only allowed to have Skipper. She pulled "Skipper" out of storage and I had to inform her that who she has is actually Scooter! 😆 My theory is that the Scooter (so ugly she's cute in my opinion!) headmold is a shrunken down version of another Mattel doll of the time - Charmin' Chatty. Google her and you'll see what I mean. I couldn't have any Barbies growing up ("Boys don't play with dolls!") but when I moved out on my own I realized that I was paying my bills and I could have whatever I wanted! 40 years later my collection is still growing.... 🤩
Thanks! Nice clock on the charmin chatty doll! Definitely a similar sculpt. And yeah, I wasn’t allowed to have Barbies as a kid either, but look at me now. lol ❤️❤️
You really know your stuff, and your collection is impressive! New sub and loving your content
Much appreciated!
Hi! Nice presentation. My sister's first "Barbie" was the Tuti doll. I always enjoyed looking at these Barbie's especially since they resembled little humans with all the accessories. Anyway thanks slot you're fun.
My pleasure! Thanks for tunin in!❤️
Thanks for the contact back! Really cool. Now, I think you are probably a groovy 1970's youngster. Eh?? It's great to find a dude who's interested in the little humans i.e. dolls!!👫💃🕺. I always liked them. Alas, in my younger days & generation circa, early 1960's it was ordinarily frowned upon for the boy to play with dolls! Drats! And Barbie, well she was rated X taboo!!! Absolutely no touching this doll. But, nevertheless she & her world were fascinating & crazy in the smashing groovy kind of way!!!! Well. Good Man, that's it from me. I'd enjoy a reply but I know you're busy. This is brainless fun anyway. Thank you.
I’m a Skipper collector from 1964 all the way to today, but the oldest are my favorites! Great video!
Awesome, thanks! 60s skipper is so chic ❤️❤️
Thank you for these videos. I’m a new doll collector, and you’ve taught me so much. I got my first bubble cut Barbie last week, thanks to your informative content. This is so cool! ❤
Congrats on the new babe! And thank you! I’m happy to hear it!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love it never seen a man like you with dolls! 😍🥰you're amazing! As your question I always played with barbie and Ken as the parents to all the little kids
Thank you so much!! Yeah I figured a lot of people would play with them like parents and kids. Kinda goes back to he-man and every kid’s desire to ‘have the power,’ like your parents did at the time. haha
Very nice dolls .
Thank you 🤗
I only have one tutti doll just chillin on my shelf alone I want to get a Chris and tod! Happy Halloween!
The kids are so fun ! A reminder to add to my collection Tutti & Todd Sunday Treat , &. of course Buffy n ' Mrs Beasley . Your segments are great in that ... they incite the excitement & obsession of collecting Vintage Barbie & her family & friends !
Hey thanks so much! Glad you found somethin new to hunt! haha
This was so cool and very well done!
You got it right. I'm a very devoted Barbie collector, and it's great to see new younger collectors love the vintage Barbie world as much as I do.
I'm a new subscriber, and I can't wait to see what you review next!
Thank you so much!
What a great collection ❤
Very interesting and fun 😃
Glad you enjoyed it!
I appreciate the informative breakdown of the kids and teens ❤ i had no knowledge of the friend Fluff 😮 she is very cute and now I hunt for her lol ! I have a small collection of Kelly and friends and I also have A Todd doll too ! Thanks for sharing 👍
You are so welcome
Love your videos! My parents disapproved of Barbies so I didn't have any - growing up in the UK, I had Sindy instead. But I did get a Skipper doll. I don't think my parents actually realised she was related to Barbie 😄
Nice! It’s a LITTLE strange that Sindy was acceptable but not Barbie. Sounds anti-American. haha thanks for watching!!❤️
@@Thedollswitness Sindy's supposed to be more 'girl next door' than Barbie and her boyfriend was named after Paul McCartney! I don't think it's so much as an anti-American thing, as it is trying to make a doll with a distinctly British personality :) my mum and auntie were not even allowed Sindy, they had Amanda Jane who is somewhere between the ages of Kelly/Shelly and Stacie.
I loved skipper!! I never had any of the other kid dolls like tutti or Todd when I was a kid but I thought they we all super cute. Poor scooter. She was Mattels answer to Midge..........only for Skipper. LOVE your videos you sexy beast!! Keep up the great work......
Haha thanks so much!
I am diggin your videos!!! so nice to see how you enjoy Barbie’s and so knowledgeable lol about Scooter the name the face mold geez I’ve been looking for a nan & Fran pretty pairs also glad you found them I have a few tutti and Todd size dolls in my collection as well as a Carla yay I’m also a Tuesday Taylor fan and Taylor Jones I replaced my Tuesday Taylor penthouse I had growing up, I was lucky my mom bought me Barbie’s Kens houses cars when I was little can’t wait for the next vid
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Poor Scooter!😂😂😂😂
I was nine when Anissa Jones died, the actress who played Buffy on Family Affair. So then my mom got to field the question, "what does 'OD' mean?" 😬 I had that Quick Curl Skipper and a couple of Little Kiddles as a kid.
Oh dear. Child actors rarely lead happy lives. lol poor thing ❤️
You had my "like" when you said you keep a mask on poor Scooter, lol. Honestly, Tutti kind of scares me, too sometimes (crazy eyes). I have a Buffy w Mrs. Beasley because she was one of my childhood faves and I think she does a super cute job repping that line. I did have Growin' Up Skipper as a kid and liked her a lot. It just seemed like a fact of life that girls grow up. And I enjoyed making her grow up and age down, like a fidget. I had a LOT of Barbies as a kid with a few Skippers. I had my sister's blond straight leg and a Malibu Skippper & Growin' Up. I like her better now than I did then. I got a gorgeous brunette Test Market SL Skipper recently that I just LOVE. For me as a kid, Skipper's value rested mostly in being Barbie's adoring audience.
Oh nice! Yeah, I can almost see the appeal for skipper more with adults than kids, which sounds weird. lol I guess I just feel like I really would’ve wanted an ‘adult’ doll as a child. 🤷♂️❤️❤️
I wasn’t allowed to have Skipper. I think my parents realized they would have to buy a whole different wardrobe and said “No way!” The same went for Francie-sized dolls. I was allowed to have Dawn dolls though. Go figure.
Well I’m glad you at least had barbie! ❤️❤️
I enjoyed this video so much I watched it twice. So much good information!! I did not have a Skipper in the 60's but I have a few vintage and newer ones now and one brunette Skooter.
Oh awesome! Thanks so much. Yeah, I think any Mod Skipper would be my fav. 😍
Great video. I always learn so much!❤
Awesome! Thank you!
I had all the dolls growing up! I was born in 2003 but I played with mostly 80s and 90s dolls that my mother passed down to me. I liked all of them but I think I usually identified with Skipper more because she was closer to my age. But as I got older I kind of switched over to Barbie and Francie.
Nice. Yeah, Francie was 15 technically. Really not much older than skipper ❤️
Yeah Francine always seemed to be the perfect younger teenage doll to me. She's not as old as Barbie but older than Skipper. And she's so darn cute!
Well Tuesday Taylor opening the segment threw me a little. Ricky was just assumed to be Alan's brother as they have an undeniable resemblance. Skooter was just a bad influence on Skipper. I can say I just enjoy your knowledge including the Kiddles. I have a Todd, but as you know they haven't aged very well. Keep on producing such great content.
Thank you so much! This was a fun one ❤️
I think Skooter looks like a little sister to Midge.
I’m a new subscriber to your channel, and you are now my favorite doll channel!! I love how you go over all the dolls from the different decades, it is very nostalgic for me, who got my first Barbie and Skipper in the late 60’s around the age of 4 and have loved them ever since!! I also love playing with my brother’ s Big Jim dolls and would love to see a video about the old boys dolls!!
Thanks so much!! Glad u found me. Big Jim was awesome❤️❤️
Your collection is beautiful
Thank you so much 😊
This came up in my recommended while I'm sitting here cleaning my only Liddle Kiddle, Bunson Bernie. He's been put away for years because I knew he'd be fiddly to clean up with that wire body and delicate pieces.
My mum was one of those kids who was only allowed to have Skipper. On the upside, she still has her in great condition with box and everything:)
Fab video as always! I love Skooter lol, I think she's got a super cute cheeky look....as a kid, I definitely identified as Shelly (as Kelly is known in the UK). I've only gotten into Barbie herself in the past 2 years, but I started off collecting Shelly, which evolved into the whole Roberts family.
Very nice!! Shelly’s adorable! Thank u!❤️
I've never seen anything that officially established Ricky or Skooter as a sibling of another doll. I always 'headcanon' that Skooter is Allan's little sister, and Ricky is Midge's little brother, because of the eye colors. Little brown-eyed Chris would be part of Allan and Skooter's family in this scenario. I don't really collect the Tutti-sized dolls all that much, but I do have a Todd and a Chris, both in really good condition, and a Melody In Pink Tutti that I need to restore. I really just need to sort out her hair and restyle it, and find something for her to wear but I haven't. I need to get on that.
You didn't mention her in your video, but I'm sure you know that in the late 90s there was Teen Skipper, who was a really pretty version of the character. She was more of an older teenager, but then Skipper got younger again in the 2000s, where she has remained. Courtney and Nikki from this line are gorgeous dolls, and I have a small collection of these dolls from that time period.
My first Skipper was 1979 Sun Lovin' Malibu Skipper, who I had a child, and for a few years she was my only Skipper (and the Ken from that collection was my only Ken for a couple of years as well). I was all about Barbie and her friends back in the day, it was only as I transitioned into being a collector that I started to appreciate the younger characters and the male dolls more.
Nice! Yeah, I forgot to include Malibu skipper here! Not so different from the tnt, but still. Teen skipper was really pretty too. Agreed ❤️
I love Fluff i want her
I love Skooter
Very educational about Barbie’s siblings or her kids. I am into vintage Barbie’s..I have quite few of them. Very impressive collection! New sub! Thanks for explaining about them. 😍
Thank you! My pleasure ❤️❤️
I never saw Barbie as a teen. I saw her as a career woman raising her siblings.
Skipper needed a playmate friend to hang out with at the beach
I never thought Barbie looked like a teenager.
it's cool to know about vintage dolls since I'm more into 90's - 2000's dolls and ahead so this is interesting! Also love your barbie tattoo omg
Thanks so much! That Barbie tattoo is one of my favs. ❤️❤️
I definitely had that Courtney doll and I still have her in a box somewhere ! LOL and also Teresa and also the heart-to-heart family because they had dark hair and dark eyes because I grew up Puerto Rican in Sunset Park Brooklyn in the 90s or 80s 90s and there wasn’t too many people in MY family and neighborhood at that time with blonde hair and blue eyes so, I always gravitate towards the , dark hair, dark eyed dolls,. That’s why I am so grateful and so in love with the fact that there’s so much more diversity in not only the Barbie world but the doll and toy world and community in general, at least the little kids in my family can have dolls, they relate to, but they can also a variety and a good mix of different dolls, wide view of the world cause believe it or not when little kids are playing with toys that is their world , they controlled that world ,they learn from that world and let me stop myself from going on a tear ❤sorry, but the other dolls that they had in the 90s that I wish they had a version of now is Tommy the little brother of Ken I didn’t know it existed until I saw it in a Sam n Mickey episode but Ken’s little brother Tommy that is a cute doll! And When are we gonna get Barbie’s parents in doll form? like come on now!
I need all this info as I have only recently started my Barbie/Ken doll collection. Thank you for providing it. New Subscriber! I only have one kiddie so far and 23 of the regular size Barbie/Ken. That porcelain Skipper is beautiful and I LOVE her outfit.💕💕💕
Thanks for subbing! Love that skipper outfit too 🙌🏻🔥❤️❤️
Skooter hidden behind her mask 😂
Awe I have a liddle kiddle and poor scooter she's cute too. My scooter has a green stain on her chin. Enjoyed the video I never had a barbie growing up so ive always wanted a barbie. Yeah sure I'll take in a skipper for the right price at local swapmeet.
Oh cool, picking out your first barbie will be exciting! ❤️
Skipper was always my favorite. I even like her better than Barbie. I had both.
Thanks for your video I love seeing your extensive collection. I love Skooter, she was my first "Barbie" as a child. I don't think she's homely, I think she's a cutie! I love the costume that you've dressed her in.
Thank you! Yeah, I give skooter a hard time, but I’m probably judging her too harshly, being that she’s just a kid. lol❤️
Hi!! You have such an amazing collection!! God bless!! Love your channel!! I shared you!!!!! I follow you on IG too!! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!
I had both Barbie and Skipper! Barbie was not an issue!
You also reminded me of a doll in the 1960’s named Pepper she was made by the Ideal Company! She was Tammy’s little sister! She came with a nice 60’s plastic carrying! You could store her in! I had this doll and it’s been so long ago, but I think you could bend her limbs! I was wondering
if you were familiar with her!
Take care!
I do know pepper! I have a small collection of Tammy, Crissy, velvet, etc. super cute
I had Ricky and Tutti as a child. Todd I found several years later. Oiriginally I wanted Tutti&Todd gift pack, but they were all sold out.. However, Todd survived in my plays, He was with Ken´s first wife who lived abroad and never allowed the twins to have any connections..
Lol love it. Tutti and Todd are so adorable ❤️
Cool video
What a great video. You did ist very well. I also like to watch your tattoos. I also have tattoos: He-Man, Skeletor and Fisto and a star with a Madonna -lettering.
Oh awesome! Love Motu ❤️❤️
I could have Barbie and Ken. I also had skipper and tutti. Growing skipper was to expensive. I bought het last month😅 40 years later.
You got do a part 2 Skipper has changed.
Ken and Tommy I have
I just got 2 vintage skippers. I’m still not sure if want to keep them 😅
Who thinks Tutti became Stacie, much the way Kelly became Chelsea?
Yo, speaking of dolls that need to wear facemasks 24/7 that’s how I always felt about Tootie and Todd dolls and also about the smaller Sindy dolls like the riding club Sindy I only have one because I am an equestrian and I’m a lifelong horse girl, so I have to have one, but like there in a box wrapped up I am also Hispanic and I Do Not need that type of energy ! In Spanish it’s mal de Ojo, but at the same time I’m a collector and I like to Include pieces that I don’t necessarily think are that beautiful but I think are important to have because they are part of the history and the story of the collection as a whole and that it will feel more complete at the end of it all. It’s kind of like the fact that I don’t really like the Beatles but I respect their music and what they’ve done for music as a whole so I know some of their more important music pieces even though I wouldn’t play them for myself TMI. SORRY ITS AN ADD moment! My bad really! Actually, the thing I really wanted to let you know was that I just found your RUclips channel and (I haven’t slept yet and I forgot about daylight savings so it got me ALL fucked up! ) and now it’s 8 AM and I got shit to do today and I was kind of debating whether I should take my ADD meds. and just say fuck it.! I was thoroughly annoyed by everything in life and then like a beacon of light the channel I never knew I needed, and I wish I found sooner pops up in my feed and I found your videos! Hallelujah! 🎉and you have saved my sanity for the day, ❤I am truly enjoying them, and you can really sense the work and passion that you put into making them. I am absolutely in love with them and I can’t wait to binge watch them all day.❤❤❤❤❤❤ between watching your videos and probably binge watching Sam and Mickey videos while I’m in and out of the house or sitting in fucking Staten Island traffic, I just thought you should know that you are helping my mental illness and the delusion that I’m actually going to get any type of shit done today😊❤❤❤❤ sending you peace, love and health energy from New York. I hope you have a better day than me.
Aw haha thank you so much!! Glad you found me!! And yeah, I know some collectors that think Tutti and Todd look like evil twins for sure. lol ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why is Skooter's body lighter color then her head
Why is Ricky shorter than Skipper
Here's an off topic question, do you know if they ever made a dial version of Kitty carry-all Cindy Brady's doll? I've tried to search but have not found one
Can’t say I know of any!❤️❤️
I had Christie and barbies
I have camping fun Skipper and Sun Jewel Skipper bathing suit I forgot what she was called I think sun Jewel Skipper and Sun Jewel Barbie , Sun Jewel Kira , Sun Jewel Teresa and Sun Jewel Midge
For how long did you collecting Barbie dolls?
I had Growing Up Skipper and thought she was so cool! Also, what the hell kinda name is Fluff?😂
Haha really more of an uninspired dog name, but cute enough on a doll. lol ❤️
I was just perusing eBay for Barbie reproductions and even those were extremely expensive. Its insane..........
Right? Mod repros today are just about as pricey as originals. It’s nuts ❤️
Did shooter have any tagged clothes?
I don’t think she did, just borrowed from skipper. ❤️
I don't think Skooter is ugly. Dusty was an ugly doll.
I had all Barbies and Ken and the rest in the 70's I was 5 in the 70's
Why are man and fran whites of their eyes red spooky
I agree parents are weird
And hurt ow I got poked by the wire my mom threw it out so I wouldn't get harmed
It was whatever they had in 1970 when I was 5 years old
answer me a burning question......did Skipper ever have a bf NAmed todd
I think you’re thinking of Ricky. Tutti and Todd were barbie and skipper’s younger siblings ❤️
I was thinking of the early 90s Kevin and my Christian mom hated Barbie and thought it would create unrealistic expectations for me as a disabled child this didn't deter me and I lusted after all the Barbies in Toys R Us for years I broke down in the toy aisle one year and my exasperated mother relented and got me cameo barbie because she was dressed modestly I loved her @@Thedollswitness
