    Lol the pregnant barbie had a permanent wedding ring and I remember asking my mom why and she said because according to Mattel single mothers don’t exist. Also I had the one with the pooping dog and I LOVED THAT GUY OMG. What they didn’t tell you is that the poops are exactly the same dimensions as tic tacs. Used that little guy as a breath mint dispenser for years haha.

    If Barbie can run for President (and she has during every US election since the late 80s), she has to be at least 35 years old, as per the US Constitution. I’m not sure why the “Happy Family Midge” doll was such a big deal... I remember there was even a picture of her wedding to Alan on the back of the box. If it’s inappropriate for an adult to have a baby with their spouse, _what exactly is an appropriate situation to start a family?_

I find dressing her as a Mariachi to be more stereotypical. I don't mind the chihuahua either, yeah I know Taco Bell had a chihuahua, but a lot of actual Mexican people have chihuahuas too plus the chihuahua is one of only 5 or6 breeds that still have traces of pre conquest dogs in their ancestry so I'm for keeping the chihuahua.

    The happy family Midge doll is really tastefully done and Growing Up Skipper actually seems really progressive today. The computer engineer one is kinda dumb. She could be a game designer in the book but I'd think if she's specifically engineering you'd expect that she'd be doing the work on coding. Tanner eating her own poop just always makes me think of the old Mike Mozart video where he toy reviewed it and made Tanner grossed out by Barbie forcing her to eat crap. The Mexican Barbie is pretty even if it is a bit stereotypical.

    I had three of the "scandalous" dolls as a kid; Pregnant Midge was actually one of my favorites *because* of the baby mechanics. I have to wonder if part of the idea came from watching real kids do just as I had previously when I wanted to tell a doll story that involved having a baby: Shove a plastic egg under one of Barbie's loose-fit dresses.
    I remember seeing the recall notices in stores over the Tanner doll...several weeks after I had been given one by my parents. Fortunately, by that stage in my life I had outgrown "put everything in your mouth that isn't nailed down" so my parents didn't take the doll away or anything. In hindsight, the pooping mechanic seems weird at first, but if you think about it a little bit longer, in some ways it teaches kids that you should pick up after your pets...and less directly, it might also teach them not to pull/push an animal's tail unless you want a nasty surprise. [Albeit with the doll that would be a much safer way to learn that particular lesson.]
    I also had the video-cam Barbie, though because I was so young it was really more because the *idea* of having a Barbie with a camera was cool more so than to actually film things with it. Never heard about the FBI scare until now.

    I'm sorry but, out of them all, I'm bothered by the fact people saw Midge , the pregnant Barbie doll, as a taboo. How many kids genuinely ask their parents for a younger sibling and see their own moms pregnant? That's nature! Humans procreate and continue their bloodlines. It was a wonderful doll which I wish I had as a kid! The whole Happy Family line was lovely and of high quality and even inspired a doll show on RUclips.
    The Mexican Barbie looks like Elena of Avalor, she is gorgeous!
    I had the Barbie with the dog that poops 😂 She was so beautiful. The set was funny.
    The tattoo Barbie is not that bad, just not very practical. Same for the video recording doll.
    The scale is very sad. 110 for a tall woman like Barbie isn't particularly healthy. But weight overall depends on many things. I weighed that much in grade 2... So, doesn't really bother me. The weird duet booklet was unnecessary.
    But overall, the dolls aren't that bad, and that was an educational video. Didn't know about the first and last facts.

    I think the Teen Talk Barbie controversy was another example of people looking for issues where there wasn't any. Could Mattel have come up with some better phrases for the doll? Definitely. But I don't think any of those phrases were as bad as some parents were making them out to be. The doll was supposed to be fun and relatable and have more of a "valley girl" type of personality which was common for the time period. Lots of teen girls going to the mall and being silly and kind of ditzy. That's not saying all girls are like but it was just something fun. It's just like the movie Clueless isn't saying all women are like the girls in that movie and I don't think anyone who loves that movie is saying it's an 100% accurate representation of women or girls. I just don't get the people who made such a huge deal out of a doll. She wasn't telling kids don't do math or give up if it's hard she was just saying math class is tough which I think it should be okay for kids to express that kind of stuff.

    Oh my gosh!! My sister and I legit had 2 of the Barbie and pooping Tanner dolls! We each had our own for some reason haha
    I think the actual pellets were also a choking hazard since they’re so small and kinda magnetic? I don’t remember exactly but I think the little poos were also magnets or it was dangerous to swallow the magnets with the pellets.
    I also remember the controversy that came up a while after my sister and I had been gifted these dolls and wondering if we should return them but at that point they were too well played with! Anyway, she was always one of my favourites! Fully articulated, gorgeous hair, the dog was cute and fun to make poop haha. I loved her and thankfully we were old enough at that point to properly play with them :)

    People need to get a grip. It's a doll for God's sakes. If parents are that upset then why don't they just do their job and explain to the children what they don't like about the doll or how they could view it differently or what the doll was actually intended to do.

    There's also three more I can think of. It does relate to the tattoo Barbie you talked about in this video, and that is non other than Butterfly Art Barbie. Apparently she was controversial for the same reason and apparently the line was recalled. Also the first issue 1995 Teacher Barbie was recalled because she was accused of indecent exposure from not warring panties. Also we can't forget the time she broke up with Ken and became more rebellious lol

    I hav the pregnant Barbie in the shorter denim dress (w/o freckles) She was pulled from the shelves due to the controversy. She was later released w/ a “gold wedding band” on her left finger along w/ a “Ken” doll cut out in the background sending the msg “she was married”
    Mine is mint in the box. Definitely suggest anyone who’s interested to get their hands on her b/c her price is only going to heavily increase.
    I noticed on ur “sleeping beauty” video that the comments were turned off.
    I collect essentially only “collectors barbies” mostly the glamorous ones. I do love sleeping beauty. She is my favorite Disney princess. There was a sleeping beauty that was released in 01” from the Mattel Disney “sparking line” she’s featured in her “blue” dress. One on eBay finally popped up ..I bought her ..she’s very rare. Hardly any dolls of sleeping beauty were made in her blue dress.
    Barbie also has her own line of “storybook princesses” ...I have all of them..they are not as rare but all gorgeous

    RE the Oreo doll- [I'm not black, so take this with a grain of salt] From what I understand, the word Oreo was used to refer to black people who "act white", which a lot of black people (rightfully) took offense to. So Mattel releasing a black doll promoting Oreos was seen in bad taste. It's possible they didn't know, but the outrage was understandable. Again, this is just my understanding as a nb person, so I could be off the mark here. If anyone who is black wants to weigh in and add on or correct me, it'd be appreciated.

    • @ElizabethStripes-nk8ww

      but the stupid part is that they had a white version, so what was the secret racist message about the white doll? could it it be that the dolls were literally about the fucking oreos printed on their shirts and not some secret racists conspiracy? and they took out a black doll to be more inclusive because most barbies where all white? you cant win

    I also didn't see anything wrong with the pregnant Barbie doll or the growing up Skipper doll because they represent very real and natural aspects of adult hood and puberty. I never thought that the pregnant Barbie looked too young, when I had this doll I thought she looked like a woman who was of the perfect age to have babies. And the Skipper doll shouldn't have been an issue either because there's nothing wrong with showing puberty in a doll, it's something that every young girl goes through and boobs are nothing to be ashamed of.

    Taking notes for the doll line I mentioned in your last vid. XD Just kidding, some of these were inexcusable and/or easily avoidable. However, people/companies make mistakes sometimes, especially in the span of 60 years. And sometimes people get upset for dumb reasons. Barbie in particular can't get a break, even if they're just doing their best to do the right thing.
