    Thanks for watching! Small correction to the outfit the Swirl Ponytail is wearing. For whatever reason in the video I called it Midnight Magic. It’s actually called Black Magic :)

    I got my Barbie (Brunette with ponytail) on my 8th birthday (1961). For the next 4 years I was obsessed with everything Barbie. I had the vanity, the four poster bed and the original Corvette which was orange with aqua seats & plastic "chrome" trim (1963). I had the board game, the books and the records, too. I also had Ken, Allan, Midge, Skipper and Scooter. At 12 I lost interest in the Barbie world. But even as an adult I still have a burning desire to have more clothes than she did! Thanks for the fun trip down memory lane!!!

    I really love your very lucky purchase. I love everything you got. The furniture is amazing and I believe on Etsy there is a seller who makes replica seat cushions in the original patterns for your incredibly rare couch from 1965. I love all your boxes and cases and the beautiful condition you found them in. I have a few vintage pieces and they are precious to me but your find is the holy grail. Thank you for sharing and I really enjoyed your video.

    The Rolls Royce is not official a Barbie car, or made by Mattel. It was made in the mid to late 1980s by a company called Zima, in the old version of what we’d call third party manufacturing now. They made it to fit various 12 inch dolls, but obviously with the intent to capture a small slice of the massive Barbie economy. People do collect that car within Barbie collections, even though it isn’t canon. It goes really well with Barbie and the Rockers, but could also pass as a vintage car for 60s Barbie (even though it’s based on an 70s-80s Rolls Royce, the Corniche Cabriolet).

    The platinum Swirl, Black Magic, and the Little Theater costumes are the standouts for me. I don't have any of the Little Theater fashions except Barbie Arabian Nights, one of these days I should try to find more of them. Always love a good Swirl, and that one is a real beauty.

    For fixing stuff I have used 2 part apoxy clay, it really works well might be too chunky to restore the bed, Ive used it to repurpose 80s doll furniture or the austin healy car from the 60s. Especially if something has a crack. I never have luck with super glue. I may try hobby glue for melting plastic together they use on car model kits. I always mean to try it and forget.
