Dear Mattel,
Brushable hair ✅️
Fully articulated bodies ✅️
Clothes that feel like something an actual person would wear ✅️
Painted on clothes ❌️
Plastic clothes ❌️
Outfits that only look good from the front ❌️
Sincerely, Everyone who's ever played with Barbie
Took the words right out of my mouth
the only painted on clothe that's okay is the Fashion Fever one
i do like outfits that don't seem realistic, i just dont want EVER outfit to be a full 1986 glamour look
I swear, the 80s, 90s, and 00s kids were spoiled with high quality Barbies
IKR
Yeah, i don’t understand when people say 80s & 90’s, also 00’s were decent quality hair !!!! I think it’s 2010’s when the quality started to decrease, and it angers me cause in the 2000’s I was already a teen and free to buy any Barbie like I’m doing nowadays, I really had to wait until 2019 to buy my 1st Barbie ?!? I was shook at the hair quality these days but I still love all the Barbies I’m buying now, but I can’t help but think MY DECADE for buying Barbies should’ve been the 2000’s 💯, when I was a teen flower babe and when they created the best Barbies !!!! that was literally the decade for me !! Like all those Barbies were probably waiting for me to be picked up in like 2007/2008 and i was just whining at how I wasn’t a muscled straight male OMG
@@ReginaTrans_ I still remember my first Barbie doll like it was yesterday. In addition to the Swan Lake film, I also got the Odette doll with the light up wings. Sadly, I don't have her anymore (I think it got donated) but yeah. She was one of my favorite Barbie's growing up
@@Onest00p1d_vampire love that, I think the 2010’s was cool with monster high dolls when Barbie lost quality, maybe that’s why Mattel stopped due to monster high, around 2015, but also monster high got discounted just a few years ago so now there’s NO doll!!! Except for the LOL & OMG dolls ....... seriously ?
@@ReginaTrans_ Even when I was a Lalaloopsy collector, MGA didn't play when it came to quality
Hate comparing the old barbie dolls like the barbie swan lake doll to some of the new recent dolls. It’s just so sad how far the quality has dropped. I have seen barbie rip offs with better quality then Mattel nowadays.
And it sucks to know that the clothes are printed on instead of using fabric or something, why is mattel becoming lazy over quality the barbie merch might fall..
So true! The new ones, especially colour reveal are soooo cheaply produced!
yes like simba steffi love has started to release toddler dolls with movable knees with real hair!!! kelly ( skipper babysitter ones ) nowadays have glued hair and can hardly move a muscle!!
@@jayatripathi2097 hard plastic molded hair is the absolute worst!!
Yes i agreed! What make me buy authentic barbie ,still ,compared to the rip offs one is , the fact that barbie face and skin colour varieties , and the head movement .while the rip offs just the same.
I feel like the quality of today's barbie dolls has dropppeed dooown so much. I'm kinda sad, even small children deserve good quality, i would hate this as a kid.
We had good quality dolls when we were kids. Kids of today deserve better Barbies. If I have kids someday, I will be buying them 2000s Barbies if Mattel doesn't get their act together.
@@accidentalalien4112 I’m gonna keep all mine and give them to my kids to play with in the future ain’t no way in hell am I buying modern barbies for my kids lol
Exactly, and the price is still premium doll price! Disgusting.
Аналогично 😢
I feel that way about a lot of modern barbies. "Who is buying these?" lol
You know what I blame for the painted on clothes? There was this barbie in the 90's where she had click on clothes. That was the moment Mattel started to slide.
@@BarbieGuy-gb9zw can you tell the name of that Barbie?
There are actually a lot of videos of collectors I watch on here that just love and praise them. The fashionistas for example. I don’t know, I think they are terrible. Even the collector line is cheap!
It was Snap and Play Barbie
@@dollylinkera Snap n' Play Barbie.
The color reveal line is a dumpster fire
Agreed.
freaking gross, they were the first time i saw barbies in a long time and it's outrageous.
I have one and I think she’s cute. She has like ginger hair and blue eyes she’s pretty (my opinion)
The quality of Barbies is so awful. It’s sad as someone who grew up during a time when Barbies were great quality and so beautiful.
Fun fact! The American Idol dolls were rereleased with standard bodies as apparently even Mattel realised they'd possibly made a mistake XD
I hope color reveal ist at number 1 they deserve it
Same. Srsly that line is so lazy and low quality it's not even funny.
Yes! I bought one when they first came out, but then it just didn’t stop. It’s most annoying as well.
@@cherb2795 They Scammed U They Don't Bend Leg's
So bad indeed...my daughter really wanted the chelsea one, so bought it for her, just to get the experience, but such bad quality!
Straight away I wondered how soon they would appear on the list 😅
When i was little the best part was dressing the doll like i would dress them always and now they just paint the dolls....
Exactly! What fun is a fashion doll if you can't put her in different outfits!
I hate, HATE, HATE the hard plastic legs. The first time I experienced them was when my kiddo opened a Barbie Fashonista with a realistic shape. She was SO excited for that doll.. But those legs were so disappointing. I was like, "MATTEL, WHAT IS THIS?"
i remember getting the mermadia doll when i was 6 years old. i HATED it because her clothes were hard plastic that you couldn't change and her tail wasn't bendable. the only redeemable thing about it was that it was color changing. i'm 20 years old and i still remember. kids don't forget.
Perfect examples of designing for the garbage bin. Colour Reveal is definitely the worst Mattel output ever.
I had Bubble Angel Barbie (2:05) when I was a child. I loved the blue see-through, Cinderella like slippers she had! That's also the reason why I nowadays have myself see-through ballerina shoes made by Melissa :)
Always love your videos. You're one of the very few 100% homest toy reviewers. Everyone else just say they like everything and I think it's just too prevent arguments and offending the companies (probably also to continue getting freebies lol) but you just say it how it is with no filter. You're brilliant 💗💗 xx
Totally agree. They *NEED* those free products so they can keep making the most profit off of their videos.
@@DannyoffireAwaken I think with some it's more just for freebies but I guess others it's for more money too. I love that with Joey he keeps it real. He seems like a lovely person too 😊👍
Amen
I wish they would do more halloween barbies! It's so sad they don't do them anymore and to see the quality lack with barbie dolls today. Would love a follow up video!
They used to make Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Easter Barbies, at least in my area! Now all we get are the cheap Christmas ones. For a while Target seemed like they were getting some what decent ones called "Christmas Morning" or something. Real cloth pajamas even. Now it's that plastic/wrapping paper "clothing". 🙄
I have quite a few of the Halloween Barbies and they were so fun to collect. I miss them too.
@@tracyingalls2074 Yes I have a few christmas and Halloween barbies from the 90s/early 2000s the attention to detail and effort was amazing and they use to put so much effort into the boxes that the barbies came in I've kept most of mine in their boxes because I love them so much and it really adds to the doll. I just wish we got that nowadays. I meant if it ain't broke? We don't have Target in the uk but I know about christmas morning barbie and I agree with you! When I saw them online it made me feel some hope. I hope one day they will see videos like this and listen to us that we want that quality back and how important halloween, christmas etc dolls are to us doll fans!
@@dmeyer7425 I just got halloween charm barbie from 2006 and I love her so much!
@@Jessieee
Yup I have her too. I think my favorite was the boo-tiful ghost. She was a target exclusive.
Even children are maddened by painted on tops. My daughter has attempted to scratch them off!
I love a good Barbie roast! (Not the Soundgarden kind :D) All of the mermaids pale in comparison to for example a 90's Barbie that I own called Jewel Hair Mermaid. Tons of features and actual several textured fabrics! And a removable tail so she could walk! It wasn't even a special edition but the standard.
Haha barbie roast
I honestly prefer the Barbie mermaids with just the tail, no legs underneath
For me they are authentic mermaids
90s mermaids were beautiful but they were just normal Barbies with special hair DRESSED up as mermaids (and some of their tails didn't look like fish to me)
The 2002 Mermaid Fantasy are the best because they had a tail that really looked like a fish and that really moved by squeezing the hips.
I can't wait for Mattel to make a swimming mermaid Barbie
I was gifted that doll on Christmas, I absolutely adored it!!! Gosh as soon as I read her name, I looked it up to check if it was her and so many memories came flooding back, I almost got tears in my eyes from the nostalgia, the stars in her hair, the sparkles, the crown, the ring, the star earrings!!!I know it’s been 9 months since you wrote the comment, but thank you!
Please do a Bratz one! We are intrigueeed!!
Honestly we don’t know why they decided to do the dreamtopia line, all the dolls are just tacky, colors super exposed, weird conmbinations…
And maybe the bob mackie barbie was based on the star of bethlehem??
His “Goddess” Barbies were magical. Idk what he was thinking with that one!
"Hi, Joey!" 💝 Many of these don't even look like Barbies. Hopefully, the 'Barbie Movie' will inspire more classic and quality Barbies! 💖
I transplanted the American Idol doll head on a normal 00’s belly button body , and she is quite pretty IMO. That body was just gross.
You know what dolls I hated? Those Cali Girl era dolls with the huge flat feet and big balloon head. Those started the Barbie debacle. From then on playline Barbie had that huge swollen head for a long time.
В яблочко!😂
I know it's not a doll, but I've always had a love-hate relationship with the dresses that came with the World fashion magazines. You either got a beautiful piece of clothing or something either lazily designed or really bad quality. I know, it from a magazine but one of my all time favourite barbie dresses came from that magazine collection. It was a purple dress with a third layered skirt and 3d flowers on the chest.
The worst Barbie Holidays were 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2020, Honestly Barbie had a better quality in the past years, the modern Barbies are the worst with a terrible quality unfortunately.
Holiday 2020 was horrible in my opinion. That cheap gold material for her dress was terrible. She was wearing a plastic belt. On a holiday Barbie. From what I’ve seen this years holiday Barbie looks just as bad.
The past Barbie Holidays didn't have plastic accessories on them, some of them used to wear real accessories with beautiful gowns with a better quality, sadly they won't bring back that good quality that the past Barbie Holidays used to have.
@@dmeyer7425 It is terrible, the bodice looks like star wars or some weird armor
My daughter has few terrible barbies given to her over a few Christmas’s.
I believe they could all be from the same line (dream topia) but she has a moulded fairy with flimsy plastic/cardboard wings (I hate those wings so much), the mermaid with the moulded body and tail and she has a bubble mermaid WITH MOULDED BODY, the bubble blower tail was so flimsy it bent and split into places and there’s something about not being able to dress these dolls that makes me sad because I see my daughters frustration trying to put Barbie clothes on these dolls and getting them stuck.
The mermaids and fairy could have been better if the tail and wings were part of the outfit you could take off.
Whenever I get a gifted Barbie with molded hair I like to trim it off and make a wig for her lol
One of the main reasons I loved Barbies so much was all the clothes, dressing them up and creating new outfits! I had the Christmas Barbie from 90/91 or 92, the one in the green velvet dress with the red, green and clear gems sown onto the bodice, it it was so luxurious! Even when I was nannying (2008-2012), the girls ( aged 6 and 3 when I started) had some pretty good Barbies ( they may have had the knee bend still) and some decent fashions! Not sure when it all went completely downhill.
@@louisacoote2337 around 2015
I am kind of sad for you kids right now :')
I'm 50 and when I was young all Barbie's were articulated. Now sadly children and collectors have nothing to look forward to except at best hinged legs ( unrealistic) or cheap nasty designs of rigid plastic. So to toy companies lift your game, maybe even if people need to pay more for quality perhaps they will, it's better than buying the complete rubbish that's out there at the moment.
Hello did you get the 1977 Superstar Barbie ? That one is gorgeus , the 25th anniversary remake is not as gorgeous as that one
I just open my first Rainbow High doll (Violet) today and I just can't believe how superior her quality than my recent barbie dolls!
My first RH was Violet too, and I felt the same way. I was especially in awe of the nice hair. I still prefer Barbie proportions, but RH is better quality than Barbie Extra (the same price), for sure.
"She looks like Slenderman" 🤣 I think American Idol doll had a rubber body so you could bend her any old way. Kinda reminds me of the Gumby dolls and their weird bodies.
One of my friends and I collected Barbies right up until they stopped using the click and snap knees and went for the solid plastic legs. Hated it, still don't like it, and I'm sick of begging Mattel to at least use the articulated bodies. Not even MTM, just more than 5 points! I dislike, strongly, the Model Muse bodies. Poor girl looks like she never eats and has a back injury.
I feel that. I absolutely HATE the Model Muse body. What's even more insulting is the standard Barbies don't even have swivel head action anymore. They have a 1" spike so the head won't come off, but it only turns from side to side. I rebodied a couple and I was like WTF
I hate the Dreamtopia line. All the colors they use are so garish.
i am actually so annoyed at what mattel has done to barbie. like, what is their excuse? Cheap crappy hair, painted on and molded clothes - those are literally the two things kids like the most about the dolls just taken away. But the thing that i think really really shows how pathetically cheap they are is the whole not extending the pattern all the way to the back of the clothes. Seriously, just HOW cheap can you get, i just can't.... i'm so annoyed lol
And to end this on a positive note - love your channel!
I despise molded on/painted on clothing. Mostly because it's hard to hide under some clothing. If they must do it I wish they would do underwear colors.
that's the sad thing- barbie isn't glamorous anymore 🥺
I'm so glad you included the American Idol barbie. I acquired the Tori one in a lot recently and was totally dumbfounded as to what it was... I couldn't believe mattel would have made this contorted stretched out monstrosity! WTF mattel?!
She's not so bad when you rebody her. That body never made any sense! I still have one floating around, I should send it back to Mattel lol.
@@amym2535 yes, I agree, the face is really pretty and nice hair, thought about re-bodying but sold her cheap to someone on ebay who wanted that freaky body.
The American Idol dolls were supposed to have the Everflex bodies that Dance N Flex and the 2003 Cheerleader dolls have but then used the weird bodies. What’s even stranger is how the entire arm and legs are fully flexible.
Ouuu! New Video!
I love these types of videos. I hope Mattel sees these and learns from their earlier Mistakes.
I do like the Barbie Extra Line, it's bringing back Barbie's earlier quality.
“The skirt is cheap; the material’s cheap; the hair is cheap. Everything’s awful. So. . there you go!” For the first time in my life, I want a custom ringtone.
I want the high quality pastel dolls back
I want the dolls to have puffy jackets and the princess dolls to have full gowns with LONG sleeves again.
@@accidentalalien4112 ikr
I love hearing you roast dolls loool. The careers ice skater and that halloween barbie are two I love though! Also, I think my main issue with the Fairy Secret one would be that her wings are too low down and look like they're coming out of her butt...
😂
I actually like the Bob Mackie Holiday doll because it gave me a modern type of Clara from the Nutcracker beside the mauve made her look elegant.
I've always been fond of the Bob Mackie dolls, his designs are actually fun and creative
I agree. I love them. They are the only holiday Barbie’s I ever bought for myself.
5:30 I would have NEVER guessed that is an original Barbie! Looks like a 5 pound bootleg
It looks like a toddler got a hold of some Sharpies had a field day.
I love mermaidia dolls ;'(
I agree !👍I used to love collecting the Halloween Barbie, it was a tradition to me ❤! But, then, Halloween Barbies just became cheap and i was DONE !!!
You should put Skipper babysitter inc on this list bc that line was so expensive and they were horrible
Yeah, I keep wondering why Bob Mackie keeps getting selected to design Barbie outfits...What, is he sleeping with half the Board at Mattel? I don't care that he is a Fashion Legend. It's clear he doesn't know how to design for Barbie. As for my choice for worst: I wouldn't say they are the worst. I think most of the Holiday (Christmas) Barbies are bad. You spend so much more for them and the doll is OK, but not great. The dress, or outfit, is rarely good and only sometimes pretty. To spend that much on a Barbie and get..."well it's nice"... is not acceptable.
I’m pretty sure Bob Mackie hasn’t done a Barbie with Mattel in 10 years, so he doesn’t “keep getting selected”. He was a big name in fashion and Barbies 20+ years ago and designed some lovely (for the taste of the time) high-end Barbie Collector dolls. I think his Christmas dolls fell flat because he is usually extravagant, and they are the lowest-priced dolls he designed. I don’t think he knew how to work within those constraints. I disagree that he doesn’t know how to design for Barbie: some of his dolls are the best ever made by Mattel. Again, tastes have changed over time, but the fabrics, sequins, and embroidery are amazingly detailed and high-quality.
@@c.w.2000 Your right, I should have looked it up first. It just seems I always hear that he designed this or that for Barbie.
I have always hated Bob Mackie Barbie dolls, from the first one decades ago. They are just gross, their fashions way too ornate, and I would not want one if someone was giving them away! I refuse to collect anything but the true vintage 1960s Barbie family...
Thank you for the video ! Its a shame how barbie quality is not the same anymore , principally for people who wants to start collecting , would you do a video about your favorite Barbie dolls of all time? And a video about your least favorites Bratz dolls would be good as well , again , thank you for your videos ! I really love them💗
The stupid part of all this is that doll influencers complain about the quality of Barbie nowadays, except they throw their money at mattel whenever they can to get some views.
It was his opinion and it really is not that impression class A barbie editions so at least he made an awareness and critique about it
I had an American Idol doll from an eBay haul a while back and iirc they had such bad articulation, I think it was only the arms that moved and the legs were unmovable. I took the head off to customize and threw the body where it belonged. The skip.
I've always hated Barbies that "do stuff" like fly, twirl, turn, dance, sing, talk ... Even as a kid I was like Let Me Decide how to play with the dolls please 😑
As a parent i will say this about the Dreamtopia mermaids. They are sturdy, with no loose parts to loose in the pool and therefore there will be no bereft six year old who is sobbing hysterically because she can’t find her Barbie’s tiara. Not the most Collector friendly dolls but my daughter immediately loved her mermaid and asked if she could sleep with her and Barbie is now a fixture in the bathtub. It also keeps her occupied and away from mommy’s fancy custom doll collection XD
I agree that a doll wearing non-removable plastic clothes just doesn't draw on a person's creativity. But when it comes to the Dreamtopia line, I really, really like my 17 inch Dreamtopia Endless Hair Princess Barbie. She's posable, fun to dress, and she has a nice facial expression. I have the one with a cocoa complexion, and I really enjoy her. The only thing I wish I could change about her is the streak of purple in her long, dark hair. Thank you for making this video, Joey. You're authentic and expressive! I also enjoy your topics.
After so many years it's nice to know where that red holiday dress came from. I got that red dress in a thrift store grab bag of barbie clothing and I used it to dress a Draculara doll I also found at a thrift store. The combination isn't half bad and after taking the underskirt off of the dress, it gives me an winter vibe.
I love the old Barbie dolls not the new ones
I do want a follow up video.
When I was a kid, despite loving my 90s dolls, I was very aware that their were lower quality than my mom’s 60s dolls (who I was allowed to play with occassionally, under supervision.) Those 60s dolls had lifelike hair and so many tiny accessories, and their clothes were so intricate, like real clothes in miniature. My dolls were all polyester and velcro, while my mom’s dolls had zippers, lining, real pockets, mixed materials, even teeny tiny clothes tags. It’s sad to see that things have fallen so much further that my dolls are now a high point.
Even though Mattel and MGA HATEEE each other I think they should team up for ONE a item and hopefully it’s good? Btw love ur vids bye!
Gotta respectfully disagree with you about Nori from Mermadia and the American Idol Barbie. I actually appreciated Nori's 'stumpy' tail because unlike my other mermaid dolls, it never broke after taking her swimming with me countless times. And although her torso was curved, American Idol Barbie had a microphone she could actually sing into, so I made her the famous singer my other dolls would watch in concert. Lots of good memories with those dolls 💞
I had a Barbie mermaid I don't remember which line she was from but she had a rubber tail, and at her hips there was some like mechanicisn if you pushed it her tail moved
@@screamingbanshee1282 She sounds amazing!!
The first doll, I got my daughter from the thrift store. I was taken aback by the lack of articulation at the legs. But my little girl loved how her wings spun around. It doesn't work anymore😅
I feel like what a lot of these dolls have in common is lack of versatility. Children play with dolls in so many different ways , so why make a doll that can only be one thing ?? Like the colour reveal dolls.
Remind Mattel that these are supposed to be fashion dolls. Plastic molded on clothes is a no no for fashion dolls. And the fashions need improvement, too.
As for the Bob Mackie dolls .. They don't call him Tacky Mackie for nothing..lol
I think with Bob Mackie dolls you either love them or you hate them. I tend to not like them. I don’t like his Holiday dolls, they are my least favorite. There are some moon and sun dolls that just are overloaded with sequins and I just think they very tacky. There’s more but I can’t think of the names.
The pink and white Bob Mackie Barbie that you don’t like the most and you said you didn’t understand the concept- the concept/inspiration is a “shooting star” 😀 the top of her diagonal sash has the star and the jagged edges are the shooting part. You can like or dislike any Barbie you want of course 💗 I am a Bob Mackie Barbie fan so I thought I’d share- and I am also a massive fan of yours too. I love your videos and your opinions and sense of humour- you are amazing!💗
It is supposed to be a shooting star??? I never noticed that :')
I understand the concept, but kind of agree with him with the doll being kind of a mess. But I think it comparing with some of the other holiday Barbies, the two dolls he designed were unique
I was just checking if you had uploaded any videos recently! Btw I really like the quality of your channel and your accent.
Thank you for having that American Idol doll on list because that’s the first one that came to my mind. I got one when I was a kid and I was so disappointed that her body was stuck at that crooked weird angle. Absolutely awful, I never played with her.
I recently went back and started collecting all of the Barbie’s I had when I was a kid. If you grew up in the 80s, 90s, 00s you were lucky. I refuse to buy any new Barbie’s unless they are collectible ones, but even those have dipped in quality.
The Mermaidia mermaid dolls with the stumpy tails were not so bad in person because there was a curve to the tails. It looks shorter in photos. However, I don’t understand the fins. That was weird.
i just bought nori and I’m in love with her yes maybe the tails could have been given a bit more love but the doll itself is everything! 💫☺️🏳️🌈
What are you??
Halloween Barbie, rolling her eyes and pointing at her ear headband: I'm a cat. Duh
I was surprised about the 2013 holiday barbie was on here the fabric for the dress isnt that cheap. Brocade is an expensive fabric and satin can be expensive (laser cut snowflakes) and her hair wasnt even that bad
It seems that as Barbie goes down hill MGA is making some really good quality dolls. I’ve been debating on starting to collect the omg dolls but at the moment I have nowhere to display them
Honestly, I'm living for this! I always love hearing your opinions on Barbie. I do disagree with you on the 1st Holiday Barbie, as I own her and actually like her dress, but that's just my personal opinion. 😁💖
The colour reveal dolls would be fun for younger kids but that’s about it 🤭
Lmao i have the barbie and the secret door one, ngl i don't even remember how i got her since i've never heard of this movie untill now
It gets worse when u take off the fabric skirt.. also you can't remove the wand, she's currently lost somehwere in my old toys
Tbh I HATE the painted on tops a lot of Barbie dolls have. I always hated them as a kid, too, because it limits your creativity when you're trying to play with those dolls. I don't understand why Mattel keeps doing it - it's not like the fabric they use is particularly expensive or anything.
I have collected Barbies for years and the quality of recent dolls (even the expensive "collector dolls" are so cheaply made). It's disheartening and if Mattel would go back to the quality of years past they would see a huge jump in sales. I've learned if the box is flimsy and cheap then expect the same from the doll inside.
Can you make a video with all the fairy Barbies??? Some of them are just amazing!!
I have the america idol barbie.. and she's amazing. Her clothes are very good quality, and her hair is very nice. Her body looks wired in the package,but I swear once u get her out she's fine. But I do agree with all the rest..❤️
🤣 I love that you are "TOO REAL" with your reaction to these dolls
Yess please make a Bratz one!! Would love to see it
I was never a “Barbie Girl” growing up and even I’m saddened by the quality of modern play line Barbie. I think the collector ones are still kind of nice and have considered buying a few.
I had completely forgotten about slenderman pop barbie 🤢😂
If Ruth Handler, the creator of Barbie dolls were still alive today, she would be DISGUSTED to see her creation become a line up of sub-standard quality dolls. She's probably rolling in her grave.
Considering they’re supposed to be fashion dolls and dressable, plastic molded clothes are counterintuitive af
oh my god I had the American Idol Barbie! I saw it in a shop when I was around 10 and asked for it for Christmas that year. I was so hyped for it - I was convinced she must have a bendy body or something because of the way she was positioned in the box. But no, she's literally stuck like that. I found that a bit disappointing. I liked her outfit though, and all the bits and pieces that came with her - especially that karaoke machine that played Oops I Did It Again lmao
I do have the Mermaidia mermaids and their tails aren't really that short in real. They are a good length and they have a curve to it as they are meant to be posed sitting down, otherwise they'll fall. And they were a really good price back in the day unlike recent Barbie mermaids who are so bland.
I agree with all the doll choices. Don’t like them. I’m an art teacher and I pretty much like all colors except olive green. I like crazy prints and stuff but I don’t like that cheap fabric and printed on pockets, etc.
All the hard plastic straight leg dolls. They break quite easily.
The quality of the barbies have gone down greatly. Barbie use to gave great quality clothes and accessories now everything is cheaply made.
Not really the worst Barbie.. but worst MyScene doll was the one which you could change the facial expression. They had buttons on the back of their heads and the faces looked like you had pressed your finger on it and it just left that way :D I think it was the Fab Faces line.
I have two of these and they are terrifying 🤣 their faces don’t age well either, one of them has warped and she looks like I’ve just pulled her out of a house fire 🥲
That thing is a nightmare
Even the children will crave to get Old Classic Barbies instead of those plastic trashes
I have too agree with you on all your picks, I can't stand molded on clothing , the fun is changing fashions, and also I gave up on holiday Barbies a long time ago
The confidence to dunk on Bob Mackie, I love it
Joey: The colors are too bright.
Me: *wearing my one green day shirt that's black with ska pants.*
I just remembered one of my Barbie dolls who was a mermaid. I’ve completely forgotten about her, until I saw your video. Haha!
I’ve noticed that when barbie had good quality kids used to play with Barbie’s up until their teens. And the kids today get bored of them when they are like 7.
I would say I definitely agree with most of the dolls on your list, the only one I didn’t agree with is the first holiday Barbie you put on the list, I honestly love the dress. 😊
Are you gonna get more Rainbow High dolls soon? I know you’d love Series 3
When I got the 2013 Holiday Barbie, I was ashamed of that dress she had on and the hair was filled with glue. The 2015 Barbie beach doll is very awful, smh.
OMG I really dislike too when the "clothes" are not removable, or just, not made out of fabric in general
What is with the face on that American Idol doll? Barbie usually has pretty/lovely/gorgeous face sculpts, even the cheap dolls, but that one looks horrible!
They doing barbie dirty these days 😢
I hate the plastic and painted clothes too.
Don't mind the bright colors and I think they're appealing to kids.
As far as I remember Barbies have never had good quality hair though. I had them as a kid in the 90's and with time after the hair was brushed repeatedly it got a rough texture. I also had Sindy dolls and I found them better than Barbie - the body was just as good quality as Barbie's and the hair was better. Sindy's hair would always remain smooth and shiny even after repeated brushing.
American idol barbie was a camp icon for having a broken spine and slenderman limbs, she was giving!!! Honestly id like to see you talk about more cursed dolls like her.
Nearly everything Barbie since 2017 or so looks like a circus.
Happy 1st week of October 1 to you Joey 💙💙💙the holiday Barbie 2021 looks like the 90's face mold, I'm glad that Mattel finally made her hands not bendeble/movable
I think the idea to make a bubble fairy Barbie is very good, but the results aren‘t so good.
I also don’t like those but I know they’re the ones from ages “1 to 3”, it’s kind of a good thing cause it’s painful to see a toddler destroying a cute Barbie, maybe I got traumatized lol cause I didn’t have ANY Barbie as kid in the 90’s, watching all those 3 year olds playing with theirs not even noticing their beautiful hair was just so so painful 😥 lol, so these days I see these hard plastic outfit Barbies, and I’m like well, it makes sense it’s for toddlers now !!! At least they designed Barbies for babies now !!! I’m still mad at the new quality hair though, I got my 1st Barbie as an adult 3 years ago and I was shocked with the tiny hair, it honestly feels like a scam but I’m still buying them every week 😱😱 I can’t stop even if I’m so pissed about the hair
