It's sad how you can clearly see the quality start to go downhill in the 2010s and slowly but surely setting the bar in hell in the 2020s. The 80s and 90s dolls were adorable and wholesome and the 00s were absolutely stunning. But the newer dolls are just so, so cheap that it's obvious they're cutting corners everywhere. Intricate hairstyle are gone, the materials look cheap, the designs are very simplistic and there are little to no accessories. Shame.
You did a great job on this video and Congrats on acquiring the entire collection to date (even the ones that you don't really care for 😂). Happy Holidays to you and your family!
Owning a 1992 Holiday Barbie was one of my biggest dreams when I was a child... Buying her in a store was impossible so my talented dad painted her for me on cardboard... I was happy as if it was a real one... Maybe there are some prettier ones than her, but this one will remain the peak of my childhood dreams
My favorite is 1994, because I've cosplayed her and I feel like now we have a special connection. But without that, I think it would be 1996. She's iconic.
I wanted to say, I started collecting dolls this year (I have been subscribed to you for years because I have always loved Barbie) and I want to thank you for helping to make me more excited to collect dolls but your collection definitely filled that Barbie gap in my life when I didn't collect. Hope you have a lovely Christmas 🎄🎄🌸🌸
The 1990 doll is quintessential Barbie. Like she’s not just an amazing holiday Barbie but one of the best Barbie’s in general. She is the Barbie I think of when someone says her name. Big dress, big hair, big makeup and PINKKK 💖💕 I also LOVE the Holiday Barbie from my birth year 1998 and 1995 as well because I got her for Christmas one year, both are so so pretty 🩷
I had the 1989 Holiday Barbie and it was a highlight for me as a kid. Very fond memories of her with the white fluffy and hair piece, just peak Barbie for me.
I love them all up intil 2003, then I think I only like a few…the 90s with Superstar face are definitely my favs, it’s not just the stunning face but also the hair and the over the top designs 😍 Thank you for sharing all the dolls with us! ❤
My favorite is 1989. The second one. My grandmother bought her for me. She's special to me. I have most of these dolls but the quality has gone down. 2020 was the worst. A few of my dolls are African American because I thought they looked better and last years doll I got was the Asian doll. She is beautiful. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
❤This was 🤩 Joey! I think you may have inadvertently boosted holiday Barbie sales 😂 I really don't think I've seen 2010 before, how strange. I knew about the Mackie color variants but didn't know they came from Sears. I also like the reference to the shoes because I always run into an issue where I can't remember which were the original shoes for some dolls.
What a great presentation! It was obvious a lot of work went into that video.. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and that we will see a lot more of you next year!🎉
I have 1991-2014 dolls. I completely agree with a lot of your opinions about each one. The 2010’s brought on such cheap design decisions with the dolls. It’s really a shame, I still collect the hallmark ornaments every year. 2003 is my favourite doll but I keep mine in the box so I had no idea the dress doesn’t finish at the back! Lol. Merry Christmas
I got 1990 at an antique store a year and a half ago, still in the box. One of my favorite dolls to display. 1991 is an icon though. /edit/ I need 2006, lol I would put 2017 on my Christmas tree.
2019 is underrated. I think the candy cane dress is kind of fun. 2014 was the worst when she came out and she still is. I miss when we got winter themed Barbies too, not just holiday ones. Some of the winter dolls were better than the holiday dolls imo.
This sent me back to my childhood! I got the 2010 holiday Barbie as my first one, I don’t have it anymore as it’s the only one I took out of the box but I have 2011 through like 2015 and still love them
This is goals..well done!That glitter tulle on the first Barbie is iconic itself! N My gosh 1990 is stunning..very pink and 90s! A poll to vote our favorite would be fun!
I love an of the early holiday Barbies. I would love to get the early ones, especially the ones with the green dresses (that's my favorite color!) and get the 2015 and 2017 Barbies for my daughters' birth years!
8:37 OMG a few days after watching this video, I actually found a 1995 Holiday Barbie at a local thrift store! She was still attached to the cardboard (altho the rest of the box was gone lol) I really considered buying her, bc not only is she one of my fav holiday dolls, its also my birth year! BUT, her hair was a mess, and she was missing 2 holly sequins from her hood. Im not a serious collector and I already had a pile of stuff to buy, so I decided to leave her. Writing this, Im starting to regret it, but hopefully a little girl was able to get it :^) Lord knows they deserve nicer dolls than the current play line Barbies lol
Thank you so much for making this video and showing each Barbie so well!! I almost passed up on some of the early 90’s ones in a lot from a seller bc I wasn’t sure on the hair quality😅
I remember seeing alot of them in my local Kmart growing up. You said about the one in the pink puffy dress looks like Glinda well the 2003 one looks like the Once Upon a Time Glinda in that white dress and coat. I encourage you to look up a picture of Glinda from Once and tell me they didn't take inspiration for the look from the 2003 holiday Barbie. I have always loved the ones in the velvet dresses, velvet to me just feels like holidays.
Definitely 2003, 2016 royal blue version doll is stunning I mean doll face...dress is just...ok (I wish you got the other two dolls to show) and 2018 are my favourite. By the way thank you for the video, well done.
The 2010’s dolls definitely lost a lot of creativity in their designs to me, but I like that they at least tried to bring back some spunk with the 2017 doll
See, 1996 has a soft spot in my heart as she was the first in my collection and I live the Victorian look. Love 2004 as well and I do have both the green and red. I just ordered my 2024 doll and I’ll have the redhead, too! I with the earrings and shoes were more classic to better go with the dress but that she has red hair and freckles…. How cute! Maybe she’s Scottish? At least they are maybe redeeming these dolls from 2020? Why are they so cheap now? So sad. We went from gorgeous velvet and beads and embroidery to basically metallic paper. And the boxes used to have hard plastic tops and bottoms so you were meant to display them in the box. Well, 2007 is next on my list. I agree she’s so cute and I think she could have rocked some ankle boots.
2003 is giving Jadis/White Witch and I love her for that. I double checked to see if maybe they were riding the coattails of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe but no the movie released in 2005.
My favourite outfits are the 1989 white with fur, the 1992 silver with beads, the 1994 (my birth year!) gold with white fur and holly and the 1998 black velvet with the fuschia wrap. 80s and 90s Barbie is my favourite, then again she is the one I used to play with as a very lucky child who inherited all of her older cousins' and sister's dolls :)
Some of these Barbie’s have amazing makeup, some that I would wear tbh. I would love to see a video of your favorite Barbie makeup looks of all time if you don’t have one already.
I've got about 18 Holiday Barbies, mostly from the 80s and 90s. I've got them.all displayed around my living room as decor right now, along with a small silver tree covered in Barbie Hallmark ornaments. I've thrifted everything locally. I found the ornaments all at once this past July, for $5 each! 🔥🌞☃️🎄💋❄️👑❤️✨
@Barbie_Millenium. It's a pity you are not able to use your brains in a proper way before you decide to leave a comment of this sort by here. It seems you did not understand what he said. And you do think you wrote a genius comment.
Hi Joey Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you and your family in 2025 , I'm so happy I bought yesterday the 1970 something Sun Set Malibu Francie Doll with the Casey face mold made in 1966 made in Japan for $5 instead of waiting till January 2 2025 she is so beautiful she does have a injury 🤕 her left leg knee doesn't bend and snap her right leg knee does bend and snap I knew it was like that and I noticed her feet were s little chewed on but still great shape probably the kid who owned her before me had a cat that got a hold of her and she has a bit of a hair cut also by the kid just a little I love 💕😍 her
@@Aurora-qn2dxStella too! 😄 It will be so good if Joey make some content about all of the different companies that made Winx dolls. From Giochii and Mattel to Jacks and Witty.
It's sad how you can clearly see the quality start to go downhill in the 2010s and slowly but surely setting the bar in hell in the 2020s.

Intricate hairstyle are gone, the materials look cheap, the designs are very simplistic and there are little to no accessories. Shame.
No details either
All the Barbies have dropped in quality unfortunatly and this holiday line is the clearest proof.
Went from detailed glam to boring and cheap with a side of AI
You did a great job on this video and Congrats on acquiring the entire collection to date (even the ones that you don't really care for 😂). Happy Holidays to you and your family!
I agree!
🧡I would love to see a Ginger Holiday Barbie in a Green Gown!!!💚
Yes and with Diva/Midge sculpt 1985 or Teen Skipper sculpt 1995 :)
I love watching all dolls without box it’s like a dream 😊
The early holiday barbies had so much pageantry. 1990 is my favorite 💖
35:07 "a horrible doll for a horrible year" 🤣💯
Ugh! I cringed when Joey arrived to show the Holiday Barbie dolls of the early 2020s.
Owning a 1992 Holiday Barbie was one of my biggest dreams when I was a child... Buying her in a store was impossible so my talented dad painted her for me on cardboard... I was happy as if it was a real one... Maybe there are some prettier ones than her, but this one will remain the peak of my childhood dreams
This is actually very sweet!!
I love when Barbie has purple eyes. The 1990 pink barbiecore is my personal fave
All of these also came out as ornaments in the 90s with the same outfits. My sister and I played with them like toys
My Sister got those ornaments every year from her godmother. I remember being super jealous. lol
Omg someone else who played with their ornaments! Me and my sister did that too 😭
I had '98, '99, '00 and '01 but sadly lost them all moving one year 😢 but I did recently purchase '24 holiday Barbie ❤
Happy holidays 🎄
The dress from 1990, i bought in a second hand store when I was little. I didn't know it was a Holiday Barbie, but I loved it 🥰 ❤
The 1992 silver with holographic sequins Holiday Barbie is my absolute favourite.
That was 1999, 2004, and 2005.
8:15 I have the 1994 Holiday Barbie doll, ornament, and stocking hook
I think 1996 is underrated.. that fur and velvet looks very rich and pretty.
Yes, I absolutely love her 🤷♥️
Your nail polish looks so nice! That’s a beautiful color!
Ew - it reminds me of the Grinch.
Yes, very pretty.
@@laureencriss8220Only grinch here is you with that attitude
@@KingOfGaymes Because it's the color of the Grinch? It is. To me, it's gross. You have your opinion, I have mine.
My favorite Holiday Barbie is 2009! I just love how gorgeous she is.
Thanks for another great video! I love candy cane Barbie too, she's so creative and cute.
The oldest ones are spectacular 🤩
When you see these you really wonder for what exactly DESIGNERS at Mattel got paid in the last 15 years
My favorite is 1994, because I've cosplayed her and I feel like now we have a special connection. But without that, I think it would be 1996. She's iconic.
I wanted to say, I started collecting dolls this year (I have been subscribed to you for years because I have always loved Barbie) and I want to thank you for helping to make me more excited to collect dolls but your collection definitely filled that Barbie gap in my life when I didn't collect. Hope you have a lovely Christmas 🎄🎄🌸🌸
I had the 1988 holiday one for 49 cents at Goodwill 2 years ago.
Others I had were the 89', 91',93',and 99' Holiday Barbies.
The 1990 doll is quintessential Barbie. Like she’s not just an amazing holiday Barbie but one of the best Barbie’s in general. She is the Barbie I think of when someone says her name. Big dress, big hair, big makeup and PINKKK 💖💕

love 😍the 1991 Barbie, the velvety gown and beaded/sequin bodice is gorgeous,
what a fabulous collection you have, thankyou for sharing😊
90s and early 00s had the best holiday dolls❤🎉
7:23 Wow, she hawe i little bow-knot in her shoes so cute
My mom and I have the AA version of 2004. Stunning doll!🙌🏾
The face on the 99 millennium Barbie is stunning she has a smirk look on her face i love
Love seeing all the Holiday Barbie’s! I have twelve of them. My favorites are 2009 Pink, 2008 Silver, 2002 Red Velvet 😊 Great video! 👍😀
merry christmas joey🎄🎄🎄
I had the 1989 Holiday Barbie and it was a highlight for me as a kid. Very fond memories of her with the white fluffy and hair piece, just peak Barbie for me.
I got the 1991 one for Christmas in 1991 and I was DYING I loved her so much! ❤

My little sister's school gave her some 90s' holiday Barbies and I thought they were so pretty!
Dang I wish I went to that school xD
1990 and 1998 are my favourites. Love the hot pink. Thank you for showing us your treasures. Merry Christmas!
What a great presentation! It was obvious a lot of work went into that video.. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and that we will see a lot more of you next year!🎉
That 2006 Barbie reminds me of Slavic dolls with the crown, dark colour and the embroidery.
I have 1991-2014 dolls. I completely agree with a lot of your opinions about each one. The 2010’s brought on such cheap design decisions with the dolls. It’s really a shame, I still collect the hallmark ornaments every year. 2003 is my favourite doll but I keep mine in the box so I had no idea the dress doesn’t finish at the back! Lol.

I always thought all the modern Barbie’s look the same but after this video I realized that each design nowadays is still fairly different and unique
This sent me back to my childhood! I got the 2010 holiday Barbie as my first one, I don’t have it anymore as it’s the only one I took out of the box but I have 2011 through like 2015 and still love them

I love the 2019 Candy Cane Holiday Barbie
The transition from 2004 to 2005, with you just silently holding the Bob Mackie doll and looking into the camera, made me burst out laughing!!!
I like this kind of video 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄 Merry Christmas 🎄
8:37 OMG a few days after watching this video, I actually found a 1995 Holiday Barbie at a local thrift store!

My favorite are the 80s and 90s , my childhood
I love the Generation face mold
2000 Doll
This was such a wonderful overview of all the Holiday Barbies!! Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happiest New Year!!
Thank you so much for making this video and showing each Barbie so well!! I almost passed up on some of the early 90’s ones in a lot from a seller bc I wasn’t sure on the hair quality😅

i think 2014, 2015, and 2016 are all super cute
some feel like play dolls where others are definitely display/ collectibles
I just purchased 1990 off of ebay yesterday I just had to haha. She is so extra, ❤ it!!!! 😁
The 2010’s dolls definitely lost a lot of creativity in their designs to me, but I like that they at least tried to bring back some spunk with the 2017 doll
Merry Christmas Joey ❄️☃️

Merry Christmas Joey❤
I love all the 90s but also, unpopular opinion 2005s was beautiful!! Very ice queen vibez
Let's talk about your nails for a moment! They're amazing and this colour compliments your skintone ❤🔥❤🔥
I love 2020 Barbie
I love the 98 holiday Barbie Doll beautiful Doll black and hot pink collar
2003 is giving Jadis/White Witch and I love her for that. I double checked to see if maybe they were riding the coattails of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe but no the movie released in 2005.

The 96 Barbie is beautiful looks like she is going out yes i agree a bit underwhelming the gold sounds like crackling crepe paper
I have the 97 brunette holiday Barbie Doll
Wow 2017 really impressed me
11:50 "Actually has brown eyes"... *while showing green eyes* 😁😁

Believe it or not but the first one of your videos I ever watched was the first holiday Barbie video you did ❤
2009 was so cute with the pink, the face makeup was pretty damn heavy but she is my favorite
I have a few of these still in their boxes and a bunch of the christmas ornaments. My grandmother would but them for us. I wonder why she stopped?
I want 2024 Holiday Barbie
