I’m so happy I wasn’t the only one loving the Generation Girls in that awkward age when you are too old to love dolls as a kid but too young for it to just be a harmless quirk. They are so exquisite, and since I was like 14 when I got them, not destroyed. Well, except Lara, who I may or may not have carried everywhere because she reminded me of my first crush.
I started collecting a year ago and I made a commitment to start with the 90’s girls. I can’t get enough of them! I have so many good memories playing with them
I love that you picked dolls from your childhood so we could hear about the memories attached to them! I agree, I would love to go back to the Barbie aisle in Toys R Us so much!
I used to own the Chelsea Generation Girl doll and I loved her!! I'm so sad that I got rid of my old barbies now that I've started collecting again :( I swear the quality was amazing back then!
Like you there are many of us who got rid of some childhood dolls which we all regret so badly 🥲😭, But! even more special when you get them back once again 🥰💖
I am a child and I love my barbies though I am 11. Don't feel bad for something that you did before. It only makes it worse and you will regret it forever. Keep collecting Barbie dolls and you will find better ones.
I started collecting again in 1998 and the quality of the dolls then was AMAZONG! Beautiful Fashion Avenue clothes as well, I wish Mattel would bring the clothing like back!
I really enjoyed this watching this! All the Barbies are awesome! Personally I would also add Movin Groovin Barbie from 1997. Her shoes are so cute and matched her 90's look.
I got all those nostalgic feels from this video! I was born in -87 and these dolls were my life! I had Hollywood Barbie (and Ken - heeey, he was cute!!) And I was obsessed with the Generation Girls when they came out (it's interesting that in Sweden, most of the names stayed the same in this line, but not for you, you'd think it would be the same in Europe). I never had Totally hair Barbie but she's iconic for sure!! Thank you for a wonderful video 💗💗💗
Ohh I loved this so much! and I soooo remember those Toys R Us isles. They were double sided filled with Barbie merchandise. Those were the days... Totally Hair Barbie is one of my favorites. Also Pretty Surprise Barbie, Strollin' Fun Barbie and Kelly and Dr Barbie. I wish I had them all
I can't believe you just mentioned the Generation Girls line in this video!! I found lots of them in their "room version" yesterday on a small town toy store and I got Marissa, but they also had Barbie and Nichelle! That really was an unexpected surprise! I loved this video, it was so entertaining to see all those Barbie dolls brand new in their boxes ^^
😊💖🎀 Thanks hon!! And what luck you had finding these gems over there!! Those rooms had soooo much stuff, I so need that Mari room! Didn’t she come with like a playstation or some kind of console? 😍💖
@@Barbination That was Mariko's room! I got Marissa/Ana's, the latina of the group. They really weren't too creative when they named them hahaa, they sound so similar! I hope you can find her soon!
You hit this list dead on! Totally Hair Barbie IS the 90s. I also love the brunette Totally hair Teresa! I love them with that crimped hair. I’d love to go back in time and see all those pink boxes down the aisles too. I’m a 80s girl and those pink boxes just lit my eyes up! Glitter Hair Barbie was another of my 90s favorites. Love your videos!!!
Loved the video. My answers are similar. I love the 90s birthday Barbies and generation girl. I think this is it for the character names in the US? Generation Girl: Barbie (Film) Nichelle (Model) Tori (Sports) Chelsie (Music) Lara (Painting) Ana (Sports) Mari (Dance Party-Wave 2) Blaine (Dance Party-Wave 2) They recently have gone up in popularity in the second hand market.
The collections I especially loved were the Beyond Pink collection from 1998 (ie Barbie and her friends had a rock band), and Olympic Skater Barbie, also 1998.
Your way of talking about Barbie just amazing!! Love it! I'm 40 and I've just bought my first Barbie! 🙈 Dreams come true!!! Best of luck to you and your channel! 🎉
What a great trip back to the nineties!! I started collecting seriously in the nineties, remember these dolls from the great filled toy isles here in The Netherlands... I gave a lot of my unboxed dolls to my nieces from this era but still have some boxed Teen Talk dolls in different languages in my collection and I adored the Generation Girls Line!!! 💜💜
I am obsessed with Teresa Hollywood hair too. I have the same doll and she is my all time favourite. I love her even more than Barbie. The best doll ever, period.
Comment #2! Okay, so my obsession was the Generation Girls, the last dolls I ever purchased as a teenager. 😩😭😭 (Before I allowed society to tell me I was too old for dolls.) I read all the chapter books and dreamed that would be my teenage life since I lived by New York City. (This video is everything, by the way. All the nostalgia.) Anyway! Names here in the United States were: Barbie, Nichelle, Lara, Ana, Tori, Chelsie. Those are the first generation ones. Then they got rid of Chelsie and Ana and the magazine said "Meet our NEW friends!" Blaine and Mari. I was SO OFFENDED for Chelsie and Ana being cut out of the friend group and didn't buy any Barbies ever again. 🤣🤣 Well, until adulthood. 🛍
Same, they were the last Barbie’s I got, but I played and played with them and loved them! Each of my siblings (family of 4 girls) got one, and my spoiled self got the artist and the sports girl. I am grateful to my parents to this day!
Years ago, I found two Birthday Barbie’s secondhand - one from 1993 and 1994. I kept the 94 one, while I gave the other to a close friend. I like to call them Friendship Barbies for this reason. 😊
😌💖 ahhh could not agree more, I also wish I still had them all! Getting those dolls back in your hands is the best part of being a doll collector! 🧸😭💖✨
I recently subscribed and I'm watching some of your old videos. I love everything about your channel. I love your style of pastels it looks so fresh and airy its like walking on a billowy cloud with a rainbow coming through it, it is the best way I can describe it. I also love your sense of humour and content. The 80's and 90's were my haday so I can relate to alot of the barbie fashions. You really touched my heart at the end when you were reminicsing about walking down that hugh aisle with those tall shevles of barbies. We had a department store in my town called Mervyn's and my mother would allow me go in the toy section while she shopped and that is exactly what i use to do. I would walk down staring at each doll I wanted for Christmas and my birthday. I felt like I was in my own little barbie world. What you said really hit home and it made me tear up. If anyone else has this passion about barbie you will understand this feeling and I totally do. I know that came from the heart because i saw you get a bit emotional and I just want say thank you for sharing your childhood memories.
Aahh thank you Kim 💖 So nice we get to share these stories with each other. I used to think I was the only one haha and then there was social media! Whoaa 🤩💖 Thank you so much for the kind words sweetheart!
You are so fab and lovely with your reviews and doll talk, love it! I agree that 90s Barbies (and also early-mid 00s) were The Best. Totally get it when you get a super nice Barbie doll as a 5-6yo and it gets totally destroyed (ie. Jewel Hair Mermaid for me) LOL.
Aside from all the beauties you showcased. I loved Rappin Rockin Barbie’s urban aesthetics, the Y2K inspired Beyond Pink line, Earring Magic Barbie for their day-glo pleather hoochie dresses lol 🙈 which I found very daring for a play line doll and Dance Moves Barbie for the articulation and cute shimmery club wear looks. Those glitter suspenders were so camp. Special shout out to the first line of Teen Skipper dolls as well.
Ohhhh yes, yes and YES! I could literally go on and on forever with these dolls! All were so iconic and fab! 💖 Earring magic and dance moves AHHH!! I so need Dance Moves back in my life!! 😇💖✌🏻✨ Viva la 90s!
Totally hair Barbie was my first ever Barbie and my Dad brought her for me. I will never forget I was sitting on the couch and I was really depressed about something. Than my Dad came home with her and surprised me, my childhood world changed :') "This is Barbie" this is so true.
Hello - These editions were very exciting each and every time. We would get the box inserts alerting us of the others to come and eagerly look out for them. A special note: the Marina was our international (Mattel termed European) edition of Kira. The same figure, just different boxes. A lovely presentation reminding us of how different all the make-up was in each case. Enjoy ...
Oh hier word ik helemaal blij van zo tof je kanaal gevonden te hebben en hoe leuk dat je Nederlands bent! Ben bezig mijn childhood doll collection aan het uit te breiden dus dit geeft me helemaal zin om verder te gaan zoeken super leuke video🥰
My mom gave away 90% of my Barbie collection along with ALL my other toys: OG tiny Polly Pockets including BlueBird Pollyville, Legos with rare sets, 4inch dolls, and 8/9inch dolls. I moved out of state with my mom after my parents split and she went back to the house to sell and I had left ALL my toys behind. I was 16 and I know she thought I didn't need them, but I loved them all. I took care of all my toys and enjoyed looking at them every few months. I tried to keep calm when she came home and told me, but I cried that night. I still get sad about it at 34 🥺 Fun fact: I specifically got the Chelsea Generation doll so she could be Mallory from the Babysitters Club when I played those storylines 🙂
Nooooo that’s so heartbreaking! 😮💔 ever thought of buying back some of those childhood memories though? 😇 Maybe in a yard sale, ebay or mercari ✨ you’d be surprised what you may find!
And I'm early yet again! Woohoo! I think I'm gonna watch this while cooking dinner. The dolls from that time were never meant to be kept in boxes for more than like a couple of years at most. At that point the plastics starts to deteriorate and that's why they become sticky (with plasticisers that are most likely severely hormone disruptive). The best thing to do is to "air out" the doll if you insist on keeping it in the original box. I would love to see a top 10 90's dolls you didn't have as a child but that you own and love nowadays.
From your top 10 my favorites are your # 1, 3 and 6 ❤ One of my super favorite from the 90s is Barbie Cut and Style, particularly the one with brown hair and green outfit 🤩 my cousin used to have it as a child and I think I have always loved her more than she did. Such a joy when as an adult I could finally purchase her 😊
I recently got a "slumber Party" barbie, brand new....i also got the "bed time" barbie (which was one of my absolute favorites as a kid), "pretty dreams" barbie & "dance & twirl" barbie (all in box). I just started my collections of getting my fav childhood ones back
Oh that is just so fun!! 🥰💖 Bedtime Barbie is also still high on my wish list! I actually didn’t have her as a little kid, but boy did I envy the ones who did have her 🙈💖
O M G YOUR LIST IS A 90s DREAM... 💗💗💗 PS1. I also wish I could storm through a 90s Barbie Aisle at least once now 😭 PS2. I literally cried (half laughter, half sad cry) when Birthday Barbie fell... (she’s also my fav 🙈) The whole vid was EVERYTHING 🎀💗😭
whaha yeah that was A MOMENT there 😅 had me giggling when I was editing it😆 Oh that Aisle! 🎀💖⭐️ Can you see it now Marina? ALL PINK, THE LOGO, ENDLESSLY LONG, FILLED WITH SUPERSTAR FABULOSITY 💭💫🎀
Thank you for this!! I agree totally hair Barbie was the ultimate!! I also had totally hair Ken ugh I miss my childhood. Does anyone miss the Shaving Ken?
Totally Hair and Hollywood hair are my top 2. I still have my "Hawaii" Skipper and once had Teresa, but this line was called Tropical Splash where I'm from.
In had the swimsuit dolls! We didn't have much money so we always got a swimsuit doll and an outfit. 💕 I probably would have rollerblading Barbie, a ballet barbie and the Midge Wedding set on my top ten childhood doll list. This makes me want to recollect my childhood dolls.
I have the entire set of Hula Hair dolls. I LOVE the hair. I have the entire set of Generation dolls as well. I had both waves of the dolls but missed getting the third wave. Finances prevented me from doing so. I also have Hollywood Hair Barbie. Again finances prevented me from getting the entire set. I bought the Workin' Out Barbie but I never saw the Teresa or Christie until years later and now they are waaaaay beyond my budget. 🙂And I'm proud to say I have the original Totally Hair Barbie. I worked in the toy department of a retail store and it was wonderful seeing all the new Barbie's that came out through the 90's. I started building my collection in 1995 with the Happy Holidays Barbie. I had given away all my dolls when I was in my early twenties because everyone said (friends and family).that I needed to 'grow up'. I regretted it for years. Until '95. I still got the comments but I ignored them. I was even able to find the doll my mom gave for Christmas when I was 6. 🙂. A lot of the dolls like Midge, Christie, Kira, and Teresa would come one in a box with Barbie being the most. I don't know if that's changed but it was that way when I was working retail.
I was much older than you 😉 but I remember Tee Talk Barbie and the stir she caused with that phrase "Math class is hard!" - folks here in the U.S. were upset since that seemed to propagate a bad stereotype about girls and math. I was taking a very advanced theoretical algebra class at the time, so that became our catchphrase 😂
I recently found a hula hair Theresa doll at the thrift store and her hair was mess. It took me awhile to get it to look good. I was just so happy that it had not been cut.
That very first part of the video threw me so far back into my childhood?? Was that the music from the work out barbie cassette?? I just remember hearing it.. I KNOW me and my sisters had one of these...!
I just about died when I heard the workin out Barbie song! I played it ALL THE TIME and my mom got so tired of hearing it in the house and car lol she ended up buying me a cassette player lol what a great time to be alive..💖😭
I LOVE the video so much it took me on a memory lane travel, I love barbie so much, I buy Generation Girl but I only got barbie, Tory and Lara. I would like to get Totaly hair barbie, these is one of your best video, I agree that the prettiest Birthday barbie is the one you got.
Another great video. You must have really awesome parents. My parents barely bought me any Barbies when I was little and they would have never bought any for my brother. Speaking of brothers, the few Barbies I did have always got tortured by mine so they were bald and missing limbs. Lol
whaha 😅 I have two older brothers so this is relatable! I’ve lost some girls to their reign of terror aswell 🙈 And yeh, my parents are awesome people gotta admit, wanting dolls was never a problem 😭💖 i’m still so grateful for my childhood because of them!
These are nice choices its familiar the tropical suntan barbie was usually in stock at any store. My collection was only a few but recently i got a few i owned as a kid Paint N Dazzle Midge was tricky because i searched under puffy paint barbie i was 10.
I loved this but I have to say Cut and Style Barbie was one of my all time favorites that being said for the Barbie movie I either want to go as Cut and style Christie or Working out Christie♥️
Great video! You have a wonderful sense of humor. (Doll down! 😆) This brings back memories. I am ancient compared to you. I was born the same year as Ken, and he was born two years after Barbie. Eeek! I do still have some of my old dolls-a swimsuit Barbie, Stacey with the red flip, my bald hair color change Barbie, Casey with the green ear, Truly Scrumptious based on a movie character in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Skipper with loose legs, and…a Tammie doll that I converted into Tommy because my mother would never get me a “man doll”-in other words, Ken. So I had to improvise. I had a trans doll wayyyyy before I understood the concept. I got heavily into doll collecting again from the mid90s through the early 2000s, and I remember nearly all of the dolls you showed from that time. But my personal all-time fave is the Mackie face. Some people think the face looks snooty, but I don’t care. I love all the dolls with that breathtaking face!!!! Keep up the great job. You are a happy part of my online time. 😁
Aahhh this was so fun to read! 💖 Thank you so much! You know i’m actually kinda jealous that you’ve seen so many dolls in all kinds of eras! 🥰 and being and adult collector in the 90s man… best era to have been a collector, the treasures you must have 😲💖🙏🏻✨ so awesome! Haha you’ve got a true OOAK Tommy! 😅💖 And Mackie is also one of my favs, some of the prettiest dolls have that face! Glad you’re enjoying my content and till next time!! 🙋🏼♂️💖✨
Love the video sooooo much!!! My favorite 90's Barbie has got to be Cut and Style 1994 redhead, she was my first ever barbie and I have like three of her including one I recently rerooted😄 #2 Sparkle Beach Barbie 💗💗💗 #3 would be Tooth Fairy purple and pink version #4 would be Tooth Fairy blue and pink version #5 would have to be Flower Fun #6 would have to be Hula Hair! #7 would be Petty Hearts Barbie #8 would be princess Barbie 1998 #9 glitter hair Barbie And lastly #10 would be Talking Glinda Barbie 1999 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
My fav barbie I ever loved has my wheelchair Becky my grandmom gave each of my sisters and I from Christmas 1996. I played with her so much that one of the wheels fell out of her chair and my dad had to super glue it so it can't move anymore. When I was diagnosed of scoliosis when I was 13 whiched I still had my barbies at that time, she did kinda comfort me in a different way like how she was made different too, I did had her on my dresser for a while (before I had my surgery at 16) my dad decided to sell all our dolls and the dream house on Ebay to get out of tax debt on our house. I did had to sacrifice to sell her but maybe one day I would buy her again.
I had or had one of the dolls in the series that you shared. Not all of them, but quite a few. I have the same birthday doll I got when I was little. Unfortunately she is in rough shape. Hula hair Teresa, Hollywood hair skipper, winter sports barbie, jewel beach barbie and ken, just to name a few. I wish I still had them or they were in better condition. I have started trying to locate childhood favorites but it’s hard on some of these.
I got Laura the artist when I was 24 I was collecting Barbies and still do I'm almost 47 but I love Laura from generation girl because I'm an artist too all of them were adorable I think one of my favorite Barbies from the late 90s early 2000s are the butterfly art Barbies which I still have two of them, and I can't remember the name of the Barbie but I had her as well the one that had the twistable waist Jewel Barbie or something she was so badass and I still collect Barbies I'm actually started a lightweight OMG surprise collection I don't have very many dolls but I love them all
ooo wow, I also have (had) 3 Barbies from your list. slumber party barbie is probably still with my parents. I also had sun sensation, and of course totally hair barbie! Hollywood Hair Barbie unfortunately not, I looked with my mother at the time, but unfortunately it was no longer available.
@@Barbination ja geweldig! Ik was echt een barbie meisje. Geboren in 1985, dus mijn jeugd was midden in de barbie tijdperk! De barbie wand bij intertoys.... hemels! 🤩😍
Gotta be Hollywood Hair Teresa for me. Her little orange outfit and her long light brown hair. And Teresa is my fave doll anyway! I managed to get her unboxed a while back. As you know, it's not easy/impossible to find her boxed in Europe.
Teen Talk Barbie was quite the scandal here in the US. People were upset because they felt it discouraged girls from pursuing STEM careers. And now? Our girl is a astronomer and scientist. How far we have come. Totally Hair Barbie's dress was inspired by designer Emilio Pucci. His designs and prints were big in the 60's.
Wow! that’s amazing! 👏🏻💖 haha yeah who’s upset now right? 😅 Thanks for the info btw! I didn’t know that.. always happy to learn some new Barbie facts 😇💖👏🏻
90s were seriously the best decade ever
Like, SERIOUSLY 😅💖 haha
I’m so happy I wasn’t the only one loving the Generation Girls in that awkward age when you are too old to love dolls as a kid but too young for it to just be a harmless quirk. They are so exquisite, and since I was like 14 when I got them, not destroyed. Well, except Lara, who I may or may not have carried everywhere because she reminded me of my first crush.
😆🩷🙏🏻 haha aahhh I KNOW RIGHT!!
I started collecting a year ago and I made a commitment to start with the 90’s girls. I can’t get enough of them! I have so many good memories playing with them
Ah NOTHING can top the 90s Barbie era! 🥹🩷🫶🏻

IKR! 😭🙏🏻💖

Ooooohhhh how I wish I could travel back in time and see those 90s shelves again! 😍💖 Indeed the quality is impeccable from that era! AH 😌💖
I really enjoyed this watching this! All the Barbies are awesome! Personally I would also add Movin Groovin Barbie from 1997. Her shoes are so cute and matched her 90's look.

One of my all-time favourite Barbies is Barbie as Rapunzel doll from 2002 I love her. 💗💗
🥰🩷🙌🏻
Honestly they should have used the same animation that they use in the commercials to make Barbie movies....it would have been phenomenal😍😍
AGREED! 💖☺️👏🏻
90s girls are my life! I'm glad that I could collect them again as a adult collecter and yesss it was the golden era! Loving this video as always🥰🤗
💖💖💖 Thanks dear!! 90s girls always brighten up my day!
Loved the video. My answers are similar. I love the 90s birthday Barbies and generation girl.
I think this is it for the character names in the US?
Generation Girl:
Barbie (Film)
Nichelle (Model)
Tori (Sports)
Chelsie (Music)
Lara (Painting)
Ana (Sports)
Mari (Dance Party-Wave 2)
Blaine (Dance Party-Wave 2)
They recently have gone up in popularity in the second hand market.
Ah thanks for this info! 🙋🏼♂️💖✨
I was 5 in 1999 and that generation girl ad just unlocked some deeply hidden memories lol. Lovely video x
Nice! 😇💖 Glad to make that happen haha, Thank you! 🙋🏼♂️💖✨
Slumber party Barbie!! Oh my goodness, I adored her so much ❤️❤️❤️
🥰💖✨ I always wanted a slumber party like that haha!

What a great trip back to the nineties!! I started collecting seriously in the nineties, remember these dolls from the great filled toy isles here in The Netherlands...

My best Barbie memory growing up is getting hula hair Teresa. My all time fav. The Colours on her were the absolute best! And so much tinsel!!!!
Ah what a legend she is indeed! 😍✨
I love this episode, 💕✨ I’ve watched it several times and it gives me such fond memories of my childhood 🥰
🥹🩷🙏🏻 Thank you so much!
I got the 1990 birthday barbie for my 3rd birthday & still have her ❤ she’s one of my favorite memories

Wow...my sister gave me Hollywood Hair Theresa as a gift a few years ago. She is out of the box, but I didn´t know she was so rare
😌💖 ahhh could not agree more, I also wish I still had them all! Getting those dolls back in your hands is the best part of being a doll collector! 🧸😭💖✨
LOVE 90s Barbies! Generation girl Barbies where one of my favorites ! :D
🥰💖
I am really aiming to star my doll collection some day, and I really loveeee the 90's Barbies, her face is just really beautiful

Ohhhh yes, yes and YES! I could literally go on and on forever with these dolls! All were so iconic and fab! 💖 Earring magic and dance moves AHHH!! I so need Dance Moves back in my life!! 😇💖✌🏻✨ Viva la 90s!
Your videos are so much fun! And you are hilarious. Thanks for making my day, you rock! ☺
🥰💖🙋🏼♂️😅 haha, awesome! Thanks hon!
Totally hair Barbie was my first ever Barbie and my Dad brought her for me. I will never forget I was sitting on the couch and I was really depressed about something. Than my Dad came home with her and surprised me, my childhood world changed :') "This is Barbie" this is so true.
Hello - These editions were very exciting each and every time. We would get the box inserts alerting us of the others to come and eagerly look out for them. A special note: the Marina was our international (Mattel termed European) edition of Kira. The same figure, just different boxes. A lovely presentation reminding us of how different all the make-up was in each case. Enjoy ...
🥰🩷 Love to discover variations in 90s released dolls 🩵
Oh hier word ik helemaal blij van zo tof je kanaal gevonden te hebben en hoe leuk dat je Nederlands bent! Ben bezig mijn childhood doll collection aan het uit te breiden dus dit geeft me helemaal zin om verder te gaan zoeken super leuke video🥰
My mom gave away 90% of my Barbie collection along with ALL my other toys: OG tiny Polly Pockets including BlueBird Pollyville, Legos with rare sets, 4inch dolls, and 8/9inch dolls.
I moved out of state with my mom after my parents split and she went back to the house to sell and I had left ALL my toys behind.
I was 16 and I know she thought I didn't need them, but I loved them all. I took care of all my toys and enjoyed looking at them every few months.
I tried to keep calm when she came home and told me, but I cried that night. I still get sad about it at 34 🥺
Fun fact: I specifically got the Chelsea Generation doll so she could be Mallory from the Babysitters Club when I played those storylines 🙂
Nooooo that’s so heartbreaking! 😮💔 ever thought of buying back some of those childhood memories though? 😇 Maybe in a yard sale, ebay or mercari ✨ you’d be surprised what you may find!
@@Barbination I hope to one day! There's definitely a few Barbies I want to go for and I'd love to get my Polly Pocket village again 🥰
And I'm early yet again! Woohoo! I think I'm gonna watch this while cooking dinner.
The dolls from that time were never meant to be kept in boxes for more than like a couple of years at most. At that point the plastics starts to deteriorate and that's why they become sticky (with plasticisers that are most likely severely hormone disruptive). The best thing to do is to "air out" the doll if you insist on keeping it in the original box.
I would love to see a top 10 90's dolls you didn't have as a child but that you own and love nowadays.
Ooeeeh Great idea!!
And thanks for that info! 🥲 Thanks hon! 🙋🏼♂️💖
go back in the 90s for one day to storm through the toys r us barbie asile !!!! me tooo!!!! me tooo!!!!!
whaha!! 😆💖💖💖💖
From your top 10 my favorites are your # 1, 3 and 6 ❤
One of my super favorite from the 90s is Barbie Cut and Style, particularly the one with brown hair and green outfit 🤩 my cousin used to have it as a child and I think I have always loved her more than she did. Such a joy when as an adult I could finally purchase her 😊
I recently got a "slumber Party" barbie, brand new....i also got the "bed time" barbie (which was one of my absolute favorites as a kid), "pretty dreams" barbie & "dance & twirl" barbie (all in box). I just started my collections of getting my fav childhood ones back
Oh that is just so fun!! 🥰💖 Bedtime Barbie is also still high on my wish list! I actually didn’t have her as a little kid, but boy did I envy the ones who did have her 🙈💖
Love that the birthday Barbie you picked was from my birth year. I need to get her now. :D
☺️🩷✨
Congratulations ... this was a great video and great relaxation for me 🤗 Lots of memories .. Thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed! 🙋🏼♂️💖🙋🏼♂️
Loved your top picks all gorgeous dolls 😍
😊💖✨👏🏻
💖 GEWELDIGE video Arjen! 💖 Die working out Christie! Wauw.... Dat gele pakje staat haar fabulous! 😍😍😍
haha echt heh! 💖✨ Nog steeds zo blij met haar in mijn collectie, thanks meis! 😘
My favorite 90's Barbie doll is the Glam n' Groom Barbie!
Oooooo right! I can remember the Teresa from that line in this blue number! 💖✨ ah!
O M G YOUR LIST IS A 90s DREAM... 💗💗💗
PS1. I also wish I could storm through a 90s Barbie Aisle at least once now 😭
PS2. I literally cried (half laughter, half sad cry) when Birthday Barbie fell... (she’s also my fav 🙈) The whole vid was EVERYTHING 🎀💗😭
whaha yeah that was A MOMENT there 😅 had me giggling when I was editing it😆
Oh that Aisle! 🎀💖⭐️ Can you see it now Marina? ALL PINK, THE LOGO, ENDLESSLY LONG, FILLED WITH SUPERSTAR FABULOSITY 💭💫🎀
Thank you for this!! I agree totally hair Barbie was the ultimate!! I also had totally hair Ken ugh I miss my childhood. Does anyone miss the Shaving Ken?
🥹🩷🙏🏻
Totally Hair and Hollywood hair are my top 2. I still have my "Hawaii" Skipper and once had Teresa, but this line was called Tropical Splash where I'm from.
I saw this later indeed! Tropical splash was either the US or European name.. I don’t know who what where haha ✌🏻😅💖
In had the swimsuit dolls! We didn't have much money so we always got a swimsuit doll and an outfit. 💕 I probably would have rollerblading Barbie, a ballet barbie and the Midge Wedding set on my top ten childhood doll list. This makes me want to recollect my childhood dolls.
aww! These swimsuit girls are so pretty! They got my fantasy flowing as a kid just as much as the other more elaborate dolls ☺️💖
I have the entire set of Hula Hair dolls. I LOVE the hair. I have the entire set of Generation dolls as well. I had both waves of the dolls but missed getting the third wave. Finances prevented me from doing so. I also have Hollywood Hair Barbie. Again finances prevented me from getting the entire set. I bought the Workin' Out Barbie but I never saw the Teresa or Christie until years later and now they are waaaaay beyond my budget. 🙂And I'm proud to say I have the original Totally Hair Barbie. I worked in the toy department of a retail store and it was wonderful seeing all the new Barbie's that came out through the 90's. I started building my collection in 1995 with the Happy Holidays Barbie. I had given away all my dolls when I was in my early twenties because everyone said (friends and family).that I needed to 'grow up'. I regretted it for years. Until '95. I still got the comments but I ignored them. I was even able to find the doll my mom gave for Christmas when I was 6. 🙂. A lot of the dolls like Midge, Christie, Kira, and Teresa would come one in a box with Barbie being the most. I don't know if that's changed but it was that way when I was working retail.
Loved the video! Could you do a early 2000 Top 10 Version?🥰
Oohhh that’s is a great idea! 👏🏻💖 NOTED! 😉
Sindy did the “real girl” commercial not Steffi. And that model was/is actually Dutch. LOVE Sindy ! 💕🥰
OOOH RIIIGGHT!! 😅💖👏🏻 Gosh I loved those commercials! Rewatching them right now 😊✌🏻
I am looking for Bathtub Fun Shelly , Cool Shaving Ken, Gymnastic Whitney , Work it out Theresa !
😍🩷 Hope you find them!!
I had a hula girl barbie number 7, i had a few of the generation girls, and working out barbie! This brought back so many memories! :)
I was much older than you 😉 but I remember Tee Talk Barbie and the stir she caused with that phrase "Math class is hard!" - folks here in the U.S. were upset since that seemed to propagate a bad stereotype about girls and math. I was taking a very advanced theoretical algebra class at the time, so that became our catchphrase 😂
I recently found a hula hair Theresa doll at the thrift store and her hair was mess. It took me awhile to get it to look good. I was just so happy that it had not been cut.
Oeehhh score!!! 💖 and then that moment you fixed her and be like: AH QUEEN, you’ve returned! 🙌🏻✨
If you find that time machine take me with you! I want that whole 90’s Barbie aisle too!❤️🥰
Ah right?! WHAT A DREAM !! 😍🌈😅✨
That very first part of the video threw me so far back into my childhood?? Was that the music from the work out barbie cassette?? I just remember hearing it.. I KNOW me and my sisters had one of these...!
Yes !!! SO ICONIC 💖👏🏻✨
I have a green haired Hollywood ken an early articulated Barbie doll.
I just about died when I heard the workin out Barbie song! I played it ALL THE TIME and my mom got so tired of hearing it in the house and car lol she ended up buying me a cassette player lol what a great time to be alive..💖😭
whahaha Isn’t it?! 😂💖 I also had this on repeat! and still sooo catchy! 😭💖✨
I LOVE the video so much it took me on a memory lane travel, I love barbie so much, I buy Generation Girl but I only got barbie, Tory and Lara. I would like to get Totaly hair barbie, these is one of your best video, I agree that the prettiest Birthday barbie is the one you got.
🥰💖🙋🏼♂️ Thanks honeybee! Totally Hair Barbie is everyone’s fav girl ☺️
Another great video. You must have really awesome parents. My parents barely bought me any Barbies when I was little and they would have never bought any for my brother. Speaking of brothers, the few Barbies I did have always got tortured by mine so they were bald and missing limbs. Lol
whaha 😅 I have two older brothers so this is relatable! I’ve lost some girls to their reign of terror aswell 🙈 And yeh, my parents are awesome people gotta admit, wanting dolls was never a problem 😭💖 i’m still so grateful for my childhood because of them!
These are nice choices its familiar the tropical suntan barbie was usually in stock at any store. My collection was only a few but recently i got a few i owned as a kid Paint N Dazzle Midge was tricky because i searched under puffy paint barbie i was 10.
Paint n Dazzle!! ooh I loved those dolls! 🥰✌🏻 That redhead is going straight to my wishlist! 😌 haha
I forgot about the slumber party Barbie! I had her as a kid!
🥹🩷 she’s the cutest!!
I loved this but I have to say Cut and Style Barbie was one of my all time favorites that being said for the Barbie movie I either want to go as Cut and style Christie or Working out Christie♥️
Looooove workin out Christie!! she’s a 90s legend!
@@Barbination literally my boyfriend got me the Teresa when we first met, you marry a man like that🥰
@@kristalove oh my!! NOW THAT’S a keeper!! 🥰💖
Hi! I just discovered your channel and im in love! I love your videos I look forward to watching more!
🙋🏼♂️💖✨ Welcome!! thank you so much! Enjoy 😄🎀✨
Great video! You have a wonderful sense of humor. (Doll down! 😆) This brings back memories. I am ancient compared to you. I was born the same year as Ken, and he was born two years after Barbie. Eeek!
I do still have some of my old dolls-a swimsuit Barbie, Stacey with the red flip, my bald hair color change Barbie, Casey with the green ear, Truly Scrumptious based on a movie character in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Skipper with loose legs, and…a Tammie doll that I converted into Tommy because my mother would never get me a “man doll”-in other words, Ken. So I had to improvise. I had a trans doll wayyyyy before I understood the concept.
I got heavily into doll collecting again from the mid90s through the early 2000s, and I remember nearly all of the dolls you showed from that time.
But my personal all-time fave is the Mackie face. Some people think the face looks snooty, but I don’t care. I love all the dolls with that breathtaking face!!!!
Keep up the great job. You are a happy part of my online time. 😁
Aahhh this was so fun to read! 💖 Thank you so much! You know i’m actually kinda jealous that you’ve seen so many dolls in all kinds of eras! 🥰 and being and adult collector in the 90s man… best era to have been a collector, the treasures you must have 😲💖🙏🏻✨ so awesome!
Haha you’ve got a true OOAK Tommy! 😅💖
And Mackie is also one of my favs, some of the prettiest dolls have that face!
Glad you’re enjoying my content and till next time!! 🙋🏼♂️💖✨
Love the video sooooo much!!! My favorite 90's Barbie has got to be Cut and Style 1994 redhead, she was my first ever barbie and I have like three of her including one I recently rerooted😄
#2 Sparkle Beach Barbie 💗💗💗
#3 would be Tooth Fairy purple and pink version
#4 would be Tooth Fairy blue and pink version
#5 would have to be Flower Fun
#6 would have to be Hula Hair!
#7 would be Petty Hearts Barbie
#8 would be princess Barbie 1998
#9 glitter hair Barbie
And lastly #10 would be Talking Glinda Barbie 1999 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Yees, I had the brunette cut and style! Loved her 💚💚
Oooeeh right!! See!! so many awesome dolls were made in the 90s, unbelievable 👏🏻💖🎀 and we could probably go on and on forever haha
My fav barbie I ever loved has my wheelchair Becky my grandmom gave each of my sisters and I from Christmas 1996. I played with her so much that one of the wheels fell out of her chair and my dad had to super glue it so it can't move anymore. When I was diagnosed of scoliosis when I was 13 whiched I still had my barbies at that time, she did kinda comfort me in a different way like how she was made different too, I did had her on my dresser for a while (before I had my surgery at 16) my dad decided to sell all our dolls and the dream house on Ebay to get out of tax debt on our house. I did had to sacrifice to sell her but maybe one day I would buy her again.
I love them, I have a few 90’s Barbies and Sindy’s 💕 thanks for sharing
Cute!! ☺️💖🙋🏼♂️✨
Super early! Sitting down, having a juice box in my Barbie room, and getting ready for this epicness. 🎀🛍🍭Favorite!
haha Yay!! 🥰💖 enjoy babe!
I had or had one of the dolls in the series that you shared. Not all of them, but quite a few. I have the same birthday doll I got when I was little. Unfortunately she is in rough shape. Hula hair Teresa, Hollywood hair skipper, winter sports barbie, jewel beach barbie and ken, just to name a few. I wish I still had them or they were in better condition. I have started trying to locate childhood favorites but it’s hard on some of these.
Me two days ago going to Walmart and finding fashionista the one with baby blue hair with stars on her face she’s cute I got her so fast lol 😆
whoaaaa 🥰💖 Is her hair really as bad as people say it is? 🙈
Yess 😞😞😞 Iam going to make a wig got her with her same hair color because it’s baddd
I had all these. ❤🎉 I miss being a little girl in the golden age.
🥹🙏🏻✨
I got Laura the artist when I was 24 I was collecting Barbies and still do I'm almost 47 but I love Laura from generation girl because I'm an artist too all of them were adorable I think one of my favorite Barbies from the late 90s early 2000s are the butterfly art Barbies which I still have two of them, and I can't remember the name of the Barbie but I had her as well the one that had the twistable waist Jewel Barbie or something she was so badass and I still collect Barbies I'm actually started a lightweight OMG surprise collection I don't have very many dolls but I love them all
Awe, just the childhood memories are so fun to read 🥰💖 I think you mean Jewel girl Barbie ^^ gosh can’t believe that’s already 20 years ago!
I have a birthday Barbie she has that exact dress but in a beautiful blue/ green color.
🥰🩷🎀 so pretty!
no dought you are an awesome collection of dolls thanks for sharing, Stay tuned.
🙋🏼♂️😌💖✨ Thank you so much!
ooo wow, I also have (had) 3 Barbies from your list. slumber party barbie is probably still with my parents. I also had sun sensation, and of course totally hair barbie! Hollywood Hair Barbie unfortunately not, I looked with my mother at the time, but unfortunately it was no longer available.
🥹🩷⭐️🙏🏻🎀 These 90s icons are just the best ever right
@@Barbination ja geweldig! Ik was echt een barbie meisje. Geboren in 1985, dus mijn jeugd was midden in de barbie tijdperk! De barbie wand bij intertoys.... hemels! 🤩😍
Rollerblade barbie the one that was recalled was one of my favourites
Oeh! True! a dangerous beauty indeed 😅✨💖
The US names for the Generation Girl Doll line was Barbie, Nichelle, Tori, Chelsie, Lara and Ana
Thanks for the info! 😍💖✌🏻✨
I only have two left here from philippines it's barbie traumshiff 1993 and totally hair ken
Gotta be Hollywood Hair Teresa for me. Her little orange outfit and her long light brown hair. And Teresa is my fave doll anyway! I managed to get her unboxed a while back. As you know, it's not easy/impossible to find her boxed in Europe.
She is VERY HARD to find indeed! ⭐️ so congrats on getting her mint like that! 💖👏🏻
My favorite has to be the Hollywood Hair and Totally Hair
the story of your bro taking the bf phrase is the best lol
😂😂
I also remember #1and 4 miss this dolls 😍🥺❤️
This is awesome! Mariko (Mari in the USA) is one that I have - love her!
Love that doll! 😍💖
i just saw your channel and saw these Barbie dolls. i just noticed that you didn't include the Cut and Style Barbie. I used to have one of that.
I remember the generation Girls barbie that I would see at toys are us.
Where do you usually buy vintage Barbie??
hmm.. Ebay or Vinted.. Ebay usually is VERY overpriced for me living in EU
Love your collection bro 💜😍
🥹🩷🙏🏻✨
Steven Arron channel he demonstrated in repairing a talking barbie ,I think it was that the other night .
👍🏻💖
i love your list, and yes everyone have the fabs; yours are 90s that's cool.
🥰💖🥰 Thank you dear!
Number 2 was and still is my favorite 😻
I had all of the generation girls and Susie was tori, mariko was Mari, and Marissa was called Ana
🙋🏼♂️✨ Thanks for the info doll!
Teen Talk Barbie was quite the scandal here in the US. People were upset because they felt it discouraged girls from pursuing STEM careers. And now? Our girl is a astronomer and scientist. How far we have come. Totally Hair Barbie's dress was inspired by designer Emilio Pucci. His designs and prints were big in the 60's.
Wow! that’s amazing! 👏🏻💖 haha yeah who’s upset now right? 😅 Thanks for the info btw! I didn’t know that.. always happy to learn some new Barbie facts 😇💖👏🏻
