I did not expect the quality of the barbie movie dolls to fall so fast 💀

The fact we almost had all mermaid dolls in the Swedish Fish tier.

Every time I see the dolls for the early movies, I'm just floored that there was a time when regular playline Barbie dolls had such high quality. And I was alive back then and had some of them!

i had the island princess and mariposa dolls as a kid. they both shed glitter like  crazy and i distinctly remembered mariposa smelling like burnt plastic all the time. memories...

How dare Odette not have her very own tier category lol

I had the swanlake Barbie as a kid and accidentally sat on her and broke her neck. I don´t think I ever cried so much. I miss her TvT

The Barbie and the secret door doll Is so chaotic it comes back to being iconic for me

Not you unintentionally roasting lesbian flag 😂

It’s sad how easily you can see the quality of the dolls degrade as you go down the tier list😭

I was so fortunate that my parents got me Alexa, Mariposa, Odette, Rapunzel and Viveca to name a few, and they’re still so gorgeous after all these years! If only Barbie could be as detailed and high quality as it was back then, maybe even the younger gens would be more interested and enjoy them more— but that’s just my 2 cents lol

As a former little girl, I can say with confidence that I loved mermaid dolls with plastic tails. The stupid two in one fabric tails made me so mad, what's the point of having a mermaid doll if her tail can't go in water? Also I absolutely loved the school uniform one for Princesses Charm school. It was my favorite movie and I can't believe i missed that doll

I also think Erica's doll was better than Annelise's, though that may go to my personal bias for always preferring dolls with dark hair. My parents used to buy me dolls with similar features to me, and I have mid-to-dark brown hair and pale skin. Though I also agree her outfit is more appealing as well; imo you can never go wrong with light pink and blue!

14:15 NOTHING could have prepared me for "shit ass elephant" 😭😭 i am laughing so hard right now thank you for this

Erica’s doll is 100% better than Anneliese’s, if not aesthetically then at least in terms of quality. I’m still really annoyed that Anneliese’s main skirt layer is slightly too short because Erica has a full-length skirt and the discrepancy looks odd when they’re displayed together (plus how ironic is it that the working class character gets the long full skirt instead of the princess??). Also Anneliese is meant to have a ruffle at the hem of her bodice like Erica but that was scrapped from her design. These budget cuts are just a lot more apparent in Anneliese which makes me appreciate Erica a lot more

i would love a 3 hour long, in depth review and ranking of every barbie movie from you lol! i think alot of us like the longer form content anyways

The side dolls for Fairytopia were always better than the main character for me. Same with Mermaidia. I loved all the fairies and mermaids that came out around that time; they're so beautiful imo. I had Dandelion (fairy) and Nori (mermaid) as a kid and I love them a lot.

The quality went down after Mattel started pouring all their money into Monster High and poor Barbie was suffering.

Omg the first mariposa doll brought back memories! Justice for Mariposa, she was SUCH a stunning doll in person Her dress was so detailed and her wings were so gorgeous and elegant,,, I loved her sm. I am a little sad I missed the Nutcracker and Swan Lake era of dolls, but Mariposa??? She was cookie dough bites. My queen.

The most controversial part about this to me is definitely the theatre snacks. I’ve never once seen Swedish fish sold at a movie theater in my area and those are not movie snacks to me 😂

Darling Dollz: It's fun seeing Barbie in red 😄

Also Darling Dollz ranking Holiday Barbies: 😐 ... Another. Red... Dress 🎀🎄🎅

OG Mariposa deserves to be in the top tier from the face card alone, she's so beautiful/unique compared to so many of the same-y open-smile Barbies that were coming out at the time. i thrifted one last month with no clothes/wings and a broken neck just so i can rebody her head onto a MTM body, but i still wanna get a NIB one eventually bc she's just ✨that girl✨
