Seriously someone send Mattel a picture of an actual cat ASAP
I’ll be honest tho some of them are derpy cute
Oh yes the hairy one, gym bro mom, one that is high, the Bratz™ edition, chorus boy, the anime hair one, the one you find in flee market, the other you find in flee market, the My little pony™ edition and the one your grandma made.
Idk if no one on Tumblr knows or cares or if I just missed it on my dash but BARBIE WENT TO SPACE Like literally, they sent two dolls up to the space station.
So this Goodwill haul is more about quality than quantity - every one of these dolls is perfect, they look like they just came out of their boxes. I feel so lucky I’ll post more/better pictures later but I was too excited to wait, but my camera battery died just as I started taking pictures.
This is the US Olympic Gold Medal Skier Barbie from the early 70s, who looks super cute in this 70s era sundress in the Barbie Townhouse from the same time period. I love how colorful the 70s were for Barbie, before pink became the dominant Barbie related color.
These dolls fulfill both my doll collectors urges AND my comic action figure/statue collector urges. These are the 14” tall Marvel themed fashion dolls Madame Alexander produced a few years back. I particularly love Captain America, although I think they missed out not having something like a shield shaped bag for the doll as the only shield is the buckle on the belt which is a detail tiny enough to miss.
I’ve been contemplating buying a reproduction of the 1962 Barbie Dreamhouse for a while, even though they are a bit pricey. But then I found this original on eBay, and for only $40 USD - and it’s pretty much complete (minus the red hangers for the closet wardrobe) and in pretty great condition for an original (or at least it seems like it’s in great condition compared to others of the same age I’ve seen, obviously it does have a bit of wear and tear as it was obviously loved and played with). The lighting isn’t the greatest in these pics but I wanted to get some shots as soon as I unpacked everything and got it all set up.
My Barbies don’t really need another house I suppose but I do like to spoil them
