Gorgeous gowns, a sensational suit and thanks to boiling water, Malibu was cured of her “swollen glands “. 😂 I laughed so hard at her appearance that I cried. Mattel has no quality control. Anyone could see there was a big issue with her head while she was still in the box. But your cure was sure! 🩷🌷🩷

Wow!! I'm so glad that you could fix Millie's head!! I'll take a note of this for the future. I really like these dolls. This Millie's makeup really suits her and gives her a lot of personality. Also, a side glance is another extra point for me. And Brooklyn looks stunning with this new facemold with closed mouth. I hope they release more dolls like this.

Hi Arjen I just love ur videos. I was wondering why your Barbie head was at such a strange angle in comparison to the other one. She looks like a bubble headed blowfish.

I just love their luxurious hair I also like that you kept the original bodies. Gorgeous make overs darling ❤😘.

As a black doll collector, if Brooklyn didn’t have braids, curls or an Afro, I personally would not have purchased her. And there are a lot of styles you can do with micro braids. You just treat it as if the hair was loose.

I keep going back and forth as to which to get. I was going to get Brooklyn, but I have that pink Silkstone outfit that looks so good on Malibu. They are $100 on Amazon in Canada, so I might wait to see if they go on sale. I would like both, but not for the regular price.

OMG OMG I am so happy you were able to fix Barbie Malibu. Geeez, that was a close one. You are so right. When buying a collectible and $pending good coin$, you should have to boil Barbie head.

I know you think you don't have as many styling options with braids, but we wear & style them in countless ways. Maybe look up some microbraid styles & try them out. I personally find styling braids is much easier than styling loose hair. I believe in you! You really can't ruin them. I hope I can get the Brooklyn. I love her hair it was my go-to style as a teenager! I know you would prefer saran, but I I'm not a fan of Black dolls with straight hair. I really wat to see her with big beautiful natural hair like Barbie Extra #1. As she'd make a perfect mini me & I wouldn't have to paint on many more freckles.❤ I really hope I can find a way to buy her as my 1st Brooklyn. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you! I'm so glad you were able to fix your Malibu.

i’ll take on any challenge so bring on the micro braids! 😉🩷✌🏻 haha, I do think the micro braids that were used on the Kim faced fashionista were somehow better quality?! 🤷🏼‍♂️ these ones feel like it’s crafty rope or something. Anyway! Thanks for the encouragement darling! 🩷✌🏻

[@juliamenezes8053]

The gowns are so beautiful it seems longer than 65 years for Barbie but its cute to recognize her. The faces are pretty good work to restore the head shape it might return though this happened to a few of mine but I used sterile cotton balls inside the head, there isnt a neck peg either, and the dent hasnt come back. The bent arm position is a little weird the dress is nice.

[@Stardustceiling]

I'm glad you got your closed mouth Millie's head fixed. That's one case where you definitely have to de-box. I will likely de-box mine too simply because I don't like the pose the doll is in. It's supposed to look like she has her hands fashionably resting on her hips. But they're not even close and they're fastened into place with her elbows so raised up she looks like she's about to dance at a hoedown. Not model a beautiful 65th Anniversary gown. It's a shame too because I love the perfect Barbie pink background behind the doll in that particular gown. I might just free her and then pose her back in her box. The doll itself is SO pretty, I love the hair, makeup and jewelry marking that it's her sapphire Anniversary. It's a splendid presentation except for the hands and elbows being fixed in place and not being where they should be. But other than that and those still pesky quality issues like you had to deal with, the dolls are really great for Barbie's 65th. I loved when you put Millie in the Proudly Pink suit, that looked amazing. So fun to see them dressed in the 90's boufy ballgowns too. I don't know if you do this, but I always then wonder what the next Anniversary doll for her 70th will look like? Happy Easter. 🐰🐣🎀

OMG! So this is what you were talking about on your previous response to my comment. That's just so bad. I hope they stop doing that cause sometimes it ruins the dolls head. Could've been a lot better if they boxed it like the 90's where they used like a wire holding the neck and a plastic for the hair instead.

In the sketches, it looked like the over skirt and bust would’ve been more like a pleather material, and though I’m sad we didn’t get that, what makes me sadder are the raw edges on the scalloped ends.
