The way the gold dress is sewn is how they used to make Barbie's fashions back in the early sixties. They closed with metal snaps or zippers and everything was finished so nicely just as the clothing was for real people. They hadn't devised cheap short cuts for dolls' clothing yet.

[@noradennis4361]

I grew up with this doll. I remember the wonderful quality of the clothes. I miss that. I still have my bubble cut Barbie that my mom gave me when I was five. She was my first fashion doll.🙂

[@Barbination]

It’s amazing! so detailed 😍🎄💚✨

[@dixierae3442]

​​@@BarbinationMy goodness I don't know how I missed this but I'm so pleased I did. It's Christmas Eve morning and I'm so thrilled to watch them opened back to back. I was born in OMG 1960 so their being Vintage Themed like me 😊❤ takes me back and warms my heart. My first Barbie came in a red 1piece bathing suit with curly Brunette hair. OK on with the merriment and Surprises. 🎉😊

[@JazzHands]

Putting all the minis in the calendar with the boxes out is the perfect way to display everything, you’re brilliant!

[@Barbination]

😍💚🎄✨

[@SkyAllStars]

Can confirm that in Canadaland, we also call it a tree skirt! She's so beautiful! I'm glad you waited until now to show her off - it wouldn't be right otherwise. Love your videos!

[@Barbination]

Thank you! 🎄❤️✨

[@amberkelly3187]

The quality on the accessories, the embroidery on the dress. That’s what I expect from Mattel.

[@Barbination]

👏🏻❤️

[@djovriekrus2686]

6:25 I love the fact that on the newer repro’s and vintage style bodies, Mattel actually made the shape of the hands like the classic original ones. With the separated fingers. Those early reproductions (like the 90’s ones) they had those ugly hands which had to resemble the original hands, but the fingers were molded together. Now they look like they should! These are the details we love! This whole doll looks 100% Classic quality Mattel and I would love to own her, but I’m WAY to late! Haha! (The new doll for this year… those accessories look just sublime too!)

[@Barbination]

This whole set is just one big treat! 💚 Hope you were in time to get this years Christmas queen ! 🙏🏻🥹

[@djovriekrus2686]

@@Barbination No i didn't get her... it's even worse. There was a NRFB 2022 on 'Marktplaats' for €150 this week and i was too lazy to purchase her.

She’s gorgeous 😍 how can you not love vintage dolls, they’re everything a fashion doll is about 🤩

The Santa mugs look just like a set that my Great Grandmother painted in the 50s or 60s! I think they are based off of an actual vintage set!! so Cool!

[@Barbination]

I think so too! 😍 someone commented about all the pieces being actual vintage Christmas items 🎄✨

What a beautiful set! You did it justice Arjen with this magical video! Hope you do another Christmas video! Love the music with the Xmas look book! So Chrismassy magical! 🥰 Love Barbie and her Guy Best Friend! So adorable and touching! 🥲🫶🥰👍

Awe! Thank you so much darling! ❤️ I still wanna do a Holiday Barbie 2023 video!

[@daisynieves1644]

I love this Barbie! I got her last year and, currently I'm waiting for this year's version. She should be coming any day now. This series is gorgeous!

[@Barbination]

🥹🎄✨ Absolutely! Just got her and planning on posting a video of her next week!! 🙌🏻🎄⭐️

Traditionally, Advent is before Christmas. The 12 days of Christmas starts on Christmas day and goes on after Christmas.

I tried to get the 2022 one but it sold out too quick. When they announced the 2023 one I was stoked. Her green suit is soooooo gorgeous! I love her

[@Barbination]

😍❤️ So excited for her!

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

I'm coming late to this video, but wanted to leave a comment. I'm a huge fan of vintage Barbies! And your mini me's Christmas pajamas were super cute! Vrolijk Kerstfeest!

awe! haha thank you so much sweetie! Happy Holidays! 🥹🎄✨

[@noradennis4361]

I wanted last years doll, but didn't have the money. She's so gorgeous. This year I did buy the 2023 doll. A present for myself after spending five months in the hospital. 🙂

[@Barbination]

Oh my! 😮 I hope you’re all better and ofcourse you deserve nothing but all the dolls you want after such a battle🙏🏻❤️✨ Stay safe darling and wish you al happy and healthy Christmas season 😌

[@MandVersusNature]

The gold honestly even gives me another season. Looks like the curtain play clothes from Sound of Music or something. I love the way you displayed the stuff! The red dress embroidery is so perfect. I like when my winter outfits for dolls actually look warm.

[@Barbination]

haha! That’s so true! 🤣❤️✨

Another wonderful video. The Twelve Days of Christmas box is much more festive and lovely than the advent calendar. This year’s calendar is summer themed. Barbie comes wearing a bathing suit! 🤷‍♀️ Looking forward to more holiday fun with you, Mini Arjen and all the dolls. 🎄🌹🎁🌹🎄

Hi Darling Arjen! Sorry I have not been commenting on your videos (shame on me 😞) it's been a tough time but I try not to miss them. It's a very nice doll and advent calendar, your video stories are getting better and better. Keep up the great work. I love your pastel Kingdom thank you for sharing it with us. Hugs x

I feel like Ken could’ve put a little more effort into his Christmas card to Barbie, heehee. He could’ve at least told her that she’s his everything. 😁 I love how you displayed everything at the end! 🎄😍

This is the fanciest advent calendar I ever had (they're so nostalgic for me as I always have one every year since my early childhood). And of course the 2nd window is always the best because Dec 2nd is my birthday 😆 Can't wait for the second calendar to arrive this year 🙌

She's cute, but I already have reproductions that are very similar to the base doll. I would rather have the one from this year. I like her two outfits more, and she has a darker skintone, which I have been looking for in the original face mold.
