finding out that she wasn't used much in the 2000s makes a lot of sense to me now! i grew up in the early 2000s and didn't know about skipper until much later. i had a million barbies but no skippers. i remember asking about her and my mom being surprised like, "that's her sister!" my mom grew up in the 80s. it's interesting how so many generations have different experiences with barbie

Also the last Barbie I ever got, as I was soon deemed "too old" to play with Barbies. I had to give my collection, my case that turned into a house, and of course, all the clothes to my cousins. Needless to say I was not happy.

The younger sister of Barbie was Kelly, who was adorable, I had one, but with all the recent Barbie hype, I haven’t heard anyone talk about her, she wasn’t even mentioned in the movie. It would be great if you could make a video about Kelly, or if there is not enough info about her, maybe a reel? Either way, your videos are awesome! So entertaining and informative 🫶🏻

OMG! That tiny slip is adorable & definitely a must have for girls back in the day. I was an 80's girl, so every time I'd wear a full circle skirt, I'd have a slip underneath to fill it out (make it poofy). It was definitely a necessity for turning a look. I still have a similar pair of Barbie panties that survived my childhood.
@AnzuMiruku
@AnzuMiruku Жыл бұрын
Exactly! It’s not weird at all. The “under pretties” weren’t intended to be worn on Skipper by itself. Slips were a closet staple then. I remember my mom owned a slip in every length and color in the 80s and 90s. Skipper is meant to wear it under her dresses to make them poofier, and prettier if the lace trim peeks below the hem. 🤍

Maybe because I was little, so it was easier for me to identify to such a doll. I had several other skippers. I was crazy about the teen time line dolls and clothings, they were everything,, very colorful and Courtney was amazing, I so much wanted her because she was brunette just like me. Skipper is great 😅 It's sad that Mattel forgets about her sometimes

Malibu Skipper: Sunscreen / Where are the parents? Growing up in the 80's and 90's, well past the 70's, I don't think I remember sunscreen being used much at all. It was always that coconut scented tanning oil. Then you'd get yourself coated in aloe gel. For Gen-X and Xennials, the parents were often nowhere to be found. Safety be damned. You know, "Bye mom, I'm going with 5 girls I've never met before to play Barbies behind some random abandoned steel mill." And your mom just reply "Okay dear, come home before the street lights come on".

Interesting video. Well done. As an aside, sunscreens existed in various parts of the world long before 1971, but if you had asked the average American citizen in 1971 if he/she used sunscreen, the response would have been something like, "Do you mean suntan lotion?" Malibu Skipper's parents probably would have thought she just looked healthy with that deep tan. It took a while longer for us to wise up.

I think the idea of Barbie is that she can be anything. She's not supposed to be canonically married but it's important for girls to understand that there's nothing wrong with being married/domestic if that's what they WANT to do. Barbie is about representation.

I had no idea Skipper had so many friends/boyfriends. I wasn’t allowed to have Barbie dolls as a kid and my daughter didn’t show any interest in Barbies until she started watching the animated shows. She actually started with the baby sitting Skipper (brunette with purple streaks and 2 babies) followed by Barbie with puppies, and then Stacie & Chelsea with camping gear. She loves them, but I am very disappointed that so many Barbie dolls (especially ones that come with accessories/play sets) have cheap clothes, little to no articulation, and bad hair.

Oh wow, I got the original Skipper in 1964, when I got my first Barbie. My mom didn't really approve of Barbie and bought my sister and I Skipper. My dad said, no ya gotta get the Barbie too.

I had many skipper dolls growing up in the 80s, I loved them ^^ my favourite was Dream Date Skipper, because she had short brown hair just like me, and such a beautiful outfit

im normally not super into vintage barbie dolls but all the skipper dolls are sooo cute i might try to buy some... i like the idea that skipper is very fickle with friends and is always meeting new people to canonise why she has so many friends and boyfriends

In 16:34, there was actually a comic strip in one of the Barbie magazines (I think) where they explained why Skipper suddenly have brown hair - she dyed it and Barbie helped her with it. I don't remember much about what happened other than Skipper wanting to change her hair color and that's it. I'm not sure if Joey is aware but they did make an articulated Skipper in the 2010s on one of the "Barbie and Sisters" line, she came with Chelsea or Stacie, I think but it's a camp set. Skip has articulated elbows and wrists. EDIT: It's a Hula set with Skipper and Chelsea - she also has articulated knees which is cool!
