Let's unbox Cowboy Ken from Barbie the Movie

#barbiethemovie #cowboy #ken
When I first saw him in Toys "r" us Sunway Pyramid, I immediately decided to grab him and paid for it. He's too good to let go.
While unboxing, I can say that he's got such good quality outfits and accesories. Something I'm appreciative about
Will you be adding him to your Barbie the Movie collection if he is available in your nearest toy store?
As always, thank you for watching ❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic review of the dolls. This was so much fun too watch. Sincerely, fellow adult doll collector 🧡

❤Love your Ken movie collection

[@ArtieArdee]

Yeayyyy, thank you

[@Ledamorgana]

This Ken is amazing ❤🎉😊

[@ArtieArdee]

He sure is.

[@idhamthegamerboy]

You’re so lucky! I went to Sunway as well but still cannot get/find him or the roller skate barbie/ken 😭😭

[@ArtieArdee]

Yeah fortunately, I managed to find the last piece.

[@e.d.t.]

I was most excited for this Ken. I might either get this Ken or the one in pastel stripes, but I need to be patient and wait until they are all released so I can pick the one best Ken and best Barbie. There are so many options. My older sister had the Western Ken so some of my earliest memories of Ken dolls are him dressed as a cowboy.

[@ArtieArdee]

Ahaaaaaa.... If u already have Kens in cowboy outfits, maybe u can opt for the pastel striped outfit Ken. But this is too good to miss 👿👿👿

[@bradsherwood194]

Thanks for the detailed review of the cowboy Ken. He has not yet arrived in the US. I am surprised how detailed his outfit is compared to the other dolls. But that glued down hair! I have been washing out the gel from Ken's hair and use water based pomade to style the hair with good results. Anyway, this dolls has amazing details that I just didn't expect from Mattel.

[@ArtieArdee]

Yes I was pleasantly surprised to see such good details on his outfit. Highly recommended doll to collect if you can only choose one. And since he comes in black pair of jeans, we can always use the jeans for other top. His hair on the other hand, I'm still uncertain how to re-style it with confidence. Lol...

[@Tigger252]

I love playing with Barbies

[@tessjess1]

Can always buy another perfect KEN head on when the hats not on..

[@ArtieArdee]

They're kinda difficult to get now. Let's hope for more stocks to come in and perhaps I'll get another one.

[@juliettejouanen]

I just received mine today! Mine’s hair made him look like a cone head, I managed to make him look good by brushing it though! I also put the longer front part outside of the hat (like the emo boy beanie look) and he looks great now! Even if you don’t like the look with the hair out of the hat, you can leave it like that for a bit just to shape it!

[@ArtieArdee]

Yeayyyy congratulations on the purchase!!! The heavily gelled hair is quite awful but of course, I prefer rooted hair than moulded on hair for Ken. Just wished the hair cut could be done better.

[@connierod6965]

Cowboy Ken is very adorable and has a well made outfit, but I think I still prefer Surfing Ken out of all the “Ryan” dolls so far. Mattel is also supposed to release a Ken with his fur coat, so hopefully we’ll see pictures of him soon. As usual, thanks for another great video + doll review. ❤ By the way, what are your thoughts about the movie itself? Did you enjoy it and what did you think about the ending?

[@ArtieArdee]

The ending was a lil bit unexpected. I was a bit sad the movie ended, I think because I was looking forward for the movie so much and when it ended, I was stunned. How did u find the ending?

[@connierod6965]

@@ArtieArdee I agree. I also didn’t expect the ending to turn out that way. I think I would have preferred the ending to have been different and have her choose to stay “home” instead. Barbie: the movie references The Wizard of Oz a lot, so I’m actually really surprised by how it ended. I still really enjoyed the movie, though. It was a 9/10 film for me. ✨ Anyway, for anyone trying avoid spoilers … stop reading now, lol. ✨ Also, while I understand that her feelings of anxiety and depression were due to the connection with Gloria, it still didn’t make sense (at least to me) why she wanted to become human. Why do you think that happened? Maybe it was a reference to The Velveteen Rabbit (another story about a toy that to comes to life) or perhaps it’s a metaphor for how women in general just want to be seen as human beings? 🤔 So many interesting theories. I’d love to hear more of your thoughts if you’re comfortable sharing them. And if anyone else wants to add their thoughts about the film too, please do so. ❤️

[@ArtieArdee]

@@connierod6965 the ending got me thinking that Barbie the Movie might have a sequel. I may be extremely wrong, but that's the only way we would know why the movie ended this way. It's as if she's going to go for a new adventure and we're left to wonder. But I do hope that there's a sequel.

[@wander570]

@@ArtieArdeeI think so too. I believe there will be a 2nd movie. Possibly Ken decides to become human as well and him and Barbie become a real life couple.

[@sionxion]

So lucky get this doll congreat ❤I want get him ❤

[@ArtieArdee]

Thank you. He's got really good quality outfit.

[@dollsgamescorner]

Omg so perfect for western barbie sis. I feel contemplating coz i want the barbie gold jumpsuit too😭😭

[@ArtieArdee]

He's a perfect match for western Barbie. Unfortunately I didn't manage to buy her. So, I've only got this Ken, waiting for Barbie, just like in the movie. 😅

[@minimabelsenthusiast1611]

Hi ,can i know when did you bought the Western Outfit Ken in Sunway Pyramid, and was it at the Toy R'Us Store or the Barbie Movie Event booth ??

[@ArtieArdee]

I found him in TRU Sunway Pyramid on the 20th July. I just had some time over the weekend to record the unboxing of this Ken.

[@maxmayfeild8823]

Where do u get it in the us

[@ArtieArdee]

I got him from Toys r us, but in Malaysia though

[@michaelwood4661]

Girlfriend purchased hers today western Ken from her local big w store she loves him

[@michaelwood4661]

Girlfriend paid $100.00

[@michaelwood4661]

Girlfriend also purchased the barbie and Ken skater dolls

[@patricerogers5299]

Great review, as usual!!!! What, no horse necklace?! Or book?!🤣🐎 The belt looks fantastic. Is the denim of the jeans thinner than that made for human scale jeans? Looking forward to western Kenergy release here!

[@ArtieArdee]

Yeah no horse necklace and books, lol... The jeans are slightly thinner material than human sized jeans. But in Malaysia, our jeans are rather thin too. Lol... I would say, his jeans is not the thinnest type of material. I'm still having the Barbie Movie fever. Sigh.

[@CustardCream22]

I love them all 😃

[@petrusnelson4248]

Hello there, I happened to have these new movie dolls too, and from what I can tell from the Mattel shipper box that they came with, the dolls will be available elsewhere by October 1st. It could be earlier, so you need to be alert. 😉

[@user-tp1xd2ic4h]

@@petrusnelson4248 hello Petrus, thank you for your reaction!🤗i will keep my eye on it🧐! The rollerblade couple are so cut also😍got to have them☺️

[@ArtieArdee]

Hi Virginia, thank you so much for dropping by. I've seen postings of the western Ken and the skater dolls in IG. Apparently, now it's subject to be released in October instead of August. Over on my side, there's no restock too. I was just a lil luckier to get the last one.

[@user-tp1xd2ic4h]

Hi Artie, thank you for your answer! 😊yes i keep my eye on the movie dolls🧐☺️

Did not knew he existed

[@ArtieArdee]

And he's so cute

[@charlesperdomo6672]

where did you buy it?😳

[@ArtieArdee]

I got him from Toys r us in Malaysia

[@afsaramehrin2993]

I have him ! 🤩 along with his girlfriend, Western Barbie 🩷 I got him 2 months after I got Western Barbie. Getting him was challenging because toy stores here in Bangladesh, were refusing to have him shipped here. I almost gave up hopes on getting him until my luck just turned around and I got to know, that local importers (like online stores) exist here too. So I reached out to the importer for help and got this Western Ken through Amazon US 📦✈️💙 My ultimate goal was to get this doll pair together and I finally did it ! 🥳 Both Western Barbie and Western Ken are here with me today ✨

[@ArtieArdee]

Congratulations on the purchase. Finally you have managed to get him to pair with the Western Barbie, in which I didn't manage to get one, unfortunately. I had the chance to get her but I also wanted the pastel dress with the hat. So I chose that one. Now that I have this Western Ken, I can't seem to find the Western Barbie. Hopefully the toy stores here will stock up one day. Thank you for dropping by, sending you virtual hello all the way from Malaysia

[@afsaramehrin2993]

@@ArtieArdee toy stores in my country still don’t have basic knowledge about Ken and the other dolls from BarbieLand, they only know Barbie and her little sister, Chelsea. Back in the 80s and the 90s (when I was born), toy stores here didn’t even know who Barbie was ! ☹️ Well, they didn’t get to know her really well until the late 2000s to the early 2010s (when they first started having fashionista dolls of her shipped here)… by the time I was in my late teen years and had all my old Barbie dolls taken away from me by my own mom who claimed that I was ‘too old’ to own them now 💔 I was forced to grow up without a Barbie doll until I turned 9 in 2001, my life’s first ever Barbie was a birthday present from a neighbour. My parents (specially my misogynistic dad) never wanted me to grow up with Barbie (given, that she’s a symbol of women empowerment). The only way I ever got Barbie dolls back in those days was through presents from friends or relatives. I was 16 when all my Barbies (including my life’s very 1st one) were put into a large cardboard box and taken away from me, by my very own mom. She isn’t the only person who thinks, “Barbie is only for little girls”, almost all xenophobic Bangladeshi people still blindly believe in this ridiculous stereotype 🤦🏻‍♀️ Barbie isn’t just for the little girls. She’s for all girls and all women; regardless of age 🩷 There aren’t many Ken doll collections here… local toy stores only have the fashionista Kens in stock. If you want to have Ken from the Barbie movie collection or any other type of Ken from any signature collection, your only option here would be : to get direct help from a local importer. If I never reached out to my local importer, Western Ken would’ve not been here with Western Barbie and me today. I specifically chose the Western aesthetic of the Barbie movie because it’s my favourite 🎬 Western Barbie’s outfit is the type of costume I totally crave to wear !! 😍🩷 Western Barbie is my first ever Barbie since 2001 and Western Ken is my life’s first ever Ken. On the side note : I miss Malaysia ! 🇲🇾 I was on a 4 day visit to your country back in 2017 and that was my very first visit. I’m still waiting for the day I’ll be back again for the second time ✈️🤞🏻
