Your First Barbie

How many Curlies still remember their first Barbie? Mine was Sun Lovin' Malibu Barbie, circa 1978. She had mirrored sunglasses, a cover up and incredibly stark tan lines.

When I hear terms like "hipster" I think, who told cliques they could leave high school??

Because Barbie needs heels and a purse in space!

Don't forget the bonus skirt! You'll need it for hot, powdered, space food dates with Ken z

I have laughed so hard looking a pic's of 80's Barbies. Everything was so Dallas and Dynasty.

She was ready to slap someone! I loved her. Anyway, I keep trying to remember the name of a very strange Barbie. You pushed a button on her back and her lips expanded and pushed forward. She did not look remotely human when that happened. I think she had lipstick and you could kiss paper with her, and leave little lip prints. Horrifying.

I wish someone had a good side view of her pout out.

I inherited Barbies from older sisters. But my own additions were the most memorable for me. I had a lot of Disney ones and Ariel was my first, I think. I loved Ariel before I could say The Little Mermaid properly. I could only say "little mermy". And then I had Belle and Jasmine, and Aurora, oh and Pocahontas's friend. I liked her bangs.
We had two totally 80s Ken dolls. Their clothes were so awful. One was Dream Date Ken and we somehow broke something in his neck and it never sat up straight. So we called him "wobbly head Ken".

I had Dream Date Ken. He went with Slapper I posted above. That's why yours had a wobbly head.

Aw. Belle.

What a good mom you are
I don't remember a lot of anti Barbie parents when I was younger. Kids who were not that into Barbie, sure, but it's not like you didn't play with other things. Godzilla would visit my Barbies from time to time.
ETA: On the occupational note, I have a hard time remembering anyone but Astronaut and Super Star Barbie. There was a Day to Night who was a professional Diva, but I guess that was the whole point of making or buying additional outfits. She was all over the place.

And the latest.
They kind of do Mommy/Daughter variants. Clearly the 80's doll towered above the rest. Bad pun. I loved those boots.

I remember her. Another Dynasty/Dallas look.

They McDonalds sponsored NASCAR Barbie or McDonalds Barbies came out in the 90's & 2000's.

Teenage work ethic and sadly more realistic depiction for a majority of the population than Paleontologist Barbie. *When will people realize she has absolutely nothing to do with reality? Looking at the list of occupations, some have been trying to hard. Spanish Teacher Barbie. :-/ How is Western Barbie a career? Women work. Anyone born after the 50's is well aware.

I can not remember seeing any of those or my friends having anything McDonalds/Barbie related. The Gym/Aerobics center I remember well. Barbie dream house. A few of my friends had those. The deluxe shower/bath. Corvette. I had the gym and corvette but most of the time she rode around on horses or Tonka Trucks. And a giant baby puke green RV. My brothers had a massive toy RV. You lifted up the roof to get access inside. It was perfect for Barbie.
If I look at Barbies now it's to see collectors editions. The I Love Lucy and Wizard of Oz dolls were cute.

I never had a Barbie dream house. I'm pretty sure that disappointment has shaped me into who I am today.

I've recently thought about buying one, just to have.
I know what you mean. I thought my world was going to end when I didn't get the dream house. My parents said no way! They bought a doll house kit a few years before and my brothers worked so hard putting it together and gave it to me for Christmas. My little cousins came over and demolished it Christmas night. That put my parents off doll houses, forever. I got to enjoy it at friends houses so that was okay.
*Luckily I had not put handmade doll house furniture whittled by deceased family members in it yet. Not a good night. They also ripped off my teddy bears eye.
Josephine, if I were going to get one now I'd go for a really cool collectors. I kind of wish I had taken better care of a few of my regular Barbies. Many are not all that special but some are worth $200 or more now. ETA: I did see that they put out a Computer Programer/Engineer Barbie a few years ago. It's Barbie holding a laptop while wearing a blue tooth or headset.
(PS: I loved Legos & Lincoln Logs. I wouldn't mind a huge bucket of those right now)

And the pool that went with it

They put it out in different colors in the 80s

I remember this too. Maybe a cousin had it. Looks 70's

Cool I'll look out for engineer barbie. One of my exes collects barbies that are probably worth a lot, he started in the 90s. I was supposed to take one after we broke up but I forgot
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using CurlTalk App
Aw. That would have been handy.
I think she was released 4 or 5 years ago. I did notice Barbie is spelled out in binary numbers on her screen. You can probably still find her online for a reasonable price.

Oh Gah! They are weird looking. I only looked at computer programer barbie from a side view. I had not looked at other ones. I like the differences in hair but they all have that Bratz Doll or Lisa Frank thing going on. Big heads that massive eyes still don't fit on.
