I started watching your videos a couple of weeks ago and I love them. My name is Gregg Barnes and I designed the 2007 limited edition Elina Barbie that you mention in this video (around 8 minutes in...the doll in the center). I am a theater designer (not a doll designer) but I designed a live action version of the Fairytopia film for the stage and the chance to design the doll came about based on that. It was such an honor to work with Mattel who walked me through the process. My sketch for the costume of the actress who played Elina is on the front of the box...and a photo of me is on the back of the box...as a child holding my own Barbie in my parents backyard in San Diego California. They have the price point for the doll nailed down before the doll is manufactured so when developing the prototype you have to choose which elements are most important to you to stay within that price point. For instance if you choose to have lurex in the hair (which i did) you have to sacrifice something else. When they shared the prototype with me (all handmade) before shipping that off as the guide to the manufacturing of the doll...I had a chance to give notes and they made changes accordingly. When the doll was released it was slightly different than the prototype (the main thing being that the colors weren't as subtle as I'd have preferred) but I loved how she turned out...and I'm glad it seems like you did as well. There is a little Bibble in the box! You'll probably never see this post but I thought some of your subscribers might be interested if they read these comments. Keep up the good work!

the early 2000s era of barbie with the pastel pink boxes and the concepts are probably peak barbie tbh like the brand really has gone down hill since those days. also, i want that collector alina doll sooooo bad!

You missed the Barbie Fairytopia Enchantress Collector doll. As a kid I was upset she was for adults and not for play (because I wanted her).

it's so sad to see the dip in quality over time :( I miss the early 00's Barbie dolls

You missed fairies from "Barbie a fashion fairytale". They didn't have wings, but was really cute and full of glitter with really nice facemolds.

The 2000’s were such iconic years for doll lines ! Like the details are amazing and Barbie was at its peak !! Every little Girl was collecting them when I was a kid !

the early 2000s fairy dolls give me such an intense nostalgia even though i never owned any and wasnt even alive then. idk how to put it into words but it's like an early 2000s english quietgirl soft vibe

The collector Elina is a gold label, she's based on the Fairytopia Live stage show. She was and now still is super hard to get hold of bc she was only sold via fao schwarz and as merch at the shows itself.

I have the Mariposa doll, my mom didn't let me open the box as a kid so I would just look at her and take in her beauty. I opened her a few years back and I'm glad she's still in great condition

the limited edition dolls are stunning. its impossible to tell that some of them are barbie dolls, they look so different, even from dolls of around the same time? theyre utterly gorgeous though, they appeal to me so much, they seem a bit more medevial fairy tale inspired? which i love!

You forgot Thumbelina D': she was so cute ! I also loved so much all her friends, I remember they also did a blue version of Thumbelina (or a character which is not on the movie) the dolls were very original, their faces were so cute with big eyes, they kinda remind me the Pixies from Winx Club ! Yeah Thumbelina "wasn't really" a Fairy, but the vibes of that movie were very unique and even the movie itself was actually a very very good movie ! I liked the fact Thumbelina was literally in the size of a Barbie doll and a litte girl wanted to kidnapp her and play with her like a doll, literally, but they there was a very ecological plot too... a very very good movie with very very good *fairies* dolls !

The designs for many older dolls are so dreamy!!! I wish newer dolls had that kind of design aesthetic) Maybe one day they will

Wow the final two really show how stark the difference has become between collector and playline dolls.

There's also the Barbie Sawn lake Balerina (2003, Princess Odette)! Her wings, in a hard transparent plastic, they could move and light up when pressing a button. I never was a fan of barbies, but this one has always been precious to me. Her wings looks like the ones on the right here 7:42

Aww I miss my 2003 fairytopia sparkle fairies, they were fantastic dolls. The quality was great too, not like how they make dolls these days.

Also the sparkle fairies aren't actually in the movie, they're part of the pre-movie fairytopia line which also had the wonder fairies and magical mermaids. They branched out with the movie after with elina, dandelion etc .

the ONLY exception I have for dolls that have jewelry glued to their skin is: if it serves a purpose (ie you can play music if you were to push a button on their necklace or bracelet, for example). if it doesn't have a purpose, then they should've made it so you could remove the jewelry and put it on any other doll.

That was lovely 💗, next you should totally do Every Single Ballerina Barbie!!!

I love the collectible fairy series, garden and forest! I have them in my collection and I wish they would've continued making that series. There are so many options that they could've done! Oh well....

Dandelion!! She is number one for me! Her face! That smile! Her hair colour! ❤❤❤❤❤

I got the fairytopia pastel purple fairy in 2003 and I still have her! 🧚🏻‍♀️✨

I'm always sooooo happy when you update 💗 Just the way you talk and the topics you cover about all sorts of dolls is always so satisfying

I’m a huge fan of the Fashion Fever line, and would for you to go over all the items/dolls from that collection!!!

I like that last tooth fairy doll.

Yassss I love fairies!❤

in my childhood I remember having a Sunburst fairy doll from Barbie Fairytopia. its in my basement somewhere in a toy room where my parents kept all the old toys we had.

Okay Fairy of the Forest Barbie is STUNNING!!!

I think you should have added the Thumbelina dolls as well, because they kind of are fairies and the wing design and set up is pretty cool with those

The dolls from before 2000 are so beautiful! They got cute wings and hair, pretty outfits, colorful skins, they can make bubbles or have lights on their dresses which is a fun concept. I like them! I had the pink basic fairy from the first Fairytopia line... i lost her but had good memories with this doll 🥰I think i named her Rosie... not very original but it goes well with her colors.

I had Elina. she was insanely gorgeous. her clothes would shimmer and looked like actual flower petals, they were sturdy and the quality was just amazing. her hair was magical too. but the main feat was the wings, they could actually LIT UP and they were so LOVELY gosh i miss her

I still have my Bubble Fairy Christie!! It’s still one of my absolute favourites, she has such a sweet face 💗💗

I actually got the blue Magic Of The Rainbow doll. I love her design and color scheme. Plus the mini moon thing she came with. Not sure if I saved her when me and my parents were forced to move some years ago. She was in my playroom yet so much of my dolls were in bins and I didn’t have enough time to really search everywhere before our crappy ex-landlord kicked us out for good. I lost so much stuff cause of that jerk including a ton of unopened toys I got over the years (many from the Disney Store that I couldn’t rebuy again because they were no longer in stock) that in total I had spent likely 400 or so dollars on. And yeah I was rightfully pissed on being forced to leave all that behind (as he gave us a short time to move out which actually is against the law when you’re a landlord of a place). Still am tbh. Especially since he brought everything we left to the dump. Yeah you read this right. He took like closet full of unopened toys and a bunch of other stuff in good like condition and brought it to the dump. And yes he could of taken it to like Goodwill or something so they can get new homes but he refuses to bring anything to those places cause (and this in his own words btw) he doesn’t want to give anything to black people. (despite the fact that most people I’ve seen at these stores are white, with the most poc buyers being Hispanic)

You missed the Barbie signature flight of fashion barbie. The evil fairy. She has the Odile face sculpt.

I'm loving this series! The first fairy Barbie I got was the Bubble Angel Barbie, I think from 1994 (you forgot that one ;___;). I'm still searcing for one (since the one that I had doesnt exist anymore xD) in a reasonable price and in good condition.

Joey, these Barbie fairy dolls are too cute.

2 days after watching this vid i found the fairy of the forest barbie (2:37) at an antique street fair 'new in box' for 10 bucks. quotations bc the box was smashed up and she absolutely came out to be displayed lmao. but i gasped when i recognized her and she is, in fact, stunning like you said!

Im so into Barbie omg! Love your videos! I feel my Barbie love more and more again hehe! Fairy Barbie dolls are like the only Barbie’s where I like the 2000s more than the 90s ones what’s very unusually for me! 🧚🏻‍♀️

You forgot about "Flight in Fashion" doll, one of the "most recent" collector fairy dolls we've got. She's stunning! I also want to add that I love your video concepts and I'm really enjoying your "Every - - - Barbie doll" saga ✨

I have the Mariposa one right at the beginning! She will always be one of my absolute favourites, she is indestroyable! I did so much with her, I took her into the bathtub, I styled her, I threw her down into the garden from the balcony, I threw her onto trees, and so on, and she never really broke (the only stuff that was broken was broken by the previous owner)! 🤩🥰 I have soooooo many memories! 💞💓💖🦋 And her makeup is stunning. ⭐️ I could talk about this doll for ages. 💞 She had pretty huge feet tho… but she was always my main character when playing after I got her. None of my other Barbies could ever beat her. Only this one vintage rhinestone-eyes Barbie could ever come close to her beauty and quality. I also have the Elina rainbow-like doll in 6:42 at the bottom left. I didn’t like her as much, because her plastic is pretty hard and I never really knew what to do with her, but seh’s fine. 💕 I thought about selling her, but now I more feel like keeping her… 🥲 12:33 I also have the one here on the top left with the brown hair! I got her on my first school day (not in 2012, but in 2014) ever from my parents because I fell in love with her at the store 💗 The doll herself is actually not that amazing, but her wings are nice (I could put them at any Barbie because they were kind of a belt) and she has a nice pair of shoes. Most of the time I played with her she had the role of the evil stepsister tho… 😅 14:03 a girl in kindergarten brought her Mariposa (the one on the top right) to kindergarten one day and the doll was quite cute, but I think the original Mariposa was better. 💕

Oh my god. Thank you so much for making this!! I searched for this after I saw your mermaid video and was so hoping you'd make a fairy one. Barbie Fairies are my absolute favorite!

The pink fairy that you had in your hand at the end is really beautiful! 💖

Joey we see you baby . Loving the new look . Out here glowing 😊

Please do every single Barbie beach doll like her in swimsuits and stuff. I want to know which ones I want to collect

the magic of the rainbow doll was so amazing because she had mechanical wings that flapped when you clicked a button, also she worked as a remote control for some reason ahshahs she came with a game and it was A LOT for me as a kid

Big fan of you since 2019❤❤❤❤

The dolls of the 2000s were so neat! Today I am no longer interested in the current barbers who are really cheap

Love this series! Would really love to see every ballerina Barbie! I’m hoping to collect most of those🥰💗

Please consider doing a video on all the birthday Barbies! My girls and I love this series.

Hi joey! The elina doll came out 2005, the barbie mermadia came out 2006. They came along with the other merchandise corresponding to the movies those years. The lineup: fairytopia: 2005, mermaidia 2006, fairytopia magic of the rainbow: 2007 😊

I like the Fairy of the Forest and Garden Fairy. Hopefully, there's a Dolls of the World video too.

There is also a Legends of Ireland Fairy Queen collector doll. She is Awsome!

i had the barbie mermaidia doll in the top right corner at 5:42 she had a button on her necklace that would cause sparkly water to surge through her wings. The battery started going dead after a few years though, so eventually it would just made a loud noise as it struggled to move the water around 😅

The Collector Elina was made as part of the promotion of the Fairytopia musical

Alina's light up fiberoptic wings welt so futuristic!

Barbie as Thumbelina had dolls too. That's a fairy movie

10:42 I had the one with the teal tights and pink hair when I was a kid!! I think I still have her somewhere, but her wings snapped into a hole in her back since they were a solid piece of plastic, and she smelled like strawberries, like the old Strawberry Shortcake dolls my mom had as a kid from the eighties!! She may also be the reason why I have pink hair and love to wear insanely colorful makeup looks now, as well as Monster High!! 🫶🏻😭

Homie I gotta pause the video here and say, I saw the fairy with the water/glitter in her wings at the thrift store a couple days ago. She was new and in box and when u pushed the button she was so loud. I thought she was hideous and left her. I woulda bought and mailed her to you if I knew lol

03:35 Titania's wings are small because she is a ballerina fairy, from the ballet A Midsummer's Night Dream. Ballerinas always have very small wings when they play fairies, so that the wings won't be in the way when they dance

I've always wanted a fairy doll. I might have to get one now. I hope your next list is of barbie's horses.

You also forgot the Fairy Queen limited edition doll from Fairytopia ! (yes this doll exists ! And I didn't know myself, but then I saw the pictures of the doll and... WOW ! The quality is insane !!) I think there is also a fairy-butterfly limited edition doll from the same collection of the "unicorn Barbie doll" but I don't remember her name, I just remember her face which was very unique too !..

i screamed when i saw the forest fairy holly molly i need that

I used to see those winx dolls which were very pretty but it is a shame that I never got them as a child. I'm also aware that barbies had fairy versions and I loved them however I never owned a barbie doll. When I was a child my parents never bought me those so instead I would play with barbie dolls from a niece of mine who also happened to own one of the winx dolls from Matel and some friends and at the day care before I turned 8. Now I'm 28 and will become 29 next month and regret that I never had these. Fairies are my favorite supernatural beings.

Omg I had the starlight fairy as a kid 😍 I wish I kept her. Also had the whole faiytopia collection

I had the Woodland Fairy once and sold her some years ago. She is even more beautiful in real life, there is a little regret that she had to move on.

I remember wanting the Glowing Fairy dolls when I saw the commercial of them.

You missed the Faraway Forest Fairy Kingdom wedding dolls - They are so beautifully made, if I won the lottery... lol

Omg I have the same Mermadia ones you have, I loved them as a kid! Crystal lost her feets and half her clothes lol, but Elina is in pretty decent condition so I’m planning to display her!

You unlocked a childhood memory for me. I had a tiny Flying Butterfly Teresa toy from McDonalds and I loved her!

10:44 some of them look like knock-offs... Mariposa was the doll of my dreams as a kid 😔 her bodysculpt is so pretty

I maybe a teenage fan of yours, but you inspire me. Like how you tell so much about dolls that I have never even heard of.

9:17 I have that one as well! It was a christmas gift when I was little

omg this unlocked a memory! i totally forgot starlight fairy, i got 2 one christmas and i loved them soooo much

My cousin had the 2007 Elina Barbie with lighted wings and the Fairy-mermaid Elina. I always wanted that Barbies too 😂

What about the Barbie Thumbelina line?? Was released in 2009, was very cute and was put in recyclable packaging.

one of the best youtube videos i’ve seen in a long time

I have Fairy of the Forest barbie. She's gorgeous!

Yes! love it when you upload

I used to have Summer

Can you do every beach Barbie doll

the fairy in the wedding dress at 12:01, is princess graciella. just like queen marabella from mariposa, she was exclusive to toys r us and is nearly impossible to find (specially new in box)

I had the blue one from 1999!!! OMG I loved her so much, couldn't wear any other clothes because of the moving part on her back and her hair was SO HARD, glued forever in one position, but ahhhh she was so cool!

My sister's and I have the 3 backup fairytopia dolls. Or I think it's just 2. I clearly remember having the pink one to me mine because it's closer to red, and the blue one for my sister as blue is her favorite color.

Funfact the last barbie fairytopia elina doll is believed to be the doll for another sequel which when elina broke the time fabric and meets mariposa! And they both help eachother to help fairytopia to get away from liverna.

You could do angel Barbies! There's so many 😅 💖

10:30 I had the one where you could put little glittery flowers on her wings! I remember seeing and ad for it on TV and being mesmerised. I was so excited when my mum told me i could have it and went to the mall with a friend to buy it. She ended up getting the brunette version of it and we played with them. Such a nice memory

I Love your videos Joey ! I haven’t had the best week so far , and seeing you posted a vid made me really happy ❤

I have the fairy if the forest and garden fairy. I love them. I did have a bubble fairy you didn't show. She had hard plastic wings with round holes in them. You could take the wings off (they were one piece) and dip into bubble solution. Then use them as your bubble wand. It came out in the 90s.

I just found out there was also a fairytopia mermedia color change doll! (I found out, because I saw her in a thrift store hehe), ngl I love the fairies doll, so I hope we can get like an update video from you soon or sth like that *more fairies* 🧚🏼‍♀️💛

You missed out on Barbie thumbelina

Thank you for got Barbie is the Sugar Plum Fairy in the Nutcracker Suite

I was gonna mention I used to have a fairy like Barbie called Bubble Angel Barbie... very fairy like but I guess she's an angel lol

As with all Barbies, it seems they went from good to wonderful to blah :( I have the Fairy of the Garden and she is really pretty. There are quite a few others I would like to have. I'm trying to think of other lines you could do videos on if you haven't already. I'll have to give it some thought :) Take care hon

I had the butterfly fairy Christie doll. I remember that you had to clip her wings on to the motor on her back and they flapped. As you said she did come with a zip line, but I lost mine right after I got my doll. I also had the tooth fairy barbie as well.

I love the history lessons. Thanks! 😀👍

God I really hope they improve the newer fairy dolls. The mermaid ones have been all sorts of nice but I love fairies a lot more and definitely want to see the huge butterfly wings make a comeback theyre soo cool

Ohh the barbie on 4:40 was my first ever barbie doll! I still have her and I think she is one of my prettiest dolls! The haircolour is very unique for a barbie, gorgeous caramel shade with a green streak! The outfits are not anything special but the doll is gorgeous❤️

you missed the dreamtopia dress up sets with multiple clothes and accessories that can change from fairy to princess to mermaid. they’re like the better quality than most of typical dreamtopia dolls

I love this channel and this video some of them are really pretty and more

I really love fairy! best video))

The doll at 5:55 comes also in a pretty lavender color. I had that doll, if you press the necklace a motor on her back would spin and mix the liquid and make the glitters move around. She's way too cool
