What did you think of todays video?! This probably took the longest to edit since my history of Ever After High video a few months ago! Since this is my first real Barbie video during the ✨ Clawdeena Content Renaissance ✨ I wanted to pack as much information in the most interesting ways possible. Thank you so much for watching!!!

Breaks up with boyfriend and runs for president. A Queen

I literally forgot that Barbie and Ken broke up

I imagine that those throwing a hissy fit over the diverse dolls don’t even buy them and even if they do it’s not like the original Barbie is gone, just buy that one and let the rest of us have fun. I’d say I’m even a little jealous of the kids today when it comes to the range of barbies. I can’t speak for every kid but at least when I was a kid, I loved having a wide range of choice.

I remember in the past how Barbie got hate for having a new friend Becky that was the first doll on a wheelchair. LOOK AT HER NOW 😍

The only complaint I have about them is that they have the Asian and black doll in their stereotypical clothing styles I would love to see a darker skinned kawaii girl with afro puffs and a Asian girl with a more dark and edgy Urban look

I'm happy that barbie has changed from straight hair to curly and afro from not only skin barbies to curvy

omg that dark skin doll with the red outfits looks just like me. I'm glad barbie is becoming more diverse. I remember the times when I had to go to antique stores or thrift stores just to find dolls that looks like me. the toy industry is finally listening to the consumers.

i wanna be a collector, but i don't have the money:(

Im Happy mattel is listening to the Fans and stepping in the right direction with Potentially bringing Back mh and barbie extra Love your Look am i the only one who thinks this Line is inspired by birds of prey Harley Quinn

‘Curvy Ken and Petite Ken’ Ah yes, Bear Ken and Twink Ken, my favorites.

It was kinda cute how ken so badly wanted to get back with barbie but I honestly would have gotten a restraining order when it was getting on billboards 😬 Luckily I'm boy repellent enough.

I mainly collect 1950/60s Barbie🧚🏼‍♀️✨She’s the baddest🦋

Oof, My mind just blocked the fact that Barbie and Ken broke up but the fact that she broke up with him and ran for president is ✨ICONIC✨

Not many things can make me smile now days. This channel always makes me happy. Used to love playing with my Barbie dolls as a child. Used to make them sing and dance to cassettes of Micheal Jackson And Maddona.

"Barbie is like a piece of clay you can mold it into whatever you want to, give it personality, life, thought, and much more with your imagination of course. Barbie is who you want her to be. You can be anything."

"Barbie was inspired by Lily" They literally used the same body and head mold. This is far from inspiration.

You didn’t even mention the history of the doll she was inspired off of. That doll was DEFINITELY not for kids.

Can i just say i need 2000s barbies!!!'''!

Clawdeena9 makes a video, and I'm f*cking there.

I clicked faster then we could get a monster high leak-

I want to put the quote "Positive Attitude Changes Anything" in a photo frame in my bedroom, I find her vlogs such an influence even as a 17 year old

4:26 As a person who repaints dolls, this is so satisfying.

Well... Look... to be honest, I don’t care if Barbie is tall, petite, curvy, if she wears make up or not, I’m ok with that, I love the diversity of the dolls, but the only thing than I don’t like... is te quality... when I was a kid... I played with fashion fever, California Girl and other lines from these years, all the details were sublime, the materials were awesome and the accessories very fun, I just can’t accept the terrible quality of these days, the lasts Barbie than I bought, had pixelated faces, bad hair quality with poor quantity, the body very mad made, I can’t accept that... more because i paid the “justice price” I don’t feel de confidence for continue buying Mattel dolls... I gave another chance a few days ago with a new made to move doll... was worse... the quality was worse than before... with the BMR1959 line, I’m ok with the style, I like the different bodies and skins, I like the MTM, but I don’t feel the line as a “collector” line, I see more printed fabrics and bad quality again... I loosing the hopes with Mattel more and more...

Yeah the line isn’t perfect but it’s still a step in the right direction and I’m glad to see Barbie stepping up their game

Something that I want to say is, I love how Barbie is being diverse. That being said, their quality and how they manufacture is terrible. As with many companies, they manufacture in China. This means that thousands of workers, men, women, and children are being overworked and underpaid. This is something I hate: companies trying to be all about 'feminism' when thousands of women aren't getting fair wages. I just want to say, we need to be more mindful about what we consume. (Also, it isn't just Mattel doing this. I'm sure MGA, Moose, Just Play, etc. are doing this too).

Ok but why does Curvy Ken look like literally every normal body shape ever

I really just wanna go back to those days and miss being younger 😭😭😭😭 I remember having a lot of Barbies when I was younger. I’ve been knew that Barbie and Ken broke up because I saw at the end of the Cali Girl commercial and seen a glimpse of Blaine. They did went to school together at International High. I prefer the 2000 Barbies, lol the only way to go back for now. So ready for the time travel to come it’s way.

ngl i am so focused and bratz and monster high that i forgot barbie existed until this video dont attack me

*bursts through door* IM HERE CLAWDEENA TELL ME EVERYTHING😭💕💕

I can't understand how having a diverse barbie with a different body type is a bad thing like I get it kids don't really mind playing with the blood skinny barbie but is just so exciting to find a doll that has something in common with you. I don't think Mattel is trying to be a "justice warrior" but rather showing kids that are or have friends that look different "hey, it is normal to be this way" or "look is a doll that looks like you or your friend" and that is a wonderful move we should be giving support to.

I love the fact that they came out with barbies with different body types, and eventually ones like the prosthetic leg, wheelchair, vitiligo! There is so much more diversity then there was when I was a kid. I remember being excited when they came out with the new dolls. Mattel is definitely taking the right steps to being more inclusive, tho there is still a lot more to go for full inclusiveness. I haven't seen the Extra dolls until now, but I think they look rad af and would totally buy them.

Obviously it’s amazing that Barbie is making more realistic body types, but I can’t stand when people say that thin dolls like Barbie are the reason that girls have body issues. Male toys often have giant muscles yet you don’t see young boys stressing out about having that body. There’s obviously other factors that cause these issues, so people need to stop using Barbie as a scapegoat.

Loved the BMR and now the Barbie Extra line .Once Mattel realizes kids want more fashionable dolls, blind packs,and articulation maybe kids will choose Barbie over LOL and Rainbow High type dolls.

I'm pretty impressed by the quality of the Barbie vlogs, I wasn't expecting a fashion doll brand to have discussions like that. I know more children's media, is blatantly discussing it instead of trying to subtly show it, so it's an overall trend and not something only done by Barbie. But it's nice to see the effort put into content like that. Media is not the end all for children's development, but it does play a role. I am absolutely in love with the Extras line! The fashion that I've seen coming out for modern fashion dolls, in general, is so fantastic. I really wish some of the Fashion dolls brands would release a matching outfit for the dolls, like American Doll. It's probably out of scope, but can you imagine being just able to purchase some of those jackets in an adult size?

I always love that barbie tried and listen to fans. People can criticize barbie and they're entitled to their opinions but as least barbie tries to show and add diversity unlike other companies who say they will but never do or just ignore the consumers/fans.

Barbie is literally the Queen of dolls and toys everywhere. 👑

Amazing video. I am a Barbie girl through and through. I am so grateful for other small doll companies who made diverse dolls with different hair textures like Malaville and who made dolls with different body styles like Lammily because they are why Mattel is diverse now. I love your cosplay look. So gorgeous!!! I love MGA but totally get that some parents want a more PG fashion doll and that's what Barbie EXTRA can offer. Also I wonder if MGA found out about the Barbie EXTRA launch then made their EXTRA music video before the release. I mean it is so on the nose! BUT even if Mattel is blatantly ripping off OMG... I'm happy for the healthy competition. Makes Barbie more fun and lets be real MGA has nothing to worry about. They are SO innovative! Thanks for this very detailed video. Props to Mattel for keeping Barbie relevant all these years.

This video was amazing! The cuts to old footage, the history (and gossip) of the toy line?! I loved it. I learned tons. So grateful you put this together... Great job!

i was about 9when the barbie vlogs came out, and whenever i watched them i always felt better and like some one understood me.

OMG your cosplay makeup is PERFECT!!You are so funny and awesome!

i absolutely adore the look today!!!! that Barbie extra you matched with and the girl with the multicolored hair as well are my two faves so far! I do wish they had ankle joints tho lmao. I love when you do in-depth history vids like this, I know it must be tons of work, but I love it as a long-time follower of these dolls and their evolutions! Barbie Fashionistas and MTM dolls got me back into the Barbie world and honestly, I hope they keep moving the direction they seem to be going!

Omg i'm early, finally gosh Clawdeena looks like a doll herself 😍

Barbie Dolls are so popular😍 BUT I STILL MISS EVER AFTER HIGH!!!😭😭😭

the pic with the boy that has freckles looks so handsome 😭🤚😖

I just want to say a big thank you! I started watching your videos over lockdown and now I'm just finishing my first term at university, I'm focusing my first visual essay (aka just a more boring youtube video haha) on fashion dolls as a collector item! Your videos have been such an inspiration in rekindling my love for fashion dolls and also so helpful in teaching me new things about the dolls I love! Thank you so much!! 💜

Okay the quality of this video is immaculate!!💕💕

Awesome history of Barbie, and cool do see all the different changes that have happened over the years. It's great they have become more inclusive and am looking forward to seeing more dolls released in the Barbie Extra series with more attention to detail on the outfits. Love your video 😍💗

Love your videos! They bring me so much nostalgia 💖

Ya, I'm not feeling those Pixel eyes lol😅I think that these dolls definitely have inspiration from the LOL OMG Dolls, like the boots of one of them look exactly like Swag's, the one you cosplayed as (Btw you look great🤩🤩🤩) definitely looks like candylicious, so on and so forth...Glad they have representation for the lgbt community and different races, along with disabilities, so kudos to them for that! I'm just waiting for lol omg to do that, like Bratz has but I really want them to confirm that busy and speedster are a couple or something, but baby steps lol. I love that they feature boys in the commercials as well, as I am a boy #representation 😋😋❤

Your videos are AMAZING!!🥺💗💗💗

As usual, very well done... insightful, objective and informative.

I VIVIDLY remember Barbie's breakup with Ken. I was swept up in the drama. xD This is SUCH an awesome video. Great job! :D

I love your videos! when i watch them i can really tell how much work and research you had to do! 😊💜

I’m finally early

I do, but In the Barbie Extra dolls, their accessories just seem thrown on, especially on the purple haired one.

Yay a new video. Been loving the consistency.

I love your content! Prime toy journalism and i greatly appreciate the in depth research and fun content. Bravo homie!!!

As a life long Barbie collector I think you did a great job ;-) Love your channel and I appreciate how much research and effort you put into your video's. Keep up the good work.

Hey Clawdeena!!! I absolutely love you and your channel so much! You’re so beautiful and I enjoy watching your videos so much! I’m a 19 year old girl, and sometimes I feel like a child when buying dolls but you really inspired me to start collecting dolls again. Starting with Rainbow High! Your reviews are detailed and informational and you really know how to sell a product even if you aren’t being sponsored haha! Keep doing what you’re doin gurl cause I absolutely love it so much!!!

i’ve been waiting for this one!!!

About to rewatch this a couple more times after I’m done sharing! 💗💗💗

SOLD! SOLD! SOLD! You totally sold me on these dolls babes! Has a long time Barbie collector, fan and support this video made me excited for Barbie’s new era 👱🏾‍♀️ Thank you for this! 💗🌈

I love the Barbie Extra doll with the colorful french braids. Definitely need that one. 😍

My unpopular opinion if I think Barbie is a great role model she keeps healthy and conquers anything she sets her eyes on. Yes, she may be a workaholic but that doesn’t stop her for caring for her sisters, boyfriend and whatever crazy adventure she’s going on. I hate how people hate on her for such shallow reasons as her looks.

You are literally STUNNING

That's fun to see my coworker Henry, the face painter. He was the face painter for the Sharpay doll on the High School Musical line. I had to explain to him how I needed a 'sideways' glance for Sharpay's eyes to reinforce her shifty personality.

Such a great video!!✨✨👏🏽💘

Clawdeena, thank you for such an informative and interesting video about Barbie! I've played with Barbie since the early 1970's (yes, I'm old) and it was really nice to see the early Barbie faces again! Plus I learned things I hadn't heard before, such as the story that Barbie and Ken broke up but are back together now. In a way it's kind of creepy that Ken is named after the real Barbie's brother! I do love any Barbie that is articulated, stiff legged and armed dolls have very little playability to me, but I'm not sure the Extra is worth the extra cash. Thank you once again, I am definitely subscribing!

Love the thorough video and your look!

Oooh! My pic made it on your vid! (the group pic of Fashionistas). Awesome!!! Great vid (and not by bias lol).

Hi oh I love your videos they’re the best and I hope you can make more every day

I love this new addition to the barbie line!! Im literally just now finding out about it. I love the attention to detail with the clothes accessories and jewelry. I am already very interested in adding at least two of them to my collection

Barbie is forever an icon. 💖 i just hope the quality on all of her dolls improves with time.

IM EARLY ❤️😭 I love you clawdeena!

Honestly, I am in love with the Barbie Extra dolls. I so wish that I would have enough courage to ask my mom if I could buy one, but I'm way too scared to ask because at my day and age, it isnt really accepted for me to have one. :(

Happy thanksgiving Clawdeena love ur style

I started my Barbie Extra collection with the black girl with the rainbow coat so far, thought it was definitely extra that her puppy has removeable shades! Lol Great video! I love to see the more obscure Barbie collector dolls too, more please!

Imagine being the kid of the creators of barbie. Bloody epic parents haha

Honestly, I don't get why people have to be so criticizing about the barbie EXTRA line, I think it's a nice, pretty line of dolls that resemble the influencers we have today. They wear popular and trendy fashions, sport cool makeup, and have different types of skin tones and body types. Like seriously, I don't get the hate, it's a doll? I bet people would still criticize barbie if they made a more realistic kind of doll that represents how everyone has been feeling this year. When I was a kid I never remember thinking about the body type or skin color the doll had, I simply wanted to be creative and style the doll in various fashions and come up with stories for them to play out in.

Been waiting and it pays of! Can’t waittt

I remember seeing the BMR 1959 yellow top doll in my local Barnes & Noble so they were sometimes sold in stores.

..love or hate????she is the Queen..only LOVE🥰

I’m honestly love how Barbie’s face looks now. I love the soft makeup, closed mouth look

When you already know all these facts

5 min tho. Btw i loooovvvveeee ur channel omg yasssssdddd

Wow I am kinda late but early!I am a big fan btw!

I love the new line of diverse dolls and honestly wish I was young again to make stories for each doll and play with my sister all over again lol I would totally collect them

Love your videos! 😍 Also idk if anyone else saw this but in the newest episode of Rainbow High's series you can actually see one of the dolls on the Series 2 boxes in a clip (the hot pink one with the pigtails), just so you know!

i personally love barbie, even though i don't play with them I just want to style them and put them on a shelf so they look pretty. My mom doesn't really like that idea but idrc i like dolls, I actually wana be a doll collector myself

Love your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I really liked this video. I would like to see more of this. :")

Thanks for such great content first of all! Personally I started collecting dolls as of September this year and I love the diversity barbie has to offer, my first purchase was Tate from the BMR collection and it was because of his freckles, I think is important to acknowledge the huge improvement the brand has had throughout their existence.

Your content is *chefs kiss*

I think barbie is trying to go with what's trendy and not just reliable stuff anymore, because of the competition and nothing else. They are shaking in their boots and know if they don't step it up they might be forgotten. Lol omg and Rainbow hight are giving Barbie a run for her money...

Barbie is all about making a statement these days rather than having actual quality.I get they want to be diverse and inclusive but quality shouldn't have to suffer because of that.The Barbie's these days feel much more cheaper.

Omgggg, you kinda make me want one now!!😭

Awesome video! Extra Nikki (black doll) is back on Walmart.com I ordered yesterday! Yay!!

I love your videos 😍

Not First!!! :D)) ( love your videos! Also your makeup is AWESOME! xd )
