I really like Barbie Fashionista 107’s silver hair and side cut, but what I do not like is that her outfit is peak chud. Luckily some new clothes arrived in the mail today and going with the theme ‘if you can’t be fashionable, be bold’ I did a switch. Results varied photo wise, but in person she’s now a desk display barbie until the next turn over instead of in the box of shame.
Toys are a form of media! I should put up my vinyl toys sometime with glamour shots. To at least remember their line names.
The 2021 Fashionistas are pretty great. I’ve already gotten most of what I want in the wave, with just Kens 167, 163, and 162 left that are on their way. Mostly I use them as stand-in action figures for the stories I write because for some weird reason a lot of the fashionistas look a lot like characters I’ve created and I don’t really object, you know? It’s fun.
Anyway, here’s what I got of this wave so far:
Also, pleasingly, these Barbies have some neat new packaging! They come in basically really big pencil cases which I will definitely be getting more use out of in the future.
