You're back! Another great and well-researched video. The bend and snap articulation definitely has its charm. It's nostalgic, and it looks nicer than than the MTM joints. But the leaking plasticizer is a nightmare... My Generation Girl Mari has it, and there's just no way to make it stop. It also makes pants sticky from the inside! I now have her on display with tissues around her legs.

Absolutely insane that their idea to test the PVC was to fish Barbie shoes out of pigs. When I heard that I was like HUH 😧

when you upload a video especially when its on barbie i get so so so excited!! i always thought the lack of bend and snap for the modern fashionistas was only due to lessen manufacturing cost but now i know theres also a little bit of sustainability with that (still wish fashionistas were articulated tho!!) i never really thought of the mechanism of bend n snap but it is fascinating especially how far its evolved to the articulation options we have now. also i hope you'll do a video focusing on the so-in-style line ₍ᐢ..ᐢ₎♡

Wow so many changes. Lots of info, learned much! I like the bend and move, and pivotal bodies best. I find the MTM have too many joints for my liking, they move too much and are hard to keep in place. I also don't like how shoes look on them. I also love the model muse body because it's more proportional, looks gorgeous, no ugly mechanism at the knees and elbows, looks great in a box. I remember as kids in the 80's, patience pulling tight pants up was part of the play. Foot first, them inch it up gradually using your nails. We learned some things took time but were worth it in the end.

Nice video! Can you talk about the Blythe fashion doll? It was created in 1972 and was initially only sold for one year in the United States by the now-defunct toy company Kenner (later purchased by Hasbro). In 2001, the Japanese toy company Takara (now known as Takara Tomy) began producing new editions of Blythe dolls. Blythe was used in a television advertising campaign by Parco, the fashion branch of Seibu Department Stores in Japan and was an instant hit. In 2021, the last Takara Neo Blythe was produced. In 2022, Good Smile Company became the manufacturer of Blythe dolls under the production helm of Cross World Connections.

It was interesting to hear about the whys behind leg and articulation changes. I'm not one of those collectors who thinks every doll must be super posable, I like the stiffer silkstone and model muse bodies as well as the playline pivotal and made-to-moves, but I do hate how bent knees look on curvy made-to-move Barbies. It's the ugliest knee joint I've ever seen.

I've only known the mtm double jointed knees so that's my default setting for articulation. However i remember my mom uncovering a box of older Barbies with the bend & snap knees, which unfortunately had gotten large green patches on them over the years. Never knew it was because of prefabricated plastics, we thought it was mold!

The bend and snap knees have their pros and cons. I love the seamless look, but most time the joint ages and becomes ineffective, sometimes the pvc part also start ripping at the back. I think the best joint are the swivel joints, or the double knee joint like RH which are more seamless when compared to the very bulbous double joints of barbie MTM. Another great video!

Child me loved chewing on bend and snap legs, sad kids these days will never have the same experience. Maybe it's better that way tho lol. Ironically i am from germany, so the law could not keep me from consuming plasticizers. My fave knee articulation are the 2009 fashionistas, they are so underrated, they were soo satisfying to pose

This was a very interesting retrospective, thanks! I have a question - you mentioned a Made to Move athletic body. I'm familiar with the original, petite, tall, and curvy variations, but can you tell me more/do you have any examples of an athletic one? I know there's the Wonder Woman/WWE dolls, but they don't have quite that level of articulation. I'd love to know if there's something with both! Thanks!

There's a Target-exclusive wave of MTM (at least in the US) that has one with the athletic body type (Brooklyn with the orange top and pink leggings). My Froggy Stuff has a review on this doll, if you're interested!

I grow up in the 2000s and I love the belly button body with the classic rubbery bendable legs Now I understand that for the dressing difficulties and an easier production they must belong to the past But i don’t like the total stiffness of the majority of current playline Barbie dolls, the budget dolls should have plastic legs with a simple knee articulation at least, and then make the deluxe dolls with more articulation I’m not a fan of the Made to Move body but i understand the charm of endless posability

very interesting!! i always thought the rollbacks on articulation in the 2010's was all about being cheap, didn't think about "getting older younger"/growing out of toys quicker. lowkey i still think they were just cheaping out but theres a lot more going on behind the scenes then it seems. cool!
@HaveYouHeardDolls

Oh, they were definitely trying to cut costs in the guise of demographic changes! It's a lot cheaper to rotocast a stiff, hollow leg than it is to make articulated legs, especially the bend and snap legs.
