One of the tiers should've been titled On Pointe!

I was thinking the exact same thing OMG!!!!!

The ballet dolls are really cute. Unfortunately, I'm not a huge fan of the molded on tops and painted leggings. I would just get them just for the head so I could attach them to a Made To Move body.

Same. I saw one with the Daya face mode and almost got for that alone but I have so many Daya’s and that’s just a waste of a doll. Do kids want dolls with purple legs? Did I miss the memo?

I absolutely adore nutcracker ballerina Barbies

Ballet ranks just below fairies as my favourite Barbie theme, it just seems so magical! Lighter than Air is my favourite classic ballerina doll but Barbie as Juliet ranks even higher despite not having the classic silhouette, she’s just stunning though. Also adore Barbie as Titania and the Swan Lake movie dolls, for obvious fairy related reasons xD

Lighter Than Air is my favorite! I've had the christmas ornament version of her since I was very little. I want to save money to buy her full size (she's porcelain!)

24:13 24:33 I used to have these dolls and the reason why their legs look like that is because they had this gimmick where you would push them down and they would do a ballet move(zero idea what it was called 😅)

Oh I can't wait! I'm a sucker for ballet dolls. ❤

My favorites are: Marizapan, Prima Ballerina, the anniversary one with the retro face, Lighter than Air, Swan Princess, the snowflakes one, Flower Ballerina, Nutcracker 1st, Peppermint Candycane, Odette. Not in that order. I like the retro faces because I grew up with them and they have a special place in my heart. There is one you didn’t show called “Barbie The Swan Birds of Beauty”. I believe she is a Ballerina also and she’s really pretty. And I forgot about Titania Midsummer Nights Dream Ballerina Barbie. I really love her 💜. I have an idea for another ranking you can do if you wish. It’s all the Goddess Barbie’s. I believe there are at least 20 of them from different series. Anyhow I enjoyed this and hope you have a wonderful rest of your evening & weekend 💜

Oh that’s a good one! I’ll add it to the list!

1. I love ballet dolls. It is my favourite doll theme and if I had infinite money and space I would buy so many of these. As for tier names here are mine: 1. Primidona (perfect ) 2. Soloist (good ) 3. Junior Dancer (okay ) 4. Stage Fright (Head Empty ) 5. Clumsy/Couldn't stick the landing (bad but it gets worse ) 6. Two left feet (burn it )

@@FaeryTaleDolls thank you.

I love all your doll ranking videos. Very informative. I don't know how far back you intended to go. However you missed 1975/76 "Ballerina Barbie". She was one of the last with the TNT face sculpts before they completely changed over to the "Superstar" face. Anyway, great video! Thanks!

Ballet isn't necessarily my theme either, but one thing I really appreciate about modern MTM ballerina dolls (like Nutcracker Ballerina of The Realms or 2021 Ballet Wishes) is that they have amazingly delicate hand poses and feet sculpts with tiny realistic looking toes. I feel like not many people know/talk about it (or maybe I'm just geeking about it lol).

Twirling Ballerina Barbie looks like she'd make a beautiful mermaid tbh Edit: The 3rd Ballet Wishes Barbie reminds me of Elina's Mermaidia aesthetic 👀 what's up with ballerina Barbies and mermaid vibes? lol

I actually thought that Wishes one reminded me of the first Elina Fairytopia doll as soon as I saw her!

It’s interesting that the older ballerina Barbies have knee articulation but not elbow articulation. When you coughed, my dog started barking and suddenly I started coughing too 😅😂 I’ve only seen a few I Love Lucy Barbies but have never seen a ballerina one! My only guess is that it must be from the show and based on clips I’ve seen, that pose she’s in is probably on purpose. The Lighter than Air Barbie truly is perfect, she looks like a painting! It’s not just you-Ballet Annika looks really off proportionally. I mean, they do have pink shoes 😂 Yeah that hideous set was the anniversary for the Nutcracker movie 😳 Odette is so beautiful 😍😍 I had no idea Barbie made so many ballet dolls, but I’ve never paid attention to them before.

I'm curious about how you would have ranked the 1975 Ballerina Barbie .

Just looked her up and I’d say okay/good depending on my mood that day lmao

Where are all the dolls from The Twelve Dancing Princesses but overall this was so fun, you cracked me up over Lucy which was perfect.

Not me forgetting that movie existed 😭 my bad

I feel like some are missing. I know off the top of my head there's a Juliet ballet doll in pink, and she is absolutely stellar. With a price to match.

@FaeryTaleDolls

Ай бұрын

Oh wow just looked her up and you’re right, she’s lovely

As someone who has a very surface level understanding of I Love Lucy, that doll is perfect. Lucy in the show is portrayed as a dreaming starlet (married to a star) and while she's charismatic and sometimes talented, more often than not (at least by my understanding), her attempts to become famous end in comedic wackiness and physical comedy as Lucy is too clumsy to succeed in most tasks. There's a very famous scene from the show where for some reason she is working in a chocolate factory and comedy ensues when she is unable to pack the choclates fast enough to keep up with a conveyor belt swiftly moving the chocolates past her. Lucy would be the type of character to attempt and fail to do ballet and make that face while doing it.

Have you seen the newest Color Reveal wave? They are ballerinas.

What about the 1976 Ballerina Barbie and Cara? I think they were the first released?
