I’m a white gal, born in 1964. Live Action Christie was my favorite Barbie and is the only one I still own from my childhood. I remember choosing her at the store because she had the best outfit and the most beautiful lipstick. I still love her but, dang, lost that cool outfit somewhere along the way. I still kick myself about that!
My mom was born in ‘63. Her obsession with dolls from her childhood was what got me (an extreme tomboy) into collecting toys from a really young age. I always love learning more about them. She was a big Christy fan too, said the same thing about her outfit too. She doesn’t own her original doll, but she got a replacement years later. Too cool, I love the vibes.
I am a white gal born in 1964 too I never had a Christie back them but I had a Julia in the nurses uniform, I loved all my Barbies, still have my Julia and others from my childhood.
As a little girl (white American) I wanted the black vet Barbie so I had a doll that looked like some of my friends. I was DEVESTATED that she was just a different color but otherwise looked exactly the same. She was nothing like my beautiful friends. Years later I was a care giver and helping one of the kids clean up when I picked up a black Barbie. She had her own face mold and beautiful tight curls in an afro. I cried. If it matter that much to my white behind I can't even imagine how much it mattered to black and brown kids.
It’s okay. We really don’t care, it’s our parents that care the most. We’d play with anything and any color doll because we use our imaginations to turn them into whatever they want
I’m a lighter skinned Black woman but I wanted Christie dolls cause she looked like my friends, cousins and women in my family. I still love her! She had the best outfits!
Texan white girl here. One fateful night in '98 my folks decided to take the family to McDonald's for dinner. I had never been there before, so my four-year-old mind was blown when I got a tiny Christie doll with my meal! She was my first Barbie and I absolutely LOVED her and took her everywhere with me. Sadly, at a friend's sleepover, I woke to discover that Christie was missing! I thought I'd never see her again, and was genuinely upset she was never found. Twenty-ish years later, I randomly remembered her and found and bought one off ebay. I cannot describe to you the feeling I had when she arrived and I got to pull open the bag and hold her again. I have a collection of actual dolls now, but she's the most special to me, after all, she was my first one!
I was dreaming about Christie as a kid, but I grew up in the middle of nowhere in russia and even basic Barbies were luxury. As an adult, black Barbies are the first I purchased to start my collection. Christie as amazing, so as Theresa. I love them the most. Only wish they made Kira popular too
OH A Kira fan. I probably was the only person in my little Caribbean country with a Kira. Can't remember what line she was from but she had a metallic purple bikini.
LOVE this video! Christie was always my favorite as a kid (which some people found odd since I'm white), maybe because I had so many strong Black female figures throughout my life. I'm so sad Christie sort of disappeared from the toy shelves in recent years.
Amazing video! I really love both christie and nikki, wish mattel would let them coexist since both the asha and desiree face sculpt are some of my favorites. Actually, i want barbie to have friends again in general 😭 it feels they never release dolls with names anymore, which i do get since everyone can be barbie... But having different characters was also fun
I was born in 1969 and grew up playing and adoring Barbie and Christie during their “Superstar” era. I remember receiving “ Black Barbie” and “Golden dreams Christie for Christmas the same year. I just had to give black Barbie a name!!! I remember somehow owning a baby book of names and I’d always refer to that book to rename my dolls lol. So, Black Barbie suddenly became “ Juanita” and Golden Dreams Christie became “Clarissa” 👍
My child hood was in the 60's and I had the Talking Christie doll and the dark version of Francie. What a delight to stroll down memory lane and get educated too. My Talking Christie's voice box is a bit distorted and her right leg won't stay in it's socket,however, she displays quite well in her lawn chair. Love your presentation from start to finish.
Oh my gosh! That Superstar Christie from 1977 is my all-time favorite! I truly believe that the yellow dress she wore is the reason why yellow is my favorite color to this day. Thank you for my trip down memory lane.
Love this! Thank you. I had dolls from the Shani line and LOVED their Black features and textured hair. Also, the Christie in the Barbie clip you showed was significantly lighter than doll 😒
I was another white girl who loved Christie-I was just someone who liked dolls that didn’t look like me, because I could make more “characters” that way. Specifically I remember the green musical Christie (the one with the key tar) and Purple Panic Christie. I adored those.
I was a bit disappointed that Christie and Teresa were not present or even mentioned in the Barbie movie. I understand that nowadays Barbie’s don’t really have names and such, but I mean if Allen and midge got mentioned why not the others? A bit miffed honestly.
In Italy, back in the early 90s I had a beautiful Christie dressed in a United colours of Benetton outfit (electric blue and orange). Sad not to see her in this video! She was marvellous!
My first and only Christie doll was the Bead Blast McDonalds version of her. She didn't come with extra beads though except the ones in her beautiful black hair. I loved her dress and boots which were pink. I miss her and I want my Christie back. She was a beautiful doll.
I love Christie and Teresa because blue is my favorite color and usually they get the line variations of the outfits in blue (like Sun Sensation Barbie, for example) 💙
As Brad said Christie is the greatest. One of my beloved Barbie Characters I was really sad when they discontinued her. Christie is a very important character in Barbie s world she not have ever been replaced with Nikki
Awesome and informative video🙌 Also, so interesting that you noted the lowkey romantic chemistry between Christie and Barbie in the Great puppy adventure movie. And that’s because there is a somewhat small fandom on Twitter, who passionately ship Margot’s Robbie’s Barbie & America Ferrera’s Gloria character from the recent movie ☕️😂🤔
What’s kind of sad is that I can kind of remember walking down the aisles of the ToysRUs where I lived and saw that most of the remaining dolls were Christie. The shop bought them in lower quantify but they always remained on the shelves :( I really wanted other things so never bought one. Also the Barbie I played with most as a kid were Ariel and Jasmine Disney Barbies from the 1990s
What an excellent video! I really appreciate your commitment to research & I thank you so much for taking the time & energy to showcase this beautiful barbie. I'm 62 & my daughter is 27 & we absolutely adore you & watch all of your videos. Sending you so much love from the USA! 💜
Benetton Christie was one of my first ever Barbie dolls, and a core character in my own little Barbie world. In hindsight, I wonder where my parents got her, since I barely remember ever seeing a Christie on shelves. :/ Scandinavian toy stores in the 90s were kind of notorious for only stocking the white dolls, and my quest for Stacie’s Black friend Janet ended up involving getting a relative to buy her in the US. And that’s not to mention my to this day fruitless search for a Marina. They put them in the catalogues, damnit, why were they not on shelves?!?
Awesome video! I LOVE Christie! Christie and Teresa were my go to Barbie dolls. I have so many of the Christie dolls shown in this video. I like the Christie mold from the 90s, but the Asha mold is my favorite for the character. Please do a history of Teresa video next. 😊
Wonderful and informative vid. I've been learning a lot more about Christie and barbie history in general and I love how you make these videos, they're so well done. I really do hope you make a vid like this for Teresa because she is my favorite from the barbie line
I had a Talking Julia in the early 1970's (she had the same head mold, despite Diahann Carroll--who played the title TV character from 1968-71-- looking more like TNT Barbie facially).
Christie is my favorite of barbies friends! Also, the hardest barbie to find in any one set from the 80's and 90's and most expensive! The latest one added to my collection is Rappin Rockin Christie!
Please do a video on Kira and Thersa !!! As a kid, I didn't have Barbies so now I have started collecting them as well other culturally different or historical dolls. Love your channel and your favor. Keep doing what you do!
I remember Christie being Barbie's friend when I was a child. I always got Theresa and Christie mixed up. I'd love to see a video on Theresa. Kira would be cool to see as well. My mom's name is Kirra, so she was really excited when Kira came out. She didn't collect Barbies, but she bought 4 Kira dolls, which are now in my collection. I find it interesting how drastically Kira's face mold changed.
I love your videos! You are responsible for why I started finding Barbie fascinating and collecting her. The story about these dolls is so interesting and exciting. Thank you for always doing the work to give us these great videos.
I just recently found your channel and I have binge watched so many videos. My mom passed away last October and when I was a kid she always made sure I had every Barbie I ever wanted. I was in Atlantic Canada pre online shopping and she would go to Maine to buy me Barbies that weren't sold in my town. At the time we didn't even have a Toys R Us here! I find it so comforting watching your channel. A lot of your favorite dolls were ones I played with as a kid in the early 90s!
brad is such a huuunk!! IDK why i was obsessed with black male dolls bratz or barbie i preferred them to ken, Cameron, dylan, etc. maybe reminded me of my dad 😅
I collect vintage Barbie dolls, and one of my favorites is Malibu Christie. I managed to get the 1975 version, which has the most beautiful dark chocolate colored skin. The other Malibu Christie's don't look nearly as stunning imo. I also have a tnt Julia doll that has the hair which faded into burgundy. To be honest the shade is GORGEOUS and I prefer it to the original black. Brad is like my holy Grail Barbie doll. His face mold is 1000% better than Ken's from that time. Haven't been able to find one under $100. I've heard of Kitty Perkins before. She seems like a badass. At one point she designed over 5% of all the Barbie fashions- and that is A LOT!
Props for giving recommendations where to go to see Black creators speaking on this topic as well. I'm white myself but that's always a nice touch! I hate how in some countries black Barbie dolls are rare, probably just understocked with the idea that people from less racially diverse countries wouldn't want them as much which just isn't true. Also wow I hate how whitewashed the more modern iterations of Christie look??
I'm white from New Brunswick, Canada. I had what you showed as All American Christie, except that here she was School Cool Christie (1991). Being in Canada, she also had a French title, Cégepienne. Cégep is basically prep school, and it's very common in Québec for folks to go from high school to Cégep before college or uni.
The Shani collection was such a big part of my Barbie collection growing up. They were so gorgeous and the Afrocentric features and contemporary styles really represented the culture of the time. The Soul Train collection was very fun. 🎉
My sister had that Florida Vacation Christie doll! She had several of these dolls. I always LOVED her Pop Sensation Barbie with the Asha face. God, this video was such a nostalgia trip for me.
Growing up I had mostly black Myscene dolls, but I had one black Barbie (who was the mother to all the Myscene dolls of course )and a black ken doll with the Jamal face mold. Seeing that face mold took me backkkkkk. All my dolls would date that one boy doll in my various storylines and it was always super messy. He’d be cheating on one doll with the next. Those were suchhhh good times. Seeing that literally just sent me into orbit 😂😂❤️😭😭
I love this channel. Currently trying to find and re acquire some of my childhood Barbies and this series is really going a long way to help me identify a lot of them that I couldn't remember the names of. Thank you! From this video I had Sparkle Beach Christie, Sparkle Beach Steven, Butterfly Art Christie, Beyond Pink Christie, Hollywood Nails Christie, and Barbie Beach Fun Christie.
Your very respectful to other people. I like how you told viewers to go to black women channels to get the full view point on black barbie. Not to many people give that much respect to other people experiences
I loved when it was Barbie and Friends and every doll has there own name and backstory. Then nowadays where is essentially Barbie and the Multiverse where is red hair -, Tall-, Fat Barbie and some peopel call Ken Male Barbie, is kind of sad . I really enjoyed your video where you highlight each Mattel doll Character.
I love Christie!! I have a few in my collection. One is a reproduction, one still original with the hair turned red and the third one is also original, but I rerooted her hair and gave her ankle long black hair.
I’m a white gal, born in 1964. Live Action Christie was my favorite Barbie and is the only one I still own from my childhood.

Little white girl (1966) and I loved my Christie dolls. I was a Barbie fanatic! I think I still have a Malibu Christie in storage.
What a shame that you lost the outfit, but that’s still cool!

@@marycallahan6394My friend had Julia. She was just a boring nurse, though. I was into the psychedelic, dancing, partying, fun Christy 😂.
It's so sad that Mattel never used the Christie face for the Fashionistas. They only used it for No.97: Meow Mix.
I literally agree!
There is a new Christie water play

As a "woman of color" or whatever the heck you people call us these days, why did you _cry?_
That's a little...much...
@@1_star_reviews who's we speak for yourself there are alot of black and brown kids that got excited when they got a doll that looked like them
Oh my goodness Christie does need a comeback but also so do all of Barbie’s friends. I miss the days when all the dolls would have names
I’m a lighter skinned Black woman but I wanted Christie dolls cause she looked like my friends, cousins and women in my family. I still love her! She had the best outfits!

So sad
The fact that the Christie's dark hair turned red is actually kind of cool. I thought it looked beautiful red ♥️
as a black kid of the 70s I don't remember noticing the difference in face molds. i just loved the clothes mostly great video

Thank you!
Same; she’s gorgeous. Any idea what that specific Christie is?
@@marvelousTUDShe is Beyond Pink Christie (Beyond Pink was the name of Barbie, Teresa and Christie's band).
Thanks!@@martamarinomexuto1326

omg the jewel girl line were my FAVORITES!!! At 31 years old, I often think of those dolls still :D Thank you for that bit of joyful nostalgia for me!

I love Christie too, my first one was Florida Vacation Christie 💙💙💙
That face after you talk about Christie being replaced with Nikki was hysterical. I had to watch it a few times.
Christe, Steven and Teresa omg my childhood is crying tears of nostalgic joy!
I am in love woth black Barbies! It was so fun getting to know more about them! Thank you
Joeys room never looked more cleaned up 😂

A nice video about Christie! You should make some about her other friends too, like Pj, Whitney etc.
I didn’t get to have an African American Barbie doll until I was an adult. My first was WWE Superstar Naomi. ❤
Please do a video on Kira and Thersa !!! As a kid, I didn't have Barbies so now I have started collecting them as well other culturally different or historical dolls. Love your channel and your favor. Keep doing what you do!
I had a Beauty Secrets, Christie doll back in the late 70s. Her outfit was blue.
I loved receiving my Christie dolls growing up in the 80s and I remember being so excited when Steven first came out!
I love all the type of Barbie's friends, also Christie nowadays named Nikki❤❤❤😊

Really enjoyed the video. Christie is also a favorite mine. Thank you for the thorough history on her and Black doll history!
I loved Christie too. I thought she was so cute and I loved the colors they used for her.
I love your videos! You are responsible for why I started finding Barbie fascinating and collecting her. The story about these dolls is so interesting and exciting. Thank you for always doing the work to give us these great videos.
Do you have a video that’s a deep dive on just the face molds? I’m so curious to know the changes over the years and how they differ. 💜💗
OMG the old footage of you is the cutest thing ever
I just recently found your channel and I have binge watched so many videos. My mom passed away last October and when I was a kid she always made sure I had every Barbie I ever wanted. I was in Atlantic Canada pre online shopping and she would go to Maine to buy me Barbies that weren't sold in my town. At the time we didn't even have a Toys R Us here!

brad is such a huuunk!! IDK why i was obsessed with black male dolls bratz or barbie i preferred them to ken, Cameron, dylan, etc. maybe reminded me of my dad 😅
im still mad and pissed she got replaced with nikki i will a always be a christie girl
SAME.
Please do Teresa
And Kira/ Marina next
Your videos are always fantastic 🎉
I collect vintage Barbie dolls, and one of my favorites is Malibu Christie. I managed to get the 1975 version, which has the most beautiful dark chocolate colored skin. The other Malibu Christie's don't look nearly as stunning imo.
I also have a tnt Julia doll that has the hair which faded into burgundy. To be honest the shade is GORGEOUS and I prefer it to the original black.
Brad is like my holy Grail Barbie doll. His face mold is 1000% better than Ken's from that time. Haven't been able to find one under $100.
I've heard of Kitty Perkins before. She seems like a badass. At one point she designed over 5% of all the Barbie fashions- and that is A LOT!
Christie is so pretty! Her and PJ are the most beautiful dolls I've always thought
"she replaced christie in the sun jewels line. she was probably trying to stop christie from stealing her face mold" lmao i laughed out loud
So glad you made this video, Christie is amazing, love the talking version of her and Julia and Stacey
Hi Joey glad to see you here
I have a Superstar Christie repro and I love her so much.
Ps.: I would love a video abou Teresa!
I remember having a paper doll book with Barbie, Ken, Cara, and Curtis.
I got the black Barbie with the red dress for Christmas the year she debuted. Her short natural hair was my favorite thing about her!
Props for giving recommendations where to go to see Black creators speaking on this topic as well. I'm white myself but that's always a nice touch!
I hate how in some countries black Barbie dolls are rare, probably just understocked with the idea that people from less racially diverse countries wouldn't want them as much which just isn't true.
Also wow I hate how whitewashed the more modern iterations of Christie look??
Bombastic Side eye 👀 (to Nikki taking her crown)
😂😂😂
I ❤ Christie and your love for Christie gives me life. Good vibes ❤
I just bought a Malibu Christie repro on eBay. She’s absolutely gorgeous.
Great video as usual! I'd love a Theresa or Marina one too :)
I'm white from New Brunswick, Canada. I had what you showed as All American Christie, except that here she was School Cool Christie (1991). Being in Canada, she also had a French title, Cégepienne. Cégep is basically prep school, and it's very common in Québec for folks to go from high school to Cégep before college or uni.
Love Christie ❤ In my childhood I had Trendy and Brendy Christie, she was so cool! Wish I still have her
The Lights and Lace Christie has been ❤ my favorite Christie.
My favorite Christie is Superstar Christie, even though she has the same face mold as Barbie. Golden Dreams Christie is on my wishlist!!!
I had a Julia doll! I adored her!
Excellent content as per usual!
The Shani collection was such a big part of my Barbie collection growing up. They were so gorgeous and the Afrocentric features and contemporary styles really represented the culture of the time. The Soul Train collection was very fun. 🎉
OMG! The little girl on the Barbie television commercial, that’s Marsha Brady! The blonde girl on the left is Maureen McCormick❤
Thank you for helping me go from a pain, but I’m suffering right now
Again, lovely soul Joey. Dolls helped me get through my childhood. They are amazing healing tools.
My sister had that Florida Vacation Christie doll! She had several of these dolls. I always LOVED her Pop Sensation Barbie with the Asha face. God, this video was such a nostalgia trip for me.

From this video I had Sparkle Beach Christie, Sparkle Beach Steven, Butterfly Art Christie, Beyond Pink Christie, Hollywood Nails Christie, and Barbie Beach Fun Christie.
Great video as a always, thanks Joey! I had the splash n' colour Christie she was stunning✨✨ I'm always straight on to ebay after your videos!! 😂
OMG! The actress who played Marsha Brady was in that Christy commercial!
Excellent job! You just made Christie relevant again.
I've always thought the 90s barbie looked like one of the Jackson sisters. Like Janet.
Your very respectful to other people. I like how you told viewers to go to black women channels to get the full view point on black barbie.
