This version is the prettiest out of the three holiday Barbies for 2021 in my opinion, and I definitely plan to buy it soon. I'm not so crazy about the dress, though, but that's no big deal because I would just put the doll in different clothing, anyway, and her design is impeccable. I also really love how how the hair is braided, especially.
Shes definitely pretty. I like the chest armor, and the sleeves and Mattel using any other color aside from red they did for a while. I dont really like the eyeshadow, and i do wish the hairstyle was pulled into an up do or something. I love the twists but with half up pony makes me think she's going to the gym. And I just wish they used a darker shade of red for her lips, but all in all I love the sculpt. My favorite one from this lineup is the kira 💖💖💖
Don't laugh but the pigtail Millie fashionista is really my plastic seratonin. I love her so much I have like 8 of her so far. It's like they finally fixed all my issues with the typical Millie play line screening. It's subtle, but it means a lot to me haha. Can't wait to get this June too. She's stunning!
I Absolutely love this doll but when is Barbie going to bring this level of quality to the play line Because Barbie extra is at decent place but it just doesn't complete with other doll lines so I feel like if Barbie really wants to complete with MGA they should reconsider BMR 1959 because according to the renderings of Wave 3 those dolls had a lot of potential or they could just simply release a new fashionista line and be consistent with the quality this time
I love that this happened for you. Makes me smile to hear how happy you sound. May pick one up, I usually like to get my holidays second hand if at all or cruise clearance, but for the June sculpt with baby hair I'll make an exception maybe. Baby hair is like my favorite thing that doll companies can do lately, it just makes me more excited about a doll.
I’m excited for the Kira and June faces this year. I’ll probably just get one, and I’m leaning towards Kira. It’s good to know the screening is not pixelated. The dress is decent, but not much for the price. These Holiday dolls cost $60 in Canada, so I’m hoping I can get one on sale. Funny that you say the Kira is Asian because I have heard people saying that, but also people saying she is Latina because they always do a Latina. I say make her what you want; I’m just glad they mix up the molds so we get variety.
Someone I knew use to refer to the “latina” variants as “tropical” as it covers more types of people. I often say “brunette” I definitely see this holiday Kira as asian. She is so beautiful.
June's face paint is amazing. And those brows! Why dresses no one wants for holiday Barbie vs cool winter outfits people actually wear? Because Mattel is that out of touch. They literally think we buy for the dress vs in spite of it. This isn't the 1980s. And these look like 80s dresses still
Thanks for the review. I actually really like Holiday Barbie's dress. I'm so glad they decided to make her "armour" detachable because I think the dress looks nicer when Barbie isn't armoured up. All three dolls are pretty and your June holiday Barbie is gorgeous but I ordered the Kira because I actually don't have any Barbies with the Kira face sculpt and I thought I needed to have one! :-)
I just got the Kira version, she's to me like the Latina variant but I love the idea of her being the Asian variant this year like SEA not EA. Anyways, I was wondering if her bodice came off, thank you for showing how easy it comes off.
I wish Mattel would give the holiday Barbie the articulated model muse body cause they never use that body anyways I really want the Kira and June ones definitely better than last years holiday Barbie.
It's funny, I've seen the Kira doll at 2 Walmarts, but not the other ones. I think she's stunning, I even love the dress. This is the first Holiday doll I've ever wanted, but I'm willing to wait for a sale hehe.
Omg I feel lucky to have found her at Ross for about $5!! she had no plastic packaging I think someone took her out with the cardboard backing piece still attached with all the little plastic fasteners, she had all her accessories and the clear shoes thank god! And they let me have her for SUPER cheap and this was during Christmas 2022 I feel more lucky to have her now!
I respectfully disagree. :-) I think the June face sculpt looks great on all different skintones! I have the June pink-haired fashionista and she has a light caramel skintone and I think she looks fabulous. I also have the Hudson Bay Barbie and she has a "caucasian" looking skintone and she's gorgeous as well.
She is absolutely Gorgeous! I mean the 2020 Holiday and this 2021 Holiday dolls have such good variants. I am in an absolute awe. Thank you a great thorough review! Keep doing the great work! Regards, Bish PS isnt that doll in the back June too? :p
I've seen her bald head being sold by some indonesian sellers for 3 dollars (it's in my shopping cart right know). I was just curious to know wich skin tone would match her. I was affraid her tone was a pain to match such as the Rainbow fashionista... but I'm glad to know the lavender top mtm matches her! She is gorgeous * - * These dolls cost something equivalent to 120 dollars (I'm from Brazil). That's too much for a head xD Well I really don't like the eyeshadow... I can reroot her braided hairstyle back, I like it a lot. Oh, and yes, I have several versions of some dolls, but each of them I change their hairstyle. I don't like to have "twins", so I usually reroot them to make them a bit different from each other. For example, I really love Generation Girl Tori, I have 5 of her and everytime I see another one at a good price, I'm tempted to buy it xD
Hiiii which Barbie made to move body did you use???? Please I believe I found the right one (Barbie Olympic Games Tokyo 2020) but she doesn’t have ankle articulation.
yup, sometimes Kira gives me this latina vibe. I'm a latina and once a friend said the 1996 Arctic Barbie (Kira mold) looked like me and I should make her my mini-me (and then a few days later he said that doll was ugly af...I didn't know how to feel about it LMAO).
She became absolutely 100% better when you gave her a MTM body, BTW I want to add hands to a MTM body I bought at a thrift store but not sure hoe to put them on and when you said you changed her hands on your MTM, I was wondering if you could show how you did it. my episode will preview shortly today. thanks again Chookers! th-cam.com/video/cTozzI93EtY/w-d-xo.html
So did anyone notice how very little hair this doll has in the back? My doll has so many bald spots in the back and hardly any braids. I paid $40 for a bald barbie.. Definitely returning her to the store. So disappointed 😞

The whole dress is very Cinderella. Her face is absolute joy. Best friend bear for a best friend! 🥰

This June would look gorgeous in the 2008 silver holiday Barbie dress! And stunning review like always! 💖

Yes! I have to have several versions of some dolls! She’s gorgeous!

some Latinos look Asian too.

I just wish Mattel put effort into using better materials for the dress itself because the design of the dress this year is beautiful.

7:47 barbie always have budget holiday barbie and they’re more casual than the signature ones.
Love, love, love your videos! 🤍 I was just shopping for this doll today
I wish Mattel would give the holiday Barbie the articulated model muse body cause they never use that body anyways I really want the Kira and June ones definitely better than last years holiday Barbie.
Ok, I’m gonna have to go pick her up! :)
The year flew by so fast! :P
Wonderful review! Funny! That was a nice gift and a nice find! :D
“Plastic serotonin” That’s what the Mariah Carey Holiday Barbie Is gonna feel like for me when I finally get her in my hands
She's really beautiful but not available in my country. That's so annoying. 😔 Happy Holidays anyways and thank you for the video.
It's funny, I've seen the Kira doll at 2 Walmarts, but not the other ones. I think she's stunning, I even love the dress. This is the first Holiday doll I've ever wanted, but I'm willing to wait for a sale hehe.
The intro just made my day tbh😂
love her still mad about the rooting but an easy hair match
I just got the last one from target, I’m happy
Omg I feel lucky to have found her at Ross for about $5!! she had no plastic packaging I think someone took her out with the cardboard backing piece still attached with all the little plastic fasteners, she had all her accessories and the clear shoes thank god! And they let me have her for SUPER cheap and this was during Christmas 2022 I feel more lucky to have her now!
We all know July is the month of Holiday am I right 😌
She’s lovely , but they did the bare minimum on the dress, removing the armor helps .
june's mold looks better a thousand times better on black dolls than white dolls
I respectfully disagree. :-) I think the June face sculpt looks great on all different skintones! I have the June pink-haired fashionista and she has a light caramel skintone and I think she looks fabulous.

PS isnt that doll in the back June too? :p
I love that Care 🐻. Just Play released an purple Walmart Exclusive Care 🐻 called 🌈 ❤️. I have that purple Walmart Exclusive Care 🐻.
the black one she name joicey barbie best friend 😊😊💓💓💓💓
Hi I am in love with these if you looking for all 3 kinds of the holiday barbie
why on earth did they put that metal corset on top of the fabric? I think it looks so much better without that metal top
I've seen her bald head being sold by some indonesian sellers for 3 dollars (it's in my shopping cart right know). I was just curious to know wich skin tone would match her. I was affraid her tone was a pain to match such as the Rainbow fashionista... but I'm glad to know the lavender top mtm matches her!

Well I really don't like the eyeshadow... I can reroot her braided hairstyle back, I like it a lot.
Oh, and yes, I have several versions of some dolls, but each of them I change their hairstyle. I don't like to have "twins", so I usually reroot them to make them a bit different from each other.

Merry Christmas!!!
Hiiii which Barbie made to move body did you use???? Please I believe I found the right one (Barbie Olympic Games Tokyo 2020) but she doesn’t have ankle articulation.
Since the christmas june is christmas themed, maybe her name should be July (after christmas in July).
So are holiday barbies not articulated at all? No knee articulation?
Plastic Serotonin !!!!!!
Love your videos
I want her! I have only seen the causcasian version at all my walmarts (which is what usually happens) 😩
Super cute 💖
Omg I didn’t get notified!!
I feel like the third doll is still Latina and not Asian. I could be wrong but she just doesn't look Asian to me at all.
yup, sometimes Kira gives me this latina vibe. I'm a latina and once a friend said the 1996 Arctic Barbie (Kira mold) looked like me and I should make her my mini-me (and then a few days later he said that doll was ugly af...I didn't know how to feel about it LMAO).
I unboxed mine just dissapointed with the way hairs with lots of bald part. very hard for rerrooting.
I thought my laptop screen turned black and white 🤍🖤
Wooo early! :D
She became absolutely 100% better when you gave her a MTM body, BTW I want to add hands to a MTM body I bought at a thrift store but not sure hoe to put them on and when you said you changed her hands on your MTM, I was wondering if you could show how you did it. my episode will preview shortly today. thanks again Chookers!
