Dream Glow Barbie and 80s/ 70s Barbie IDs?
« on: February 11, 2013, 07:17:31 PM »
Can anyone post close up pictures of her original hairstyle and head? I can't figure out if the Barbie I have wearing the dress is really her or not- and I'd like to get the hairstyle correct.

Thanks!

Thank you!  Now is her hair the fluffy, cornsilk type or the easier to brush out more pony type? Maybe I should just post a picture of my Barbie to see if she's correct. It looks like mine may have bluer eyes though.

The lighting in the room is horrible, Her eyes are periwinkle/lavendery blue. Her hair is soft like a pony, but I kinda think pony hair and corn silk (think corn silk cabbage patch) are the same type.

Here are my 3 choices, and I'm not sure if any are her- I think the one on the left looks closest makeup wise, but her hair is really... fluffy- not shiny looking.

The ones to the right may be older? They look different.

I am no Barbie expert, but the one on the left looks like her hair is made of the later type hair, where it's prone to fly aways and static. The one on the right looks closer to the head/face mold of DG Barbie, but her eyes are very blue, so she may be Day to Night Barbie. Her hair also looks like the same type as my DG. The one in the middle I am not sure of. Maybe some one here on the board can help id them better. I wish you luck.

Do the two dolls on the right have country markings on their bodies?  Dream Glow Barbie should be marked Taiwan.  I think the one in the middle is Peaches and Cream Barbie, and she should be marked Philippines.

The 2 on the right are Phillipines- and the one all the way on the right has straight arms and no earring holes. Could she be a very well done fakie? The one in the dress says Malaysia.

I do have Peaches N Cream Barbie MIB and out, but the eyes are different. Peaches N Cream has 2 white dots in her eyes and they're blue in the pupil. That middle Barbie has purple pupils.

Who knew that Barbies would be so hard to ID?

If the one on the right has straight arms and is marked Philippines, then she is most likely Great Shape Barbie.  I'm still trying to figure out who the one in the middle is.  I have a book that lists what each body should be marked, so I'll get back to you when I have a better answer.  :)

*Edit* Crystal Barbie is marked Philippines and has lavender eyes.  Could she be the middle one?
