Okay I'm now home from watching the Barbie movie, so I have to bestow some knowledge upon you fuckers (aka me infodumping actual Barbie lore because there were a lot of references there).
So, first and foremost, in one scene, we see "Earring Ken" and "Growing up Skipper" (very short scene, don't worry if you missed it). But these were actual Barbie dolls released by Mattel way back whenever (See pictures below)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, "Earring Ken" was actually "Earring Magic Ken". His whole thing was Mattel wanted to be cool and hip with the kids or whatever, so they created him. Except their idea of going out and finding inspiration and information as to what was "hip with the kids", was gay bars. And raves. As you can imagine, Earring Magic Ken did not stay on shelves too long (about 6 months) (though he did sell actually really well and I believe is still one of their most sold despite only being available for such a short time). I'm pretty sure his necklace charm could be swapped out too and also worn as actual earrings. HOWEVER, the part about Earring Magic Ken that kills me, is that because they went to gay bars, not only did they give him a mesh shirt and shit (as seen above), but the charm on his necklace? Is a cock ring. Did Mattel realize this? Probably the fuck not, but that's what it was💕
Growing up Skipper was also an actual doll, and just like in the movie, if you twisted her arm, she grew boobs. She also grew like an inch taller or something. I'm pretty sure she also was not on the shelf long, but she was introduced in the 1970s. So that's fun
Next up, Midge and Allan (who both play slightly bigger roles in the film but here's pictures anyways)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So Midge was Barbie's best friend, and was released specifically because Mattel found themselves faced with high demand for a pregnant Barbie doll. But of course, Barbie can never get married or be pregnant or have kids, because it ages her, and obviously seeming a little older means Barbie is suddenly worthless and unappealing (Woo patriarchy!). So their solution was Midge, who, ironically, ended up being everything Barbie couldn't (which is kind of funny since she's supposed to be able to be any and everything ever). So, them making her only personality trait in the movie her pregnancy, is kind of spot on. She did have actual dolls initially but then seemed to disappear for a while, having been replaced with other "Barbie's best friend!"'s. Actually they also replaced Barbie's siblings several times but that's another post. Midge did eventually return though in Life in the Dreamhouse (See below)
Tumblr media
One thing they never mentioned in the movie, however, is that Allan was actually Midge's boyfriend. I don't have too much on him besides that but I think it's worth mentioning.
Anywho, there's my rant on some of the characters in the Barbie movie, if you made it this far, thanks :))

I was Ken and I had to cook Barbie a meal so she’d like me. Also, that closet robot from Life in the Dreamhouse was her boyfriend and I was trying to kill him.

KENGENDER! . . . a gender related to ken from the barbie franchise! this gender is related to ALL forms of ken. this gender is blue, it’s funny, it’s a bit of a himbo and can be masculine but isn’t inherently masculine. it may also feel plasticky like a ken doll! this gender may also relate to being kin with ken. . . . the stripes do not have any specific meaning, they are just his colors.
[PT: kengender! END PT]
[IMAGE ID: four flags and then a divider.
the flags all have seven equally-sized horizontal stripes. from top to bottom, the colors are white, pastel blue, blue, white, blue, pastel blue, and white. the first flag has ‘ken’ in typical barbie font on it, the second is just the stripes, the third has a symbol of the life in the dream house version of ken in the middle, and the fourth has a picture of the ryan gosling movie version of ken in the middle. the divider is a thin solid black line. END ID]
O1 ; tagging @accessmogai for image ID. O2 ; requested by no one, coined by the hero! if anyone has already coined this, kindly let him know!

Ok this is such a random reference but uno in the old ‘barbie, life in the dream house’ series when Ken had his ‘barbie tingle’ that told him whenever she was in trouble, I love to think that Crowley has one of these for Aziraphale and that whenever he isn’t with him, he’s sorta just waiting too see Aziraphale or save him again, like he just powers down and sits there waiting.
Anyway I saw the photo above and this Drabble of a head cannon just appeared, I think this is probably what Crowley looks like when is is waiting to see Aziraphale.
The full photo for anyone curious:

can we just acknowledge how funny it is that the person playing Ken in Barbie (2023) is named Ryan??

This finally our time to turn the Barbie Movie into the MCU and every other bit of nerd content that people try to put a high entry gate on. I say we all band together and make men watch every single Barbie animated movie before seeing the live action. What do you mean you never watch Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses? You don’t know who Bibble is??? What about the lore? You don’t know what the song in Princess and the Pauper is? What’s your favorite Life in the Dreamhouse episode? Fake fans…
