| Barbie BMR1959 dolls have been deboxed. |
I did not have time to photograph the Barbie BMR1959 dolls I purchased when they arrived to include the photos with my
video post. This is a more detailed description of each doll with some comparisons made.

| She poses alongside her shoebox-style box that contains her illustration. |
 |
| A close-up of her lovely face illustrates her brown eyes, honey blonde braids, dark red lip color, and the beauty mark above her lip on her left. |
 |
| The Made-to-Move body has interesting jointing. |
 |
| She strikes an additional pose in front of her box. |
I recorded the following description for this doll in my doll inventory Excel workbook.
Tan complexioned girl with honey blonde braids and top-knot
of braids has painted-on baby hair, brown painted eyes, dark red lip color, and
green fingernails; wears a yellow BMR1959 logo long-sleeve crop top with mesh
sleeves, one-piece biker shorts with a racetrack checkered pattern on the sides and the back, royal blue plastic fanny pack, and pink low-top
sneakers. Jewelry: Silver drop earrings,
two silver rings on the right hand, BMR1959 logo ring on the left hand. Has a beauty mark above the lip on her left.

| This lovely doll was photographed while still attached to her purple box liner. She has brown painted eyes, eggplant lip color, and painted-on baby hair. |
 |
This full-view photo was taken prior to removing her from the box.
 |
| Free to move, she poses in front of her box. |
 |
| She is happy to be free! |
|
 |
| Lovely! |
 |
| Striking a pose |
 |
| The vinyl on the back of these dolls' legs is uneven caused by the molding process. This doll's vinyl is also discolored in this area. |
 |
| Here she poses from the back wearing the hood of her dress with her jacket removed. |
Her description reads as follows:
Doll uses the Curvy Barbie made-to-move body, has black hair styled in a ponytail with painted-on baby hair, brown painted eyes, dark lip color, and off-white nail polish; wears nylon floral-print dress, clear plastic jacket with Barbie BMR1959 logo in white stamped throughout, gold booties, silver earrings with BMR 1959 logo, and yellow sunglasses attached to her head.

| Like the girls, the guy poses in front of his illustrated box. |
 |
| He's very photogenic. |
 |
| He shows the BMR1959 logo that is on the pocket of his overalls. |
 |
| All three have knees that look similar to his. |
 |
| He and the doll with braids have the same uneven vinyl on the back of their legs that the darker-skinned doll has; hers is more apparent. |
 |
| He, too, poses without his jacket. |
His description reads as follows:
Dark tan complexioned male with made-to-move body has bright
green flocked hair, brown painted eyes with mauve eyeshadow, and mauve lip
color; wears a purple sleeveless shirt, bright green overalls with BMR1959 on
bib pocket, huge white plastic chain necklace, royal blue bubble-style jacket,
and orange high-top boots with platform soles. His fingernails are painted dark
pink.
 |
| Each doll's certificate of authenticity is attached to the back of the box liner. |
All three dolls have a black BMR1959 logo doll stand (not shown) and
certificate of authenticity, which is shown above. The clothing worn by all three is 1990s inspired.
The Trio
 |
| With jacket, coat, and blouse on, respectively, they were photographed; and again... |
 |
| ...not wearing their jacket, coat, and blouse, respectively. |
Complexion Comparisons
Because colors will differ from device to device, I decided to add the following complexion comparison photos for each doll to provide a better idea of their true skin tones.
 |
| Biker Girl's complexion is compared with Barbie Fashionista #123, whose complexion is slightly darker than Biker Girl's. |
 |
| Guy '59's complexion is compared to Barbie Basics Model #17, who is just a shade darker than Guy '59. |
 |
| Lovely's complexion is compared with Fashionista #5. Their heads are about the same complexion with #5's body a shade lighter, maybe than Lovely's body. By the way, Lovely's head and body are the same color. |
I haven't actually named the BMR1959 dolls. The names used with the comparison photos were randomly selected as I typed the captions.

There are countless items to collect and write about. Black dolls chose me.
