Let's Talk Barbie Doll Facial Sculpts

 Thanks to my YouTube Barbie vlogs and doll reviews, I, Gypsie, have earned the reputation of "Face Sculpt Queen".  I will tell you all a secret, I don't know every doll face sculpt by Barbie.   However, I do have a bit of an obsession with learning as many of them as I can.  I think there are way too many sculpts that exist to warrant attempting to learn all of them by heart. But I do feel a sense of satisfaction whenever I recognize a sculpt and can name it. 

To share my knowledge and interest in facial sculpts, I decided to create an archive of sculpts by name, here where other collectors can access the directory at any time.  I have a few doll face sculpt study videos published on YouTube, which you can check out below.  But this list will be a bit more accessible for those who need to look up heads quickly, and need some reference photos. 

I plan to focus on showcasing MODERN sculpts, faces used for dolls that were produced in the last 15-20 years, and vintage head sculpts newly released on modern dolls. I plan to cover both genders of dolls, while the majority of the sculpts featured will be female, due to sheer quantity.  

Please feel free to share suggestions for sculpts you think should be added to the list, name dolls produced that have certain sculpts that may be good references for people and to share photos of dolls whose sculpts are featured here. Thanks for your interest and remember to share these posts with your dolly friends who may be able to benefit from accessing this content! Have a dolly day!
