The Evolution of Barbie's Face, 1959-2015

For the most part, Barbie has kept her 39-18-33 measurements over the years. But her face has changed quite a bit. She may have had plastic surgery. That becomes a bit more clear when you look at the development of her face during her 56 years.

And you can see precisely that, thanks to the hard work of Tumblr blogger Forbidden Transmissions. She has lined up headshots of Barbie from every year during her long life. She comments:

Personally, I think the molds they used from 1987-1995 are the cutest, but I was still a little girl playing with Barbies at that time, so I may be a bit biased.

You can view them all here.

These guys never, ever knew what they were talking about. They're atomic scientists making predictions about fields in which they are not experts - geopolitics and war. Their opinion carries no more weight than yours or mine. It would be like having an expert on insects write books on human overpopulation or an expert on linguistics lecture on economics. He or she may have a point, true, (I'm not saying that people can't work outside their fields) but greatness in one field does not necessarily equal greatness in all fields.
