Description :

Anatomically improbable Barbie has had a number of motorhomes since her debut in 1959. She had a minivan and a number of motorhomes and campers, including the Starlight Motorhome Golden Dream Motorhome and Disco Motorhome, Barbie’s Magical Motorhome, and a Star Traveler motorhome in a GMC configuration . Barbie is allowed to travel with her gal pals but can only go on day trips with Ken. Despite Barbie’s many wedding gowns and accessories and Ken’s wedding tuxedo outfit, the polymer pair have never been officially married, according to toymaker Mattel. Always trendy and sometimes trendsetting, Barbie’s clothing, accessories, companions, and even her motorhomes have changed with the times. The first motorhomes and campers, acquired by the blonde icon in the early 1970s, were reminiscent of the boxy Winnebagos manufactured at the same time. The camper motorhome pictured was manufactured in 1971 while the zoomy streamlined model dates from 1996.
