However, Mattel would not allow the use of Barbie because they didn't want her to be given her personality (it was important to them that the girls who buy the toys would imagine what Barbie is like themselves, thus making the toy unique to each girl). Also, they didn't want to partake in a film with a troubled production. It was common knowledge that Disney had been unhappy with the original scripts of Toy Story for some time and Mattel was concerned about the effect it would have on sales. After Toy Story was a success, Mattel decided to put that policy aside and allowed her to appear in Toy Story 2, and also with her boyfriend Ken in Toy Story 3.

All the Barbie dolls who appear in the series are voiced by Jodi Benson, famous for voicing Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid movie trilogy and TV series. She also voiced Barbie in many commercials for the doll, and on CD-ROM games with the character, as well as the stop-motion puppet of the doll in the Dance! Workout with Barbie workout video released straight-to-VHS in 1992. Coincidentally, the live-action reimagining of The Little Mermaid and the live-action Barbie film by Warner Bros. Pictures were both released theatrically in 2023. Benson has voiced both Ariel and Barbie, and coincidentally both live-action films also feature mermaids. She later makes amends and reconciles with Ken, and the two re-establish their relationship, becoming boyfriend and girlfriend once again. Together, they revolutionize Sunnyside, turning the daycare into a true toy paradise for toys of all kind, and become its new leaders. Under Ken and Barbie's leadership, the daycare toys now rotate their time between the Butterfly Room and the Caterpillar Room, hold beach parties at the sandbox, and gather together in the Butterfly Room for disco parties. The next day, the toys, now residing at their new home at Bonnie's house, receive a message from Sunnyside and read it, thinking it is written by Barbie (as remarked by Buzz about the fancy handwriting), only to discover Ken's signature at the end, much to their dread.Barbie was meant to appear in the first Toy Story film as Woody's girlfriend, in place of Bo Peep.

In addition, her personality in that film was intended to be modeled after Sarah Connor from the Terminator franchise, even saying, "Come with me if you want to live," when she rescued Woody and Buzz from Sid's mansion, with Woody remarking in reply that he "Wish[ed] [Woody] was anatomically correct."As mentioned in my previous post, Mr. Potato Head was invented by George Lerner, who wanted to make vegetables more appealing to children by giving them a way to play with them. By 1964, the plastic potato and it’s accessory body parts were being sold across America. It had the same affect on television as Barbie did, as it was the very first TV commercial to be targeted directly to children. Mrs. Potato Head was introduced in 1953, just a year after Mr. Potato Head was officially released. Her conception came after Lerner had sold the rights to the toy to Hasbro.

As Lotso assigns Andy's toys to the Caterpillar Room, Ken asks Barbie if she wants to live in his Dream House in the Butterfly Room, and when the toys approve, Barbie willingly goes with Ken as she departs the Caterpillar Room.

About Toy Story

Toy Story (1995) is a classic animated movie that follows the adventures of a group of toys owned by a boy named Andy. The main character is Woody, a cowboy doll who is Andy's favourite toy. When Andy receives a new space toy named Buzz Lightyear, Woody feels threatened and jealous, leading to a series of mishaps that result in Buzz getting lost. Woody and the other toys must work together to rescue Buzz and return him to Andy before he moves away. Along the way, they encounter obstacles and make new friends, learning important lessons about loyalty, friendship, and the true meaning of being a toy. The movie has become a beloved classic and spawned several sequels, all of which continue to capture the hearts of audiences of all ages. One of Molly's Barbie dolls has lasted up until this point, but Molly tosses her into a box bound for Sunnyside Daycare. Soon, Andy's toys sneak into the box, joining Barbie to go to Sunnyside as well, now that Andy is going to college. Mrs. Potato Head tries to comfort Barbie, who is crying about being abandoned and thrown out by Molly. When Woody describes daycare as a sad, lonely place for toys who have no owners, she begins to bawl and sob hysterically.

Nevertheless, Barbie and the toys escape Sunnyside through the garbage chute, but Lotso and his gang corner them. Barbie, supporting Jessie's claims about Sunnyside not being a place for a family but a prison and Lotso being a liar and a bully, stands up and tells Lotso off with her surprising understanding of civics: "Authority should derive from the consent of the governed, not from the threat of force!" Lotso then signals Stretch to push the toys, including Barbie, into the dumpster.
