This Vintage Barbie Twist ‘n Turn (TNT) marked 1966 Made in Japan is in excellent condition. This is the first Barbie that started the Mod era and received a total makeover from previous vintage models. Often referred to as “TNT” Barbies because of their twistable heads, these dolls had rooted eyelashes, bendable legs, waists that turned in various directions, and changeable clothes. All the vintage Barbies were made in Japan, and have "Japan" marked on the bottom of one foot, or in the case of the bend-leg dolls, on the right buttock. This doll fits the Side-Part American Girl! (1966-7) If you have the Japanese Side-Part, her vinyl will be more pinky. The designers at Mattel came up with a new look for the ponytail Barbie in 1964. No more short curly bangs - instead the bangs are long and swept across the forehead, along the right side of her head and join into the ponytail at the back. Collectors call this new style the "swirl ponytail". Hair color was available in as many different colors. All parts of the doll work well. She is approximately 11 ¾” tall.
