Barbie 1959-present
In 1963, the outfit "Barbie Baby-Sits" came with a book entitled How to Lose Weight which advised: "Don't eat. The same book was included in another ensemble called "Slumber Party" in 1965 along with a pink bathroom scale reading 110lbs., which would be around 35lbs. underweight for a woman 5 feet 9inches tall. In July 1992, Mattel released Teen Talk Barbie, which spoke a number of phrases including "Will we ever have enough clothes?", "I love shopping!", and "Wanna have a pizza party?" Each doll was programmed to say four out of 270 possible phrases, so that no two dolls were likely to be the same. One of these 270 phrases was "Math class is tough!" (often misquoted as "Math is hard").

A standard Barbie doll is 11.5inches tall, giving a height of 5 feet 9inches at 1/6 scale. Barbie's vital statistics have been estimated at 36inches 4/21/12 (chest), 18inches (waist)
