Barbie

Character from Toy Story by Pixar / Disney

A Sunnyside Daycare Barbie doll who fell for Ken's dream closet, discovered his complicity in a dictatorship, and chose justice over the relationship — then took him back after he reformed.

Barbie arrives at Sunnyside as a donated toy and meets Ken with the instant, magnetic attraction of two toys who were literally designed for each other. Their romance is played for laughs — montages of outfit changes, sunset walks down the Sunnyside hallway — but Barbie is sharper than the stereotype suggests. When she discovers that Ken is part of Lotso's regime, she doesn't make excuses for him. She confronts him, uses his vanity against him (threatening to tear his clothes), and extracts the information needed to free the group. She turns romantic leverage into tactical advantage without losing her sincerity. She's a toy who loves fashion and also believes in democracy.

Appearance

A blonde fashion doll in a sparkly pink outfit — the quintessential Barbie aesthetic with perfectly styled hair, an impossibly small waist, and an extensive wardrobe. She carries herself with the confidence of someone who has never once questioned her own attractiveness. Her outfits change constantly.
