The Generic, Non-Specific Stevie Nicks Podcast

This week Randy and Anthony unbox the Bella Donna Barbie, armed with scissors, an X-Acto knife, and way too many opinions about doll hair.What starts as a simple unboxing quickly becomes an obsessive deep dive into era accuracy, album cover details we never noticed (hello, hidden bracelet and ring!), and whether Stevie's dress should've been lavender instead of white. We battle industrial-strength plastic packaging, wrestle with plastic, printed cockatiel, discover embossed floral patterns, debate the lack of era-appropriate tambourines, and have strong feelings about those bangs.Join us as we take this Barbie way too seriously, because our girl Stevie deserves nothing less. Plus, we dream about future Stevie Barbies (Midnight Special hair, anyone?) and share our plans for elaborate dioramas.Final rating: 8/10. Would unbox again.Topics discussed:Bella Donna Barbie unboxing chaosAlbum cover accuracy and hidden detailsThe hair volume situationEra-specific accessory debatesRumors Barbie vs. Bella Donna BarbieDream Stevie Barbies we need Mattel to makeDIY customization plansAnd so much moreGot a Stevie Barbie?
