#Blaine Gordon

[barbielore]

The Generation Girl Barbie series is one that I don't know a lot about, as it hit right when I was in my "too old to play with Barbies" era but before my interest in Barbies as collectibles with lore. My main knowledge about Generation Girl is that it was the line in which my favourite character in the Barbie line-up debuted... Blaine Gordon.

But I don't actually know that much about the rest of the line. I know that Blaine came from there, and the story of Blaine after that point, but not really much about the rest of the Generation Girl line.

(My dream for 2024: bring back Blaine!)

From what I've heard, Generation Girl was kind of like a prelude to MyScene - not so much in doll design, but in intent. The goal of the line appears to have been to diversify and add some edge to the Barbie brand to appeal to the new generation of 90s kids.

The first generation of Generation Girl dolls featured six characters: Barbie, Tori, Ana, Chelsie, Lara and Nichelle. The storyline was that they were students at an international boarding school in New York. This allowed the line to showcase characters who could showcase different 90s subcultures as well as being from different cultural backgrounds, with characters being from the US, Australia, Mexico, England and France.

(Interesting to note here is that when Blaine first got introduced to the line he was identified as being from New York, while Tori was from Australia; later Blaine releases make him Australian too.)

These dolls also had a slightly edgier style with some versions of Barbie having a heart tattoo, and some versions of Chelsie having a nose ring.

The second edition of Generation Girl dolls, Dance Party, did not release a new Ana doll, but did introduce Mari, from Japan, and my buddy Blaine.

Dance Party was followed by My Room, which was themed around each character's bedrooms and how they reflected their personal style. For My Room, Ana was back, but Chelsie had transferred to another school, so was not.

Allegedly, the line wrapped in 2001 because Mattel felt that having a doll line set in New York after certain events that transpired in September would not land well - I don't know if this was the exact reason, but I assume they were concerned that if the line were to continue, it would be conspicuous if they did not address it, but potentially in poor taste if they did.

Regardless of why, Generation Girl faded away after this and most characters from it did not have continued appearances. Blaine himself did, however, and went on to win the hearts of millions*.

*Millions in this case means me. Just me.

hey hey hey I saw your post!!! any good fic recs for white collar? :) anything is appreciated, I'm not picky!!!

thank you!!

Sure thing, White Collar fic recs coming right up! I have more in the folder if you want more/different, but here’s a mixed selection. I also have more similar fics but the list is already quite long enough, and some of these have sequels.

Always A Surprise: Neal/Sara, 1.7k, explicit, dom/sub, femdom. Neal is good little sub for Sara, but also wants Peter to fuck him—she knows and encourages his fantasies.

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year: Peter & Neal, Peter/Elizabeth, Elizabeth & Mozzie, 3.8k, general, post-canon, reunions. Neal gets back from Paris and meets baby Neal at Christmas, also feat Diana and Theo.

Perspective: Peter/Neal/El, can be read as friendship, 5.2k, mature, kidnapping, hurt/comfort. Neal gets kidnapped and develops ptsd related to restraints ie his anklet, but Peter and El are doing everything they can to make him feel safe again.

Once Upon Another Time: Neal/Sara, Neal & Mozzie, 25k, mature, mpreg (not mpreg from Sara). Neal is a government breeder with no choice in the matter, and Sara is looking for her art thief at the same as the FBI—Sara finds Neal before Peter does.

The Last Con: Neal/Sara, 33k, teen and up, post-canon. Neal gets to live his life after canon, moving to London to be with Sara and work as an insurance investigator, but then he doesn’t anymore.

L’art pour l’art: Neal/Gordon Taylor, 834 words, general, fluff. The soulmates being fluffy in Paris.

Blown Up: Neal/David Siegel, 5k, explicit, character death, grief, suicidal thoughts. Very angsty sad fic with briefly happy Neal because Neal never gets to be happy.

The Island: Neal/David, 5k, explicit, character death, emotional hurt/comfort. Neal gets to fall in love, but it’s in secret, and he can’t be okay when he has to pretend it never happened.

Built on sand: Neal & Diana, 4.3k, teen and up, undercover as a couple, MLM WLW solidarity. Neal saves Diana from having to flirt with a guy on a mission, and Diana doesn’t realise how okay with it Neal is.

The Way You Make Me Feel: Neal/OMC, 6.3k, teen and up, bisexual Neal. Neal was in a nude painting for an ex boyfriend, then said painting ends up in FBI’s white collar division.

This Isn’t Where I’d Choose to Be (But Maybe it’s Where I Should Be): Neal/Peter, Neal/Matthew Keller, 666 words, general, AU canon divergence, not canon compliant. Peter, Neal and Keller get stuck in an elevator, prompting discussion and reenactment of the last time Neal and Keller were stuck in an elevator.

Our Secret to Keep: Neal/Peter, 2.6k, mature, semi-public sex, exhibitionism. Neal is underneath Peter’s desk with a gift, the gift is himself.

Audio Drama: Neal/OMC, Neal/Peter, Peter/Elizabeth (mentioned), 2k, mature, exhibitionism, professional ethics re consent. Diana, Peter and Jones have to sit in the van listening to Neal get a blowjob and then Peter confronts him about it and it ends about as you’d expect.

Fox Among Hounds: Neal/Peter, 11k, teen and up, pre-relationship, escorts, protective Peter. Neal pretends to be an escort for an undercover mission, and when it starts to go pear shaped I guess Peter was the only possible person to get him out of it.

A Gentleman’s Guide to Suits, Ties and (White) Collars: Neal/Peter, Mike Ross/Harvey Spector, Donna Paulson/Clinton Jones, 29k, teen and up, matchmaking, first kiss. Mike is on a mission to make Peter and Neal realise that they love each other via the most crazy crossover dinner party.

The New Boss: gen, crossover with Chuck, 14k, general, Neal Caffrey and Bryce Larkin are the same person. Hughes still gets pushed out as ASAC but maybe the CIA replacement isn’t who they were expecting.

Never Recognised A Purer Face: Blaine Anderson/Sebastian Smythe, Cooper Anderson & Blaine Anderson, 3.3k, teen and up, Cooper Anderson and Neal Caffrey are the same person, Seblaine high school sweethearts. Cooper Anderson faked his death, but now he has to protect his little brother from said brother’s criminal boyfriend.

SS Arthur M Anderson: "Fitzgerald, this is the Anderson. Have you checked down?"

SS Edmund Fitzgerald: "Yes we have."

Anderson: "Fitzgerald, we are about 10 miles behind you, and gaining about 1 1/2 miles per hour. Fitzgerald, there is a target 19 miles ahead of us. So the target would be 9 miles on ahead of you."

Fitzgerald: "Well, am I going to clear?"

A: "Yes. He is going to pass to the west of you."

F: "Well, fine."

A: "By the way, Fitzgerald, how are you making out with your problem?"

F: "We are holding our own."

A: "Okay, fine. I'll be talking to you later."

The crew of the Edmund Fitzgerald would never speak to anyone outside of the ship again. After the Fitzgerald entered a squall and was obscured from the Anderson's radar. Some time shortly thereafter the Edmund Fitzgerald sank with all hands aboard.

What is your favorite of the 2000s?! :0

The 2000s are an era where my interest in Barbie was less personal as I was too old to play with dolls, and more interested in the lore and controversies around Barbie. Sure, there's collectors dolls I like from this era, but there's really only two real answers.

Midge & Baby (2002) from the Happy Family line was the first time I remember being aware of Barbie controversies in real time. My mother bought a Midge as soon as she could and had it on display since she knew the controversy was underway.

People were scandalized by a Barbie being pregnant, and by her not wearing a wedding ring. (Calm the heck down people, her fingers probably swelled up!)

The other is 2004 Cali Guy Blaine.

It swept the world when Mattel announced that Barbie and Ken were breaking up and, of all people to win the fan poll for the new target of her affection, it was Aussie surfer Blaine.

This particularly stood out to me as an Australian since there was so much news coverage of Barbie choosing a hometown boy.

Barbie and Ken got back together shortly thereafter but I miss Blaine. #justiceforblaine #bringbackblaine

OC ask: Kira Nguyen (Barbie's Asian friend from the 90s), and Summer Gordon

Kira

FULL NAMES: Kira Ngyen.

NICKNAME(S): None.

FACECLAIM: N/A.

BIRTH: June 21, 1992. (Not that she was released on that date, but since Sun Sensation Kira was apparently her debut, I've made the Summer Solstice her birthday.)

DEATH: N/A.

ZODIAC SIGN: Cancer.

SEXUALITY: Unknown.

GENDER: Female.

ORIGIN: Mattel Inc.

NATIONALITY: US American (2nd generation Vietnamese-American).

FAMILY: Unknown

CHARACTERISTICS:

+ Cheerful, friendly, fun-loving, passionate, romantic, empathetic.

– Sometimes moody.

(These are the traits I gave my childhood Kira doll.)

WEAPON OF CHOICE: Her beauty.

OTHER PERSONAL INFO: It's too bad that Kira dolls were discontinued, and that her personality never got much development, because she was a welcome addition to the Barbie lineup in the '90s. Her striking face, beautiful black hair, and array of summer- and tropical-themed outfits made her a memorable presence, as well as good representation for Asian girls.

Summer

FULL NAMES: Summer Gordon.

NICKNAME(S): None.

WEAPON OF CHOICE: Her beauty and her athletic skills.

OTHER PERSONAL INFO: I never heard of Summer until now, since I had outgrown playing with Barbies by the time she was introduced. But I like the look of her very much. Her titian hair, hazel eyes, and aquiline nose give her a distinctly different vibe than Barbie, less "bubble gum cutie pie" and more sophisticated, which is refreshing. And while I haven't watched Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse, what I've read about her portrayal there, with her high energy, sportiness, and competitiveness, combined with the fact that she's Australian, makes her sound likable and different from the Barbie stereotype. If she had been around when I was little, I'm sure would have loved her.
