Image	As seen in	Year	Notes

Barney & the Backyard Gang (intro)	1988-1989	The first Barney doll ever used. He looks more like a true dinosaur than later dolls. This plush has green soles on the bottom of the feet, based off of the soles on the Barney costume (though in a different color). The mouth is a red strip of felt, shaped like a smile.

Barney & the Backyard Gang	1989-1992	This later BYG Barney doll is more of a plush toy than the previous one. In addition to the decreased height, the doll has no toes, is purple, and has a white strip for a mouth. A version of this doll with out the strip was sold in stores and used in Rock with Barney

Barney & Friends Season 1	1992-1993	The Barney doll shown here is more acurate to the costumed Barney. While it still lacks the toes, most of Barney's characteristics are spot on.

Barney and Friends Seasons 2-3

1993-1997	The doll is closer to Barney than even the previous one was. This one includes the purple guy's famous yellow toes, while the face is given a bit of a lift. The arms are even posable.

1997-2000	This doll is slightly chubbier, has a rounder head, and his eyes are a bit farther from his forehead.

Barney & Friends Seasons 5-6, "Barney's Christmas Star", and "All Aboard!" 1998-2002	This doll is similar to the Season 4 doll, but is less chubby and has a wider smile.

Barney's Great Adventure, Barney's Big Surprise, Barney's Colorful World	1998-2004	These productions used Barney dolls that could be bought in stores (Big Surprise using a 3 foot Barney plush toy, while Colorful World, Great Adventure and even Musical Castle used a 12 inch plush toy), rather than the custom made ones used on the TV series
