A Barbie superfan, who became obsessed with the toy as a child, has filled her home with 17,000 dolls. Bettina Dorfman started the collection, which is said to be worth more than 200k, when she was just 10-years-old and was given a Barbie as a present during a stay in hospital. Since then, the blonde housewife from Dusseldorf, Germany has amassed a whopping 17,000 Barbies and holds the Guinness World Record for the largest collection in the world.
