I'd simply be remiss if I didn't let you all know about this lovely 2010 Harley-Davidson Barbie and Ken gift set. It's a Pink Label gift set, retails for $74.95, and features two rather nice-looking dolls.
Now, why do Ken's wrists bend, and it looks like Barbie is yet another Model Muse Barbie? Am I the only collector who likes articulated dolls?
Anyway--the dolls are dressed in actual fashions that are available at the Harley store for real humans, and these two come with tattoos, piercings and helmets.
Love the cut of Barbie's jacket. Heck, I would wear that.
Available for pre-order now, shipping in February 2010. (I heard about it from Vogue Collectibles in Canada--they are just great to deal with.)
I love the Ken.
ReplyDeleteThe Barbie would be okay, but if she isn't articulated the way previous dolls (well, my HD AA Barbie is), that doesn't make sense. She's not supposed to primp around the motorcycle like one of those game show hostesses. She's supposed to ride the thing. Sigh.
I saw them first on My Favorite Doll, www.mfd.net, another great-to-deal-with Canadian company ;-)
I'm glad I'm not the only collector wishing for more articulated Barbies.
ReplyDeleteI ADORE MFD, also. (Just hadn't gotten their update yet.) They are also fantastic!
