it's like jon benet ramsey. the photos they picked out to put on the tabloid covers always gave me the creeps. like, ewww, that amount of blush isn't good for ANYONE, let alone anyone whose head is only half again the size of my fist.
They sold really well though. The Dealer's Bonus was a fifth one that you couldn't buy anywhere (although rather than giving them away to good customers, a lot of dealers chose to sell them on eBay).
The creepiest ones to me are Tommy as Elvis though.
I think Margaret Hamilton Kelly ought to glow in the dark like the way Lily Munster Barbie did (or was it Herman Ken...I'm confused now). I'm really annoyed that they didn't make a Flying Monkey Kelly too.
I was actually hoping for Flying Monkey Kelly or Skipper when they did the original Barbie as Wizard of Oz characters 10 years ago since it would've been in better scale but noooooooooo...
However, now Mattel seems to want to copy Madame Alexander's lead by doing Kelly versions of everything so who knows. Maybe next year.
Oh, ew. You've put me in mind of those creepy MA Sherlock Holmes, Ricky Ricardo, etc. I hate being in a room with those little fuckers. They want to kill all humans.
