Those are so cool!

Why, when I was your age I got Nurse Barbie, Astronaut Barbie, and Underpaid, Sexually Discriminated Secretary Barbie.

You whippersnappers have all the fun.

Holy shiznit.

That is scary....

I never liked the idea of toys made after movies...if I were an actress the whole idea of my image being molded in plastic for kids to play with and disgruntled fans to voodoo-ize, disturbs me beyond comprehension.

Barbie and Ken make it so much worse.

So Fanboy Ken and Fangirl Barbie attending a LOTR convention are a bad thing? If I can dress up as a Nazgul, why can't Barbie dress up as Arwen? [Taunt]

Oh, good lord. [Eek!]

That is just wrong. [Grumble]

Oh please.

This kind of thing is inevitable.

Cool!--I mean, how idiotic.

Bleah. Ken is SO not as hot as Viggo. (smites him)

Oh, please. If anything is making Tolkien roll over in his grave, it's the movies.

They got it wrong. That does not look like the Tree of Gondor on Aragorn's vest.

I want a Nazgul figure.

Can I behead them? I like beheading Ken and Barbie. I think it's real fun! Wanna play? [ROFL]

It's not the coolest Aragorn and Arwen figures, but it's certainly the coolest Barbie and Ken I've seen in a while.

Your kids could play with worse.

Are you doing that because you don't have the $29.99? [Razz]
 
Posted by John Van Pelt (Member # 5767) on :
 
Barbie: Ow. Don't sharpen my ears... OW!
Ken: Wasn't my sword MUCH MUCH longer than this? [Evil Laugh]
 
Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :
 
Neat! It's an Olivia doll. [Smile]

Ahem.
*relieved for Papa Moose
[Wink]
 
Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :
 
CT, are you comparing Olivia to the Arwen doll or the one I linked to?
 
Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :
 
Ah, zgator, that would depend on whether she's going out with her husband tonight. I hear tell that they've shocked a babysitter or two with the risque outfit.

What a marriage. [Wink]
 
Posted by Eruve Nandiriel (Member # 5677) on :
 
Oh good grief! [Wall Bash]
That's terrible!
(I do like the dress, though. [Smile] )

BTW, Viggo didn't like the idea of thousands of toys of him being made. He rants about it in the EE.

*small voice*

Those are kind of cool...
 
Posted by BannaOj (Member # 3206) on :
 
That's what I thought too kat. Actually what I'd really like to see is the remake of it using those figures as the base for that crazy guy that custom makes celeb barbie dolls.

Not having the white tree on the vest is a big boo boo though.

AJ

Needs to go watch the EE of TT with the cast commentary to hear viggos rant and the humor from the others!

Barbie looks good.

Seeing that vacant Ken-doll look on Aragorn's face is painful.

You think you’re funny.

But you’re not.

If Barbie and Ken are dressing up like Arwen and Aragorn, does that make them Nerd Barbie and Nerd Ken dolls?
