That is what Barbie has to say about her and Ken’s love, the pair’s 2004 “break-up” made more headlines than a lot of real life couples. Earlier this year Ken went on a massive campaign to win Barbie back, billboards popped up in major cities stating his case.

Review: Barbie as Cleopatra
Barbie as Cleopatra is part Mattel’s current line of Fantasy Dolls, she is my first purchase from this line, and is my favorite doll so far. Unlike Medusa and Athena her arms do not move, which is actually a plus. I have had such a hard time getting Medusa & Athena to stand just right, [...]
Barbie as Cleopatra

Barbie As Athena

Then the resent DC Barbies were announced (Black Canary, Batgirl, Supergirl, Wonder Woman), and I discovered the Barbie Fantasy line (I have Medusa and Aphrodite) before I knew it I had a little collection going. That collection is going to grow in [...]
