Barbie looks hot but Ken's carrying a purse! With a rhinstone phallus on it no less! He's dead, Jim.

Quote

Ken's new garb includes a motorcycle jacket and cargo pants.

Do people really wear the two of those together?

But that's not all: he now dabbles in Buddhism...

Wha--? Their sales are slipping so they made him fucking Richard Gere?

and has learned to cook. Apparently, he still doesn't have a last name.

Funny, I can think of several. And here I thought he couldn't get any weirder than his plastic hair in the eighties.

Ha, Merla thinks Barbie should hook up with G.I.Joe, too.

Now if I had designed Ken instead of some eccentric queer, I would've made him look like this. Hawt. Then Barbie would be eating her street corner because he would hence become far more classy than her and hence, unattainable.

Yeah but GI Joe is only 8 inches tall now and looks like this:

The 12 inch line was cancelled last year....

I can't believe Bratz are so popular. Those things are hideously ugly.

Barbie looks disproportionate compared to Ken's more realistic proportions. She looks rather Asian and cartoony in that pic.

Also, here's a real man:

Now there's a haircut you can set your watch to!

OMG, yes. I don't know what's in little girls' heads these days, but of course, I never really did. I thought classic Barbie was a beauty. Giant eyeballs and fishlips aren't doing it.

He's a little too "homicidal raping drifter" to me. Duke looks like a freak to me, too, but at least he looks like he'd put away the knife and move the sofa for you if you asked him to.

Get a load of that first pic! It's George Michael!

If there's one accessory Ken never needed, it was an ascot.

A big problem I see with Ken looking at more pictures of him, his clothes don't fit! They aren't tailored enough so he either looks like he rummaged through his hamper to get dressed in the morning or like he has body issues and thinks he's too fat. I know it's a kids doll, but it's a fashion doll so it's a freaking problem. It's not like he's going for the whole "hip hop-ass" look either, so he has no excuse!

Look at Harley Davidson Ken's vest. It's a black life jacket!

Barbie and Ken were worthless except for making them have sex and I got bored of that pretty quickly...I moved on to making Tee-La and that blue skinned cyclone guy have sex...that's where it was at.

12" joes make me feel inadequate. 3" 3/4 joes make me feel like the king of kings.

Oh my God. Sixty Nine is an actual Poster? I thought it was a spam bot!

B E C K · « **Reply #13 on:** Apr 06, 2006, 10:20:47 PM »

That reply matches your picture.

Hmmm, I'm at 62 users though. It appears it's safe for me to delete the spambots and not affect the user number.

Sixty Nine · « **Reply #14 on:** Apr 06, 2006, 11:59:29 PM »

Yeah. On my board I had like 30 spammers and deleted them all so the number reversted. But if you keep one real user with a higher number but delete the ones under then the new ones will go after the high number.

And as if there are people who even question who I am!

I wonder if pictures of various Ken incarnations is what sparked the Queer Eye Dolls rumours.

Glancing at the picture of old Kens in that article..

70s - Not sure on this one, but he looks almost like a woman. Michael Jackson-ish.

80s. - Fucking Brady Bunch!

90s - Ok, who decided to model him after Pauly Shore?

2000 - The fuck? Another woman? Is this supposed to be Metrosexual Ken?

I can just hear Shaggy's voice now.

In reference to that picture of the shave ken, What in the sam hill?!?! Why the hell did they give Ken a gay beard?!?!

That reminds me of when my dad went to the a new barber shop and they gave him a gay beard. He made them shave it off and I think he left without paying.

Rama · « **Reply #19 on:** Apr 10, 2006, 05:40:10 AM »

A gay beard? How did you know? Was it making passes at all the other beards or did it just have a very outrageous sense of style?

B E C K · « **Reply #20 on:** Apr 10, 2006, 11:02:41 AM »

It was talking with a lisp.

Ah...It all makes sense now.

B E C K · « **Reply #22 on:** Apr 11, 2006, 10:17:52 PM »

Yeah, he was all "There's something wrong with this beard" and it was all "GRRRRRRRRRL!" See attached visual aid:

That is one faggy beard.
