Hey all--
I'm new to the board, so don't skewer me with arrows if someone has posted this elsewhere.
If I am known for anything strange, it's my Legophile tendency and my large (and darn cool) collection of Barbie dolls. As a collector, I've been waiting impatiently for confirmation of this for some time, and I thought I'd share it with you all. As a follow-up to the Aragorn and Arwen set, Mattel is producing Barbie as Galadriel and Ken as Legolas, sold separately. You can see them here:
http://www.barbiecollector.com/news/news/20040713.aspx
Hope I did that right. This is kind of a big deal (as there are a lot of Legophile Barbie collectors too!), partly because I believe this is the first time a Ken collector doll has been packaged individually. Personally I think the Galadriel doll is stunning, and Legolas could use some work. But I'll still giggle like a school girl when I get him (at least twice)!  |

Bless you FairyFaye
Well I guess I know what sweet little Sindohte is going to get for Christmas because she has been a very good girl this year Legolas looks pretty darn gorgeous to me. Oh and Galadriel looks nice to btw  _________________ abandon thought, and let the dream descend... |

Welcome fairyfaye ... I was a bit skeptical when I heard about a Leggy Ken Doll, but it does look pretty good! Galadriel is simply gorgeous!
Nice avvie, by the way ! _________________ ~ boe an phân pedi ‘lam dadui ~

Thanks, Thuriniel. Who knew there were elves in the Las Vegas airport?
And it gladdens my heart that Barbie can bring such joy to others. Though if I were the kind who actually played with my Barbie dolls, I could find Legolas someone more suitable than Scully, I think. There are several pointy-eared fairies he might like, or perhaps I Dream of Jeannie or Samantha from Bewitched. Maybe the blond Star Trek gal? |

Please post the pics someplace! From one old Philer to another
Of course, you could have WAY too much fun having M and S 'Mary Sue' it into Middle Earth...wait...wait...is that some sort of bizarro plot bunny or what(there has likely been worse done, no doubt). **goes off wondering if Mulder could find sunflower seeds in ME or what the Lone Gunmen would do with the fact that Hobbits exist....**

The mind boggles. The Legolas one is kinda scary, but the Galadriel one is also rather nifty.
Although my internal Canon Nazi is shrieking in pain at the following line: Queen of the Elves. Galadriel? Queen?!
(That said, they also mention Thranduil so I forgive all ills.)
Thanks for the heads up on this! _________________ ~Hathor~
