A while back I made it a point to collect Barbie dolls. Not the pink box ones that you would give a young girl, but the collectors dolls that are a bit more expensive. I am so glad that Mattel has the ability to branch out into different cultures to create some stunning dolls. They did a Legends of Ireland collection a few years ago and I just came across this new lovely today while looking for present ideas for my niece and nephews.
Meet Aine. I would so love to make that dress. Going to Toys R Us today. If they have it, it shall be mine.
http://www.barbiecollector.com/shop/search.aspx OMFG I can't believe I missed the Deidre doll!! FUCK!! :( And it's soooooooooo expensive now on eBay. Crap, I guess the hunt begins. Hmmm maybe there will be one floating around the toy store. Crosses fingers and toes. CRY .
Also Toy Vault saw to it to finally make a plush
LUDO! He's so cute, I can't stand it. Methinks this will be on my b-day wishlist. He will look quite adorable next to the plush Sir Didymus that I bought a year or so ago.
EDIT: And omg isn't this one cute too.
Step dancer Barbie! GAH!
