Actually this is a brilliant idea... Don't get me started on the Paris Hiltonization of America.

The American Girl collection was a pretty good start. They were dolls of actual girls from different time periods. Wouldn't you know they're being slammed by the same Conservative Right that also abhors Bratz?

That would be awesome. I think I've seen a Marie Curie action figure in the city, so it's a start. The Marie and Pierre Curie playset would be fan-tastic. When you're ready to make prototypes, I'm totally in.

I wouldn't be so upset about the whole Barbie culture (I'll admit it, I got my start in designing fashion by making clothes for my dolls) if the doll I was dressing had been in any way anatomically possible. If fashion dolls HAVE to exist, where the hell has Barbie's fat friend been the last 50 years?
