Guys & Dolls

 

If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?

Left, These guys were never like this in Beverley Hills 90210!

Right, we have our Ken doing his thing with none other than Peter Andre!

To be honest, Elvis here is not the dolls I would have wanted, the one I want comes as part of the 'Barbie loves Elvis' gift set. This version is actually a telephone! Marilyn is a doll I hope to replace with the beautiful Barbie version ASAP. This one is OK and for only £10 what am I complaining about, but I just love the Barbie version!

Barbie has done a few famous people in her time, Marilyn is one of the more recent, one I am ashamed not to have is Dorothy of OZ! I mean, call my self a queer and I don't have Dorothy! She has also been Scarlet O'Hara and Eliza Dolittle, probably a few others, I'll get back to my books!

This is a small collection of my 'dolls'. Most are in my bedroom but I have a much larger collection scattered throughout the house

Left, Does this prove that Robbie Williams (no relation) really is queer too? Judging by where Ken has his hand it is very possible!

Right, Did you ever wonder what happened to MC Hammer? Well here he is, obviously a complete queer giving a 1970's Ken a bit of a feel!

The influence of Robbie again! I always had questions about the sexuality of Take That!

But seriously, I doubt any of them are actually gay but a guy can dream can't he? Do we know of any gay members of Boy bands? Stephen, from Boyzone is strongly rumoured to be batting for our side and he is too cute to be straight! Do we have any confirmed gays in the boy band industry? Well you heard it here first! I had it down as a rumour about our Stephen and now we know for a fact... HE IS FAMILY!

Above, A fine bunch of Lesbians if I ever did see any!

To the left are my oldest dolls. I have Ken, Barbie and Alan (Ken's friend..yea right!) Now there just has to be a reason why Ken and Barbie never got married and my guess is that he and Alan have a bit of a thing for each other. Alan did actually marry Barbie 'friend' Midge but they apparently separated after yet another 'camping' trip that Ken and Alan were on.

To the right there is a reproduction of one of the original Barbie dolls and next to her an absolutely stunning 'black' Barbie.. I'll search out all my book and remind myself what they are called for the next update... this really is not good enough!

I like to have as many Disney related items as possible too. Trouble is, they are very hard to come by when I happen to have the cash to buy them

These two come from the Disney resort in Paris. On the left is a guy from Pirates of the Caribbean and on the right is Davy Crocket. The Barbie on the right speaks French, well not fluently but the normal sort of stuff you expect from a Barbie doll!

This is a group from Aladdin, one of my favourite Disney Movies. The Genie we bought from Disneyland Paris but both Aladdin and Jasmine were bought really cheaply

It is strange how this silly little affair came to pass, apparently Mattel withdrew permission for Barbie to appear as Little Bo Peep in Toy Story but not before they had commissioned this doll which appeared in shops about the same time as the release of the film

evil_queen.jpg (8508 bytes) malefecent.jpg (8326 bytes) mary_poppins.jpg (9248 bytes) You may ask yourself why these three are here together? I have no idea! The point I was going to make was that both the evil bitches are not real dolls but simply Barbie in a mask and costume, Mary Poppins (bless her!) is her own glorious self however.

Some Day My Prince Will Come... well that's as may be, for now you will have to make do with the doll dear!

Hercules is a very recent addition to the Disney clan. I had to wait until Christmas 1998 before they were affordable!
