Valley of the Dolls...

[judydarling]

I got lucky shopping today and picked up a Cowardly Lion barbie doll still mint in box for $25. (not the newly released dolls, it was the pink collectors version)

He is cute. Meant to be 'Ken' but all dressed up as cowardly lion instead. I think I will try and get the Dorothy barbie if I ever see it in the stores.
The lady at the shop told me these kinds of dolls would be collector's items in the future and sell for big bucks! I don't know about that, as I would like to take him out of the box and play with him, I've done that with my Scarlett O'Hara mattel doll and my Judy as Esther Smith Madame Alexander doll, but she is porcelain and quite heavy so I put her back in the box.

I guess I got the collector's bug now..but what I really would like is a Rhett to go with my Scarlett, although if I did that they probably would fight all the time...

I wonder if they ever put out a Liza Minnelli doll??

I was never really into dolls but I do have lions and tigers and bears!

Check out this site! www.angelicdreamz.com/store/Barbie_Wizard_of_Oz.html
They now have Wizard of Oz Musical Barbie dolls for sale! Each doll plays a snippet of the song from the movie.

Hmm don't know about that Liza doll. I'm sure they wouldn't allow a Barbie to be made of Liza as Sally Bowles. Maybe to sell in an 'adult' shop lol. Although then again those Bratz dolls look more like Liza's style.

I like the tonner dolls.
But way to expensive for my budget

I now have another scarlett doll of her in the red dress.

As for Liza I was reading in a bio of her recently that she almost became like Sally Bowles in the movie. However much she wanted a child - she couldn't because she miscarried and would marry the wrong kind of men, who were only with her because of her money and her connections.

Just to add my friend gave me a Dorothy Doll. She is so cute! She looks just like a mini-Jemima!
