Saturday, August 21st, 20109 Silkstone Dolls in 2010 – All White
Sunday, July 25th, 2010The final word is in (strange since it’s only July still) and the Barbie Silkstone line of dolls, also officially called the Barbie Fashion Model Collection is to consist of 9 dolls this year.
First, there was the Palm Beach line of dolls -
- Swim Suit
- Breeze
- Coral
- Honey (Honey is the DOG!)
- Sugar Daddy (Sugar is the DOG!) – poor dude got shelved due to conservative complaints and never made it into real life…
2010 Palm Beach Line
Then the Mad Man line was announced…
- Betty Draper
- Don Draper
- Joan Holloway
- Roger Sterling
At least this line had MALE DOLLS… who weren’t cancelled! Can you imagine Don and Roger getting cancelled anyway? hmmm… is it because they are philandering jerks and most definitely not gay?
2010 Mad Men Line
And finally, since this year is the 10th year anniversary of the Barbie Fashion Model Collection, a commemorative doll is going to be issued. As of this date, this doll has not been made public yet but there is word that she is very blonde with sparkling blue eyes. Definitely not African American.
10th Anniversary Silhouette
Why does it matter if an African American doll is included in this line this year or not. This line is considered by many collectors to be the high end range of adult collectable barbie dolls. To exclude the representation of an African American doll is very telling… and not in a good way.

Integrity 2010 Lines – Monograms
Sunday, March 28th, 2010So here are the 2010 Integrity Toy Doll lines on this blog finally… or at least the beginnings of it.
I shall start with the Monograms, mostly because in terms of dolls of color there’s pretty much nothing to say about them so it’s an easy (but not so nice) start for the review of the 2010 lines here.
2010 Monograms*
So here we have the Monograms, a doll series that seems to share just one face sculpt for now. From left to right you have -
So… if your idea of diversity is an increase in redheads, then you’ve got it! Or… you could go for the Italian…
Personal boo boo – have ordered Enigmatic because… ? Would have loved to get Brilliance but she was accidently released to dealers before she was to be revealed and now she’s sold out and I didn’t look into her because I was trying to avoid the Monograms!
Other (mostly likely better and more informative) reviews of the 2010 Monogram dolls -
Good news is, there are some more (but not enough as usual) dolls of color in the other Integrity lines… stay tuned!
