Ken and Hot Toys Guys

 
Fashionista Ken returns with Arabian Nights Ken and Legolas Ken to show the front (FK), the side (ANK), and the back (LK) of the poser Ken body.
 


Fashionista Ken shown with Hot Toys action figures. Okay, sure they have more points of articulation. But Ken wants everyone to know that he is taller than the Hot Toys guys. It isn't just his hat ;-)


 
Oh and he wants everyone to know that while his knees are articulated, those of the new Fashionista Ryan are NOT.
 
 

 
Even though Fashionista Ryan does have bendable wrists. Sigh, Mattel giveth and taketh, Ken reminds us.

    Hello from Spain: I have a fashionista Ryan. It is a pity that his body is not articulated. Only articulate his hands ... I like all your guys bodies. Keep in touch

    Maybe one day, Mattel will give us articulated arms, legs and wrists on a Ken - and then they might be amazed at how many Kens will sell.

    It's ridiculous that they did that to his knees - or didn't do it to his knees.

    I don't understand why Mattel does this. Why would they articulate the arms and wrists and not the legs? Grrrr! Makes no sense...:-)

    I've always loved the Arabian Nights Ken. Sadly he is not in my collection....yet.

    Hi Marta, Carrickters, Muff, Cindi, and Vanessa! Thanks for your comments.

    @Marta, Carrickters, Muff, and Cindi - yes, I am right there with you all about the knee problem. Grrrr ...

    @Vanessa - oh, yes, the Arabian Nights Ken is a cutie. Sending you positive vibes so that you get one of him soon ;-)

    Hello, just found your blog as I was searching for 'mini barbies'. I have these old mini mod barbies from either the 60s or early 70s. Do you have any idea where I could find out what they're worth?

    If yes, you could email me at ann003 {at} yahoo {dot} com.

    Hi Ann! You can send me a photo of your mini Barbie to share here or if you have them online, a link to the photo(s).

    I do not know prices for mini Barbies, but someone else reading here might. I would check for them on eBay under Completed Listings.

    Hope that helps.

    BTW - your red velvet cake looks scrumptious.

    Hi William! Yes, you may ask who the Hot Toys guys are. From left to right: True Type AA, True Type Caucasian (aka Prison Break guy), Ken (NOT a Hot Toy guy, lol), True Type Asian, and True Type Hispanic. Mine are the sold nude ones that came in a clear plastic case. I love their poseable bodies. And they have nice bottoms, ;-D although I should not say so. Ha!

    I have other photos of them under this link.

    Thanks for sharing your Hot Toys guys ... I love seeing them on your site. And I need to catch up with your updated site ... more Hot Toys guys? Oh yes!
