Are they going to be life-size, anatomically correct dolls? I'm just, y'know, wondering.

No Pat Benatar? EPIC FAIL!

 
hitmanric 2009-11-18 12:50:28 PM  
This line of dolls needs:

Suzanna Hoffs
Pat Benatar
Bananarama
Go-Gos
Annie Lennox
The Wilson sisters

All back in their 80's hotness.

 
hitmanric 2009-11-18 12:51:17 PM  
Also I can't imagine the noise that comes out of the Cyndi Lauper doll when you pull the string.

 
bradley547 2009-11-18 01:01:45 PM  
And who knew that Cyndi Lauper has the same proportions as Barbie?
I'm sorry but CL with Vegas Showgirl proportions looks just silly.

Guess they can't produce Belinda Carlisle dolls in thier barbie plastic molds.

/might like a Chrissy Hynde or an Exene Cervenka.

Also:

Dale Bozzio
Kim Wilde
Lita Ford
Laura Brannigan
Olivia Newton-John
Fiona (Flanagan, not Apple)

And..If you really want a correctly proportioned Barbie Doll Ladies of The 80s, then I can think of no one more deserving than:

Samantha Fox

Not for nothin', but the one they call a Debbie Harry looks a lot more like a Terri Nunn.

/Collect 'em all!

An '80s list really should include Madonna.

 
Nina_Hartley's_Ass 2009-11-18 03:17:09 PM  
I'd think they could sell a few of these.

Perhaps materials cost would be too high.

Oh yeah. Toss in Martha Davis from The Motels. Fell in love with her watching the "Suddenly Last Summer" and "Only the Lonely" videos. Oh and Rindy Ross...could care less about Quarterflash but something about a woman playing a sax.

Just be glad they're not making a Karen Finley doll.

/comes with Belgian waffles.

 
Lord Snoopy's G.P.E.H. 2009-11-19 12:38:01 AM  
They wouldn't dare make a Chrissie Hynde doll, but it would be........precious.

 
Hugo Zorilla 2009-11-19 01:20:38 AM  
What about "The Weathergirls"?
Or Sister Sledge?
Karen Carpenter?
Mia Zapata?

Does the Joan Jett doll beat the living crap out of you for buying a Joan Jett doll?

Seems to be a lot of "who was hot in music in the 80's" threads lately...

I'll jump on the bandwagon pre-order my Jane Wiedlin life-size doll plz...

 
Bathia_Mapes [TotalFark] 2009-11-19 04:38:48 AM  
Does the Wendy O. Williams model include a bus and a wall of TVs, or are those extra?

You DO realize that's not Joan Jett, right?

I'd rather see these ladies of the 80's:

Ginger Lynn
Christy Canyon
Lois Ayres
Amber Lynn
Keisha
Traci Lords

well, you get the idea...
