    Groovin' With Ken! An interview with everyone's favorite male fashion doll

    I thought it was a good interview overall. The interviewer calling him a glorified Barbie accessory was a little harsh though.

    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    That was waaay too funny! Y'know, I never even had a Ken doll as a kid. Barbie was just too cool to bother w/ a Ken doll. However, Big Jack and AJ made the scene w/ some of my smaller girl dolls.

      Did you know... All Star Ken actually reuses Big Jim arms? I had to get one for my Big Jim collection cause it's so bizarre. (Big Ken, teeeny arms)

      Also, Barbie's original stingray based corvette... same mold as Jim's Lazervette!

        Ken is so gonna be the big breakout star of Toy Story 3. So much so that I suspect Ken will be a much more popular toy afterwards.

            Ken really is a classic toy and I hope Toy Story 3 gets him some well earned popularity and respect.

            Mattel seems to have gone out of their way since the early 90s to make Ken as silly and emasculated as possible. The Kens from the 70s and 80s were way cooler than ones they make now. The 70s and 80s had All Star Ken and Sport and Shave Ken and then into the 90s we started to get stuff like cringe worthy Earring Magic Ken and the recent emo Fashionista Ken.
