HONEY WEST-Barbie style

[kingdom warrior]

So I'm a Big fan of the show Honey West Starring Ann Francis, Wanted to have a figure thought about a mego size one but I felt none of the heads came close to looking like her, The Gilbert Honey West Doll is Hideous, sooooooo I began looking for a Barbie that came close to looking like Ann Francis, Her Eye brows,eye lashes lips and mole were all painted by me. I trimmed her hair and did my best to style "The Flip" I also used a Barbie Body that could be posed rather than just be stiff, this is what I came up with

Very cool!

Now THAT is what I call a Barbie.

Sleek, deadly, beautiful; all in one package.

You nailed it.

[thunderbolt]

Dude that is awesome! I love Honey West!

That is a pretty good head for Ann Francis. Much better than the original. Which model Barbie did you use?

That's a recent Barbie not sure if it was a Fashionista or one of the Glitter Barbies

it's kinda like this one but with her mouth closed

BARBIE I CAN BE... Pet Vet - Shop.Mattel.com

All I know is that it cost me two new Barbies to get from my daughter, she totally hustled me in the trade....

Thanks everyone, Now if Only Mattel made an Official one.....

Ah, I figured it was either a Fashionistas or one of the Basics. There are a ton of the Basics line I'd love to get cheap and customize.

The Gilbert Company made two Head versions of HW,..First issue version hideous,.. and the last issue version was made just when the show was canceled, which was more more glamorous,...here's pics (from my collection):

cool pics ,i also love anne frances ,i got the honey west show on dvd ,and one of those
honey west dolls that was signed by ann,but you know the health spa dinah in her black
tights looks a bit like what a mego honey west would look like.i got one of those,all i need is
a frances head,perhaps bif bang pow will do anne from" after hours"

from the twilight zone,although her hair is shorter the show was in black & white,and you could slip her into
one of those outfits -and your almost there with a retro honey west figure
