    Glamourous and Tiny


    Glamour Gals seemed to be Kenner trying to mix the popularity of the Star Wars format with the fashion doll. Even though I wasn't in the demographic, I recall these being heavily TV advertised during "Battle of the Planets" reruns. I'm not sure how well they did however, I seem to recall seeing a massive display of these next to the Mego Eagle Force figures at a "Bi-Way" close out store in the early eighties.

    Kenner used Glamour Girls bodies to mock up Supegirl and Wonder Woman when they pitched the Super Powers line to DC. Oddly enough, Kenner never made Supergirl!

      I love that a "dream date" involves eating an entire chicken!

            Perhaps it's the guy's version of a dream date.

              They look like those little Barbies that came in Happy Meals in the 90's.
