After exploring the Mad Men tie-in dolls, and the Pussy Galore Barbie, I thought I’d put together a list of the character tie-in Barbies that I find the most unexpected or otherwise remarkable!
Dale Earnhardt Jr Barbie.
Note this is not just a NASCAR Barbie as it would appear at first glance - it is specifically Dale Earnhardt Jr branded and themed.
Alexis from Dynasty
It’s a very nice design, but much like the Mad Men tie-ins, I would not have thought of Dynasty as being a media property ripe for a Barbie tie-in.
Jacob from Twilight
Okay, okay, Twilight is definitely a good product for a tie-in. But the Jacob cracks me up. At least the other character Barbies get to wear clothes.
George Washington
What I love about the George Washington Barbie is that they went with Barbie, rather than a Ken.
Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds
This is from the same collection as the Pussy Galore, and I understand this even less.
Human AU headcannon: Dale Earnhardt Jr is the unofficial fifth friend in Lightning, Cal, Bobby, and Brick’s friend group.
Although Dale’s a little bit older and has been racing a bit longer, he enjoys hanging out with them (and they enjoy hanging with him too). He’s the one with the brain cell, but most of the time, chooses not to use it (he has terrible impulse control like his old man).
I have a bunch of fanfic ideas where these idiots do dumb shit and find themselves in strange situations.
