Customer Review: Barbie Collector
I am a collector of Barbies and a huge fan of old hollywood movies, and costumes. I am a bigger fan of the movie “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” than I am of the “Seven Year Itch” but I think this doll is beautiful and will do anyone’s collection justice.
Customer Review: A true collector’s item.
This is one of my favorite Barbies. I suggest this to collectors who admire Marilyn Monroe.

LEGO Bionicle The Mask of Light: Vorahk

Posted on December 20, 2009 by Jack

413B48HTRXL LEGO Bionicle The Mask of Light: Vorahk LEGO Bionicle The Mask of Light: Vorahk A bit of advice: if you’re looking to hire someone for a team-oriented job in your office, skip right past Vohrak’s resume’. To begin with, according to LEGO Bionicle legend, he has some rather dubious work experience, having joined together with five other Rahkshi to obey the evil Makuta and attempt to capture the Mask of Light and prevent the coming of the Seventh Toa. Not only that, he’s power hungry. Literally! He wields a special magic staff that drains the power from all that it touches and transfers that power directly to Vohrak himself. If you’re really trying to foster a collaborative and open environment, that’s just not the kind of guy you want on your team. Granted, he would move up the executive ranks quickly but it just isn’t worth it. This Vohrak model features 45 pieces. –Charlie Williams
Customer Review: Minions of Makuta!
Coming from a gigantic BIONICLE fan and true collector, let me assure you that this LEGO product is one of the best. According to the storyline, Vohrahk is one of the sons of Makuta, the ultimate villain in the BIONICLE world. His powers are the opposite of his enemy Onua Nuva, giving him the ability to drain and release energy rather than recieving it.

Barbie Grease Girl Rizzo

Posted on October 11, 2009 by Lusy

31kmNr1zXkL Barbie Grease Girl Rizzo Barbie Grease Girl Rizzo Relive your favorite movie with this swell series inspired by the favorite female characters of Rydell High, and the enduring movie musical depicting summer nights of drive-in movies, rock ‘n’ roll and drag races at Thunder Road. Doll cannot stand alone. Includes doll and a musical display stand. Doll measures approximately 12″.
Customer Review: It’s OK
I collect Barbies and I think this one was OK. The weird thing is that I got a “Frenchy” stand with my Rizzo doll. Can’t figure out how that happened. I agree with the reviewer who said it really doesn’t look like the actress, but I guess there’s only so much you can do with that.
Customer Review: SO Disappointing
After the brilliance that was the first 2 Barbie as Sandy Dolls in the Grease collection as well as the current “Cheerleader” Sandy, this doll is a huge disappointment. Not only does the face really not resemble Stockard Channing, the hair is a mess(also several little bits of it can be seen stuck to the inside of the box that I received and in nearly every box I have seen in stores.) While the outfit is cute and true to the character , it looks very cheaply made. While I suppose the doll is worthwhile for the true collector of Grease memorbilia, others should probably stick with the Cheerleader Sandy.
