    The Barbie Bubble is going to burst! Sell now!!

    Thankfully my portfolio is diversified. I expect my Tamagotchis to go up in value in the coming months.

    It's funny how Barbie collectors look exactly like I picture Barbie collectors looking.

    This shit makes me glad I take all my toys out of the packaging and actually play with them.
    @Dragon Sound - very much so.

    I hope that guy wasn't married to the woman he was sitting next to. If so, she'll have to deal with a lot more than his doll collection...

    39-21-33 indeed. Also 1:26 is a weird case of Barbie narcissism.

    If the stock market crashes, at least you have your beautiful dolls. And your Malibu Woodrow mustache.

    I feel like I just watched a trailer for a David Guest movie.

    Who wouldn't want a 50-year-old 8-inch piece of plastic shaped like a young woman?

    I'm mortified to say that as a kid, I met Marl. My mother was a Barbie collector and made a significant down-payment on a house with her ...uh...investments.
