Barbie & The Birds

[lytehouse]

I saw this at work today and I was wondering if any of you think this is just as disturbing as I do. For collectors, it's ok, but to put this doll in the toys dept.....:jawdrop:
Don't get me wrong, Mattel Toys has done some great Barbie's in the past, but a doll based on Alfred's Hitch****'s "The Birds?", well...I just can't put it into words. What's next? Janet Leigh in the shower from "Psycho?"

Do little girls even play with Barbie's anymore? I guess I don't see anything wrong with this, Barbie™ seems to be just a collector's thing now...

Yes they still play with Barbie, and collectors are a real nice chunk of any toy market. It's my problem that I find this particular Barbie a bit out of the norm for Mattel. I'm sure this was made for the collectors, but I'm not sure it should be in a toy department.

definitely strange, although there doesnt appear to be anything odd about the doll itself, just the name...
