Sorry Joan, But Those Hips Just Won't Do




Barbie's back, and more unrealistic than ever. If that's possible.

Limited edition dolls of AMC's Mad Men were just released, and include a Barbie-fied version of Joan Holloway, one of the main characters on the hit series. Unfortunately, Mattel has decided that Joan's curvy physique is just not up to par, and has thus conveniently opted to cut her body mass in half, leaving only a red coiff and prim secretary ensemble to represent the character... and the women of the decade this show aims to replicate.

Ohhhhh, interesting. I love "Mad Men." The doll's hair, makeup and outfit are totally spot on. I agree about the hips. It would have been nice to see a curvy Barbie.
