She Said Yes!
After splitting on Valentine's Day 2004, Barbie and Ken announced today that Valentine's 2011 is the day they found love again! Ken's campaign has been nothing short of amazing! From the fabu Magnolia cupcakes to the billboard campaign to declaring his love in Times Square for all to see, how could Barbie say no?!? Of course she couldn't. These two were meant to be. I always knew they never stopped loving each other! To celebrate, Ken was on hand New York and in Los Angeles at the Grove to let Barbie and Ken fans pose with Ken and make it an all around happy day! Click here to watch a cute vid summarizing how they got back together! Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
I did not go to Times Square or Kmart NYC. I had a photo taken at Dylan's Candy Store, its free. After visiting the toy fair, I felt Mattel did not make huge improvements on Ken doll, its really nothing new about him, the "she said yes" Ken has the worst stiff body type. I wish Mattel didnt have to raise Barbie dolls' prices to support such massive Ad Campaigns for Ken. yes, its his 50th, it doesnt mean he could automatically sell himself only b/c he gets older but not wiser.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad with the massive marketing campaign they didn't sell the cute couple that is appearing in the actual ads. That's a cute Ken and Barbie. I will get the set at some point if I find it and put in a Barbie and Ken I like in the package. I like the packaging more than the dolls yet again.
