'shaving fun ken' doll

I saw one of these on the 'bay...... Im not really sure what else to say appart from asking if any of you shave in a hat (Im guessing thats what the blue thing top right is)? Does it stop 5 oclock shadow?

(ps. not my pic)

More fodder for this thread!

Oh dear!

Hmm.. I remember seeing this growing up in the 80s.. as many of you know, the George Michael 5 o'clock shadow was really big back then.. and many people including myself were "choosing life" or "relaxing, because Frankie Said So." It was a very George Michael.. WHAM kind of era.. and of course Barbie must adapt!!!

I would buy one just to make fun it when I have cocktail parties.. it would deffinately make a good talking point.

Must be nice to have a shaving cream named after you!

Now who was this toy targeting? I was a big Barbie fan in my youth but never, not even once, was I inclined to run out and buy Ken so I could give him a good shave!

I want to know what you looked for when this came up

What's a magic color-change beard?


Cheers

Looks like George Michael.

I wonder if there is a 'shaving fun barbie' doll as well?

Something tells me a hairy-legged Barbie wouldn't be very popular.

Well what if it wasn't her legs that she would be shaving...

Im not so sure about shaving barbie, but there are more kens! It seems he uses old spice.

Cool Shaving Ken sure likes his Old Spice! To scale, he must have about a gallon!

i love the "sport and shave ken"..... "hes athletic, hes all man"

what magic color does his beard turn too?????
after all he's "all man"

What in the world?

Did Mattel have a dry-spell and run out of new ideas for Ken? "Hey, you know what hasn't been done yet? Let's create a Ken doll that you can shave!"
"Brilliant!!"

Who knew that Ken (who is BBS everywhere else) would have such a hard time taming that 5 o'clock shadow?
