That new Ken looks like they had too many extra Barbie heads lying around and they wanted to use them up.

I am more familiar with the 1980s Ken.  I had the cowboy Ken and he came with a horse.

oh man. i'm bout to divulge some sensitive information here.

I, no joke, got the Barbie camping set for Christmas in 92 or so. I remember Ken's hair being a lot less flamboyant than the 90's Ken that they showed there. It now looks like his neck is longer, his shoulders are losing some serious breadth, and his hair could be your mother's.

This is bad.

This is too funny! Maybe Ken's new look can give us some clues as to why he and Barbie broke up.

I don't actually think that's the 2000's Ken.  I think it's the Justin Timberlake action figure.

Hm.  

I wonder what the My Morning Jacket action figures would look like...

But expensive.  You could spend years saving for the omnichord special set, or the Flying V, or the "very special" double egg drumstick with black tape. ;)
