    Oooh, I WANT all three. No shame at all. All I need is a dank hole in the wall mini-club with weridos walking around and I can recreate Blondie's "Rapture" video with my Debbie Harry doll. I wonder if they have accessories...like microphones, guitars and shades.

    Also, since I'm such a nit-picky person, why not go all the way? Hello, Janet Jackson and Whitney Houston 80's dolls? You know for us sistas? I mean Whitney wore that big ass foil bow in the "How Will I Know" video and you can't tell me that that was Barbie influenced. #cyndilauperbarbie

    While the Jem and the Holograms battled the Misfits, in the end the Stingers came out on top. #cyndilauperbarbie

    And Misfits FTW! (I plotzed at the re-release of Peaches and Cream, then double plotzed at the re-release of Barbie & The Rockers. A tripple plotz is in the wings if they re-release the audio casette that came with her.)

    I kind of turned my nose up at this, until I saw that they had Peaches and Cream Barbie, my very first doll. Now I'm all nostalgic, dammit!

    This what the 80's looked like to me. :S #cyndilauperbarbie

    Pish. I gave my Barbie that haircut in the 80's...only I got the side to really look shaved the way Cyndi really had it and painted the hair a brighter orange and red. #cyndilauperbarbie

    Okay, I know it's a 90s show, but PLEASE! THEY MUST DO IT!


    On second though....maybe not. They might make it as bad as the live-action Dragonball movie...


    You can make that movie as long as it's not a monstrosity.

    Was there a TV show about those cupcake dolls?


    And they folded up into cupcakes?


    And what about those flying fairy deals? Those were the best/most dangerous toy ever, and they would make a great weapon in an '80s nostalgia movie.


    (The google search to find this image finds this toy was recalled, which doesn't explain how my sister and I owned easily a dozen of them.)
