I'm a Barbie girl...with a shotgun.
Mar. 4th, 2011 06:32 pmTara, who is my good and loving and tolerant friend, and who does all the graphics for my website, is also a Barbie customizer. She takes normal, every day dolls and turns them into geek icons, like NCIS's Abby Sciuto, or damn near EVERY CHARACTER EVER to appear in an episode of Star Trek. I? Think this is awesome. And that, friends and neighbors, is why I asked Tara to make me a Barbie.
An Alice Price-Healy Barbie. Behold:

Alice! She has the head of an Aquamarine Birthstone Beauty, the right arm of a Hard Rock Barbie, and the body of a Harley-Davidson Barbie. Her shirt is an old, old piece of Ken's wardrobe; her tank top is Barbie Basics; and her hot camouflage pants are proof that she's more awesome than your Barbie. Oh, and did we mention the weapons? She has a shotgun, pistols, grenades, knives, smoke bombs, and a 1:6 scale machete. Yes. BARBIE WITH A MACHETE.

Alice knows what you're thinking. Alice doesn't approve.
My dolls rule!

Date: 2011-03-05 03:40 pm (UTC)I was always a Barbie girl as a child, and I'm starting to pick up a collection again as an adult, so the Alice doll is the coolest thing ever in my eyes.
I already wanted to read these books. But now that I've seen Alice I want to read them more.
