The World's Most Expensive Barbie Debuts in Mexico
The world's most expensive Barbie doll debuted her flashy self in Mexico City this week, sparkling from head to little plastic toes in diamonds and white gold, and honoring the release of her newest film "Barbie and the Diamond Castle."Intended only as a publicity stunt (don't expect to see her sitting next to 'Surfs-Up Beach Barbie' on Walmart shelves this Christmas) she was adorned with 318 diamonds total, displayed on a tiny tiara, earrings, necklace, bracelet, ring, and slippers. She's valued at 1 million pesos, or about $94,000.
I think the best part of her outfit has be the diamond Barbie ring -- several things are out of realistic proportion when it comes to Barbie but imagine the relative size of that rock! I bet Ken is feeling a little inadequate about now...

While People are Starving all over the world I guess guess what people need is a $94,000 dollar Barbie!
This is what we have come to as a world. What a shame!

And that means you give all your money to these starving people and you do not have any money correct?

In response to Jack's comment. I don't think that was Keith's point. I think the point was if you have an extra 94k laying around, there are much better things that it could be put toward, rather than a Barbie.

Barbie at Middle AgeLove her or hate her, Barbie has been a toy store staple for almost 50 years. And despite her reputation as a big-breasted bimbo, she's done quite a lot for a small, plastic lady.View more ยป
