Football Fever

Are you ready for some FOOTBALLLLLLLL?  I don't personally care much for it, but football season is a huge deal at my place of employment.  So, I thought I'd grab a couple of my dolls at work and get them in on the action.

One of my co-workers bought a football helmet standing tracker set similar to this one, and I borrowed some helmets.  They are a good fit for most 1/6 males.

I'm sure that a lot of my action figure guys (and probably some of my action figure ladies) wish that I could bring these home for them to wear.

Here are my guys having football fun around my job site.

My dolls at work are fine, but they don't really look like football players to me.  So here's a bonus shot of one of my action figures at home.

Dollar Store Dolls

Feast your eyes on my dollar store guys!

Let's take a closer look, shall we? First up, it's a brown skinned guy with a pompadour. He was a bargain even by dollar store standards. I think that I paid around 60 cents for him. He was a companion to one of the few Barbies that I had back then. I already had 2 Kens that looked just alike and I did not want another with that same face, so I decided that this doll would be a stand-in until I could find a different doll. This was in the mid 1990's before I began my internet shopping spree that has not ended. He used to have a name, but I forgot it long ago (in fact, I don't remember the names of any of these guys).

Next we have a guy with a crew cut. He was purchased to serve as a companion to my blonde Barbie, but the union was short-lived because of the next dollar store guy.

This one's a keeper! Here we have a fully articulated male figure that only cost $1. He had a long relationship with blonde Barbie - her longest relationship to date. She left him earlier this year though for 40th Anniversary Ken.

I've posted this in response to Johnny, Bargain Ethnic Fashion Doll. Because of this post, I have rescued these dolls from my Bin of Forgotten Figures. If you have dollar store dolls, do not be ashamed, post pics for everyone's enjoyment!
