Yea! I love those, they're all beautiful! Oh, I just have to ask...wtf have they done to Ken?! He looks like a bad version of Ryan Seacrest now lol.
2 old classics:
Medieval Lady (http://www.amazon.com/Barbie-Medieval-Lady-Great-Collection/dp/B000JVYE0W/ref=pd_sim_t_34)
Elizabethan Queen (http://www.amazon.com/Elizabethan-Queen-Great-Era-Collection/dp/B000JLZB2W/ref=pd_sim_t_39)
No Amazon link for this one, but it exists & is beautiful: Queen Elizabeth 1 (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NJ7ClPIY2gQ/STQNIa-ErwI/AAAAAAAABpo/wnHtb5kOf70/s1600-h/barvie_elizabeth.jpg)
and, of course, you can't forget Legolas (http://www.amazon.com/Ken-as-Legolas-Lord-Rings/dp/B0003069V6/ref=pd_sim_t_62) lol
I'm not a big barbie fan...but holy crap! I had no idea she was a Rennie too lol...I have to say Queen Elizabeth is by far my favorite!
Yes I admit it...I own a Barbie Doll (Ken too). Not Rennie but...

AHHHHHHH! I have those Star Trek dolls. Also have the new Kirk, Spock, and Uhura dolls. XD
Btw, the Elizabeth I is GORGEOUS and VERRRRRY expensive! ~400-500 dollar range
I bought the Arwen and Aragorn, blue Italian Renaissance dolls for my granddaughter. Back when I had the money.
I guess Barbie didn't do so well after Ken left her for Midge--but did she really have to hook up with Eddie Munster?

OK back to Renaissance topic.
No Barbies for me, but I do have a Jane Austin action figure with quill pen and notebook!
Oh geez Welsh Wench, I'm so glad I wasn't sipping my coffee just now! That is hilarious!
You shouldn't miss Cougar Barbie (http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=183071233449)... I don't watch any television, so I don't know what show this was originally on, but I think it's a scream.

OUCH!!
She was never my size, either. I think only 2-3 yr olds were her size.
Well, now that rennie Barbie is home, she needs a name...does she look more like an:
Agnes
Anne
C/Katherine
Dorothy
Eleanor
Elizabeth
Frances
Helen
Jane
or Mary? The most votes wins lol :D
i had a barbie who thought she was marie antonette her head kept coming off
lol! :D
I turned a rapunzel barbie into Marie Antoinette...that was the last barbie I was bought.
Barbie is also great in Toy story 3 !
Totally non faire related but this was my fav skit on Carol Burnett Show. Who knew they had a Barbie for it!

Found another lovely I want...I have the book, but never got the accompanying doll (http://www.amazon.com/inch-Isabel-Doll-Girls-Lands/dp/B000BZXHXG/ref=pd_sim_t_1)...but it's never too late right? lol. I guess I could just give the new book to one of my rennie friends...
They need to make a wench Barbie. I was never really big into Barbie when I was a kid, but if it was made right, I would have to buy that one! :)
Hahahahaha that would be interesting!
Woo hoo! More pirates!

I have to say that Mattel does a better job at making their toys look like the real people they're supposed to look like than Jakks Pacific, who make the POTC: On Stanger Tides action figures. The larger figures are better than the 4.5", but only Jack, Gibbs, and Angelica really look even close to the real people. Barbosa looks nothing like Geoffery Rush in either size, and I don't know the actor well enough to really judge, but the Blackbeard figures don't really match up well with the pictures I've seen. In the small size, only Jack and Gibbs are even remotely close to the actors.
Not Barbie, but cool nonetheless I think:
Juliet (http://www.ashtondrake.com/products/913649_romeo-and-juliet-dolls.html) with Romeo to follow! :)
