Texas “Painsaw Massacre”.

Poor Ken. Someday, millions of years in the future, some geologist from a distant planet will be doing a dig where that pond once was. The geologist will discover a fossilized head about the size of a ping pong ball and conclude that he/she has discovered a whole new species of humanoid.

Ken had no head for business.

Ken definitely had a good head on his shoulders. Exactly whose it was we never asked. But, it was good.

I used to do stop motion movies with them when I had a camera to do it… and bad guys, now my collection only has heroes.

Us Ken dolls often have this loose head problem. Sending us off on business can be a convenient solution no doubt.

On Halloween, you can give him a little pumpkin and let him be the Headless Horseman.

Poor Ken was the victim of a headhunter.

Your upbringing sounds Beatrix Potter-ish.

Ken had a good head on his shoulders. Unfortunately, he ended up having to have rotator cuff surgery, which meant his shoulders were not able to hold his head as well as they could pre-surgery.

I had a Barbie with bendable legs once,but one of the legs broke and poked out through her “skin.” I had a Twiggy doll, so I simply exchanged heads since I preferred my brunette Barbie to the blond Twiggy. I can honestly say I probably had the only small-chested Barbie.

I wonder how much Twiggy would have been worth today if I had left her intact.
