Nice stuff, I love Commander Gampu! Forgot there was a Space Camp Barbie, I want that, too. Jane West has potential to be joining the collection someday, and who is the Bratz-clone in silver with a headset on, in the top row?

All-in-all a nice selection.

Thank you for posting these, Woodsy!

Jane Apollo, or one of her sisters or clones thereof, is one doll I would really like to add to my collection. Maybe some day ...

And what's that video, RAB? It's asking me to prove I'm an adult (chokes with laughter). It wouldn't be rude now, would it?

RAB said...

I'm sorry for that, PT...and I was specifically hoping you'd see that video! :-( I promise it wasn't anything adult or risque -- I'm not that kind of boy, honest -- just a fan-made video for the song "Space Girl" by The Imagined Village, incorporating clips from Star Trek, Farscape, UFO, Doctor Who, and pretty much every space-based SF show or film you can recall. Someone was overly prudish in flagging this as adult content, to say the least. It's a gorgeous song and a excellent video.

You can still watch the video with a YouTube login, or alternately, here's another video for the same song:
