Mattel and Lionsgate have released pictures of these new Mad Men Barbie figures. Part of the Fashion Barbie Collection these figures will be aimed at dedicated Barbie Collectors than the kiddies.

Personally I think they look stunning, you can see how much love and time has been taken recreating the 1960s fashions and they've done a damn good job especially on the girls. We have seen with so many 12" figures before that a suit is so difficult to recreate, the best example probably being a Hot Toys figure (possibly TDK Joker). The girls in this set look particularly stunning though.

The figures will be produced in 'limited runs' of between 7 and 10,000 of each character.

    Last year, Takara made an amazing Transformer out of a pun, mashing up the big bad guy, Megatron, with Sega's 16-bit Mega Drive. And while it was nowhere near as punny, they followed it up with a Playstation-based Optimus Prime. But they stopped there.

    While I'm partial to the "hard-luck" Hanshin Tigers, these sneakers - a collaboration between the Hiroshima Toyo Carp and Vans - are super adorable.

    Last year, Back to the Future Day came and went without a public release of the Nike Mags. About a year later and we plebs are getting a chance to finally own simulacra of the most iconic movie shoes short of Dorothy's ruby slippers.
