Birds Barbie-For the Girl Who Wants to be Afraid of Everything.


The Rachel Maddow Show featured this surreal moment in Barbies life.

I really thought it was a joke. Would Mattel actually sell this frightening horrific moment from Alfred Hitchcock's classic movie "The Birds?"

Selling between $35 and $50, I had to have one. Look at the darn thing.
Who would want to impose this lasting trauma of birds attacking an innocent woman dressed to the hilt? Mattel. How do you promote something so perverse:

"Based on the classic movie! Includes real fake birds! High-quality head looks scared and has awesome hair! This Barbie is for The Birds!"

"Will these plastic birds damage her delightful handbag or her carefully styled hair? We certainly hope not!

Be sure to let Barbie into your home and pray that the birds don't come in with her! Stands about 11 1/2-inches tall. "

What's next, Jaws Swimming Barbie, Goldfinger's Golden Girl Barbie, Burning Bed Barbie or Psycho Shower Barbie?
