I suppose as a kid we would have loved the western ones.. I don't know - there weren't that many back then...

I hated Braveheart. I hate bad endings - that's what the news are for. The Others take them.

Actually, I've never seen Braveheart.

Oh then don't, it's one of those Mel-Gibson-loves-himself-feasts  :lol:
And it has a horrible ending too, yes.

Maybe kids today know highlanders through Disney's 'Brave'? I dunno.

My nephews, aged 3,5 and 7, like racers and dinosaur rangers, but mostly ... well, hotwheels.

Interesting question - I'm thinking I would have been trying to figure out which could be best used to create more cool female klickies.  I was never really into pink sparkly stuff.  When my best friend and I played Barbie our favorite theme was "Amazon Barbie" and we made outfits out of scraps,  I don't even want to think about what we did to poor Ken...

Ha, that sounds like so much fun  ;D 
My sisters and I didn't see our Barbies as kitchen-maids or super models either. Actually, since there was always a lack of 'Kens', it was a pretty women-empowered Barbie world: Barbie as a news anchor, Barbie working at a travel agency, Barbie as a rock star...

I don't think my tastes in klickies has changed much since I was a kid. My favorites of this series would have been the highlander, the Arabian guy, the Chinese/Mongolian lady and possibly the 50's lady and the fairy queen (the one with the new cape).

Good point. I would think so.

When I was a child, I beheaded Ken.  :lol:

Did we have a suggestion thread for F?gures?

Excellent. 

I feel much better about his enslavement - oh, and the broken arm.

Good point, there were never enough Kens.  I think at one point I had a Barbie who was dubbed "Divorce Barbie"  this allowed her to be a single mom.  I don't think her having a child out of wedlock even occurred to us.

poor kens living in a girls house  :lol:

Our British neighborhood friends brought loads of big Gi-Joes and Barbie dolls were exactly that, Barbie dolls who were passed around amongst the troops  >:D Good thing the toy manufactures already pre dressed them for the job  ;)

By some miracle I came across some series 6 clickies in Buenos Aires so I bought them-
I confess I didn't read the previous 5 pages, so sorry of some of the following has already been said. but here's my feedback for what I got.

First thing I noticed is that the plastic is different. It looks more bendy, not as shiny and more porous. NOt great!!  :(
I got:
Maleficent (or the witch) I really like her though the classic face to me looks a lot better than the crazy one. the cape in that opaque plastic is horrible.
Chinese girl: I LOVE the dress golden details. amazing printing!
polcadotes woman: ABSOLUTLY BEAUTIFUL!!!! though she would have look better with black hair and other type of cuff. Nothing I couldn't change  ;) Other than that she is beautiful.

pirate; i reall like him, the coat color is great and the beard and bandana are really cool too.
cowboy: I like him though other hair color would have been better, he looks too "clean and blonde" to be a cowboy.
karate guy, really cool figure. was the old Special a fat clicky too? or this is supposed to be the same guy but "older"?  :lol:
aladin or whatever he is. really cool too. I love the pecs  :lol: I never noticed that before.
pijama guy.... the simplest figure but I LOVE HIM. the color is beautiful and the print is really cool too.
alien.... mmm very dissapointing. The pearly-green parts are hideous and the re-use of the "police stick" (I don't know it's name) as an alien weapon is scary and kinda lame IMO!!!  >:( >:( >:( >:( Any other stick wold have been better.

That's all I could get so far.   :'(

The polka dot girl is a very pleasant surprise.  She came out really fantastic - much better than the pictures.

Thanks for the pictures now if they could just get here on retail that would be fantastic.  Love the sword on the highlander!
