American Man Doll

How cute is this? The creative people at American Girl made Gar into a doll as a farewell gift! I love his little suit and silk tie, and the briefcase is loaded with tiny books. They even replicated his identification badge and watch. The greying hair is spot on. Do you suppose Mattel will make a Ken version of Gar in China?

Claudia said...: It is perfect. So is Gar working for Mattel in China, and no longer for American Girl - or are they part of the same company?; January 27, 2010 at 10:52:00 AM CST

Saucy said...: What an awesomely cool and creative farewell gift.

If they make him into a Ken doll at any point, I wonder if it would be the early 60's version in the short shorts with the towel around his neck?; February 11, 2010 at 1:18:00 PM CST
