 Re: Singapore Barbie Collection
fair-play to him, he's collecting what he likes and couldn't care less what other people think.
very nicely displayed too!

 Re: Singapore Barbie Collection
"His boyhood interest turned into a "crazy obsession" that his friends support and his family has come to accept." I'd venture to say his father might still be coming to terms with this... To echo the other members: good for him, he's collecting what he loves... and damn, that is some real dedication.

 Re: Singapore Barbie Collection
I would love to see that collection. As objects of such cultural importance, having a timeline like he has is got to be a treat to anyone.

I love looking at collections..... When a collection of anything reaches a scale like this, it is super impressive. Great dedication! Some Singaporeans are really hardcore collectors

 Re: Singapore Barbie Collection
I would love to have the space and money. I love the shot of the guy on the staircase and the lit barbie case in the wall. A good display speaks wonders.

 Re: Singapore Barbie Collection
My mother collected Barbies when I was a kid. Kept them boxed, probably had 1,000 or so. Some of them were pretty cool. I sorta always wanted to collect Jem dolls, as an adult collector.

 Re: Singapore Barbie Collection
I agree with ya'lls. I like his STOOL too, and why is so happy about Bin Laden? ( and where can I get one)
