Mattel Launches Barbie Palm Beach Sugar Daddy Ken Doll
Posted on October 28, 2009
We aren't sure what to think of this unusual Ken doll from Mattel. Sugar Daddy Ken is part of the Barbie Palm Beach collection. He is described as wearing a "dashing jacquard-patterned jacket with a light pink polo shirt and crisp white pants."
The product description says Ken "is ready for Palm Beach social season, sunning by the pool and a stroll with his little companion." Little is too large of a word to describe that super tiny dog that is not much higher than Ken's shoes. Sugar Daddy Ken also comes with "swim trunks" so Ken can remove his crisp white pants and hang out by the pool.
Sugar Daddy Ken will not be available until April 2010. It is sold for $81.99 from Entertainment Earth.
Barbie Movie Update
Sugar Daddy Ken was represented in the recent Barbie movie. He was played by actor Rob Brydon.
An updated version of the doll was also released featuring Ken in a pastel suit with a little dog. You can find it on Amazon.com.
