Wow! They look GREAT! I do hope thier target audience is adults though, I would hate to see little girls emulating the show with their dolls 
Interesting! From the look of it, they're going to do them with the Silkstone Dolls, so we can hope for good quality dolls and outfits (I must admit what Mattel has been doing with their "normal" collectible Barbie line hasn't thrown me off the rocker the last few years... and I am a Barbie fan and collector!). The Joan doll would be "my" thing 
. And with the Silkstone dolls, the girls will have "classic" Barbie proportions. I don't like that "ModelMuse" body they've been using on their other collectible dolls in the last years. Ok, it gives the doll a nice pose, but that body is so thin (you can't get those doll's outfits on "normal" Barbie bodies!). They did a Honey Ryder doll with this body - that's such a shame, she looks so too thin! I mean, Ursula Andress just looked so fabulous then, but the doll just doesn't...
