I am continuing to get discrepancies between my measurements and the measurements claimed by others including those who are taking their own measurements, so I have decided to do new measurements for which I will document my methodology for taking the measurements and the exact design year and model of the Barbie I am measuring. I am a professional sculpture so I know how to do this. When I have this project completed I will post it on my web site where anyone interested can see it and how I did it so if they don’t trust me the can check the results for themselves. In the mean time I have the first measurement; for the bust I got 4.875 inches on the actual doll this translates to 31.2 inches for a 6 foot woman (actually a drop down in size from my own earlier stated less accurately taken measurement). 28.7 for a 5’ 6” woman! This is hardly consistent with the outrageous balloon breasts on the authors supposedly scaled up model. The Doll is a Halloween Witch Barbie with a copyright stamp of 1999 so most kids under the age of 13 would probably be playing with this body sculpted doll.

The controversy over Barbie has inspired me to create a video graphic novel that tells the story of a Doll that is persecuted and marked for destruction for being a ”bad influence” on the girl that owns her because of her appearance and the “message” that she sends. The story is told from the point of view of the Doll. If you are interested in this issue I think you might want to check it out. You can watch it for Free at this website http://toyboxbitch.com

You are taking a piece of the doll and augmenting the rest of the body. That is mathematically retarded. Bringing the existing measurements of the doll [29.5cm tall,13.5cm/8.5cm/12.5cm] up to a height of 5ft 9in it would give a woman the measurements of 36/18/33.
Now considering she is almost as tall as Ken. That should put the LIFE SIZE height at 6ft. This gives the measurements of 33/20.75/30.5 not the ridiculous proportions "MADE-UP" by the college kids.

I know three (3) Barbie Girls I’ve met and over a thousand 10’s+ because of my company Fantasia Productions and the 2,000+ events I’ve created since July 4th 1974 the day I returned from the Viet Nam War
Starting a new NPO soon
We require all the Barbie Doll Girls and 10’s on this planet to come forth and help with our medical staff
We know that 90+ % of all divorces taking place since time started is because of problems mostly with women
It’s NOT their fault
It’s our job to help find the answer, why are their real Barbie Doll Girls and 10’s+ which is less than 1% of the woman on this planet
That means 98-99% of all woman need help!
I will be on Oprah and most medical TV programs shortly after we start, which could be soon!
We are hiring the medical staff to help us find the answers
Please share my domains with everyone you know….
Sincerely, Ted
