B is for Bab's Aplenty!

Further to the previous post's Barbies, and apropos a comment Tom made a while back, he sent this image of various Barbies, in the smaller scales, some of which we saw here;
 
 
As a point to mention - there are now several of these micro-mini 'branded' collectables, but the others are more consumer goods or, foodstuffs, for doll's houses, or similar. Anyway, here's the new shot; 
 
And I'll let him explain . . . 

"...a pic of the 'world's smallest toys' Barbies I mentioned the other day:
 
These are a separate line to their original mystery boxes, being closer to 1/72 and sold in their own 'fashion case' or house sets. There are 6 figures in the range (albeit, some are duplicate sculpt/different paint job) - I'm in quest of the dark haired version of 'totally hair'. The two boxed figures to the right are the larger scale sculpts from the original mystery box line.

And there you have it - I am a middle aged man collecting Barbie dolls. But I'm gonna mix them with my army men, promise!"

To which I would add, that the smaller boxed Barbie (left of the pair) is the second series one, the larger box (far right) is the one we saw from the first series. And many thanks to Tom Clague for this update, I nicked the title from his eMail, and he actually uses them in his model railway stories, here;
