Barbie Fan Club Opens 2016 Renewal Period
The notice went out today to current members for renewal. The public period will open in one week.
That's pretty clever marketing- "all unclaimed membership slots will be offered to the public" insinuating that you could loose your coveted seat and never get in again! Somehow I don't think that getting membership is THAT hard, is it?
Tell me more about these "pivotal" Silkies...are they going to be articulated? Do you know when they might be available, and any idea what the price point will be? I just started collecting Silkstones again after selling most of my collection, and an articulated one would be fun!
Karen - do a Google search for articulated Silkstone dolls. The rest is unknown to me. Read this....https://dutchbarbieworld.wordpress.com/2016/01/12/classic-black-dress-silkstone/
I do not publish readers' links or email addresses. If you wish to contact me or wish me to see something, find me on Facebook and send a FB message. In addition, Blogger is not letting me comment on comments! I'm trying to reconfigure this but I'm at a loss how to do so.

ReplyDeleteAre you aware that membership numbers go in order of joining. Not for me but some very early members covet their numbers as a sort of status symbol.
DeleteOh that's interesting- I hadn't realized that. I guess that would also get people to keep their membership for years.
DeleteLOL. What kind of a sad existence must one have if a registration number for a doll membership is something one aspires to in life.
DeleteI wonder if their numbers get retired to a hall of fame.
DeleteStatus symbol, now that's funny! Lololol
ReplyDeleteOnly considering joining this year because of pivotal Silkies, wondering if head swaps will be possible.
ReplyDeleteI don't see why they shouldn't be possible.
