It's the summer of Barbie: Let's see your favorite dolls and action figures
Barbie and Ken dolls, like these 2010 models from the movie "Toy Story 3," were a staple of many childhoods. LQP would like to see some of your fave dolls and toys. (Photo courtesy of Mattel Inc.)
A summer movie lineup that includes Barbie's debut on the big screen plus the latest installment in the Transformers series shows that many of the toys we grew up with remain as popular as ever.
Whether we are embracing the power of play or are fueled by simple nostalgia, we love our toys – and Lo Que Pasa wants to see which ones you have held on to since childhood.
So dig out that 1980s Barbie Dreamhouse or vintage G.I. Joe battle tank (or another favorite doll or action figure), take a photo of it and send it to andyober@arizona.edu along with your name and title plus a description of the image and any memories it evokes.
We will share the images in one of the remaining summer issues of Lo Que Pasa.
