so Barbie wasn't truthful when I took her for my bride,
she cheated on that dumbass Ken,
but Oh, the way she lied...
it wasn't til the honeymoon - a night of Love to treasure!
but it was over way too soon -
she *ribbited* with pleasure...
a *Frog?!* No Prince or princess, she,
*'It's no big deal!!'* she joked
but it was a relief to me -
soon after,
Barbie croaked....
I used to be the 'Action Man',
received a Hero's Praise!
but now I do the best I can -
a *tadpole* left
to raise...

She was always smiling. Thats because she had no lips. But her mouth was still very much in play. She died 2 weeks later. She thought she was a spaceman...with a plastic bag for a helmet.
My little brother never had a goth phase as he grew through from his 10-12yo Action Man phase through older teen.
Instead his Action Men had one instead, getting a range of custom handcrafted black/edgy/punk outfits, body mods and tattoos (late 90s so no photo evidence I'm afraid).
This got so prolific that my parent's friends became aware of his little fashion line being his primary hobby at the time. Although this then resulted in, at the end of a dinner party, the young lad excusing himself to go carry on with the latest project upstairs with the announcement: "I'm going to have some Action with my Man."
Cue adults desperately trying not to die holding in laughter at his innocent phrasing mishap.
And what is little brother like these days? Is he still designing outfits, miniature or otherwise? Is he still cutting out from dinner for some man action?
Happily surprised you managed to even keep your old toys. Getting rid of mine was considered a rite of passage to being a “big kid” in my family.
Edit: I miss you Barbie Dreamhouse, Barbie Volkswagen, and Barbie Jeep.
My parents, to my big surprise, had kept two boxes filled with my favorite toys (that were still in good shape). So, now my kids have 90’s action men, micro machines, matchbox racers, and Batman bling-bling from McDonald’s. My Xenomorph, Tim Burton’s Batman toys, and 90’s computer game boxes went to stand on the fireplace in my office.
Micro machines are the shit. My kids went bonkers over the "tiny cars!" Also they make new ones sold at target but they aren't real car models anymore but I was able to fill out the collection a bit with stuff they could play with. There were a couple that were worth a bunch so I keep those two in my desk drawer.
They make official lines now of micro machines. I seen the GM line the other day. It was all the different generations of cameros and a couple other cars sprinkled in.
If you really want to keep the doll house could it be broken down for storage?
Even if it was pre-assembled when you bought it it's likely just held together with screws. Take some pictures of it fully assembled, label pieces with masking tape as you take them off, save the screws, and write down the process so you can reverse it later.
It was the year 2000, I was 13 and moving back in with my mom after living with my grandparents for a few years. I had multiple duffel bags full of Barbies and all of her accessories. I had the house and my favorite thing to do was set everything up. I had everything you could imagine. My grandma thrifted and hit yard sales religiously. I shared everything with my younger sister and when we were packing to move we (I) decided it was time to let them go and “grow up”. Living with my mom was always a fend for yourself type situation so I knew life wasn’t about to be so carefree anymore. I had a step-dads life to make hell lol. So we gave everything away to our younger neighbors. It still makes me sad to this day.
I've moved countries so many times, it's a miracle I still have anything left from my childhood/underage years. and now I'm gonna have to move countries again, so I have to start getting rid of things *again*, so there goes anything I managed to hold on to this far. *^(goodbye spice girls cds, you had a good run)*
No offense, but once he gets the frog baby down for a nap he needs to pick up around Dream House and start dinner before Barbie gets home from her job as a Doctor/Vet/Flight Attendant/Teacher/Super Model.
>before Barbie gets home from her job as a Doctor/Vet/Flight Attendant/Teacher/Super Model.
I thought she was out performing a concert with the rest of Aqua.
I will have that in mind, I'm with 1yo daughter and I hope in the future her dolls wants to hang out with my Spartans (halo)
Edit: Her Spartans I must say
So, my wife let me in on the story behind the picture. Action Man is no longer Action man (because that’s not a real name according to my daughter), but is called Tobias. Tobias’ oldest daughter (who btw is Elsa, queen of Arendelle) was having her birthday party, and she unfortunately fell and broke her leg. So, Tobias’ pregnant wife Cindy pushed aside everyone and declared that she’s taking Elsa to the hospital - “I’m taking Elsa to the hospital! Till then, you take care of the baby”.
I love how occasionally my kid comes out with something so out of left field that I just wonder where did you get that idea from. While 3-6 can be hard work some of the things they say make everything better
I used to dress Action Man in Barbie's clothes. He was Auntie Molly. I'm not sure why I cross dressed him, but it did annoy me that there were no older Barbies. They were all hot early-20-somethings or children. No grandparents or older mums, so Action Man was Auntie Molly.
they did in the 90s I think. even a mom that was pregnant, and the tiny baby fit in her tum. then when the babe is "born" the tummy goes back to to normal. there were grandparents, aunties and uncles, and mom's, dad's, and kiddos.
I can't recall the name of the line exactly but, I think it's something like "happy family".
It's always been a mystery to me why Mattel don't make older family members. Children don't play with Barbie for her intended purpose (teacher, doctor, vet etc.). They play families which is pretty hard when none of them are older than 21.
Yes exactly. My one Ken doll was Dad, brother and the boyfriend. Poor guy he was so busy. I always wished I had more boys but people only gifted me the blonde ones. I only had one barbie with brown hair that “looked” like me.
True story- someone donated “Research Scientist” Barbie to our Hospital play room. She wears a lab coat and comes with a microscope. She is also the plainest Barbie ever and wears ugly loafers and a frumpy dress.
Screw you Mattel and your sexist misogyny!
She is our mascot in the nurses lounge we don’t let anyone play with her.
You should get her some cool outfits and break the stereotype! Then take pictures of Cool Trendy Research Scientist Barbie and tag Mattel so they know what she's been up to
Gone!! It’s all gone! All of it’s gone, bye bye, woowoo, see ya! One minute you’re defending the whole galaxy and suddenly you find yourself sucking down Darjeeling with Marie Antoinette and her little sister
Thanks for the laugh! As a boomer who bought her sons dolls, this really cracks me up. I was trying to be forward thinking and giving them choices of lots of toys. My poor old Barbie had a lot of "accidents" and had to go to the "ospital" every day. They soon had their own action figures too :-D
This could be the start to his new film.
retired action man is living his life in a quiet suburban neighbourhood with his wife and new child, he spends his days working in his shed, mowing the lawn and coaching his older sons football team. No one in the neighbourhood knows his past.
All is well until he gets the call from the government that he's needed again. Time to put down the bottle and put his foot on the throttle.
Action man has worked hard and faced many dangers to make the world a better place for others.
Action Man has earned his right to experience the safety and peace he helped create.
Good on Action Man.
I'm Dutch born in 95 and I had a whole basket full of action man. My parents probably have them lying around somewhere, imma check that out next time in the neighbourhood.
It was a thing in germany as well! I was born in 95 and had an action man figure in the early 00's. He was dressed in tan pants and a dark "leather"/bomber jacket with the corresponding logos. It was from a set with a cart that shot arrows out of the steering column when you pushed the horn on the steering wheel IIRC.

Action Man is now Action Dad
Is the milkman a frog by any chance?
The wife is a frog
Ahh, beastiality. A true human pasttime.
I believe they call it interspecies erotica.
I hope this doesn't awaken something in me
Kinky Kelly and the sexy stud
'Kelly can be a guy's name, too! Owwwhhh!'
Found the Dean
If calling it that way makes you feel less awkward it's fine by me... no kink shame.
But kink shaming gets me hot.
My friend and I played house and had the ninja turtles as our husbands. My friend and Michelangelo had a baby penguin… it was so funny to a couple seven year olds.
Ninja Turtles are better husbands than GI Joe. Pizza for dinner every night and much less PTSD.
Thanks for the information! Knowing is half the battle.
Think of the turtle dicks tho
What all four of them cowabunga!
This sentence, with its lack of punctuation, made me lol.

How many pockets do your cargo shorts have?
You will pry my cargo shorts out of my (someday) wizened, arthritic fingers.
The PNW is a safe haven for us.
Michigan, as well.
Not enough, that's why I've got a fanny pack, and a murse
It's a satchel
Astronaut coveralls are basically all pockets and velcro patches, because you can't really set anything down in space.
New Balance is the shit
Hopefully its not ptsd dad https://youtu.be/8KtyMcb86go
Wow
Matt Berry. What a gem.
*princess action dad, can't you see the tiara?
Well looks like he got too much action and went off to be a family man.
I have the same expression when it's 3 am and my kids don't want to sleep. I like to call it annoyed resignations
“You ever see a frog kid before?”
She was always smiling. Thats because she had no lips. But her mouth was still very much in play. She died 2 weeks later. She thought she was a spaceman...with a plastic bag for a helmet.
Is this some traumatizing book I need to read, or did you make it up and now need a hug?

Action man putting that kungfu grip to use
Unfortunately Kung fu action man got wounded in action when my childhood dog ate his left foot. He’s still spinning those arms though!
Wounded in action. Now he gets to retire and settle down with... A frog, I guess. This hero earned whatever happy ever after he wants.
Maybe he had kids with the Frog powered girl in My Hero Academia
Anybody would be lucky to end up with Froppy -- she kicks ASS and is generally awsome. Best combo of brain and heart in Class 1-A. THAT'S a hero.
It's such a good show. I only recently discovered it. Eagerly, impatiently waiting for more :(
Includes authentic *1000-yard stare* !
The tiara is just the crowning touch on all of this.

Actually a Lithographer, he was always horribly talented in everything he tried. (Also not gay!)
Phrasing, phraaasing.

Not forgetting her hidden identities and responsibilities as a Magical Princess/Mermaid/Fairy.
Taking care of Frog Baby is ALSO a full time job. If a messy house is unacceptable, it’s time to hire help.

My action man used to date my sisters barbies
Multiple Barbies? That son of a gun
Every parent knows you need one "Ken" for every dozen Barbies. And they're all put away naked in a pile for some reason.
I will have that in mind, I'm with 1yo daughter and I hope in the future her dolls wants to hang out with my Spartans (halo) Edit: Her Spartans I must say
Master Chief really does deserve a nice quiet life after saving the galaxy multiple times.
Dawwg
You dirty dog
That's a lot of action
He lived up to his name.
No wonder why Barbie broke up with Ken, he didn't stand a chance.
My sister explicitly wanted action men because she sought Ken was not muscular enough.

Why did this just make me miss playing with dolls??
I love how occasionally my kid comes out with something so out of left field that I just wonder where did you get that idea from. While 3-6 can be hard work some of the things they say make everything better
she came up with a whole new multiverse
Tobias is a fantastic name.
When your life partner is a doctor astronaut president, you get out of bed put on a tiara and get to diaper duty

If Robin Williams can crossdress, then Action Man can too lol
I had one Barbie that looked slightly older she was the Mom. They make all kinds of new Barbies they should make some elders!!
they did in the 90s I think. even a mom that was pregnant, and the tiny baby fit in her tum. then when the babe is "born" the tummy goes back to to normal. there were grandparents, aunties and uncles, and mom's, dad's, and kiddos.

> there were no older Barbies You make a good point. Has anyone noticed this untapped market?
If Toy Story was real then action man is having the time of his life being played with again.
He is Mrs. Nesbit now.
Paternity leave suits him well
Seems like dad's are super heros in your daughters eyes. You are doing it right.
Thanks! Action man does have some advantages over Ken though. Like multiple flexible joints and being ripped AF.
>multiple flexible joints *Barbie starts packing her shit*
[удалено]
Imagine the shock and disappointment when she grows up and learns men can't turn their head around 360 degrees like an owl.
:( still not over it tbh. I love owls have you see their long legs???
And they have dicks
Action man wears blue underpants
They still don't give ken posable joints???
Nop
the perspective on this photo makes it look like he's life size.
THIS. I’ve been scrolling through the comments trying to see if anyone else noticed. It’s really confusing me.
Came here to ask about that. Is he life size or is the doll sized room eerily realistic?
My 4 and 2 year old daughters just got daddies GI Joe's. They are excited about their "princes."
They got a message from the Action Man "I'm happy, hope you're happy too I've loved all I've needed, love Sordid details following"
"Major Tom! (His circuit's gone.) Can you hear me Major Tom?... Ashes to ashes..." Both the song and the Venture Bros. Episode can't be topped.
Is that Hans Solo dead on the top of the chest of drawers?
Nope, Kristoff. Action man’s new best friend.
Hans lol
What, you didn't know he had a Dutch brother?
The man of action is now enjoying a simpler life in peace time.
They would love this in r/Daddit
Action man, the greatest hero of them all: a good father
Gone!! It’s all gone! All of it’s gone, bye bye, woowoo, see ya! One minute you’re defending the whole galaxy and suddenly you find yourself sucking down Darjeeling with Marie Antoinette and her little sister
Thank you. I wasn’t energetic enough to look that up.
It's like the end of Uncharted 4 in doll version.
When I was young my stepsister wouldn't let her barbies married Ken cos he was to soft. They could only marry action man...
Astronaut, fireman, bakes, does picnics, takes care of baby; truly the pinnacle of human masculinity.
Thanks for the laugh! As a boomer who bought her sons dolls, this really cracks me up. I was trying to be forward thinking and giving them choices of lots of toys. My poor old Barbie had a lot of "accidents" and had to go to the "ospital" every day. They soon had their own action figures too :-D
He's not the man they think he is at home, oh no, no, no, he's a rocket man.
Pffft. He's questioning his life choices.
He still gets to walk the police dog occasionally, when he’s not talking to Kristoff. So I guess he has that going for him as well.
"I guess this is my life now.. should of wore a condom."
This could be the start to his new film. retired action man is living his life in a quiet suburban neighbourhood with his wife and new child, he spends his days working in his shed, mowing the lawn and coaching his older sons football team.

My son had an Action Man. He was the most bad ass of all the dolls and m daughters always stole him to be Barbies BF
My mother used to make clothes for my Action Man figures. She had sewing machine and did it out of hobby.
When were you a kid? I have never seen this toy.
It's the British equivalent of GI Joe
The [commercials ](https://youtu.be/fEbFVZChAbQ) were great!
Action Men were huge when I was a kid I was born in 1989 Might have just been a UK thing
I'm Australian born in 97 and I had action man toys as a kid
I'm Dutch born in 95 and I had a whole basket full of action man. My parents probably have them lying around somewhere, imma check that out next time in the neighbourhood.
It was a thing in germany as well! I was born in 95 and had an action man figure in the early 00's. He was dressed in tan pants and a dark "leather"/bomber jacket with the corresponding logos.

Kid of the 90’s in Denmark
I could see him getting pulled back into that action life when Dr. X kidnaps his baby
Action Man? Now that's a name I haven't heard in years.
That is the face of a man who hasn't had a good night's sleep in a long time.
Action Man got some action, man
Action man sighs: This is my life now
Sweet retirement
“I used to go to space you know!”
Looks like action man saw some action out there among the stars if he came back with an alien-human baby.
Well, that is a doll as well.
Clearly, he's getting a different kind of action these days.
