Ken, sporting corduroy and a goatee? A four-inch high Scooby-Doo, who accompanies this strange amalgamation of manhood, would put it best: "Ruh-roh!" If we’re truly to believe that Barbie’s preppy beau is actually the beatnik Shaggy from the cartoon hit, we’ll have to accept his clashing lime green t-shirt, brick-red cords and gray hiking boots as a sign of the times--the 1970s. Mattel has tried as hard as they could, but Ken just doesn’t pull off the unkempt-cowardly-geek look: his hair won’t frazzle, he’s still buff underneath those awful clothes, and the goatee only makes him look like Kurt Cobain. Still, Mattel gets marks for nostalgia’s sake. --Diane Beall ... Read more

Best Ever!!!!!!
I love this Shaggy and scooby doo doll! I fell in love with it the moment I got it. Me and my little brothe played with it for hours. We used our sisters barbie dolls and ken dolls for daphnie,velma and fred. If I never got this doll I would be having a temper fit in my room.

Scoobariffic!!!
My 4 year old loves The Scooby Doo movie and when I saw this item on sale I bought it and the Thelma doll.It looks good and has held up to her playing with it.My only complaint is that the shoes are way to big and fall off(but how many children keep up w/Barbie shoes anyway?).Over all I think that this doll is an excellent buy.

Shaggy Broke the first week
It's good because he's posable but my two year old ripped his legs apart way to easily ... Read more

Even though Barbie would never let Ken wear an orange neck kerchief, it’s not hard to pass him off as "Fred," hippy leader of the Scooby Doo gang. Fred and Ken actually have a lot in common: Note the blond hair, broad shoulders, sparkling blue eyes, and Colgate smile. Physical likenesses aside, however, these two dudes have definite philosophical differences: Ken drives a gas-guzzling Corvette as a status symbol, for example, and Fred drives a gas-guzzling VW van as a peace symbol. But to make Ken into a completely believable Fred, he is accompanied by a velveteen version of Scooby-Doo, complete with a tiny box of Scooby Snacks.--Diane Beall ... Read more

While Barbie dances the lead in Swan Lake, Ken is there as always to support his friend. Here is the good looking and good-natured Ken as Prince Daniel, wearing a gray glittery smock with puffy white sleeves, silvery pants, and black boots. His blond hair is topped off with a silvery plastic crown and across his face is a warm smile. To lend more set dressing to this imaginary production of Swan Lake, Ken is accompanied by an actual swan. The swan features gauzy netting and matches up well with Ken as well as Barbie herself (sold separately). Ken is impressively articulated and can be arranged in a number of poses. --Charlie Williams ... Read more

This is a great Ken doll!
My daughter has both the AA and white version of this Ken. The AA is a much better doll than the white. His face has a more interesting sculpt(he has character) and his hair is more realistic than the white version's stiff, glued, blonde mess. Of course it's not exactlly educational, but what Barbie is? The doll itself is of great quality, but the clothing is flimsy, it's not ment to be taken on and off again and again. All in all this is a great buy! I got one for myself just because I think it's one of the better looking Kens that have come out in recent years. ... Read more
