AT AUCTION: ANOTHER AMAZING THERIAULT’S EVENT

Posted on April 15, 2026 by starlightdelightfully80f498b3bd

Where do they find these things?

I’ve selected a very few from the 350 lots that are available. I’ve primarily selected KEN items of course, although I will start off with something I am guessing is probably all Barbie…maybe they’ll post some inside images in the catalogue so we can find out if #1 KEN is there, fingers crossed.

The opening info says “prototypes” and here’s a winner, especially if you are an ALLAN fan!

Maybe your just starting out your KEN collecting, here’s to a great helping hand.

Or something fairly rare in such a complete way, from Vintage KEN’S later years. Ya Ya Ya!

Still riding the very edge of Vintage KEN, the first one with rooted hair. Personally I’d unbox him! But…

One of my very favourite BARBIE’S. A very early ponytail, but cast in transparent plastic. Totally fascinating! Where’s KEN?

All sorts of accessories are available too. The car, the boat, and many of the fine pieces of real estate. (It may say BARBIE, BUT she can let KEN in on them too.

And last on my tiny preview, but certainly not the least, KEN as THE PRINCE, in a dressed box version…oh my beating heart…

Totally worth taking a click, and maybe…

VINTAGE KEN HEADS

FROM FASHION DOLL QUARTERLY 2011

So interesting. I’ve wanted to see the contents of this “vault”, mentioned below, for many years. Wouldn’t it be great to see a Mattel Ken Archive show with loads more of the models, samples and background info, or at least as part of a Barbie show…wishful thinking!
