Expose this Barbie Doll to the roaring flame of a MAPP gas torch and watch as the frivolous plastic exterior and clothing melts and burns away, revealing the virtually indestructible stainless steel internal Terminator Doll.
(may require lots of scraping away of carbonised plastic and polishing to
totally shine up the previously hidden miniature cyborg)

A great way to show that girls can be strong on the
inside! |
|
|
I'd watch it burn, once. So a "sort a" bun. |
|
|
Go on, have another one. [+] |

My brother burnt my action man at the stake. He's funny like that. |

Envisions a 'Terminator vs. 6 Million Dollar Man'
miniseries. |

Better would be a soft plastic peelaway skin. Because little kids might catch on fire or get hot melted plastic on them, and that is no good. |
|
|
And if you are going to go that route Barbie might as well have skeleton, guts, innards. It would be ironic since exterior parts are not anatomically correct but you do what you can. |
|
|
Could the exterior be papier-mâché? This would be just as blowtorchable but without the toxic fumes. |
|
|
I think she needs to be made of a material that has stretchy, flexible properties to allow for proper limb movements etc. |
|
|
Also, wicked witch of the west bath bombs. |

(With Sigourney Weaver head replacement - First play French Revolution, and guillotine Marie Antoinette, then put on the other head for Alien. Tomorrow revive Marie for Zombie Inferno game.) |

It's probably no surprise that this type of toy has already been cashed-in on, albeit without the Barbie exterior. There was a Terminator toy which featured a flesh-coloured goo and a big plunger that let you injection-mold a new skin around the robot skeleton before tearing it off again. I've no idea what the relative inflammability of the goo / robot were. |

Taking the bungstonian approach further: the
innards-n-all Barbie could be a form of mass
produced Vaucanson-style automata which
replicates at least one human function as well as
the form, with that function operating not as
would be the norm for a typically-proportioned
human but as would be the norm for a person who
has a Barbie's proportions: a smaller lower torso
leading to a narrower and likely shorter intestinal
tract and colon, Barberian shits being, I'd hazard,
closer to 6 or 7 on the Bristol stool scale than the
average human would desire. This of
course sets aside the fact that Barbie's arsehole is
so out of proportion that it doesn't exist and
therefore any poo that was created by this
automata would collect beneath its frivolous
plastic exterior, adding a new dimension to the
act of burning off her skin. |

This idea was pretty well baked ca 1990 in a licenced toy
that let you mold pinkish flesh over a not-very-well
articulated plastic (simulated metal?) endoskeleton using
packs of oatmealish stuff disolved in water. |
|
|
Arguably irresponsibly for a toy targeting 8-12 YOs, once
dry, the pink stuff burned pretty energetically, as, alas, did
the crappy plastic endoskeleton. It also tended to tear off
after a few minutes of play handling, calling for another 30
min in its plastic "regenerator" vat. Not really a popular or
successful toy, but one my kid picked out of a Toys R Us
lineup. |
|
|
~1% of these could include a baby terminator in
barbie's womb. |
|
|
Make it a mystery as to what you get when you burn
her. |
|
|
~20% of them should burn to just dust. Showing,
that some people have really nothing inside. |
|
|
~10% should burn & reveal a man inside. |
