  Barbie has worn many hats over the decades — fashion model, astronaut, veterinarian, presidential candidate, rock star, CEO, and occasionally all of them before lunch. But alongside the ever-changing careers and couture, Mattel also gave the Pink Plastic Princess something else through the years: unforgettable slogans.

  To commemorate the inauguration of President Donald Trump, this is an appropriate time to look at the fun figures inspired by the man himself. While some would disagree, many would say the man himself is a living doll.  There’s no denying he has inspired several dolls and figures   First is the Donald J. Trump 12” talking doll (center) which was released in 2004 while he was the star of the tv show, “The Apprentice.” This doll is a relatively life-like depiction of how Donald Trump looked while on the reality series and it says 17 phrases in his voice that were made popular on the show.  It is dressed in his typical navy blue suit with red tie   Next is the Trump troll doll (left) which was issued fairly recently, probably in 2023 or 2024. This troll is also dressed in Trump’s normal blue suit, white shirt and red tie and sports his flamboyant hair.  Most recently, Proud Patriots released a Trump elf (right) in September 2024. This elf is dressed all in r...
