Barbie’s Big! She Has Her Own Convention
Friday, September 28th, 2007Barbie is big – there is no doubt about it. As a matter of fact, she is so big that she has her own fan club, and membership is strictly limited! Yet did you know that she is so big, that she even hosts her own convention? It is true! Mattel – who has long since realized that it is not little girl that are buttering its bred, but instead affluent and avid doll collectors – hosts annual Barbie conventions that cater specifically to this group of Barbie aficionados.
Therefore, the Barbie convention is a very carefully planned and executed event, and very little is left to chance. At the same time, special care is taken that first time attendees will understand what they will be getting themselves into, so that they will not be overwhelmed, since this is rather easy to do. Similarly, novices will need to know to come equipped with plastic, checkbook, or cash, as there will definitely bargains to be had for any serious collector.
