I love him. I think he & all the BMR1959 dolls are giving early 90s hip-hop (would explain the oversized coat), and I'm here for it. His lip gloss and nailpolish are icing on the cake. Perfection - Kada 🤩💚
I like his clothes and his look generally, but some of the other dolls in the line I am less sure of. I definitely get the whole 90s street wear vibe from them though. I wasn't collecting dolls when this line came out so I don't know if there was any controversy over this Ken doll at all, but I am totally here for him and so glad to have him in my collection!
Yes, I have another of the BMR Kens and they are really lovely dolls for sure. It's great when they make the effort with Ken, sadly it doesn't happen often.
Love your new hair colours!!! This BMR reminds me a bit of Sylvester when they had short hair, they have a very similar look make-up wise. I love that he/they're so different from the usual Kens. ✨🥰💚🤗✨ A few months ago I managed to get the man bun Ken BMR.
Thank you, I felt like a change. I love the fact that you mentioned Sylvester as I completely see that myself now - I wonder if they were the inspiration for this doll originally? I do have a second BMR Ken to unbox too, although it isn't the man bun one.
I love this doll so much. As soon as I found out they existed I nabbed them myself (a year after they came out - pun intended?). Congrats on adding them to your collection! ☺☺
Thank you. They are a fabulous doll for sure, love the hair and the face up and the fact that they gave them a manicure too. I got mine a few years after the line was released and was lucky enough to find them in a department store, they had a few so I could choose the best one too which is even better. They are perfect for my collection.
First - your hair is amazing - I LOVE the colors - just looks really good! :) And I have to say I do love Tango - they are one of the first BMR's I got and one of my first "Kens"...those BMR dolls were really nice. (I do HATE those tags with the fire of a million suns). 😀
I have a second BMR Ken who I haven't unboxed yet. I really liked Tango's clothes but this second BMR the clothes are imo just awful! (Thank you, I felt like a change with my hair so was trying to do a gradient colour, I think it worked okay but not sure I can repeat the magic a second time now!)
I was so lucky, I managed to find them being sold in a local department store a few years back so I could see them face to face. I'm really pleased to add them to my collection for sure.
He is so handsome! I regret so much that I didn't buy him when he was available for a decent price. I simply don't like his flat, flocked head. Love the color though! But the head looks so round 😬... I should have bought him regardless and give him a hoodie 😅 In general, I love the artwork from all of them! I liked the shoebox idea. To me, they have a huge art toy vibe because of that! It is sad that the line did not continue... BTW, great review! Like always 😁
I actually really like the flocked hair, think it reminds me of having Action Men toys when I was a child as they always had flocked hair too. I like the fact that they took to trouble to flock the BMR's head when - because it is basically a buzzcut - they could have just used plastic molding. I really like the shoebox packaging too and the artwork seems very cute - like you say it does give the dolls an art toy kind of feel about them.
@@MarchPaynesMidlifeDollyCrisis I agree. It is nicer than just plastic hair... maybe it is the combination of hair and pants for me. But restyling is always an option for me 😅 I will keep my eye open if I can get a good one on the 2nd hand market^^
I was really lucky, I found this one still being sold in a department store toy department, maybe two years ago, they had a few of him so I could choose the best one.

I love this guy. The BMR Boxes are where I keep doll clothing.
I LOVED the box that this doll came in, I could definitely see that the box would be useful for storage.
Yes I have them. I really love them. Adds a lot of diversity to my collection. They are diversity to my collection.
Such a great doll and so happy to have them in my collection.
I know what you mean. I find a lot of joy in my dolls. I can’t believe I let what others thought keep me away from that joy for so long.
🥰
He’s on my list of dolls to get.. This range of guys are so good

They are fabulous, so happy to add them to my collection.
I passed on him because he originally wasn't my cup of tea...but i regret it now 😞 cool you got him ❣️
