Gorgeous and curvy as hell.
Now this, on the left, is the Barbie they're making based upon Joan Holloway.

Notice a difference between the two?
All Barbies are impossibly skinny and horribly disproportioned, but really, they're going to make a voluptious woman into that?? Disgusting. I know it's just a "toy", but if you're going to base it upon a real person, at least make an effort to come close to that real person's real body type. I could go on and on about how Barbies are, in some ways, terrible by misrepresenting women to little girls, and giving them body complexes, and blah blah blah. But the crux of it is this: the world won't end if you produce a single Barbie that looks like an actual woman.
