Mad Men Barbies: Cocktails and Suburban Ennui Not Included

Mattel has come out with a new line of barbies based on our favorite characters on Mad Men.

For the first time since I was about 11 I am craving a doll. According to The New York Times...
For the sake of the Barbie image, her immersion in the “Mad Men” era will go only so far: The dolls come with period accessories like hats, overcoats, pearls and padded undergarments, but no cigarettes, ashtrays, martini glasses or cocktail shakers.

I am saving up my allowance to buy me a Joan and a Roger.
