We're making our way through the Malibus on the Terrific non-TV Toys series. A couple months ago, you saw the Malibu Barbie doll this author had as a child, one of my very first dolls. She is totally 1970s, and she was followed-up with a Malibu boyfriend, a Malibu friend, even a cousin and little sister. We're going to see most of those (all but the cousin) in this four-episode miniseries. So part 2 is the handsome young man (who is quite worse for wear, unfortunately) ...
An indulgence of great classic television by journalist and author Billie Rae Bates.

#SoMuchBatgirl!
... And so much other stuff, too! How much Batgirl is too much? There's never too much, right!? Just because it's Thursday and we're surviving the week, how about a glimpse of the new setup of Batgirls at BRBTV headquarters? This author is doing some tinkering around with video this morning, so how about two views on the "media" room ...
Go wide-screen if you can, and there may or may not be a special guest in the first one (we kinda had to include him; he was making a lot of noise).

Terrific non-TV Toys: Farrah Fawcett figure by Mego, 2018
The ever-iconic Farrah Fawcett is back on the BRBTV collectibles series. In episodes of Terrific TV Toys there were episodes of the 12-inch Mego doll of the 1970s, then the 9-inch Kenner "Charlie's Angels" figure, along with an array of wonderful fashions. The reboot of Mego released a modern Farrah figure a few years ago, and BRBTV secured that figure fairly recently. Now you can see it up-close and personal on the latest episode of Terrific non-TV Toys.
This figure is crafted in cooperation with the Farrah Fawcett Foundation, which we just had to look up. That's Farrah's longtime friend Alana Stewart, administering the foundation since Farrah has been gone, and you can snag yourself a T-shirt with this very-famous poster image, and learn more about what the foundation does.
