I took a trip over to Brooklyn's Phat Albert Warehouse in Lefferts Gardens a while back, and found a most hilarious collection of Defa Lucy Dolls. This brand of dolls has definitely become my favorite thing to look for in discount stores thanks to the guaranteed laugh inducing copy on the boxes. Engrish, I love you so. Let's get started.
First up - The Elegance Series
Effulgent bead in slap-up thread? Oh, I'm mad cuz she's stylin' on me.
And from the side?
Brilliance and sparkling notions! I suggest everybody much more open out their noblest and elegant which are always latent. Please. Show us what you're working with.
Defa Lucy is a great source of elegance. This time she's getting married.
I've seen Super Cool Gal before, but this time she's black, so I'm going to join in this team, as requested. We have to stick together.
In an epic battle of copycattery, Real Barbie has fashion fever with little hangers, and drawers that open.
And in this corner, Fashion Girl with her swagger jack packaging has new fashion styls.
and a fashion neckcloth.
Keffiyeh's are what all thegay cool mormon hipster transplants to nyc are wearing these days, so this round goes to Fashion Girl. Barbie, consider yourself pwned.
This Defa Lucy appears to be some sort of flower garden variety. Let's check out what her box has to say:
well, in my opinionation, the sun is going to surely shine.
Here we have a pair of Black Russians.
Or, according to what the box says they're up to, they may be Icelandic. I remember reading a couple quotes from Björk a long time ago about how Icelandic people get drunk in the winter and scream at each other, and have sex in the snow between buildings. Sounds reallyromantic.
Check out Ballet Sheila, with her dulcet music.
She's all Zoe Saldana as Eva Rodriguez in the movie Center Stage, rolling with her vanilla crew of anorexics
Balletdancering of new century to the tunes of Michael Jackson and Jamiroquai.
See for yourself:
Oh, I'm wrong for that.

In all, I have to say that I was impressed by the racial sensitivity and care that was given in stocking these particular Defa Lucy dolls. Phat Albert's warehouse gets a thumbs up from me. Na na na, I totally had a good time.
