Default big improvement to the ky derby

from bris:

Churchill Downs and toy company Mattel have teamed up to create the Kentucky Derby Barbie doll. The iconic doll will showcase legendary Derby fashion, dressed in a floral sun dress, faux pearl necklace and spring sandals. True to Derby fashion, the doll's look will be topped off with a stylish, oversized white hat with blossoming flower accents. Churchill and Mattel are also giving Barbie enthusiasts and collectors to own a life-sized Kentucky Derby Barbie replica hat.

Do they really think that's going to outsell a Justin Dew action figure?

Easily, I hear the Justin Dew action figures are counterfeits from China, thus they aren't the real Justin Dew dolls.

Does the Justin Dew action figure come with the kung fu grip or the playful floral sun dress? I can't remember...
