A new Mattel series, entitled "Lucille Ball (First Ever)" will debut in November 2008. This new series will begin with Lucille Ball wearing a black evening dress. This series is not to be confused with the "I Love Lucy" Barbie Doll Series. This is a new series of Lucille ball dolls.
The doll will retail for $89.99 but probably can be found for less depending on the retailer and whether it is found online or elsewhere.
I hope this doesn't spell the end of the "I Love Lucy" Barbie Series as there are so many episodes left that would make great collectables. If it's not, then I'm going to have to start keeping track of two series and find more shelf space!
You can also buy it at Walmart for $39.99. Mine doesnt have any in stock yet, but they have the spot on the shelf for her. They said it will proably be in within the next month. I dont know about that timeframe but much better than $89.99 some websites are quoting. Also two other walmarts by me do not have a spot for her and said they did not think they were getting her, only the lucy/ethel combo set....so this might actually be a hard to find doll!
