This review is from: Barbie Platinum Label - "I Love Lucy" Santa Fred Mertz Collector's Doll - Only 999 made! (Toy)

I collect I Love Lucy/Lucille Ball items; mostly Mattel dolls, Franklin Mint dolls, books, and the DVDs of the shows she was in. Somehow I missed the Fred Mertz Christmas doll; maybe it was because my daughter got married in 2009, the year Fred's doll was released. I kinda went a little crazy when I realized just last month that it was out. So I went looking for it(and the doll REALLY looks like Fred Mertz). Amazon seemed to have the best price on it in a perfect box; Christmas tree decorations in the background like the other three. (My husband collects toy trains; I KNOW how important the boxes can be). I'm very happy with what I received; now I have the collection of all four characters in the Santa suit and it makes me smile every time I walk by the shelf on which they stand. Prompt delivery and pristine condition. Pricey, perhaps. But some things are worth it if you want it bad enough. My guilty pleasure!
