From the Manufacturer
"Job Switching, episode 39, originally broadcast on September 15, 1952 during I Love Lucy's second season. Today, this wacky story remains a favorite and is re-created in this delightful giftset. Both dolls wear pink dress coats, pink baker's hats, and pink heels. Check out the face sculpts — each doll looks as though their faces are ""stuffed"" with chocolates! Rooted eyelashes and fantastic face paint provide the finishing touches. I LOVE LUCY and related marks are trademarks of CBS Broadcasting Inc. © 2006 CBS Broadcasting Inc. All rights reserved.

Customer Reviews

Fun with Lucy
This doll set is in the Pink Label Barbie Collection. Lucy and Ethel are wearing matching pink uniforms with hats and Lucy has pearl earrings and necklace. They have their cheeks bulging with chocolates. They have wide open eyes with hair (not painted on) eyelashes. They are holding squares of paper with a cardboard "chocolate" in their right hands. These are probably removeable since they don't show in the pictures on the website. Lucy says, "Ethel, I think we're fighting a losing game!" in a clip from the show. The doll may say more but I have not opened it to see and the box does not say.
This is a cute set for any Barbie collector or lover of I Love Lucy.

Mom's Birthday
I am a little bit after the era of this show, but many are the fond memories of my mother and I watching it together. She always related to Lucy... which even if it's a little frightening , provided a lot of childhood entertainment. I got her this for her birthday this year, and she really loved these dolls. They are beautiful!

Perfect for I Love Lucy fans :]
I was so excited when I received the package with the Lucy and Ethel dolls. :] At first I was unsure to buy it because the pictures make them look like they're just puckering their lips, but no :D. They look really good in person! The doll looks just like Lucy with her face and the hair and Ethel looks kinda like the real Ethel (or Vivian Vance).

One thing that disappointed me a bit was the little chocolates.. I thought they were going to be like little plastic or rubber mounds, but they're just cardboard paper :[.. Oh well I'm probably not going to open the box anyways ;D

Overall, if you're obsessed with the I Love Lucy show (like me), this is something you should really buy!

And it's a great buy because it's like 2 for the price of 1 :]
