Kim Goodwin’s custom Marilyn dolls

I wasn’t really into collecting Marilyn dolls, although I do have 3 Mattel dolls. A few years ago I came across a very talented make up artist named Kim Goodwin. He does the make up of Sharon Stone, Elizabeth Taylor and some more great stars.
He is also very gifted in transforming Franklin Mint vinyl dolls into more perfect Marilyn Monroe dolls.

I was trying to see if I could get into contact with mister Goodwin because I think it would be really interesting to interview him for the website about his love for Marilyn and his dolls. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a way to contact him. If anyone else does know a way, please let me know!

If you click ‘Read more’ you will find images of the dolls Kim Goodwin made and also a video of the dolls.
