The evolution of Ken's beard: first two gifs from a commercial for Sport & Shave Ken, 1979 (in which one of the dads shown in the ad exclaims "Nice beard, Ken!" while his daughter plays with Ken and Barbie), middle six gifs from a commercial for Shaving Fun Ken, 1995, and the last two gifs from a French commercial for Ken Shave 'n Style, 1999. No matter what iteration he appears in, Ken just can't seem to escape his beard.
