Barbie brand announces ‘Weird Barbie limited edition’ collectible

Mattel, the toy company synonymous with the iconic Barbie brand, introduces a collectible doll based on actress Kate McKinnon's character from Greta Gerwig's hit film, Barbie.

This distinct "Weird Barbie" exudes a quirky allure, donning a vibrant pink ensemble embellished with captivating artwork, puff sleeves, and striking green snakeskin boots. The doll flaunts unique facial markings and a slightly disheveled haircut, artfully mimicking a well-loved doll. Aligning with McKinnon's portrayal, this bendable doll demonstrates a full split and gracefully bends at unconventional angles.

Mattel's Instagram caption reads, "Time to get weird. Inspired by her look in @BarbieTheMovie, Weird #Barbie knows what it’s like to play just a liiiiittle too much! Pre-order your official movie doll by August 18, only at #MattelCreations. #BarbieTheMovie is now playing in theatres." This whimsical creation pays homage to the film's character dynamics while embracing the charm of an adored, albeit uniquely disheveled, toy.
