Mattel Introduces Star Wars Barbies, Including Barbie Vader
When you hold on to one of the most popular licenses in the world, you tend to look for other licenses to combine it with. While there have always been Star Was lunch boxes, blankets, and of course toys, there has yet to be an official Barbie draped in the story from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. That is, until today, when Mattel introduced the most fashionable Sith out there.
The new set of three Barbies have been added to Mattel's website. Purchasers can get a R2-D2 Barbie doll, a Darth Vader doll, and a princess Leia doll. If you want any of them, you're going to have to pay a premium price, as each doll goes for a hundred dollars.
The full set will be released in November, but you can pick your favorite or drop a small fortune on all three now.
