barbie_dolls_edward_collen_bellaNew Barbies are being released to capitalize on the commercial success of Twilight. To represent Edward, Ken’s usual tan is gone and has been replaced with a sparkling pallor. Somehow they even managed to give him a slightly tortured expression. To represent Bella they made Barbie a brunette and gave her a hoodie. I don’t think Barbie reacted well to being told she had to be klutzy so she is poised with model-like grace (check out her feet). What will be their next gimmick? Will they make a Jacob doll that can morph into a wolf? I don’t think that there has ever been a Barbie love triangle before. What are your thoughts on this new development in the Twilight franchise? Do these toys seem desirable in any way?
