Mattel is making fans of Kate McKinnon’s Weird Barbie character from Greta Gerwig’s global juggernaut, “Barbie,” a real doll.
The company announced Friday that they are opening preorders for their own take on the Weird Barbie doll. The doll comes complete with crayon markings on her face, like McKinnon has in the movie; a funky haircut and green snakeskin boots. Also like McKinnon’s character, who enjoyed being in splits all the time, Mattel’s version is fully articulated with the ability to pose the doll however you want.
In “Barbie,” Weird Barbie is the outcast of Barbieland.
