JK Rowling Barbie

In a continuing effort to shed its "air-head" image of their Barbie dolls, Mattel has created a series of one-of-a-kind Barbie dolls inspired by notable role models from around the world. 

Jk Rowling was among the women selected by Mattel,  next to Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria and  tennis champion Kim Clijsters.

This one-of-a-kind Barbie of Jo won't be for sale, but it was on exhibition in Mattel's showroom at the world's largest international toy fair in Nuremburg, Germany.

Her outfit was modeled after her real life outfit at the acceptance of the Legion of Honor Award in France back in February 2009.

Do you think the Barbie doll properly catches Jo's essence?

 

 

Personally I think she looks 100% more classier in real life.   

Spell of the day:

"Oppugno" - Causes conjured objects to attack!  Imagine casting this on the hundreds of Barbie dolls on display at the toy fair! I think JK Barbie can definitely KO Malibu Barbie's butt.
