He-Man started out as an action figure from Mattel. Therefore, it makes sense that the company would create a new version of him and Teela in time for the Masters of the Universe movie that came out today.
So, they released Barbie versions of Camila Mendes and Nicholas Galitzine’s characters in the film, and they let the two actors play with themselves.
So what do the actors think of their plastic likeness? They loved even more than we do, and we are obsessed.
How good of a job did Mattel do? If it wasn’t for the height difference, I would not be able to tell them aapart.
Barbie knows what she is going to be doing this Summer. She and Ken are going to be drinking a lot of drinks at Dunkin’.
Why? Because the donut shop created eight pink drinks with her in mind:
Ultimate Pink Daydream Refresher: Pink Pineapple flavors with oatmilk, finished with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam for a smooth, creamy sip.
Double Strawberry Daydream Refresher: Strawberry Dragonfruit flavors blended with oatmilk and topped with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam for a double-berry twist.
Pink Mango Daydream Refresher: Mango Pineapple flavors mixed with oatmilk and finished with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam for a bright, fruity flavor.
Pink Cherry Daydream Refresher: Black Cherry flavors combined with oatmilk and layered with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam for a tart, creamy pairing.
Strawberry Cloud Matcha: Creamy sweetened Matcha with vanilla flavors and topped with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam.
Strawberries & Creme Cloud Dunkalatte: The creamy combination of espresso, coffee milk and vanilla flavors, topped with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam.
Almond Strawberry Shortcake Iced Coffee: Original Blend iced coffee paired with French vanilla and toasted almond flavors, topped with Barbie Pink Strawberry Cold Foam.
Pink Pineapple Refresher – a light pink iced beverage with bright notes of pineapple, raspberry, and hibiscus flavors. With a variety of bases (green tea, black tea, lemonade, oatmilk, protein milk or sparkling water), along with flavor combos and sweetness levels, guests can customize their Refresher to be as bold, bubbly, creamy, or tart as they like.
The United States Post Office and Mattel teamed up to create ten stamps in honor of Barbie and her careers.
Ethel Kessler, an art director for USPS, went through over 250 of her professions to pick her Top 10. To capture her spirit of fun, he chose bright, energetic shades.
The forever stamps will be released on July 11, during the 2026 National Barbie Doll Collectors Convention in Austin, TX.
I rarely use stamps, but I am going to buy a book of these. I just wish they dedicated one to Ken.
Barbie and Wonder Woman have been fictional inspirational women figures to girls all over the world. And now, those little girls can get their own Wonder Woman Barbie to play with in honor of her 85 years of being a heroine.
She is wearing her signature DC comic book red and blue star-spangled tank suit with her golden eagle chest plate, her emblem at the waist, a golden headpiece, red earrings, ‘Bullet-proof’ wrist cuffs, and knee-high red and white boots. And of course, she has the Lasso of Truth because she is not Wonder Woman without it.
The collectible Barbie is only available for a limited time, as supplies last. Don’t sleep on her because she will be gone before The Flash.
