‘Barbie’: Where to buy Kate McKinnon’s Weird Barbie doll

Kate McKinnon’s Weird Barbie contains multitudes. To borrow a phrase from Barbie‘s marketing campaign: This Barbie’s been played with a little too hard. This Barbie can do the splits. This Barbie has crayon all over her face. But now, we can add another statement to the list: This Barbie is available for preorder.

That’s right: Mattel announced that Weird Barbie is getting a doll of her own. The doll is a fairly faithful recreation of McKinnon’s look in the film, complete with a pink dress, snakeskin boots, choppy blonde hair, and colorful scribblings all over her face. Who needs to make a Weird Barbie of your own when you could just buy a new, pre-weirded Barbie?

The Weird Barbie doll is available for preorder on Mattel’s official site for $50. Preorders last from Aug. 4 to Aug. 18, with the doll shipping on or before May 31, 2024.

Weird Barbie is only the latest piece of Barbie companion merch to hit the shelves. Mattel is selling Ken’s (Ryan Gosling) iconic tie-dye “I am Kenough” hoodie, while Impala recreated the bright yellow and pink inline skates Barbie (Margot Robbie) and Ken wear on their journey to the real world.

These items are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Barbie merch. From rugs to cosmetics to shoes, Barbie has birthed a plethora of brand collabs, all primed to cash in on the Barbiecore trend. With Mattel’s doll announcement, Weird Barbie is officially in the Barbie gift guide mix. Fingers crossed that Allan (Michael Cera) will make a comeback and get his own doll soon.
