The Barbie Twilight Dolls – About The Edward and Bella Dolls
Saturday, July 10th, 2010Twilight Barbie dolls are proving to be all the rage with fans of the Twilight novels by Stephenie Meyer and the many fans of the movie adaptations. The thought of movie and television connected Barbie dolls is not a new one, with the X-Files and The Lord Of The Rings for example having official Barbie dolls created of their well-known characters, and there have been others besides those too.
At this time, with the introduction of 2 Barbie style dolls based on the well-known couple from Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn (as well as Midnight Sun, the alternate version of the ‘Twilight’ novel), fans are able to add 2 more versions of their favourite human and vampire couple to their shelves.
Collectors could want to keep these Twilight Barbie dolls in their movie-themed boxes, however the actual pleasure of the dolls is taking them out, posing them and enjoying them to their utmost rather than leaving them by them selves in their packaging. Each of the dolls arrives dressed in a great material costume closely based on the apparel used on the characters in the films, and they appear nice, however some devotees could want to flag up the issue of how much they give the impression of being just like the actors themselves.
While both the Edward Cullen and Bella Swan Barbie dolls have faces that have been altered from the usual Barbie and Ken moulds, they do not resemble the celebrities too much. Thankfully, with the hair and the costumes, they give the impression of being spot on, however their facial features come across as a bit too stylized to look simply like the film stars they’re based upon.
Having said that, these Twilight Barbie Dolls are bound to make any enthusiast of the saga sparkle with joy, and they provide one thing a touch more glamorous than simply action figures. The Twilight Barbie Dolls, while not perfect, are a pretty good idea for fans of Twilight this Christmas.
