Prince William and Kate Middleton Barbies?!

Prince Charles and Kate Middleton

Mattel Inc. has announced plans for yet another royal pain in the ass, Prince William and Kate Middleton dolls to be sold this April in a duo set. The newest additions to the Barbie Collector Series will come fully dressed in their appropriate wedding attire even down to the tiny tiara atop Middleton’s head. Pre-orders are already rolling in, and with a price tag of a hundred bucks this is definitely a moment for non-doll collectors to pull out their barf bags. As if the commemorative plates, coins, replicas and all the other miscellaneous oddities weren’t bad enough, now there’s a Barbie to celebrate … what exactly? Overkill? Someone else’s wedding? Right, really good choice Mattel!
