Rocawear Barbies By Mattel
Everything Else By Gotty™ on July 9, 2009 at 9:38 am
There are those who like to do their Christmas shopping in July. Got that one niece (or maybe even a nephew) who’s just unbearably hard to shop for? Worry no more.
Just buy them a Rocawear Barbie.
The folks at Rocawear just sent over a collection of Mattel Barbie dolls inspired by Rocawear’s upcoming 10th-year anniversary. Although we don’t have complete details about the partnership between Mattel and Rocawear, we do have some cool photos of both male and female Barbie’s. As you can see, the dolls are freshly dipped in Rocawear apparel.
In the female dolls, I think I see traces of Beyonce, Foxy…but no traces of Amil? She’s always gettin’ the shaft.
At this point, I’m going to break away from my keyboard. I need to pray & make amends for any & all recent transgressions. The world is obviously nearing its end.

Its funny that you say Amil got “shafted”. Im almost certain she got “shafted” by Jay, Bleek, Beans, et al. before getting truely shafted by Jay. Or she only had one talent and it wasnt singing/rapping/throwing up on a track.
I could have a field day with this. Haven’t decided if I will yet. Y’all have fun in the meantime.
I think its cool for lil black girls to have black dolls. this takes advertising directly to the kids. Its kinda crazy but whatever makes the kids happy I suppose. Is Jay still with rocawear or did they just cash him all the way out and use the name. Im curious?
Nah, I’m teasing lol. I think the idea of the dolls is cool. The Rocawear brading on the dolls…enh lol. It’s a win for the brand I guess.
^ At first I thought was a bullshit move… but after seeing that Rocawear is co-branding this with the already establish Barbie/Mattel brand, this may not be such a bad idea.
On the real, years from now these joints might be some serious ($$$) collector’s items. If this idea crashes, they may instantly become “Limited Edition”. lol

I was SO gonna point that out but decided against it lol
They’ll make a Barbie for anything. I want the ‘Down Ass Bitch’ Barbie. I heard she comes equipped with half a pack of Ports, booty shorts and a crispy white tee, reversible bandana, stilettos and a shank.
Fisher-Price “My First Weave”
Wait til’ they unveil the “Best I Ever Had” Besty Wetsies.
Wow. What’s next? GI Joe’s rockin’ Ecko?
Limited edition Dame Dash version ended up getting scrapped is what I heard.
I like the light skin one
Beyonce Barbie, now comes with “Falls Down The Stage Steps & Gets Right Back Up Without Missing A Beat” Action
As a father of a little girl having “options” for dolls that look like her is a plus. I’ll get my baby what she wants….but spending money on a doll that has the same skin tone, same hair, same full lips, etc is alright with me.
The Jay-Z Ken Doll drops the mic, then holds it, then drops it, then holds it again to simulate his on-again, off-again retirement. Also comes with a toy bottle of Ace Of Spades.
