Things We Saw Today: These Wrinkle in Time Barbie Dolls Look Amazing

Mattel has unveiled a new line of Barbie dolls based on Mrs. Whatsit (Reese Witherspoon), Mrs. Which (Oprah Winfrey), and Mrs. Who (Mindy Kaling) from Ava DuVernay’s upcoming A Wrinkle in Time. The doll are available for preorder, but they come with the hefty price tag of $50 and a recommended age of “for the adult collector.” Still, they’re so cool-looking that it’s almost enough for me to take up collecting.
