Mattel has launched, in collaboration with the dancer Sara Baras, a new edition of the doll Barbie to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Barbie's arrival in Spain. In addition, for each unit of Barbie Spain sold one euro will be donated to SOS Children's Villages Spain an association that has been working for the welfare of the neediest children for years.
The doll has a wardrobe of flamenco inspiration with ruffles and polka dots and includes a special tribute to the dancer from Cádiz on the back of the box, which invites you to learn more about Sara Baras.
And there is more because Sara Baras will also have her Barbie herself in the image and likeness hers.
Although in this case it is a valuable collector's item of which only two units will be produced worldwide and will be launched after the summer holidays 2013. In Mattel they are very excited about the collaboration and this has been said by Elvira Sanjurjo, marketing director of Mattel Iberia. Elvira believes that Sara represents values such as effort and passion for work and also transmits a very positive message to girls: "Everything is possible when you believe in yourself and fight for what you want."
The price of the doll is 25 dollars (less than 25 euros) and you can see many models and designs on this web page dedicated to Barbie and her collections. Of course, the current design is much nicer than this of the first edition. Surely for collectors, Barbie lovers and fans of Spain is a model that surely brings many attractions.
And, although it has nothing to do with the objective of the article, this Barbie model, also inspired by Spain, has seemed spectacular. I have obtained this final information on the Internet looking for references to the Barbie inspired by Sara Baras. A page that has led me to many references is this MissGarabatos that is happy with its acquisition in El Corte Inglés.
