"Join Barbie in her cool new career, Video Game Developing!"
Saving 50% is a good deal if you're near a store, and this doll seems to be selling out judging by some of the jackal action on eBay.
It's refreshing to see that the usually bimby Barbie has a nerd girl side, too. :)
Shouldn't game developer Barbie come with just her clothing? All other accessories that make her cool needs to be bought via in app purchase? :)
They can keep the clothing…
Where is truck driver / FIFO miner barbie…?
Girls, for the most part, don't work hard jobs. They only take the -ahem- cream from society… This is objectively proven by history (and there's nothing wrong with that but let's not pretend otherwise and shit on the cogs of society -men- than make things happen).
Well at least they got the weird hair colour right
Agreed. The rest of the outfit looks like she's going camping or boarder line homeless.
Might actually get this.. which scares me a little..
You should tell barbie a stripper outfit is far more realistic than Game Developer outfit.
Your gonna end up whoring yourself out either way.
A stripper earns more money than a game dev though.
As a game developer: this is accurate.
Pretty cool. Just picked up one for my cousin who is studying game development. Admittedly, it will be the lamest present he has ever received, but for $10 I'm willing to wear that.
easy fix mate…just do this:
1. cut the hair short/add wax/clay
2. wrap barbie with bubble wrap to cover the girly bits
3. chuck on some loose fit jeans/pants
bonus points: add some fake mo stickers…
Aaaaannd…he hated it :(
Mainly he hated that I told him its his birthday AND Christmas present.
He should be happy. One less xmas gift to buy, now that he's got a Barbie to regift.
What young girl would want this???
An impressionable one with a feminist or PC parent.
Anita Sarkeesian
No one's procreating with that.
Haha well said, a feminazi parent might but even that would be a stretch
Its Barbie - they want it…
Unrealistic. Looks too happy.
Yeah let's see how she looks in 10 years
Whilst you all focus on gender let's not forget the statement made by barbie being made of plastic derived from oil. Big oil is primarily Middle Eastern and is misogynist. By buying this Doll you are supporting female suppression and funding terrorism.
That's ridiculous. are you saying people buying this doll funded for the Baghdad, Saudi Arabia, and Nigeria bombings yesterday and today?
I think the linkage is too far to form that conclusion. how sure are you the oil companies finding terrorism? don't terrorists bomb the oil pipes?
He's being facetious and doing a great job at it.
Wow that's a bow and a half! I thought shale oil was the big oil reserves nowdays - with the U.S. holding the biggest reserves, omg that means we support Trump!!!
Exactly, Trump is behind it.
The middle east deliberately flushed the price on oil well oil to almost 0 to send the shale oil companies broke, it has mostly worked too, Canada is in trouble.
Coloured hair and problem glasses. She certainly fits the bill for some indie game developers…
Can only see sadness for this career choice.
For a start, she'll be the only female there, and all the men in the office will have bigger breasts than her..
The Australian game industry is also in a pretty sad state
For real? I can't even find a vacant pokies machine anywhere…
fart.
What kind of fart though? The noise of the machines and the general hubbub of the typical club or pub will mean that the sonorous fart may have little effect in keeping punters at bay. Better to engineer the foul-smelling fart by eating foods rich in sulphur: meat, eggs and cauliflower and other cruciferous vegetables. If he is lactose intolerant, a malodorous series of emissions can be achieved by consumption of dairy.

Half of me is cringing and the other half is giving a sincere thank you to Mattel for getting some STEM on!
Needs to be fatter.
With bad skin. And social phobia.
Ken be like "why is she out of the kitchen"
It would appear that this going half price indicates girls just aren't as interested in becoming game developers as fairy princesses.
Call it Hex from GG, charge double = guaranteed sellout.
Hex = hottest babe on TV … <sigh>
Have they released the optional 5 Ken-doll pack yet?
Optional accessories are cosplay/Comicon outfits. As well as couch potato Xbox Ken.
And here II used to think that programmers have their own private offices.
My dreams are crushed
