Marilyn Monroe Barbies by Mattel between 1997

EBetween 1997 and 2009 Mattel issued six different Marilyn Monroe Barbies. Some of the dolls are representing the Hollywood Star as herself, others are representing her famous film characters.

The first Marilyn Monroe Edition appeared in 1997 and included three dolls. The dolls shows her in from „The Seven Year Itch“, and „Gentlemen Prefer Blondes“. Mattel produced them with Superstar Facemolds and designed them look to likeness with her film characters.

Mattels writes about the 2002 Doll that „the face is delicately sculpted“. No informations about the 2001 doll, but the faces seems to be the same. The last Marilyn (2009) got the Open Mackie / Aphrodite Face.

Sadly we miss pictures of the 2001 and 2002 dolls.
