Elvis And Priscilla Presley Join Barbie Doll Family

August 14, 2008

A new range of Elvis and Priscilla Presley Barbie Dolls have gone on sale in America.

The iconic figures, which cost $65 each, went on sale yesterday (August 13th) at the souvenir shop in Graceland.

The dolls, which have been endorsed by Elvis' estate, are dressed in replicas of the outfits the pair wore to their wedding in Las Vegas in 1967.

Approximately 150 Elvis fans queued overnight to be the first people to get their hands on the figures, with one describing the likeness as “good”.

Currently, the dolls are only available in limited edition numbers - but will go on wider sale later this year.
