The new Misty Copeland Barbie doll just went on sale

Here's something sure to delight fans of all ages: The new Misty Copeland Barbie doll is now on sale.

Retailing for $29.95, the graceful representation of the first first African American female Principal Dancer with the prestigious American Ballet Theatre wears a fire red bodysuit, with sunburst orange tulle cutouts. A photo of her on thebarbiecollection.com shows her standing en pointe on one finely toned leg with an arm and the other leg raised behind her in a gravity-defying pose.

The doll can be purchased for $29.95 at www.thebarbiecollection.com. Until you can fly to New York and see Copeland in the flesh in an ABT performance, that's a pretty good stand-in.
