Mattel is introducing new dolls featuring three different body types, seven different skin tones and nine different hairstyles, including the trendy man-bun. The dolls also boast cool fashions and styles for a new generation.
That’s right, the biggest news to come out of the announcement is that one of the Ken dolls will feature a man bun, because apparently people still wear man buns.
