Feast Your Eyes On The First Full Photos Of BTS' Mattel Dolls, ARMYs
The time has come, ARMY! The official photos of BTS’ Mattel dolls have finally been released and they’re just as amazing as you’d imagined! As you’ve probably already heard, Mattel is releasing their line of BTS dolls this summer and that means it’ll soon be time to drop your hard-earned money on all seven dolls. But you’ll probably want to check out the merchandise before you shove a fist full of money at Mattel. Thankfully, photos of the BTS x Mattel dolls are available for you to see!
In the photos, which were released by Mattel on Tuesday, March 26, you can see all the dolls wearing outfits from BTS’ incredible “Idol” music video. So, each BTS doll is absolutely popping with color and life. And that’s exactly what BTS is all about, right? It’s why so many people around the world love them and celebrate them as passionately as they do. When Mattel initially announced that they’d be releasing BTS dolls, they even shouted out how celebrated all the guys are!
“BTS is a pop-culture music phenomenon that transcends age, culture and language, and through this partnership, Mattel will offer a new way for millions across the world to engage with the band,” Mattel’s SVP & Global Brand GM for Mattel, Sejal Shah Miller said in in a Jan. 7 press release. “Partnering with established franchises that have global appeal is a cornerstone of our strategy and given our creative expertise, we are perfectly suited to create products celebrating BTS.”
Then, on March 18, Mattel shared a teaser photo of the dolls, which only elevated everyone’s anticipation even more. Here’s a look at that teaser photo:
