I hope they have hanboks as a clothing option, and of course, some Gucci for Tae.

Mattel better get BTS's facial features (esp. Tae's moles) right or ISTG lots of ARMYs are coming for them. Not me though, I'm more into BT21 merch 😅

Quick! Where's my wallet? Please take my money. Take my money now!!!

Ken who?! 😂

Seriously though, Mattell makes beautiful celebrity/historical figures dolls. So excited!

which outfit are they gonna use? I hope they do the hanbok from IDOL MV.

BTS's phenomenon is already spreading like wild fire!!!! BTS hwaiting!!!!

Wowwww..... BTS doll

😁

Brilliant!

Cool. The dolls better not be creepy and shit...Don't disappoint us Mattel.

Would rather it be funko pops, but I'm bias as I'm 36 and would rather collect that to any other alternative

This could go really well or hilariously bad - Mattel better do a good job I can think of so many ways this could go wrong

You know, I'll stick to THESE - BTS BJDs LOL

Wooohooo! *flashbacks to my childhood with a drawer FULL of Barbies*

My year is made!

no hate but...

although honestly imma ask for these for christmas n my birthday ngl

I had mix feelings about this because at least in the US, BTS is not household. They haven't had one single hit despite their accomplishments and that's because average music buyers are not buying them, Army is. When the masses like you, your song becomes a hit without it even being a plan or streaming for a count. It just happens because the music is liked. Mattel is a massive company so that means the dolls will likely be in many cities and states. I feared dolls just sitting on the shelves but after thinking about it, people have a natural curiosity. If someone sees the dolls and don't know who they are, they may look them up just like millions of Americans have done when they were are the AMA's and BB. That might actually gain them a few fans.

yayyyy This is greatl! Can't wait 💜

This is so cool! Can't wait to land my hand on this! 💜

"Under this multi-category license with BTS under its label, Big Hit Entertainment, Mattel will create dolls, collectible figures, games, and more. In the wake of sold out tours across the globe, the collaboration launches this summer with a first-ever BTS-inspired toy line created around the likenesses of the band's seven members: RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook. The dolls will be fashioned in the looks from the BTS' iconic and YouTube record-breaking "IDOL" music video."

they should of come out before Christmas, they would of been the hottest toy on sale, an no children can play with them lol

Whatttttt? 😆.

I wonder if Big Hit has ever considered the possibility that their product could lose it's appeal by overselling it? I don't know if there is a name for it but it does happen to celebrities, bands, television shows. You cast too broad a net, become too commercial and ruin the "authenticity" of the product. This group started out and has always maintained a more "organic" appeal, as though it' had come together and allowed to somewhat steer their own path. Now, Matel is going to immortalize them in plastic. I don't know, seems to me that we are veering into territory that will only hasten their demise as anything that resembles the "original".

The things that fans will do with those dolls...

Imagine how crazy the fans would get if the dolls were life-size?

I love Mattel and BTS but like, this is just. -face palms-

exoflop and druggie bang can never relate. Lmao
