Prince William, Kate get dolled up
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are getting the royal treatment from Mattel.
The toy company will be releasing Prince William and Kate Middleton dolls on April 7, marking the couple's first wedding anniversary, InStyle reported.
The limited-edition dolls will be wearing replicas of what the couple wore on their big day last year -- a miniature version of the infamous Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen gown for Middleton, and a red-and-blue military jacket for Prince William. Middleton's doll will even include a tiny sapphire engagement ring and a version of the Cartier tiara she wore. This isn't the first time Middleton's been shrunk down to doll-size.
Last year, the Franklin Mint unveiled a limited-edition, collector's item in her honour, the Kate Middleton royal engagement doll.
Before the dolls hit stores, they're available for pre-order on barbiecollector.com for $100 per pair.
