Career traits featured in the first drop of the collection include artists, astronauts, CEOs, doctors, pet vets, pilots and more, reminding fans and collectors that they can be anything. 

The collection will feature a variety of rarities, unlocking perks and physical goods for collectors including virtual Career Conversations with role models, tickets to Barbie live events, doll gift sets and more. The official launch at Veecon is set for Thursday, May 18 at 9 a.m. 

Each pack will include four Boss Beauties x Barbie collectibles of different rarities, selected at random. Only those who make purchases during the early-access, limited-availability period will receive a surprise virtual collectible featuring an exclusive career trait. 

“As Barbie continues her journey in the metaverse, we are proud to partner with Boss Beauties to empower women and collectors to explore Web3 through our virtual collection,” says Lisa McKnight, executive vice president and global head, Barbie and dolls, Mattel. “Having exceeded 250 careers, it’s only natural for Barbie to dive deeper into digital collecting by highlighting some of her most-recognizable roles.
