On Wednesday, Barbie Mattel announced that he had joined the LeBron James Family Foundation to provide a four -time NBA champion his own toy model. James is the first athlete to have his own rendition of the Ken doll.
“As a young child, I was lucky that I had patterns that not only inspired me, but also showed me what was possible because of hard work and determination. Now, as an adult, I understand how important it is for young people to have positive characters to watch,” James said.
“It is an opportunity to recognize the strong impact of patterns that install confidence, inspire dreams, and show children that they can also reach size.”
The star Lakers took part in the figure of the figure. James’ Doll, which costs 1 inch higher than the standard Ken doll, has its own clothes that greet his shoes Akron, Ohio, Roots and Nike.
