As we reported last week thanks to John Henson, the tattoo on the Barbie version of Jacob Black is upside down! Word must have spread to Mattel and they have issued this statement in regards to the situation.
Twilight fans! As you may have heard, Mattel’s heartthrob Jacob doll’s iconic tribal tattoo is upside down on a portion of the total dolls produced. Mattel apologizes for the mistake in production and is working to rectify the situation. If you purchased a Jacob doll with an upside down tattoo and wish to replace your doll with an accurately represented tattoo, please call Mattel customer service at 1-800-524-8697 for more information or 1-800-491-7514 if you purchased your doll directly from Barbie Collector.
Of course, as one of our readers pointed out, it might be cool to keep the doll with the mistake as a collector’s item since we assume that Mattel will correct the mistake and all future dolls will have the correct tattoo.
