Twilight Barbies Hit Store Shelves

Robert Pattinson in your pocket.
If you've ever wanted your very own Edward Cullen, one you could squeeze and talk to and give little kisses, now's your chance. From Mattel, the maker of Barbie and Ken Dolls, comes Twilight Barbies: Edward and Bella.

Modeled after the two characters during the forest scene in the first Twilight movie, the Edward and Bella dolls look like some very pale friends of Barbie. Robert Pattinson even has his trademark tousled bouffant in the little plastic version of himself.

The dolls, which run about $25 apiece, officially go on sale today through online retailers like Walmart, Amazon and Barbiecollecter.com.

So with Christmas just around the corner, and New Moon opening in a few weeks, we're guessing Bella and her undead companion will be hot items on gift lists this year. Maybe they can make a Tickle-Me-Edward for the really little ones.

So if you're a die hard Twilighter and want to have your own piece of the vampire pie, be sure to grab an Edward or Bella doll. Of course, whether you decide to cuddle with it or prick it with needles is totally up to you.
