Barbie has pretty much been made to replicate every major (or at least any worthwhile) figure in the world and Australia is no exception. The newest members of the Barbie Basics Collection are Australian models Miranda Kerr (you may recognize her as the real-life Barbie featured on the Victoria’s Secret runway), Abbey Lee Kershaw, Elyse Taylor and Catherine McNeil.
These Aussie beauties have officially joined the ranks of Heidi Klum and Robert Pattinson through their addition to the Barbie Basics Collection and they’ve been immortalized as picture-perfect Barbies. I mean, it’s not like they’re not perfect already, right?
