Barbie has a long and famous line of careers. From being an astronaut to a chef, then a fashion icon to a princess-you can bet Barbie has done it all, or has she?
We're exaggerating of course, so one of the things that she hasn't done (there are plenty still) is be a Medieval knight or a.k.a. Brienne of Tarth of HBO's Game of Thrones series.
We've seen just how bad Brienne can kick people's ass (particularly men), so it's no surprise that a lot of women look up to her now.
This Barbie is part of the Kickstart campaign by Jim Rodda. For $200 you can get a pre-made order of the armor.
Asked what made him do this:
"Barbie has had many occupations over her long and storied career," Rodda wrote in the description of his Kickstarter. "Astronaut, veterinarian, pinup, and princess more times than I can count."
"She has not, to my knowledge, [dressed up as] as Brienne of Tarth until now," referring to a female knight in HBO's "Game of Thrones."
