X-Files Barbie dolls are helping fans commemorate 25 years of finding the truth

Just in time for the 25th anniversary of The X-Files, Mattel is bringing fans new Barbie dolls dressed like Mulder and Scully.

The truth is out there, and it comes to us in the form of Barbie and Ken dolls. In honor of the X-Files‘ 25th anniversary, Mattel has decided to release new dolls dressed up like our favorite science-fiction detectives, Dana Scully and Fox Mulder.

As fans of the X-Files, you will definitely be able to see the resemblance between the Barbie dolls and much younger versions of Scully and Mulder. In fact, the dolls look a lot like the characters did back in 1993 when the series debuted. And on top of their picture-perfect outfits, they even have their FBI badges, both clipped to their jackets and at the ready in their hands.

Basically, these are Barbie dolls that scream Mulder and Scully in every way, right down to the smallest details (just look at that hair and tell me this isn’t classic X-Files).

And according to Entertainment Weekly, it seems like there are a number of other ways Fox is celebrating 25 years of finding the truth. This includes testing your knowledge of all things X-Files.

Until Sept. 3, if you head to Fox’s online shop, you can submit questions for their “The Truth is Out There Trivia Contest.” Then on September 10, the contest itself will begin, with fans being able to answer as many questions as possible. The trivia contest is set to run until Sept. 17.

Participants of the contest who answer the most questions correctly will be entered into a drawing for an X-Files prize pack. And part of that prize pack is the new anniversary Mulder and Scully Barbie dolls.

On top of the new Barbie dolls (which cost $49.95 each), there are also other anniversary items available. Not only is there a 25th-anniversary poster available, but there will even be a tie-in comic book, a deck building game called Legendary Encounters, and of course T-shirts and other merchandise one might expect to find.

For X-Files fans, this is a chance to have your very own Fox Mulder watching over you, or a Dana Scully at your back. Plus, the comics help continue the adventures from the series itself, which recently concluded its 11th and likely final season.

We may not be getting more seasons of the X-Files revival, but at least Fox is honoring the 25th anniversary of the series in a big way. From the Scully and Mulder Barbie dolls to the new comics, there is still a lot to look forward to when it comes to one of our favorite science-fiction series ever.
