INDIANAPOLIS (TEGNA) — Mattel has released a line of five new Barbie dolls to celebrate the sports joining the Olympics this year in Tokyo. New this year are surfing, skateboarding, sport climbing and karate. Softball is also coming back for the first time since 2008.

Each Barbie comes with its own Olympics coat and a gold medal.

The sport climbing Barbie is blonde, is wearing clothing you'd normally see from a competitive rock climber, and has a rope, harness and chalk bag.

Surfing Barbie is black with a pink top and comes with a surfboard.

Karate Barbie is blonde and wears a karate uniform, or gi, and has pink gloves and shoes.

The skateboarding Barbie has brown hair and comes with a pink helmet, wristpads and skateboard, and green knee pads.

The softball Barbie has brown hair, a pink hat and uniform and comes with a pink baseball bat.

The Hot Wheels Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 Mini Collection will have multiple models of cars celebrating not only the new sports but also some iconic ones. Images representing the sports are emblazoned on the sides of the cars, and the Tokyo 2020 Olympics logo is on the hood.
