In honor of the debut of Barbie® The X-Files™ Agent Fox Mulder Doll and Barbie® The X-Files™ Agent Dana Scully Doll, Barbie® Signature is taking you behind the scenes! See what went into creating the dolls made to celebrate the 25th anniversary of one the most successful television dramas of all time.

To faithfully reproduce the signature looks of FBI special agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, the Barbie® Signature team got to study actual costumes used in the hit sci-fi series. Principal Designer Bill Greening and Softgoods Design Manager Carolina Cadena worked together to create the doll-sized versions of their dark suits.

Of course, their wardrobe wouldn't be complete without accessories! Development Project Manager Ashley Chan worked with Bill to review all the small parts for accuracy, including their shoes, badges, government IDs, and more.

Unlike our 1998 The X-Files™ Giftset, which featured Barbie® and Ken® in the roles of FBI special agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, the new giftset features dolls with faces sculpted to the likeness of the actors. Barbie® Signature Project Sculptor Ray Cavalluzzi used a variety of reference photos to develop digital models for the face sculpts.

To make an actor look camera-ready for television, hair and makeup are key, and THE X-FILES is no exception. Luckily, the Barbie® Signature team knows a lot about hair and makeup, too! Project Lead Shirley Fujisaki (Hair Designer) and Project Designer Alexandra Stoyan-Lopez (Face Design) also relied on an array of reference material to make sure the dolls' hair rooting and styling, and detailed face painting brought the characters to life.

When you order Barbie® The X-Files™ Agent Fox Mulder Doll and Barbie® The X-Files™ Agent Dana Scully Doll, the dolls arrive packed in specially designed doll boxes. Before that happens, the Barbie® Signature team not only has to design the packaging, they also have to pack sample dolls to make sure they look great inside the box. Below, Senior Packaging Engineer Kambiz Betaharon gets the dolls ready for our internal review, and Project Designer Tyler Russell presents the digital and real-life versions of the boxed dolls to the team.

And that's how you celebrate the 25th anniversary of the influential series that went from breakout sci-fi favorite to massive global hit! Celebrate this pop culture touchstone with us, and get your Barbie® The X-Files™ Agent Fox Mulder Doll and Barbie® The X-Files™ Agent Dana Scully Doll in our shop now!
