Olympics: Barbie now an Olympic fan

By SUZANNE McFADDEN

What next? Now you can have your very own Barbie doll dressed in your Olympic team's colours.

Olympic Fan Barbie has hit the shelves in Australia, dressed in the tracksuits of teams from around the globe.

You can also get Barbie's cousin, Paralympic Champion Becky, who comes complete with wheelchair, crash helmet and hairbrush - in case of "helmet hair."

Becky has one over Barbie though - she gets to wear a gold medal, while Barbie has to settle for silver.
