Good to know...

From Doll Genie----- Mattel is poised to release a Katniss Everdeen Barbie Doll from the popular series later this year which will be introduced by Barbie Collector, a division of Mattel which features Barbie dolls dating back to the 1980s. While the release has been met with some skepticism as to whether the brutal elements of the Hunger Games trilogy fits with the Barbie brand, Mattel says the doll will be aimed at the adult collector. The exact release date has yet to be revealed, and its not known if the doll will be available before the first Hunger Games movie premieres on March 23. Rumor has it the release will be in April 2012 and product code is W3320 - details will be posted as we get them.

Stardoll is NOT considered Barbie Collector dolls and are not marketed the same as current BC products.
BarbieCollector.com carries then because they think they are cool and a collectible item.
