A Colchester toy store had a special visitor when Barbie dropped in for the day.
The blonde bombshell signed autographs and gave away yo-yos at Toymaster Kingdom in Culver Street West.
Youngsters who went to the store on Saturday could also enter a wordsearch competition to win some Barbie toys.
Store manager Michelle Thomson said crowds of youngsters had been to the store during the day.
Ooh, I'm, so excited - four-year-old Bethany Mason with Barbie at Toymaster store, Colchester.
