The Queen has been immortalised in doll form as toy brand Mattel unveils a special Barbie to mark the monarch's Platinum Jubilee.

It features a tiara modelled on Queen Mary's fringe tiara, which the Queen wore on her own wedding day.

A pink ribbon imitates one given to the Queen by her father George VI, and a pale blue imitates one from her grandfather George V.

Presented in a box inspired by Buckingham Palace, the doll is among an array of memorabilia being released to honour Her Majesty's 70 years on the throne.

The limited-edition Barbie, which will be sold at Harrods, Hamley's, Selfridges, John Lewis and on Amazon, was revealed as the Queen celebrates her 96th birthday on Thursday.
