Ever since Greta Gerwig's Barbie hit cinemas back in July last year - there's been a whole load of Barbie-mania and it doesn't seem to be going away anywhere soon.
Fans will be beyond buzzing to find out that toy company Mattel will be opening a brand-new adventure park which will include the iconic Barbie Beach House.
The Mattel Adventure Park will be located in Glendale, Arizona, at the VAI Resort and is scheduled to open its doors to punters later this year.
The indoor/outdoor theme park will feature some of the brand's most iconic toy lines at the very forefront with visitors able to galavant inside a life-size Barbie Beach House that'll be sure to make you feel like you've been transported to Barbie Land.

According to Mattel's official website, the full-scale Barbie Beach House will give fans 'a closer look inside Barbie’s iconic closet in the Barbie Dream Closet Experience'.
This uses hologram technology to bring Barbie to life before guests' eyes.
"The attraction also includes a rooftop bar and restaurant that hosts expansive views of the property," the website adds.

And, if Barbie isn't your thing then you can check out the two fully themed Hot Wheels rollercoasters - Hot Wheels Bone Shaker™: The Ultimate Ride and the Hot Wheels Twin Mill™ Racer.
Mattel states: "Designed to delight kids and adults of all ages, the Hot Wheels Bone Shaker themed ride will be the first-ever family coaster to feature the famous hot rod’s skull design that climbs 84 feet in the air, while the double-looping Hot Wheels Twin Mill Racer guarantees a serious adrenaline boost for guests seeking an even higher-octane experience.
