Ty Inc. Releases Sasha & Malia Dolls

There are two new Beanie Babies: "Sweet Sasha" and "Marvelous Malia."

But Ty Inc. spokeswoman Tania Lundeen insists the 12-inch dolls are not named after the first daughters. They picked the monikers because "they are beautiful names," Lundeen tells The Associated Press.

The Sasha doll features pigtails and wears a white and pink dress with hearts; the Malia doll has a side ponytail and a long-sleeve shirt with capri pants.

"There's nothing on the dolls that refers to the Obama girls," says Lundeen. "It would not be fair to say they are exact replications of these girls. They are not."

The dolls -- which are part of the company's "TyGirlz Collection" -- were introduced in early January and a limited supply has been shipped to retailers, the AP reports.
