If you watched various tots in your family open various packages holding various dolls over the holidays, you may have had a moment or two where you felt a tad... jealous?

Or at least you may have spent some time reminiscing about your own days loving legendary dolls such as Barbie, that icon of icons.

But your Barbie-playful past can live again, in fresh ways, thanks to the appearance of an all-new pop-up Barbie truck.

If the pink-laden, on-the-go vehicle has you thinking about the Hello Kitty Cafe Truck that sometimes visits Southern California shopping centers, you're definitely on the right track, er, truck: The Barbie Pop Up Truck was created by the very same people.

You can visit it, and perhaps pick up some exclusive Barbie merchandise, on Saturday, Jan. 11 at the Glendale Galleria. Or will you be near the Westfield Valencia Town Center on Saturday, Jan. 18?

You'll be in luck if you'd like to see the truck.
