Breaking Bad Dolls Spark Online Petition
http://media.skynews.com/media/image...-1-942x530.jpg
I just bought this fella on amazon UK costing in total £15:19 [A mum campaigns to get the action figures pulled from Toys R Us, saying they are "unsuitable to be sold alongside Barbie dolls".] I say Sexy Barbie may like a Hard Man next to her http://news.sky.com/story/1356927/br...nline-petition |
I don't personally understand why Toys R' Us would stock Breaking Bad items, not many kids would be interested in it and it's target audience would be more likely to pick it up from Collector shops and such.
Starting a petition is pretty pointless though. The item will likely be discontinued in their stores if it doesn't sell a certain amount anyway. |

In America that Hard Man Doll is for Lads The Barbie is for the girls I am glad she did this Petition as it made me Buy this Doll for my Desk, it made me want one - because of her Life In The Fast Lane |
I wouldn't say it's any more harmful to the development of young minds than Action Man's army of weapons, or Barbie's ridiculous ideas of beauty.

I'm surprised that it would be sold at Toys R Us. Seems like a really young age group to target the product at. I would be surprised if any kids under 11 have ever watched or seen Breaking Bad, even boys. The actual figurine though is no worse than Action Man holding a gun.
Petition is pointless. Petitions seem to be the answer for anything these days, they never lead to anything unless there's an overwhelming amount of signatures, which in this case it is very unlikely to get many. |
I had a Robocop toy (with riot van) as a kid, lol. I don't see the issue.

Maybe ToysR Us are selling to everyone. That Petition got it live on USA TV News so its growing. I would like to see it debated on Ch4HD News |
I loved action figures like that when I was wee and I would sit and fight them for ages before either cutting them up with a knife, burying them or setting them on fire.
Never did me any harm. All information above is true save the last line |
Arista did you buy one?
why? |
