I have mentioned the new Mattel line before, but i just had a click about this today. I think Mattel is trying to get more and more to the "real girl world". The company recently released a African - American of Barbie dolls that actually brings more authenticity for what they represent.
"The dolls, which are part of the "So In Style" line have "fuller lips, a wider nose, more distinctive cheek bones and curlier hair," according to the world's biggest toymaker."http://www.nw32.com/news/ktla-black-barbies,0,5528964.story
That's great to have a business trying to work on the diversity/inclusion"So in Style celebrate the diversity of African-American Girls and
encourage positive themes" (Mattel)
discussion. We have to agree that everyone is different and with globalization we
do deal with a LOT different backgrounds. Way to go :-)
