Coming as a surprise to noone but Hasbro the answer is NO!
Bowing to pressure, Hasbro said today it will not be releasing its planned line of scantily-clad "*****cat Dolls" figures this fall.
Outraged parents started a letter campaign to Hasbro, better known for Play-Doh and Weebles, expressing their anger over the company's plan to market the "blatantly eroticized dolls," according to the Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood. The CCFC commended the company on the decision to pull the plug.
I don't see why the PCD are popular in the first place. There's like half a dozen of those heifers and I've only ever seen one singing (if you want to call it that) solo and certainly not well. Even Beyonce let the other girls get a line to themselves every now and then. Regardless of their unwarranted pop star status why did Hasbro think the dolls would be a good idea? The target audience of the dolls is 6-9 year old girls, not the horny old men that the burlesque-esque group appeals to.
