A new-ish barbie has been placed on the shelves of stores everywhere.
I just happened to be in the toy section of a store when I noticed a few Barbies labeled in a suggestive manner.
I know that they are merchandise promoting Toy Story VII... but I'm pretty sure there's another message going on here...


Exhibit A: Barbie Loves BUZZ

Someone at Mattel really dropped the ball on this one.

"I do not know if you remember the tale of the girl who saves the ship under mutiny by sitting on the powder barrel with her lighted torch and all the time knowing that it is empty? This has seemed to me a charming image of the women of my time. There they were, keeping the world in order by sitting on the mystery of life, and knowing themselves that there was no mystery."
