Not OP, but there is a lot of bad blood between Barbie and Lammily factions over the fact that Lammily marketed almost entirely by blasting Barbie.

Personally Lammily pisses *me* off because her body shape is just as unlikely for me as Barbie's is for anyone else. And therefore declaring her the perfect example of the average woman I feel like they're telling me that my body type (short and skinny) is freakish. and I need to step aside because Real Woman Have Curves

I think the different is (or is supposed to be) that Lammily has a body that is *possible* where Barbie's old body was literally not something that could be achievable by a human person.

I don't think either should be brought out as representative of *everyone*. When you have one doll mold, that's impossible. For Lammily proposing the idea of multiple dolls on the first run may have been too costly (keep in mind that before all the attention, this was someone with nowhere near the money or resources of Barbie.)

That's why I think the new Barbie line of several dolls is a good thing. But I don't think it needs to KILL Lammily if people really want Lammily, like I said, I think the Barbie line is cuter and I don't like Lammily myself but I'm not going to wish something gone just because I'm not into it.

I think the coolest thing about Lammily is the sticker marks. Acne, freckles, scars, bruises, cellulite, and now underwear and menstrual pads! That's fucking awesome. Real people have that, so why not a fashion doll?

... because it's a fashion doll and it's not supposed to be real? It's basically just supposed to be a vehicle for the millions of outfits.

DA I don't know if "it isn't real" is a great argument against making something more realistic. A doll can have all the things anon above mentioned and still have 5 million outfits.

Even Barbie is based on reality to a certain extent, it's not like she's supposed to be some alien.

It's fine to enjoy the fantasy of Barbie but some people may like a different type of doll. Everyone is different, this is true for kids as well.

So why make her humanoid at all? Why not give us a purple-skinned, three-legged thing with cute dresses?

Monster High needs a three legged doll!
