(Anonymous) 2016-01-31 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)But that's probably also why Mattel did it, this isn't the first time they've changed the Barbie mold, it's just the first time they've had so many different ones all at once and they full intend to make money off of it. Even if they had not done it this way, they'd figure out another way to get people to buy as many dolls and outfits as possible.
It's not going to FORCE anyone to buy more though, old Barbie will still be available, and parents can always choose a body type they want to buy and only buy accessories for that body type, or if their kids are interested more in the dolls then the clothes, they could sacrifice the amount of accessories to buy a more diverse doll collection.
Honestly Barbie was always trying to sell people as much shit as possible so I don't think this will suddenly put people in the poor house. It should ideally, give consumers more options rather then being stuck with the same doll in different outfits.
