A few years ago they took out Austin Powers toys because it said horny. How the times have changed. I think this meth ish is indeed overboard.
Exactly. If it's truly appalling or immoral enough it'll hurt then in sales a few months down the road. As it stands? I doubt they lose a single cent because a few moms are offended.
and this is the free market at work. Their main target bread and butter audience are soccer moms who will go and pay $30 for a toy thats only $20 on Amazon. If the soccer moms don't want it there, guess what it's not gonna stay there.
Now they can deflate their outrage boners. What a win for family values! https://tv.yahoo.com/news/toys-r-us-pulls-breaking-bad-dolls-225343782.html I want to buy one now.
I had no idea these toys were out there until I heard the angry mom story yesterday. I immediately went to the Toys R Us on Bunker Hill to get my hands on a couple, but the display was empty - either sold out or pulled from the shelves. I was gonna get two of each, one for collection and an extra to play with. I love being an adult.
I can't wait until Bryan Cranston shows up at Susan Schrivjer's house and tells her that he is the one who knocks.
