uberdorkgirlie: Dear Lego, This is the amazing ad you did in 1981. Yet today you come up with an entire new line full of pink and fluff marketed strictly toward girls. Because we supposedly can’t relate to legos as is. Guess what? My 6 and 7 year old girls saw the giant ad for them at the store the other day. Their response “What the what?? There are dolls out there already- if they wanted to upgrade why didn’t they make Chewbacca have some fur, Harry Potter have a real nose like that to hold up his glasses or HELLO GIVE US MORE WONDER WOMAN.” Get back to your roots. Remember- fun and play has nothing to do with shapes or colors. That was the beauty of legos- you had to use your imagination. Now the dollhouse will come built for you? For shame. Sincerely, A Sad Mommy
