Let's talk M2M (Made to Move) - A Rant

Dear Mattel,

What's going on with the M2M bodies? It's been a couple years now since they debuted but, far from the expectations of your market, they haven't shown up in all shades and colors. I say that to say...where is the M2M body for Rainbow Bright?????


You clearly don't know your adult collectors at all, seeing as how we like to be able to re-dress and pose our dolls and these stiff bodies you force on us don't make that easy to do.

Some of us have been creative and tried to repaint the Camping Fun AA Barbie in a darker shade while others just transplanted her head onto that body without repainting, trying to ignore the shade mismatch.



How far behind your market are you?? No wonder you're losing ground to other doll manufacturers!

And while we're on unavailability of made to move bodies, what is up with Orange Top?? She sold out faster than all the others so that scalpers are charging an arm and a leg for her now!! Have you forgotten that countless older dolls that you produced come in this shade??? Meanwhile, blue top and blue yoga top that match maybe 5 dolls between them are in endless supply.



Seriously, who is in charge over there at Mattel???? Can we say CLUELESS????!!!!
