Slave Leia furor

[DiFabio]

Wait. Why is the dad in the store with his iPhone filming right in the aisle? The video starts with him just filming randomly in the aisle, then his girls pass by the aisle and after like a second they act shocked and ask "what is this". Of course he is right there and checks it out . . . with his camera. Huh?

Seems staged to me. What did he do, call up the local news station, give them a video and say "this offends me"? I don't get it, how is that taken seriously. I didn't get the Breaking Bad thing either. These toys are harmless and stupid. If they get under people's skin then man, they must not have lives.

Nevermind, I see what this is.






Some big publicity for the Force Awakens push.

This is why i hate society and most people in general.

Maybe they just need to show her in this context...



Now she is just superfluous girl in bikini without chain. Except the other is the empowering, strong princess. I think someone else showed other scantily clad Disney princesses in another thread... all these self righteous overly offended people need to take a look at what is going on in the world. This is nothing to waste their whining on.

I believe this is the first time that Hasbro used the term "slave" in the figure's name. It has always previously been something like "Jabba's Prisoner." Because the 6" Black Series is meant to be primarily for older collectors they probably thought it was okay.

It's true though - It's a just woman in a sci-fi bikini. Not sure what is so offensive. Princess Jasmine wore an only slightly less revealing bikini type top and she's kid oriented.

Grab any 'Slave' Leia figure with a chain around her neck now because they won't last long.

Thread not locked yet? Sheesh! Slackers.

 

[preeny101]

How about fervor?

Maybe Dad was upset because after seeing the figure the daughter wanted a neck chain?

Kerfluffle is a personal favorite.

 

[crows]

did a really quick search on target.com
toys in stores that NO one has said crap about










how come there is no outrage?

I said this before... at least be freaking consistent, be consistent, Ban ALL swimsuit toys then stupid hypocrites

So yeah, this just recently popped up. Coincidence?
















Really wouldn't surprise me if this was all Disney's doing. For what I don't know.

For some reason I can't see the vid, but if ONE guy is complaining, how are PARENTS in a furor?

because the news channel got the toy and showed it to a bunch of parents and all of them agreed with the guy... plus the comments from people online

 

[EVILFACE]

Action figure of a almost naked Big Green Muscleman in torn purple pants = OK

Action figure of a chick in a bikini with a leash = Aw Hell Naw


And uggg, Amy Schumer. Queen of the unfunny.

i like how she is racist as hell in her humor but everyone is defending her now just because she's a young, pretty feminist lol.

A lot of comics tell racists jokes. They are the few left that can get away with not being PC.

they used to, but they are starting to get crap for it, well, except her. She's being defended by all the people that would otherwise get offended by racist jokes, that's the irony.

 

[Mr. Green]

We live in the information age.....so much useless info/news.

 

[Mr Walker]

Meh, just another clown looking for something to be outraged about.
