Maker of Barbie creates Nessie doll

Recommended Posts

The toymaker behind Barbie has created a new doll inspired by the Loch Ness Monster myth.

Lorna McNessie is one of the latest additions to Mattel's Monster High, a range of characters that also includes zombies, ghosts and werewolves.

She is described as the daughter of the Loch Ness Monster and is from Rotland - Monster High's version of Scotland.

As a ginger I can firmly say that doll is not representative of my people. She does not have enough freckles but does have too much soul.

As a Scotsman without freckles or a ginger napper, i say.... is nothing sacred, you money-grubbing gits?

She's our cash-cow, not yours!

Gingers are so picked on at grade schools, they are (literally) an anagram of the "N-word", another group of people picked on (even worse). Doll makers like Mattel want to encourage good, healthy self-esteem for girls, so they make dolls representing many groups of people: Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, even transgender and wheelchair-bound. What about a plus-size or big-boned doll? HELLO? Is Matter accused of promoting false, unhealthy body image expectations for girls? YEAH.

Monster High? I'm so out of the loop... :(

My mind asks: So... her parents are a Scot and a r**ing&pillaging Nessie?

Probably why I didn't get the job when I applied at Mattel.

They got the skin tone right for a Scot.

The design just looks like a mashup between the Lagoona and dragon dolls they already have.
