WOW! It looks like the toy industry is using MJ’s death as an opportunity to rake in some dough. Honestly, I think this is highly disrespectful. MJ with interchangeable heads?? How inappropriate! The man was an amazing and talented musician. He was already honored with a ceremony that was so large even he, himself, probably wouldn’t have approved of and now we are going to allow small children (because let’s face it this doll will probably end up in their hands) to change his head whenever they feel like doing so? GET OUT OF TOWN! THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. It’s wild stories like these that keep me filled with so much to say. I just recently fell in love with this show, Unfiltered, on Chat About It radio. I plan on calling in with this little tidbit tonight. Tune in sometime! 9-10PM on Wednesdays!
Those look cool! Thanks Linkwithin!
