I think we need to be aware of how our toys reflect an openness to other cultures and ethnic diversity.
Children play with these toys, people collect them, they read the catalog as their favorite book in their house. If they are not supporting cultural diversity, which they are, but, they could go farther, then that image will get imprinted, even a little, on the people that love and obsess about these dolls.
Being aware that another white doll is being relesed is not racist, being aware that their is only one asian doll is not rascist, being aware that american girl definately has a minority collection in their dolls is not racist. In fact, it is good to be aware of it. Through that awareness people can grow and companies can change. And the reflection of opness can be acheived.
