When I was growing up, things were certainly different. What was considered “risqué” is now commonplace. It’s sad but true.
Nowadays, toys are nearly living nightmares. I am glad some of these were not around when I was growing up – makes me think twice about what I give my kids for sure! Take a look…
Babies giving birth to babies!

We won’t even get into the thought of how a baby got pregnant…what act would be necessary AND what part of health class they forgot (try the pituitary gland). Bad idea all around.
The Fuhrer – really?

Skipper gets boobs

To Matte’s credit, Skipper was always flat as a board. And then Barbie had a super huge bust – there was no in between. The alarming part here is that one can “Make her grow from a young girl to a teenager in seconds!” and she’s “twice as much fun.” The false timeline for boob growth and implication that only with boobs is someone fun is not a good plan.

Well there’s always something to aspire to!

Would love to see what messages they are including in the DVD…unbelievable.

It may be a tad too early for this…
Barbie gets pregnant
![07_Pic07](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/07_Pic0757.jpg)
Interesting concept but might bring adult topics up too early in life.
Uh…no

So the diaper fits both the baby and the monkey…hmmm
Oreo Barbie
![09_Pic09](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/09_Pic0958.jpg)
Is there a Nilla Wafer Barbie too? How about Cheez-It Barbie or Red Hot Barbie?
Hmmm…

Couldn’t come up with a different shape?
Penis Gummy-things

Great for a bachelorette party – not for my kids! Hello?
The Avenging Narwhal?
![12_Pic12](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/12_Pic1246.jpg)
And what is he avenging? How could a sea creature have anything to avenge on land (koala?)? Narwhals also hang out in the north pole area – Greenland, Russia, etc. Last I checked, penguins dwell mostly in Antarctica (far South America, South Africa and Galapagos Islands excluded).
The Water Weenie

So it’s basically a super condom?
Wolverine
![14_Pic14](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/14_Pic1445.jpg)
Nice placement.
The Punisher
![15_Pic15](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/15_Pic1542.jpg)
Rapist/Super Hero? It’s a confusing message.
Oh Pooh!
![16_Pic16](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/16_Pic1642.jpg)
Not you too!
Lego Prison Camp
![17_Pic17](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/17_Pic1737.jpg)
Now where was that Hitler doll?
The Face Bank
![18_Pic18](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/18_Pic1835.jpg)
If banks only had faces!! Creepy!
Mouse/Demon Doll
![19_Pic19](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/19_Pic1930.jpg)
Strange…
Jolly Chimp?
![20_Pic20](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/20_Pic2031.jpg)
Eyes bulge, teeth flash – yikes!
Mr. Buttons
![21_Pic21](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/21_Pic2130.jpg)
Looks weird – like he’s gonna steal your teeth!
Ah, umm…
![22_Pic22](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/22_Pic2225.jpg)
Nope.
Ewoks gone bad?
![23_Pic23](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/23_Pic2325.jpg)
We’re not sure what these are – but there’s a bone sticking out and faces are melting. Next!
Oh great – ET’s “finger”
![24_Pic24](https://www.strongmindbraveheart.com/wp-content/uploads/24_Pic2424.jpg)
And it lights up! Looks like another type of “toy” for folks much older than 4.
