I mean, people got upset about the first wave Clawdeen shaving mention (which made no sense).

It's just as a valid complain as are the non-articulated killer heel feet.So before you just call anything that criticizes MH "stupid", learn about the context first
It would be interesting to see like a horse and demon dolls

Especially not characters that could be interpretetd as "satanic". That would be the downfall of the brand. After all it's still a playline product for kids and not a collectors item for adults.Cupid and the three-eyed ghoul CAM came the closest to an angel and a goddess.
