Barbie Winz!

Filed under: Legal Matters

barbiewinz.jpg

We mentioned last month that Barbie's parent company, Mattel, went to court for control of the Bratz doll empire.

Well, on Thursday Mattel was declared the winner of the ownership case.

The billion dollar Bratz franchise may be in the hands of Barbie soon!

The Barbie folks were able to prove to the jury that the guy who 'created' Bratz was properly under contract at Mattel when he 'birthed' the dolls, so the ho dolls 'rightfully' belong to them.

Lessons learned — read/understand your employment contracts well, y'all!

Big busine$$ takes no prisoners!

    i kind of prefer barbie due to years of bias. this is what i grew up on. the bratz dolls look like aliens to me. just plain freaky.
    on the other hand, i should be the corporate giant hating liberal, and the creator of the bratz dolls is a tiny david who dared to go against the establishment. but still, i looove barbie, no matter how deformed she looks herself.

  15. 15

    Always knew Barbie played dirty!……

  16. 16

    I was going to say perhaps mattel could de-skankify bratz.. but based off that picture of bondage barbie you posted… sigh… well, I'd pick healthy sexual curiosity barbie over ghetto ho bratz anyway.

  17. 17

    What? What a bunch of greedy ho-bags!
    Just let someone else have their own success for once!

    It's monopoly. Mattel always wins. Mattel has connection to politicians and people in high places.

    How come all the afro american barbies have long straight hair? Shouldn't they have corn rows or braids? Just sayin.

    who cares??
    those doll's just remind me of miniature miley cyrus's and vanessa hundgens.
    they're just mini whores, but that are made of plastic.

    Who the fuck lets their daughter play with these trashy, whore bag sperm dumpster dolls? Barbie has a career, a house, a car, a man. Bratz have what? Slutty clothes and clown makeup?

    Bratz are 2 dollar crack whores.. but why the hell does mattel want to take away business of someone? Greedy bitches just jealous of competition…

  23. 23

    Mattel did not win, not by a LONG SHOT. MATTEL DID NOT WIN Luv ya Mr H but there is still a long way to go before they can be called winners in anything..

    This is a monopoly indeed. Mattel is trying to screw their competition in any way possible. Whatever they suck. Working for them is hell- a sweatshop, and Bob Eckert and Mattel is a white supremasist company that will let nothing get in their way. KARMA!

    BARBIE WINS

    Bratz dolls are ugly and deformed.

    "“Most importantly, the verdict issued today does NOT entitle Mattel to any rights
    whatsoever of Bratz,” said Nolan, lead trial lawyer for MGA. “The verdict merely
    determined that certain drawings by Carter Bryant were created while he worked
    at Mattel.” "
    From the news, they have no rights at all and did not come close to winning the Bratz People post headlines that mislead, sorry Mattel you haven't won. :)

    Intellectual property laws, people. Look it up. Mattel won fair and square. The Bratz line was developed due to an idea that originated in the course of the guy's employement at Mattel. I'm sure he signed a big old contract when he began working there. This is why you should always read before you sign.

    And also, I hope those skanky ho dolls are quickly yanked from production.

    "MGA points out that Mattel is only suing MGA regarding the “first generation” of
    BratzTM dolls that were issued in 2001. “Under no circumstance will Mattel be
    able to assert ownership of the Bratz franchise – which will always belong to
    MGA,” Larian said. “Our customers, retailers, vendors, and suppliers can take
    comfort in knowing that there will be no disruption in MGA’s manufacturing and
    sales of Bratz dolls or any other products,” Larian said. "

    I hate those Bratz dolls, we throw them in the garbage can if someone gives one as a birthday present. We don't even bother giving them to charity. They would probably be a bad influence on the kid who plays with it. All they would learn is how to look like a $5.00 hooker.

    Bratz are disgusting and so are the scumbags who buy them for their children. I hope Mattel burns down the Bratz factory and warehouse.

    Oh Please. Mattel stole the idea for Barbie from a German sex toy doll. By their reasoning, I guess the inventor of that doll could be rich as hell then by suing Mattel for stealing *his* idea.

    barbie destroyed american ideals.
    bratz reinforced ghetto stereotypes.
    both dolls suck and should never been put on
    shelves for impressionable girls to play with.
