that was a scum move yeah. but I don't know if it counts as stealing it .. also the German doll was a doll from an adult comic strip in a newspaper, it wasn't particularly for children
Why wouldn't it ?
We talking legally or morally? Because legally, if the toy wasn't registered, trademarked, w/e in the US then they did nothing legally wrong.
It's definitely a dick move to just copy someone's product and sell it as your own though.
because they were different markets ? and different products for different target demographics? idk
Am not sure but it was a doll made for kids by a toy manufacturer they copied not an adult kink thing or something. Sot it's the same product, same demographic.
