Mattel shareholders obviously have been giving their misguided Board an earful. If I held their stock, I would be SELLING.

Mattel is "dependent on Chinese industrial capacity for its toys," said Eric Johnson, a management professor at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth, who has studied the toy industry's migration to China. "They have significant investment of their own capital" in the country "and don't want to lose it.

You got that right and that's why Mattel has to Keep on Trucklin' to Chi-Coms. Insulting the heroic leaders of the peoples of the freedom-loving democratic Peoples' Republic of China is punishable by no more cheap labor and the loss of all investment. After that, the toys will be made by Maotel.

Keep on truckling, useful idiots.

This whole apology thing reminds me of the taped “confessions” of our GI POW’s during the Korean and Vietnam wars.

I have a question - Mattel changed its accusations from blaming China, to design flaws. So Mattel included Lead in their designs?

And they designed an overall unsafe product?

Nice... Mattel- go to...

Parents that do not buy chinese made products for their children love their children more than those that do.
