Why did Mattel stop making the becky barbie (wheelchair barbie)?
I have been reading that the Becky barbie was so popular that they couldn’t make them fast enough and that Mattel was even considering creating an entire line of barbies with disabilities. I’m just wondering whatever happened to this idea?
I don’t know but I had one when I was little because I had just gotten a surgery (because I have spina bifida) and I had to be in a wheelchair for about a month and it was great seeing a barbie just like me. It wasn’t mocking at all (so are the normal ones mocking normal people?haha) I really wish they would make those again for other handicapped kids.
