Offical LEGO Friends Commercial

[Legobrandon]

LegoClubTV on YouTube just posted the new LEGO Friends commercial. To be honest, I think these sets look pretty good, and I would definitely purchase them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEbJQmiZlEk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Good to see that The Lego Group thinks that girls are only supposed to make cup cakes, do their hair and like ponies. :X

Agreed...and where are all the boys?

Olivia has an inventor workshop and a treehouse, both not standard "girlie" things.

I have two sons and I think they look like nice sets. I've had it up to here (gesturing as high as I can reach) with people giving LEGO grief for the Friends line. Boycotts, online petitions, calls for LEGO to pull the whole series...sheesh...madness. Save that nonsense for some company that doesn't offer such a wide array of toys that includes women and girls in all capacities. If you don't like what they offer, don't buy it. If you'd like to see a Friends set with something different, send them some suggestions.

I just think it looks silly and the commercial entirely negates the 'construction' aspect as well. It's more like 'Pastel Doll Houses, More Than 'Some' Assembly Required'. Ontop of that, the entire commercial feels fairly 'generic' in it's goal to plug a 'girls toy'.
