Although denied by Try Dolls Inc, the company responsible for creating Sasha & Malia dolls that in any way the dolls are named after Obama daughters, the dolls look very much like Obama daughters. Do you think it is wrong for a company to make Sasha Obama and Malia Obama Dolls? Why?

    I dont think it matters plus the dolls look nothing like them.

    Michelle Obama didn't approve of it. A company cannot create anything on anyone’s name because it has a selling potential. The revenue is not going to the charity. Companies need to understand the extent to which they can cash people's names.

    They are not "Sasha" and "Malia" dolls, they are just dolls named Sasha and Malia. They don't even look like the girls and they came out long before the presidential elections took place...Unfounded rumor...not cool.

      So you think it's a coincidence?

      It could be, could be not. We don't know all the facts, but either way I don't think it matters much.

    Actually the maker of the dolls said that she had Sasha and Malia obama in mind when she made the dolls, now she is trying to back away from her comment.

    Either way I still dont think it matters

      Yeah, one needs to be very careful, especially when a marketing tactic backfires.

      Very careful...especially when the President of the United States is involved.

    Coincidence or not, they bear little resemblance to the Obama girls.
