Littlest Pet Shop, that's who.
To Hasboro customer service via email:
Dear Sir or Madam,
The vintage Littlest Pet Shop toys are adorable, tiny, and fun to play with. The new line is filled with hideous, disfigured creatures with deformities such as enlarged head or eyes, misproportioned bodies, etc. Why did the design change? Do you think that these atrocities are somehow appealing to children? They come with very limited accessories and little/no theme to speak of in each so-called "playset". For my children I will be searching e-bay to find the toys of my childhood, as these current models are not worth the cheap plastic containers they are sealed in. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
A former customer of the Littlest Pet Shop line.
