I do not quite get the difference of having sword, axe, bows and arrows, and cannons as oppose to cowboy revolvers, repeater rifles and the current small fire-arms, rifles and submachine guns?
They are all schedule weapons promoting violence aren't they?
BTW, Lego has the Starwars series and in that series they have laser blasters and photon cannons... Nevermind guns.
I guess its the duty of the parents who teach their children the value of these lethal tools and the dangers of their misuse rather than totally not exposing them at all.
Playmobil not making toys with guns or whatnot isn't gonna make your environment a safer place is it?
Playmobil is a business afterall and as consumers, we have a choice and if you do not agree with some of the themes because of your own believe. I am definitely sure that there are also plenty of wholesome themes.
I personally grew up playing plastic toys soldiers and army men from WWII (who didn't) and my earliest history lessons from my Dad about WWII came from those toys. Isn't it a little unfair to deprive the next generation the same toys and learning experience we had growing up?
So just because I only started here not too long ago means my argument is automatically pointless and hence void?
Well, you may have six thousand more posts than I do but that does not say anything about your maturity does it?
