Simply Best Gifts Online releases a controversial article titled “Review of Disney’s Musical Moana of Oceania Figure – Give it to Someone Else’s Kid?”
Simply Best Gifts Online has released a potentially controversial article "Review of Disney's Musical Moana of Oceania Figure - Give it to Someone Else's Kid? ", bringing some cause for concern, as the article may upset moms and dads who love the message of Moana but who also feel like if they hear the segment of her song one more time, very bad things will happen.
The 3 minute read examines the high points and low points of whether the delight this hot new toy will bring a child compensates for the ever-loving torture the ear worm will cause. The review provides insider advice from a mom who's seen the dark side of toys with built-in sound for parents of kids who love Moana. In somewhat typical manner though, this review not only hits the highlights of the gifts most likely to grace children's wish lists this year. It also gives parents a glimpse of why they might not want to choose this particular gift.
Below is a portion of the piece, which neatly exemplifies the controversial element:
"I think most parents will understand this. Really, all I’m asking for is a new Moana doll which sings more of the song than one short sentence. I hope Disney considers doing this because it would be a neat feature but more important it would cut down on the number of headaches and partial songs that get annoyingly stuck in your head."
A spokesperson for Simply Best Gifts Online, Chloe Anderson, says "Of course Simply Best Gifts Online never sets out to intentionally upset anybody. The aim of our articles is first and foremost to tell our readers about downsides most other reviewers won't admit. It is critical, however, that we stay dedicated to our true voice.
"Although our "Review of Disney's Musical Moana of Oceania Figure - Give it to Someone Else's Kid? " might unsettle moms and dads who love the message of Moana, we're sticking with our mission. We understand the feeling some parents get that if they hear the segment of her song one more time, very bad things will happen. We believe it's more important to let parents know what they're in for, before they wait in around-the-block lines for toys that will drive them to distraction, than to please everyone. Which is notoriously difficult to do."
Although there has been no backlash as of yet, the possibility exists as the article criticizes one key feature of what will be a super-popular toy in 2018.
Simply Best Gifts Online has stated the future aims for the website are to provide parents and grandparents with the information they need to buy gifts for the children they love... that won't also drive the adults nuts. So Simply Best Gifts Online hopes any controversy will pass quickly and re-emphasizes no offence is or was intended.
