Mattel loses suit against Barbie mod artist
Mattel lost its lawsuit against British artist Susanne Pitt, who created and sold "Dungeon Dolls" with Superstar Barbie heads attached to voluptuous doll bodies dressed in S&M gear. The judge argued that Pitt's dolls were not "a market substitute for Barbie dolls. To the court's knowledge, there is no Mattel line of S&M Barbie." More and more. No pictures of Dungeon Dolls in any of these stories, and Pitt's site is apparently offline.
