Recently, my sibling informed me of something suspicious on eBay...

That doesn't look like the Winx Club to me, or am I crazy? icon_mrgreen.gif
In my opinion, it looks like a typical "Dollar Store" rip off (we've seen those before), but what strikes me is how blatant it is (they're actually using the logo, images, etc...)

My questions are: Have they been given permission to do this? What company is this? If they were not given the rights to the material, how are they getting away with it?


(Note: I am not in any way shape or form criticizing the eBay seller - I'm under the perception, after reading their description of the item, that they have no idea as to whether or not it is legit. Therefore, do not, I repeat, do not let this discourage you from being a potential customer.)

...Completely forgot that. *folds*

Plus, she's got Flora's hair. I never thought an intra-Winx mash-up could turn out so bad.

Not to mention Bloom's and Layla's doll has over-sized red sneakers... The outfits seem scary... DX

xD Another thing that is funny is the fact that they made Winx outfits out of Mattel's "Singsational" outifts:
"Flora" is wearing Stella's "Singsational"
"Tecna" is wearing Bloom's
"Layla" is wearing Flora's

Fun!
