Jolly July Justifications

They look nice to me, but I wish they had done the curves thing that Lego does on their female minifigs, as I think it would capture her shape more.

I'm personally really glad that they didn't do this for 2 reasons:

1) It would make it more difficult for Hasbro to reuse the same mould-parts for other characters (unless they made more female Kre-O TFs).

2) I'm not a big fan of the female Lego Friends figures as they project this body image stereotype onto young girls. The standard Lego figure is androgenous^androgynous so it can work with either males or females, I don't see the need to have feminised Lego figures... especially when they don't make masculinised male Lego figures for superheros etc. Lego Batman and Spider-Man look like the standard androgenous body shape instead of having ripping pecs etc. :/ Also, part of the appeal of Lego figures to me is having a variety of characters using the standard androngeous^androgynous body shape! Changing it feels like 'cheating' to me.
