What if a "Brown" person or Polynesian kid wanted the costume?


Finally a costume for non-whites and they pull it? Who are these people saying it was racist? And they have to hire Dwayne The Rock Johnson just because of his skin color or else Polynesians would've gone mad? Frankly The Rock is in every other film and even if his movie is available free on Netflix I just scroll away.

It's so dumb. Costume tattoo sleeves are readily available for purchase. No one ever called those racist.

Except for the fact that you're not dressing up as the ethnicity, you're dressing up as the character.

They pull it because people complained about the costume.

Good point. My kids are brown and it's *beep* impossible to find toys or costumes that look like them
