My Lion King Forum

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that they made Lion King diapers? I mean, come on, this is a movie where the villain is killed by being torn limb by limb by hyenas and the villain convinces a little kid he killed his father after killing said father in a coup: best movie to market towards one-year olds!

I mean I don't mind it being targeted toward children but, come on, targeting it toward babies?

First rule of baby products--they're never for really for the babies, haha. If parents want to deck their kiddie out in Simba, frills, or tinfoil, that's all the parent's yen.

True but still it is kind of weird.

Though then again I've also seen Lion King thongs which is even weirder-who wants Lion King thongs?

Well besides some furries...

Is it weird that I'd totally buy TLK diapers for my kids? xD LOL

I do see your point though. I've seen the thongs on Ebay and I can't imagine why anyone would want those either.

AdAstra: No, that's not weird at all.

The thongs seem weird.

Parents buy all sorts of stupid stuff. They put muppets on kitchen roll, I mean, it's all about the decoration really. The baby doesn't care.
Lol no the thongs are just weird lol

Eww, thongs? xD Yeah....That does not....no.

Although I must go looking for that to see it now!

the thongs aren't official disney products, I've seen them before, they iron on the images, and you can put those images on pretty much anything. as for diapers, there are bunnies, and bears, and mickey and elmo and dora and so on and so forth. a lot of times especially during the hotter weather people have their babies in just a diaper, in fact it's encouraged by most parenting guides to give the child's skin some breathing once in awhile when they're running around in the house. so why not have a cute diaper? and really children over a year old Can pick out what they like, my daughter is 14 months and she clearly shows what excites her whether it be food, toys or clothes......lol plus, when you're the mommy and you change about 20 of them things a day (give or take) it doesn't hurt to have them have cute little characters on them lol, also telling you squirming child, here's your elmo diaper sometimes works to distract them enough that you can put the thing on them quickly.. I wouldn't go right to saying parents buy stupid stuff, buying cute things lightens the mood in the home. they bring smiles, they bring child-like pleasures that just didn't exist until you became a parent.

I know of at least one person who would spend every bit of cash they own on this very product.

*will say no more*

I hope we are back to talking about the baby products!
