A lot of questions begged but firstly - do they have permission for this?

But they are a charity and should respect copyright.

Stephen Hargreaves (nephew or son of Roger?) and Egmont Publishing (Egment?) (Manchester) still had control over the art last I heard.
I wonder if they've been involved in this.

There's no boundary they won't cross.

It’s a massive meme trend on social media at the moment.

I’ll be surprised if they do anything but I saw on another thread Sanrio own copyright (you learn something new everyday!)

It's a current trend that's not exclusive to trans issues.

It's a bit cringe tbh

I don't see the other examples and feel fine about them. It's horrid for adults to take a fun thing that belongs to children and subvert it. Mermaids could've just ignored it but no. They saw a boundary to trample over.
