Bratz, what can be considered a cartoon-ified off shoot of the famous improportionate doll, causes a hassel for it's creator Carter Bryant. It's no surprise that the creator of Bratz lives a life just as dramatic as those of his creations. Cat-Fight: Barbie vs. Bratz.

The maker of Barbie dolls, Mattel, has argued that it should own the
rights to Barbie's younger rivals, the popular Bratz dolls range.

The toy giant argued at the start of a court case that the 10-inch
characters were created by a former employee while he was still working
for Mattel.

It wants competitor MGA Entertainment to stop selling Bratz products.

But MGA contends that Carter Bryant came up with the Bratz designs when not working for Mattel.
