In Toys “R” Us, horses and horses with riders were obviously created for girls. The horse figurines had stereotypically feminine colors, along with hearts, on the blankets and bridles of the horses. The horse with riders were all girls, except the warriors on horseback who wielded a huge sword and were hyper-masculine. In the aisles that featured dress up items, the girls had princess costumes and the military and S.W.A.T. costumes were in bags that had photos of only boys wearing those outfits. In the section that housed trains, only one box had a girl on it and that train set had a pink train, pink castle, pink horse, pink carriage, and a princess dressed in a pink ball gown. Toys still favor a more stereotypical toy for boys and girls; girls have the pink and princess, while boys get heroes and blue and gray
