We collected <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/03/the-baddest-hot-wheels-race-ever-created/">Hot Wheels</a> and Matchboxes, and we had model cars and remote-controlled hot rods. The one thing those toys have in common is that they're marketed almost exclusively to boys.<br /><br />Mattel has decided to give the girls what they've wanted all along: race tracks, pink cars that go shopping, and a great way to compete. Earlier we gave you an <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/04/new-york-auto-show-polly-wheels-gives-young-girls-their-own-lin/">extensive debriefing</a> on Polly Wheels, complete with an <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/polly-wheels/">Autoblog Gallery</a>, and now we're adding video, too. Check out the Autoblog interview with Stephanie Cota, Vice President of girls marketing at Mattel. There is also some exclusive footage of a prototype Polly Wheels Race Track in action. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/06/video-polly-wheels-to-spark-auto-interest-for-the-gals/">Check it out!</a><p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/06/video-polly-wheels-to-spark-auto-interest-for-the-gals/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>VIDEO: Polly Wheels to spark auto-interest for the gals</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/06/video-polly-wheels-to-spark-auto-interest-for-the-gals/">VIDEO: Polly Wheels to spark auto-interest for the gals</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Fri, 06 Apr 2007 20:33:00 EST.
