What's the Deal with the G-Taste Girls Latex Replicas? (anime)

Whut? What toy would this be?

The aforementioned official licensed Harry Potter Nimbus 2000 Broom. A long, hard, vibrating plastic stick designed to be straddled. Take a magical ride!

A quick Google search on the name should turn up plenty of proof that the general public immediately noticed both the erotic possibilities and the potential for humor even if Mattel hadn’t. My own Googling just now indicates that the toy was indeed pulled from the market once Mattel realized what an embarassing situation they were in.
