They didn't even bother to change the skin tone on the hand.
That's a terrible shop.

o_o Massive corporate fail. I mean, I'm sure there aren't quite as many African Americans in Poland, but I don't think they're all white. :gonk:

Well they probably did it to try to relate more the the audience that is looking at it. Same thing with the bible. If you have an american one jesus looks more like a white guy, if you get a spanish one jesus has the image of the mexican.
