Beales dept store are at it, here. Apparently tigers are for girls, and the Bambi-with-pink-hair-dye Pokémon, Deerling, is for boys.
Don't ask us, we're just reporting.
We think children can decide for themselves what toys they want to play with without retailers encouraging them to conform to old-fashioned stereotypes. If a girl wants to play with Lego or Transformers or Batman, or a boy wants to play with Hello Kitty or My Little Pony or Batgirl, there's no reason to make them feel that they're making the wrong choice as defined by what's between their legs.
