Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
Mattel designs, manufactures, and markets a broad variety of toy products worldwide, which are sold to its customers and directly to consumers.
Segment Data
Mattel's reportable segments are: (i) North America, which consists of the United States and Canada; (ii) International; and (iii) American Girl. The North America and International segments sell products across categories, although some products are developed and adapted for particular international markets.
In February 2024, Mattel announced an organizational change that American Girl will become part of Mattel's North America commercial organization and, as a result, American Girl will no longer be an operating segment. Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, Mattel is expected to have two reportable segments, North America and International.
The following tables present information regarding net sales, operating income, depreciation and amortization, and assets by segment. The corporate and other expense category includes operating costs not allocated to individual segments, including charges related to incentive and share-based compensation, corporate headquarters functions managed on a worldwide basis, the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on intercompany transactions, and certain severance and other restructuring costs. It is impracticable for Mattel to present net sales by categories, brands, or products, as trade discounts and other allowances are generally recorded in the financial accounting systems by customer.
